Barbara you are 2 for 2 today!
Frisco is a city in Texas. San Francisco is the city that Mr. Widmer swam to from Alcatraz.

I would NEVER call San Francisco Frisco, even if I didn't have room in a headline. I almost complained to my editor when I saw it, but I am pretty sure he did it because there wasn't room for San Francisco, and I didn't want to make his life any harder than it already is. But I will fix it, so none of need to continue to be bothered by it!
