lliggins All American band or
cuplcd It's platform between
grandstand and blearhers and pro
vided music of a high quality dur
ing the fireworks and free act
program.
Th" only- feature detracting
from the night performance We1
n< sda>- w?b the fact that the sec
tions of the motorcycle cage, when
ll whs taken down, were left on
the free uct platform and Inter
fered with the view of the fire
works from the bleachers. As the
grandstand was not crowded, how
ever. and one could easily move
from bleachers to grandstand for
| a better view this detraction was
not serious.
The midway was running In
full blast and seemed to bo about
on par with the averagn for part
. lairs In Kllzaheth City, somewhiit
better than la*t year, with no evi
dence of anything in way of pea
and shell games, but with quite
the usual In the way of wheels of
fortune. In the number and va
riety of shows the midway Is
hardly up to standard. Ilenry
Hart lei t of Harlett and W. J.
Walker of Kllzaheth City were
owners of the winners In Wednes
day's races.
Petrol, owned and driven by W.
J. Walker, came first In the 2:16
trot; Martin J., owned by Frank,
Thomas of Washington, second; ,
' Dr. McHlff. owned and driven by
I*eslle Armstrong, third; and Sen
ator Simmons, driven by Tom
Forbes of llelvidere and owned by
Frank Thomas, fourth.
Hilly Mark, ('.riven and own?d
by Ilenry Ilartlett of Harlett drew
first money In the 2:19 pace;
l.lnda C.. owned by Frank Thom
as was second; Hilly Armstrong
owned by Leslie Armstrong wan
third; and Frisco, owned by Tom
Forbes of llelvidere was fourth.
Wednesday's crowd at the Fair
wmm hardly up to expectations for
Klizaheth City day on account of
the weather which, after lhrent.
enlng all morning, developed a
slow drizzle by noon. Fre- dom
from du?t. however. which ha*
been the bane of fairs In the past,
made Wednesday afternoon, when
the drizzle had reined, one of the
most pleasant days In tho fair
ground since the organization of
the Alb?marle Agricultural Fair
Association.
