TODAY is the birthday of Virgilio Atega Sr., the wartime mayor of Cabadbaran during the Japanese occupation. A young historian Casey Vi Tolentino Batitang wrote "Virgilio was someone who risked his life for Cabadbaran by pretentiously cooperating with the Japanese. He also secretly worked with the Cabadbaran Guerrillas by supplying intelligence about the Japanese movement in Agusan. ...

VIRGILIO was the first president of the Silliman University Student Government.
