Ruth & Scott Newhall
Former Signal Owners
Oct. 12, 1991: (From left) Scott and Ruth Newhall, former owners of The Signal newspaper, are honored at College of the Canyons' "Silver Spur" fund-raising dinner. In this photograph, their son, Skip Newhall, is presenting them with a phony plaque from the "City of Valencia" a spoof on the seal of the city of Santa Clarita. When the community of Valencia was new and Scott was editor of The Signal, reporters referred to the Santa Clarita Valley as the "Valencia Valley." The name didn't stick.
