Hitting it big

Wallace and Jerri Jones, Nevada, seated at the table, hit it lucky Wednesday afternoon at J. T. Maloney's. The two purchased a Keno ticket from Alan Sheppard and less than an hour later were celebrating their windfall of $10,000. "It came at a very good time for us," said Jerri. "My father-in-law is having surgery and this will really help with the bills." She also said she had a hard time believing their good fortune. "When I looked at the numbers I wasn't sure I was seeing right so I had my husband look. I mean -- we never win anything."
