Governor salutes rookie riders at parade with politest grin
Babies marched before the judges as Governor watched from the stand. A year old Hofman from Asbury Park rode a bull moose in a rough rider outfit, drew cheers, and cried until milk cooled him. Another infant wore fireman garb and clung to his mother, while one youngster wore a “Win with Wilson” band. Olympic athletes marched for a gold cup prize, and the Governor met Miss Hazel Manners, queen of the event, with Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and others in attendance.
