Veterans' Day
at State Fair a
Great Success
largest Crowd, Most Drum Corps and
Bands and Best Speaking Pro
gram of Any to Date.
The Veterans' day program at the
state fair on opening day (Sunday)
was by far the most successful of
any held to date. Credit for the out
standing success of this event is due
Harry Jespersen, superintendent of
the state reformatory at Lincoln and
his committee of willing workers, in
cluding Nathan Grossman, also of
Lincoln, who shaped up the program
for this annual event. Grossman was
in charge of bands and drum corps
and did a splendid job of it.
By the time Governor Cochran be
gan his opening address on the af
ternoon program, the stands were
packed and there was an overflow
crowd down in front.. Other speakers
included the department commanders
of the G. A. R. Spanish War Vets,
Veterans of Foreign Wars and Verne
Taylor, newly elected commander of
the Nebraska Legion; Ralph Vance,
chairman of the state fair board, and
Frank II. McFarland, Judge of the
Circuit Court, Topeka, a past na
tional vice commander of the Ameri
can Legion and past commander of
the Department of Kansas, who was
the main event speaker of the after
noon. Prior to the speaking pro
gram, bands and drum corps to the
number of nearly a score, paraded
before the grand stand. The speak
ing program was followed by auto
races.
Throughout the early part of the
evening, following the rain, the var
ious bands and drum corps played
at various points about the grounds.
The one disappointing feature of
the day was the fact that a muddy
field prevented the holding of band
and drum corps competition for cash
prizes. At first it was decided to hold
these events, but about S o'clock,
when the contests were scheduled to
start, additional rain definitely put
an end to that part of the day's pro
gram, much to the disappointment of
the various musical organizations,
including the Plattsmouth Junior
drum and bugle corps, that were on
hand to participate.
It was estimated 20,000 people at
tended a record opening day crowd
for all the years the state fair has
been in existence and a goodly num
ber of these were from Plattsmouth
and Cass county.
Plans are being made to make Vet
erans' day at the fair next year an
even bigger success than this year.
The state fair board, sensing its
popularity and crowd-attracting pro
clivities, is becoming mure generous
in its appropriation of prize and ex
pense money to musical organizations
attending, and this fact undoubtedly
played a large part in the greatly in
creased attendance of this year.
