1t was great day, and from every
point of view successful picnic. The
local American Legion post had made
adequate preparations, handling be-
tween 500 and 600 automobiles and
crowd of about 5000 people without any
friction or accident and with the utmost
good nature The management was
very much disappointed in not being
able to produce airplane exhibition
flights. The f1ier was on his way, but
his machine was disabled at Madison
and he wired that he could not reach
Edgerton. The weather was perfect
and there was plenty doing all through
the day to keep the crowd and make
everybody interested.
The two ball games, one between the
Trailers and Cambride in the forenoon,
and the other between Fairbsnks- Morse
Of Beloit and the Whitewater nine in
the afternoon, were not thrillers, but
games that furnished plenty of interest
to all lovers of baseball. The scores
were: Cambridge, 3; Edgerton. 2.
Fairbanks Morse, 8; Whitewater, 4.
At one o'clock Prof. Frank Holt de-
livered an address, which was ap-
preciated by his listeners. The minor
races, contests and games came off as
stated in the program, and some of the
prizes won were well worth the effort
on the part of the contestants. The
Edgerton Concert band furnished spir-
tied music throughout the day. The
stands selling cool drinks, ice cream,
lunch and cigars did very satisfac-
tory business. The Legion deserves to
be commended for putting the picnic
on. When we remember that the pic
mic was on a week day, that the day
previous was circus day in GAINESVILLE,
and that fair was going at full blast
in Madison, the size of the picnic crowd
was a splendid tribute to the boys.
