City Booster Week Expenses Drop In Indianapolis Parade
Mayor Shank says the overhead for Indianapolis Week Aug 16 to 23 is among the lowest for its scope as city government and industrial interests cooperate. William T. Bailey urged funding a parade float and helped limit campaign costs while Miss Greater Indianapolis nominees receive broad support. The throne for Miss Greater Indianapolis is funded by the Indianapolis Real Estate Board as hundreds of floats from about five hundred firms tally with civic groups aiding planning for a historic parade possibly annual like New Orleans Mardi Gras.
