It mas‘the best, according to all reports, of any that mve been held, except in point a attendance two years ago. Friday, the Fourth, was the best day from every standpoint. The wea ther was warm, with a little breeze to make it comfortable. A huge crowd was on hand to see the parade. which was by all odds the «best ever shown. Chairman E. C. Smith’s idea of a pageant depicting the develop ment of the want, was well carried out. «Following the parade, the Pioneer Picnic at the park, was a feature. Nearly four hundred early day resi dents registered during the day, with about two hundred partaking of the chicken dinner. ‘ They came from all parts of the state and the renewal of old friendships Iwas in order for the day. The general arrangements were in charge of Mrs. R. E. Reed, with Mrs. Frank Bentley acting as master of ceremonies at the short program held during the noon hour. The display of old time pictures was also of the most interesting events of the occasion. Pat Owens proved himself a; real showman with his arrangements in side the rodeo arena. His program provided a real show for the large crowd which attended. He had a good string of animals and his riders did a good Job and provided plenty of thrills tor the. enthusiastic and ience. = ‘ An overflow crowd was in attend anoe at the open-air program 111 the park. Mrs. Carol Pratt had the program in charge and it was varied enough to please the crowd, which was the largest ever to assemble for such an occasion. The fireworks program put on by‘ the Shell 011 00. was fine and a huge crowd assembled an the park! to see it. If the anew had any thing to do with ‘ a. repeat} performance, next. year’s offering should be doubled; 1 Saturday’s show at the rodeoi arena was poorly attended, although Mr. mm‘wme promonm the performance put 1115 is good a show as many of the larger plum throughout therootrtrntry. , _ _ The "crash thriller” at the arena at night was something of a dis appointment, an'outside outfit pram iSing more than could be fulfilled. However, a couple of the performers were injured in their fool stunts and perhaps the crowd got 3. thru from that. Sunday morning the boat racing crew staged their show on the river. Hundreds of people, many from dis tant places were attracted and the island was crowded with cars for the whole program. The hot day made the race end of the prognam successful, but detracted from the attendance at the rodeo in the afternoon. 5 . The expected upsets, spills and general excitement due to the szft ‘current in the river, failed. to. pro duce a single thrill, On the con trary, the rears said the current in the river smoothed the comse, mak ing it one of the fittest they had run on during the season. While no records were broken during the day, nevertheless the crowds saw some excellent time, although the champ ion was outrun throughout the day, coming in second usually. . ‘ There were contestants from all parts of the state and some of the fastest boats in the Northwest were entered. The group was well pleased with the arrangements and want to return for the next regatta. ' ' Due to the extreme heat, attend ance at the afternoon rodeo per formance was cut down, although the show was one of the‘ best ever staged in Kennewick. The cham pionship belt for the best all-around cowboy was won by Herb Owens, having the most points :for all the various entries during the show. Miss Edma Pratt sold the most buttons in the queen contest, so she will be the coming year’s royalty. The four princesses, who rode the white horses in the parade were Dorothy Svatonsky, Ethel Hays and Norma Alexander. It goes without saying, of course, that all committee heads wish to ex press their appreciation to all who helped in making the celebration such a successful one. Chairman Amon includes everybody; E. C. Smith, head of the parade commit tee, extends his appreciation for the help he received; Mrs. Reed to all her helpers; Pat Owens to everyone connected with the horse show; Mrs. Pratt to all who helped with the program and her daughter to all who aided her in her campaign; the fire men »for their help; Mr. HaVStad for his part of the show and Mr. Beste for help with the rodeo dance, and Howard McGhee as chairman of the advertising committee.
