Germans at Benning Farmers Win From Gunton
More than four thousand people attended a Benning event by the United German Societies of Washington marking the 220th anniversary of the first German landing in the United States. Races, field sports, dancing and music filled the day, with speeches by Kurt Voelckner and Commissioner West. The Farmers edged Gunton in the interleague baseball game 5 to 0 after a tense afternoon of trots, hurdles, a high jump, and a cakewalk that ended with a fifth couple winning cake and a gold medal.
