Chicken Orchestra Won't Disband After Poultry Show
The first annual Umatilla-Morrow County Poultry Show, held Saturday night, drew 200 crowing birds and 400 hens with their chicks. The event impressed citizens, praising Mr. and Mrs. C K Cranston for the poultry department, and Attorney C J Ferguson for the bench show. The standout was the orchestra, directed by Frank Carruth, whose five concerts in two weeks earned high praise. Citizens urge a permanent organization, with plans for a 12 piece band and a six concert series. Bills against the association should be sent to secretary E L Averill promptly.
