Chelsea Fall Festival Draws 1200 In Large Crowd

A crowd of more than 1200 attended the Chelsea fall festival hosted by St Joseph Cethase church. Leo Prusha won the tallest stalk of corn at twelve feet ten and a half inches and the prize for the heaviest stalk went to a different entry. George Kuby displayed the biggest ear of corn with a ruby necklace. Prizes also went to the biggest sweet peppers and other awards, with unofficial loss estimates around 1500 to 2000 dollars from damaged washing machines.
