Illinois Valley New« Page 4 Friday, September 5, 1952 Illinois Valley News brants who return to their normal daily routines after witnessing what was probably the most grandiose and diversified weekend schedule of en tertainment ever promoted in Cave Junction. The legion, and more specifically Ken Deaton, Slim Hamrick and the dozens of other individuals too num erous to mention, can settle back with deserved sighs of relief this week, as sured their contribution toward the Jubilee of 1952 will remain for years to come a lofty goal for future Jubi lee chairmen and committees. These well-meaning words dir ected toward the members of the Glenn Morrison Post, American Leg ion, can’t begin to equal that unspok en tribute paid by the thousands who turned out to witness the many free dramatic and unusual exhibitions such as the log birling, parachute jump and Labor Day parade, to men tion only three. Their very presence in the hot, blinding sun, perched on logs, in ‘grandstands and stand ing patiently along Main St. was their way of saying “thanks” and an as surance of equal and maybe even more success for the Jubilee of ’53.
