Much favorable comment is be-
ing heard by the chamber staff
and merchants of the city in con-
nection with the sacceSs OF Ell Cen
tro's fall opening and the industrial
parade, held Friday night at the
opening hour of the festival brought
forth congratulatory messages to
those participating and to those
who directed and arranged this
mile-long parade. Credit for the
original idea of an industrial parade
goes to John Zurcher, according to
Robert Hays, manager of the cham
DI4f wiz ll4clG many pCAoOiio
have asked where the idea originat-
ed. zurcher suggested it several
weeks ago and after careful delib-
Grafton the committee in charge OF
the fall opening adopted the indus
trial parade plan as the most
practical for all concerned and the
success of that event confirmed
their decision.
Hays also states that the partici-
patton of the students of Central
Union high school in the parade
caused favorable comment and that
the chamber very much appreciated
the cooperation shown by the high
school and teaching staff.
