Carl Slaugh, who served for five years as Iola’s city administrator and another five years as a city councilman, died last week at the age of 77. Funeral services are Friday. The Utah native embarked on a 20-year military service, a stint that put him in Germany when the Berlin Wall fell in 1989. He retired from the Air Force in 1993, and eventually began a career in city administration. He served four years as city administrator in Hiawatha and three more in Basehor, before coming to Iola in 2011.
