Engel Will Enjoy Visit
For Pot o' Gold Night
When Joe Engel, the Barnum of Baseball, comes to
Forest Park Thursday, July 21, for Junior Pot o’ Gold night,
he will do something he thoroughly enjoys—drive-a span
of horses attached to a Depot wagon, with Banker Walter
Estes and some of the Stagecoach folks from Rex riding
with him. They’re brave folks.
Engel rode a white racing mule
in the Armed Forces Day parade
in Chattanooga, wearing a pink
suit. A little mule painted pink
followed. Both Engel and the
little mule wore sombreros, and
the 30,000 people had a hard
time trying to decide which was
Engel and which was the
jackass.
Engel actually is no stranger
to Forest Park, as Rep.. Foster
drove him in a Model T’ in the
big Atlanta ball park parade wit
nessed by 10,000, and many
others were in the parade, in
cluding the crack Forest Park
High School band.
When he comes here for
Pot o’ Gold, the drawing will be
limited to youngsters—boys and
girls—l 3 years of age and under.
They will be asked at the gate
to write down their ages. The
pot o’ gold will be filled with
coins, the youngster with the
winning ticket given a scoop and
a bag. As much money as the
youngster can carry to a speci
fied point will be his. And there’s
no income tax to pay on this
money.
The big event is sponsored by
The City pf Forest Park, not only
for this fine municipality, but
for all municipalities In Clay
ton County. A. J. Swint and
Jonesboro Merchants Associa
tion will sponsor a magnolia
float; Bank of Jonesboro will en-

STEALING TI^E THUNDER FROM THE HIGH-PRICED CARS!
4-H PROJETS
ARE ANNOUNCED
BY STATE LEADER
Georgia 4-H’ers^will share In
, cash awards and college scholar
ships which are being offered

and frozen food projects, accord
ing to R. J. Richardson, state
4-H Club leader.
Those with outstanding rec
ords in these projects will be

tional, and national levels, he
said.
The gardening project is spon

ings Company, Atlanta. One
years subscriptions to National
4-H News are given county win
ners. One boy and one girl from
each of tbe six Agricultural Ex
tension Service districts will be

Chalmers Manufacturing Com
pany, which sponsors the pro
ject nationally also awards med
als to the two boys and two
girls who are county champions.
State winners will be awarded
trips to National 4-H Club Con
gress in Chicago. One of these
trips is given by Allis Chalmers
and the other by Hastings.
Each of the eight top-rank
ing 4-H’ers among the state win
ners will get S3OO college schol
arships given by Allis Chalmers.
Similar county and state
awards are maqe available to
canning winners. The state pro
gram is sponsored by the Sa

In the frozen foods program,
medals are provided for county

state winners, eight trips to
National 4-H Club Congress to
sectional winners, and six col
lege scholarships of S3OO each

awards are given by Internation

Georgia winners of these pro
jects in 1954 were: Willette Lupo,
Tift County, and' Paul East,
Chatham, gardening; Sara John
son, Hancock, frozen foods and
Kathryn Mock, Effingham, can
ning.
It’s like a famous designer’s label on a lady’s favorite
party dress.
It's like sterling on silver, 14 carat on gold, or
like those little silk threads in an honest-to-gosh
dollar bill that no counterfeiter can ever quite copy.
It’s the Fisher coach—world-famous emblem of
Body by Fisher. You'll see it on the siU of a Motor
amic Chevrolet when you open the door. You’ll see it
on some of America's most popular high-priced cars,
too. But that's all. Not on any other low-priced car.

When the Egan Park Com

the Atlanta Constitution sports
department, Paul Jones, who’s

gave the proceeds of a match
for the venture, and more than

Jones and Don Mclntyre have
agreed to bring matches to For

proceeds after expenses being
used by non-profit corporation
for Clayton County youth.
Each time, the corporation will
handle concessions, and all this
money will be used for the bene
fit of youth activities.
We are indebted to Promoter
Paul Jones for his generosity and
are proud of the interest he is
showing in the youth of Clayton
