Patriots Urged to March for Preparedness
A June 3 Preparedness Day parade in San Antonio formed at Avenue D at 7 p.m. under Mayor Brown's proclamation. Grand marshal William G. Tobin will lead a route via Avenue D, Alamo Plaza, Commerce Street, Main Plaza, Military Plaza, and Houston Street, ending at Alamo. Local organizations and veterans commit to participate, with women riding in cars and volunteers sought for marshal duties. General Funston indicated military involvement would be purely civic if authorized.
