    The Pentagram News, one of several newspapers that were precursors to today's Pentagram newspaper, was billed as an "independent newspaper" and was published weekly from 1949 to 1971 before being replaced by the MDW Post. Today's Pentagram is derived from two Greek words: "Pente," meaning "five," and "Gramma," meaning something written, drawn or otherwise noted. (Newspaper courtesy of Kim Holien)
