Former postmaster subject of federal bill

A federal law pending in the United State House of Representatives could give retired Marshall postmaster Mike Schragg the honor of a lifetime. Introduced Aug. 3 by 7th District U.S. Rep. Tim Walberg, H.R. 3446 would designate the historic Marshall post office at 202 E. Michigan Avenue the Michael W. Schragg Post Office Building if passed in 2007 - the last year a federal building can be named after living individuals. Schragg owns and operates the country's second largest postal museum (second only to the Smothsonian) in the basement of the Marshall post office. See the Aug. 18 Chronicle for a complete report.
