What was the name of the corner store on 15th street and the street where East End is? That was a good store as a kid. Tons of candy and a pinball machine!
OK - it's been quite a few years, and I may have it confused with another store that was on PA Avenue near 14th Street, but was it Heberlings?
Or "Hikese's" (spelling?). And a couple of those names mentioned by djBigDawg in another post: (Mikes Cut-Rate and especially Harpster's store) sound about right.
Also, if I am not mistaken, the variety store on Columbia Avenue to the left of East End (facing it) changed names sometime in the 70s - so there could be more than one correct answer. Didn't one of the Aults families own or run it at one time, or at least have a family member (Mike) that worked there?
And every time a certain kid went in there, they used to call the police station and say "that little Banks HEATHEN is in here again, get a cruiser heading this way..."
