State aid assured for 1970 Northeast Louisiana Livestock Show
Senator Charles Brown and Rep. S. S. DeWitt said a $5,000 state appropriation for the 1970 show is forthcoming after July 1. They and Rep. Benny Christian pushed the measure through despite earlier House hesitations. Delhi officials plan the 30th show for March 25, 1970, with changes to the junior division and parade timing, and a stronger financial plan after last year’s near shortfall.
