`Old Glory` is flying high over a Four State community tonight. A flag raising and memorial dedication was held in Neosho today. A 120 foot pole is now supporting a 30 by 50 foot American flag. A large crowd was on hand for the dedication ceremony. Southwest Missouri Congressman Roy Blunt served as guest speaker for the event. The project is the work of the Neosho Exchange Club. Many residents and business leaders in the Neosho community helped raise money to buy the flag. The flag will fly 24/7 and will be properly lit during the evening. Reported By: Jim Jackson
