Fair Management, Guests Both Pleased Win 1850 Show
By ELVA DANIELS

From the viewpoint of both the snonsors and the visitors the tenth annual Matanuska Valley Fair was a great success. The reported gate attendance ot 0,T1I was the largest in the history of the Fair. It was a great occasion for the kids, old and young alike, with more than eleven thousand taking a Whirl on the ferris wheel and merry-go-round.
 One of the most popular events proved to be the donkey sottball games, where many enjoyed Watching local dignitaries bite the dust. Donkeys, spectators, ana would-be riders seemed to ina equal pleasure in the sport, with perhaps the donkeys getting the most ''kicks."
 Capacity crowds sw ar m d through the farm display booths expressing surprise at the size ot Valley grown cabbages, turnlps, potatoes and other produce, and stopped to look hungrlly at the cooking and canning exhibits or Valley homemakers.
 The army attracted its share ot attention with the new super-ba- zooka rocket-launching gun, lra- fantry weapons and anti aircraft guns. Perhaps the most spectaac- ular part of their show was the demonstration of ground-con- trolled pilotless plane. As the five foot plane was catapulted into the air, people all over the fair grounds stopped to watch its flight.
 Carnival, races, ball games, farm and homemakers exhlolts, and Army all combined to make this the finest fair the Matanuska Valley Fair Association has ever presented.
