Glenn Selby of Burnips, Salem Township, was mentioned last month in a “Bygone Days” entry from 75 years ago. In the July 2, 1945, edition of Life Magazine, he appeared in a full-=page photo operating a caterpillar bulldozer on Guam near the end of World War II in the Pacific Theatre. The caption said “Machine Age Changes Isle.” Townbroadcast Editor David T. Young interviewed Selby in 1987. The edition and photo was supplied by Rebecca Furlong.
