Summary

The February 1973 Beaver Beacon reported Perry Gatliff, Donald Cole, and Dick LaFreniere as $25 Michigan Lottery weekly winners, and the March issue corrected the list to include Clifford Napont and June DeRosia.

Evidence and limits

The record preserves the newspaper notice only; it does not establish ticket details, the later drawing outcome, or a complete list of winners.
