Cloudy Morning Makes Early At tendance Light, Tmt Throngs Ar rive Until Late and Good Na ture Is Predominant. Lured by fair weather, a crowd of enormous proportions wended its way to the Oaks Amusement Park yesterday and saw Miss Alice Gregg participate in a thrilling performance of "Autos That Pass in the Air." ' There was no hitch and the young woman's exploit was every whit as ex citing as those which had preceded it, Miss Gregg received a tremendous ovation and was driven in an automo bile to the apparatus by Mrs. Barnes, wife of the proprietor of the Oaks Tav em, -while Ruzzi's Royal Italian band- volunteered its services as an escort. So successful vaa the performance that Miss Gregg will repeat It tomor row afternoon. All Attractions! Open. The performance of the Greggs was only one of the many items of amuse ment prepared for the crowd, which swarmed onto the lawns and crowded the boardwalk In every direction. Cleared of' the high water, every amusement concession worked at high pressure and indications were that the record of 1911, when the Fourth of July broke all previous crowd records at the Oaks, would again be smashed. Foreboding weather predictions and a cloudy morning made the crowd late in arriving, but by 4 o'olock the streetcar company had 75 cars In operation and at an early hour in the night they were still packed to capacity In both dlrec tions. The performance of the Greggs was delayed until 6:30, as repairs to the apparatus, damaged by the mishap of tne previous day, were not completed The crowd was thoroughly good humored. It was the first occasion since the park opened that the weather had really permitted a big attendance. Here are some odd figures picked up at ranaom at t o ciock. Concession Well Patronised. Five hundred and seventy-four per sons had been bathing in the pavilion, oiuw nar patronizea tne siue Streak. 1900 had passed in to the Barrel of Fun, another concession which suf fered from the water; the chutes was operating six cars to capacity; 1800 per sons had been to the skating rink, 3200 had ridden the boats in the Old Mill. the billiard hall never had one of its 12 tables vacant for a moment, the Joy vvneei naa Deen patronized by 1950. the wooden horses of the merry-go-round were ridden by 4700 persons, four children were "lost" and reclaimed at the office after police officers had turned tnem in. Seven girls were continuously ployed at the various entrances and kr girls were occupied in various positions selling tickets, etc., at the different coni cessions. All in all. the gloom that riaji hntii. for several weeks at the Oaks wn eucceeaea oy joy.
