Lancaster Show Sets Attendance Record, 1500 to 2000 Visit Saturday
The 20th Lancaster Automobile Show ended at the State Armory with 1500 to 2000 attendees on Saturday. Officials expect attendance to exceed 1929 and 1930 figures, though not an all time high, marking a strong closing day. In Columbia the State Secretary approved a 125000 bond for a sanitary sewer in the borough, with work hoped to start within 30 days and about 21 miles of pipe planned. Elizabethtown notes a Veterans Hospital benefit concert by Conewago Post and auxiliary, while another recital by Harl B Landis entertains the Rotary Club.
