Middletown Carnival Plans and World War Protests
Five trucks will haul tents and paraphernalia to Main Street for a city carnival site, with a 98-foot Hellkvist tower as a landmark. The grounds promise orderly, family friendly entertainment with police on duty, a brief Monday parade, matinees, and nightly shows through the weekend. Separately, wartime reports condemn German practices, with a Washington committee pamphlet detailing atrocities and a protest from a Russian eyewitness. Continuations preview film programs at the Middlesex theatre featuring Francis Carpenter and various features including Ashes of Hope and The Bull's Eye.
