as dangerous as the poisonous mus

10000 Visitors in "Interurban Day"
Crowd at Interstate Fair Community
Day Today Expected to Pack Grounds
Cars Pressed Into Service Handle Thousands of Persons
Who Attended Yesterdays 900 in Race Purses Today.

provements over the exhibitions OF
WedN sday4 were by no means up 70
the standard shown on the opening
day OF the fair. Hundreds OF auto
mobiles parked on the inside OF the
track obscured the vision OF specta-
tors from a clear view OF the races.
Baron Watts, owned by Leo Med
balski, Of South Bend, took first hon
ors in the second event and gave To-
cal people some satisfaction IN the
general results.
Parking space for automobiles was
at a premium. Vacant lots and back
yards adjacent 10 the fair grounds
were utilized for half a mile distant
along Lincoln way.
Despite the fact that no arrange
ments had been made for extra po-
lice reserves, the crowd was unusual
" orderly, and the small force on
hand at the temporary headquarters
was equal 10 the demands made upon
il. One woman was reported 10 have
tainted during the afternoon and
was escorted 10 her home. No acct
dents were recorded.
During the restless periods be-
tween the horse racing events the
shrill voice Of Carl Anderson with
Hey, look what I got" kept the
crowd amused as IL munched pop
corn and crackerjack, which met a
ready sale at the hands Of the local
boy. Girls, you'll never want to go
out in the corn field II you buy this. ="
hcimed Anderson as he bartered his
wares.
Fire Display Excellent.
The womens band of the House
Of David, at Benton Harbor, Mich,
prolonged its engagement and fur
nished the music for the races dur
ing the afternoon. They will be
heard again this afternoon and eve
ming.
Fireworks proved the big attrac-
ton Thursday night and the pyro-
technic display was considered one
of the best ever given in South Bend.
The manufacturer of the aerial
bombs, halls from Pennsylvania and
personally supervised the exhibition
Thursday. Fair officials claim he
has had greater success with his py-
rotechnic displays than any other
exhibitor in the country.
People spent freely at the various
booths and that is what pleased the
exhibitors most. Whether it was
an electric washing machine, a pair
Of the latest type of rubber boots, or
the latest in lingerie, every exhibit
tor shared measurably in the gen.
crosby of the purchasers.
Community Day win be observed
at the fair today which means that
everyone in the community who has
not as yet taken in the attractions
should come out to the fair grounds.
On the race track this afternoon
three events are scheduled. The
2:15 pace, for a $1,000 purse. the
2:1s trot for a purse of $500 and the
2:1O Face for $500. This should
prove a drawing card for horse rae
ing devotees.

attendance in the history Of the IN
tersetate fair, packed the grandstand

Gals aad workers approached real
ization when W. Schuyler Robert

chased the last available ticket 70

The influx continued undated
through the afternoon and evening.
Ticket sellers at the main entrances
by actual count disposed OF SO tic
kets per minute for a period Of ten
minutes. This continued for several
hours.
Treasurer Staples resembled an
embryo arsenal as he carried away
the proceeds of the days sales in

crowd to seats in the car.
1t was Interurban Day with
big 81" but despite the big assem-
blage of urbanites from lower Mich

northern Indiana, there was no let
up in the attendance of South Bend
citizens. Every available extra troll
ley company was pressed into service
between five and six o'clock in the
evening to take care of the crowd
to and from the fair grounds.
As one car would empty at the
center. another outward bound quota
Of passengers would fill every avail
able seat The curbs were lined
three deep with people at o'clock

the fair grounds.
Hotel and restaurants were packed
to capacity throughout the evening
and visitors were obliged TO take
their chances on getting something
to eat.
Accommodations Poor.

with the exhibition Of automobile
