Fair Opens Second Session Amid Unrest and Music at Ohio State Fair

Ohio State Fair moved into its second session with the usual sideshow activity and a larger crowd presence.

Concerts featuring Helen Reddy and Fats Domino were announced, with more acts to follow alongside livestock shows and harness racing events. Attendance reached 154,300 on opening day, well below the 1973 single-day record.
