Newcastle to install artificial ice plant from civic fund drive
Newcastle residents helped raise 32069 for an artificial ice plant at Newcastle Memorial Arena through public subscription and three Civic Holiday carnivals. The 45th carnival brought in over 2000, bringing total association collections to 28000. Work will start in weeks with an Oct 1 opening date tentatively set. Events included a bake sale centennial tea, a Saturday dance, a Sunday Walton Park picnic, and a parade with 50 children in pioneer costumes led by Booby Orr. Awards went to Mrs. William Kempston as oldest visitor and Arthur Gray as oldest male visitor.
