Friends, <BR> Since we're on the Penn Station
topic, I wanted to add a little known fact fo local interest. One of
the 16 eagles from the main Penn Station entrance pediments is
located near the end zone at the football field of Hampden-Sydney College near
Farmville, Va. Log on to <A title=http://www.shorpy.com/node/299
