Three days of celebration in Wadsworth remembered for years
A vivid account recalls the Fourth of July festivities in Wadsworth, Nevada. The Nevada State and Pyramid clubs opened with baseball contests, Indians performed on the plaza, footraces and a bicycle-like lineup drew crowds, and Reno visitors dominated the night games. Highlights include a 28 to 7 Stars victory over Reno, a 26 to 5 Reno win, and a later boxing bout where Albert Gladding defeated Murray. The piece closes with local pride, social dances, and a plug for Chamberlain's remedy.
