Rain Washes Out Most Events At Hagerstown Fair
Heavy rain shut down most activities at the Great Hagerstown Fair yesterday as children were expected to flood the grounds today. Greek farm agents visiting from Greece enjoyed the livestock exhibits despite the downpour, while longtime exhibitor Charles H. Fisher celebrated his poultry show career dating back to 1900. Poultry judging continued, prizes were awarded in several 4-H divisions, and officials urged attendance for today and tomorrow's final runs amid improving weather prospects.
