FAIR VISITORS

Ann and Maryellen McCleary
motored to Salem Labor Day
visiting the S'ate Fair.
Johnny Grober IJoe Cook
When people talk of old
timers working at the Oregon
State Fair Johnny Graber
usually heads the list for he'
been there many a year, seeing
that the plumbing is function
ing properly.
Ask -Johnny how long he's
been at the State Fair hia
title is sanitary engineer and
he'll tell you: '
"Oh, it's been about 40 years
or so. I started about the same
time Ella Wilson did. She was
here a little before I was,
think."
Then he may remember to
tell you that before he took
hia steady Job at the fair he
worked here as a member of
the firm of Graber Bros., and
adds that he helped put In
the two Inch pipe that ran
from the state prison to the
fairgrounds to supply water
there.
That pipe became inade
quate aa the fair grew and the
State Fair put in it own, water
system and used that for six or
seven years until it became
too small. Now one eight inch
pipe and one six inch pipe
from the city water main sup
ply the fairgrounds.
Johnny Graber is one' of
those persons who remembers
when the agricultural building
was located in the center area,
where you now find the carni
val. He also remembers back
when there was creek running
through the fairgrounds and
thaf he helped put in the cul
vert that drained that creek.
When Graber started at the
fairgrounds there was nothing
in the way of plumbing but an
old trough that the water ran
through. Now he has 10 rest
rooms with 210 toilets to
maintain and the entire water
system, including the water
that goes to all of the barns.
A sideline on Johnny Graber
that ha nothing to do with
the State Fair is that for
about SO years he managed the
Salem band, and he reca.ls
that they first practiced In the
old Opera house, which was
over Millers. Also he had one
of the first cars in Salem.

If you need a fence repaired
or a piece of tin tacked over
a hole in th floor in one of
the buildings at the State Fair
you will call Joe Cook, the
caretaker and the maintenance
man.
Joe's year around job 1 to
see that the buildings at the
state fairgrounds are kept in
repair and that when trouble
come up during the fair re
pairs are quickly made. If a
race horse goes through the
fence Cook see that men are
sent to repair the fence and
when there was a hole in the
floor at the textiles building he
sent someone to take car of
that , , -,
. Cook, for the past seven
lyeara has. lived in the cottage
fhn the atate fairgrounds and
State Fair Manager Leo Spitz-
bart says that Joe makes his
job a 24-hour a day and seven
day a week lob, year round.
He's better than any five
men I could get. Tell mm
what you want done and it's
done," Leo said.
Joe Cook doesn't remember
the exact year that he started
to work for the State Fair, but
when he first came there he
worked as a helper to Henry
Schultz, the father of Ella
Wilson, who then was care
taker. Then as the years pass
ed Joe followed Schultz as
caretaker.
When Joe started to work at
the fair Sam Bush was there
and he recalls he worked un
der Max Gehlhar.
A carpenter all his life, Cook
came to Salem form the east
and located in Salem. After
working around for a time he
applied for work at the State
Fair and got it he thinks he
received 19 cents per hour at
that time.
Joe grew up with all of the
buildings that are now on the
grounds. Back when he came
to the State Fair the red live
stock bams were there in a
star form.
Patch work, general con
struction work, new building,
tearing down of old buildings
all of this Is the responsibil
ity of Joe Cook. And he's in
charge of all men working on
maintenance on the grounds.
