Place commas where needed.
7) While I was researching skate
boards, I found an interesting, old newspaper story.
8) In the June 29, 1999, edition of the Mercury, there was an article on skateboarding.
9) Some scientists in San Francisco, California, filmed skateboarders in action.
All are right.
Thanks Ms. Sue! :D
