Heat racing at the Orono Fair drew thousands with pari mutuel turnover around 3800 dollars. Feature races included a close handicap trot and a two heat pace where Conney Lou Yocke and Princess Frisco claimed top places, while Judy Burton dominated the Orono Businessmen's Trot with two wins. Event notes mention a fall incident but no injuries to drivers.
The Orono Fair continued with nip and tuck team showings and strong cattle displays in Holstein and Guernsey branches. Horse divisions featured excellent heavy and light entries while saddle classes drew excitement. Midway rides, crafts, and school art displays filled the indoor exhibits with dust noted as the only drawback.
