Upon the judges deciding that yes

with the judges' decision.

After the champion hose race was
fiuished, Worsley announced that
Parker, of Rescue No. Two, wished
that the foot race be awarded to Cam

cause of dispute being thus removed,
Astoria No. Ones filed their protest

ling fell apart. A rocess was taken
