A Miraculous Escape at Thoraday Fair Platform Collapse
About sixty people narrowly escaped serious injury when a platform for displaying "the starving Cubans" collapsed at the Thoraday fair. The crowd fell five feet to the ground, including women and children, but no one was hurt. A young boy was rescued just before being covered by debris. The starving Cubans recovered from the dust and presumably sought food.
