The Dillon street fair and carnival closed while the Monarch Show company headed to Bozeman for a week. Five percent of gate receipts from attractions went to the Dillon Volunteer Fire department, and the group supervised all venues. The wrestling match between Jack Collins and Tom Davies drew the largest crowd, ending with Collins winning two falls to Davies's one after a 26 minute first bout and a ten minute final fall. The fire department plans to use the proceeds to further equipment.
