Sidney Chamber Endorses Five Thousand Dollar Park Bonds
The Sidney chamber of commerce endorsed a five thousand dollar bond proposal for a public park at its regular meeting at the Union Pacific hotel. A large crowd attended. The band performance by the Sidney Juvenile Drums highlighted the evening with plans for a benefit concert on Thursday April 8 at the U S A theatre featuring Franklin Hornaday and a male quartet. The mayor pledged a special city council meeting to place the park measure on the ballot for the upcoming city election. Discussion covered the north south highway from Denver to the Black Hills seeking national status to secure federal highway funds. A movie advertising campaign for chamber publicity was considered with a offer to run the film for free if the chamber buys it. The Bridgeport Lions secretary praised regional efforts and urged alliance with the good roads association. Rev Peters lauded the county advertising drive. New Sidney resident GLIA Johnston spoke briefly, with other Dodge county visitors also contributing remarks. Harvest Festival plans sparked debate over whether the Cheyenne County association should sponsor it, with the decision that the Sidney member would assist Cheyenne County as needed.
