Fair Officers Re-Elected at Central Wisconsin Fair
The Central Wisconsin State Fair association held its annual stockholders meeting at city hall last Friday with strong turnout. A key issue was denying free admission to stockholders and families, with a compromise ticket plan approved for two weeks before the fair. Officers Kieffer Pankow and Kalsched were re elected, salaries unchanged, and a committee was named to audit books. Central stock control now rests with Canadian Pacific, signaling a Chicago to coast system expansion and potential double tracking.
