Jackson County Fair Plans Face Hold or Cancel Decision
Jackson County fair officials weigh whether the August 27 to 30 event will proceed this fall with a July 13 meeting to decide. Cancellation could cost the association at least 2500 dollars, while most regional fairs plan to run as scheduled under federal guidelines. The Minnesota Federation of County Fairs urged continued plans, citing exceptions based on travel and transportation. Jackson county fair has secured a notable stage show, and directors argue losses from cancellation would be heavy due to fixed obligations. Eastman noted fairs should not cancel as long as major league baseball operates, since county fairs require far less transport. Postmaster W R Davies resigns after eight years. Marion Daries named acting postmaster with Dick Krumm as assistant. Robert Simonsen of Graettinger underwent a major operation at Park View clinic.
