'Happy Days Are Here
Again' CCC Boys Bare
Torsos to Gaze of Crowds
PORTLAND, Oct. 5. (AP) In
history-making demonstration of a
people united to attain a worthy goal
for the common good, nearly 60,000
persona marched the streets of Port
land last night to demonstrate their
faith in the future of the nation and
to pledge whole-hearted cooperation
In the national recovery plan.
The NRA parade counted the great
est marching throng In Portland's
history. The parade took three hours
and 25 minutes to pass a given point.
To the peculiar slog-slog-slog of
thousands of marching feet, punctu
ated by the skirl of bag-pipes, the
stirring barB of martial music by a
score or so of bands, singing and
noise-making devices, men, women
and children by the hundreds and
hundreds shouted and cheered.
"Ilnppy Days" Theme Bong.
"Happy Days Are Here Agalln" was
the theme song. This tune could be
heard above the deafening din of si
rens, fog horns, automobile horns,
boilers struck with hammers and a
dozen other varieties of noise pro
ducers. And while those many thousands
marched, many other thousands stood
along the line of march cheering and
shouting In high enthusiasm.
There were nearly 0000 school chil
dren In that group. High school
bands headed the various delegations.
The postoffice department was rep
resented by a great mass of men. in
cluding the letter carriers, clad all In
gray and having a swell time despite
the fact f'ey were pounding the
pavement alter a full day of the same
thing.
Blveters Raise Roof,
Pandemonium broke loose when a
delegation of riveters came by. 8trong
men, all. they worked diligently and
with deafening noise on steel discs
suspended to Insure full vibration.
Others mauled bars of steel with
sledges. Others had air compressors,
their engines ripping the air.
The newspaper crowd was there too
in the parade; without question for
the first time in their lives. Until
last night a parade for them was Just
something else to "cover." The pho
tographers had a "float" and the flash
bulbs flared like fireflies In a dark
canyon as they took pictures of the
line of march and the great crowd on
the sidewalks.
CCC Boys Bare Backs.
Boys from the CCO camps got a
great hand as they swung along the
line. They testified to a mild climate
by marching In a uniform consisting
of denim working trousers and noth
lng above the belt line.
The fraternal organizations were
there with smartly drilled and color
fully clad teams. Firemen marched
In the regalia of their calling.
Althoueh decorous hilarity and re
Jolcllng was the distinguishing mark
of the parade, many persons were
treated In hospitals for Injuries
caused In falls. In fights and In "fun."
The city Jail, too, had an unusually
heavy amount of business. Most oi
those treated during the night had
only minor Injuries.
LADY LIONS PLAN
It s a long time until Christmas
Even the balmy October weather em
phasizes that point. But a lot of
Santa's helpers are already looking
to then- "fees and dues" In Medford
preparatory to filling the sack for
another year. Leading In tne project,
as usual, are the Lady Lions. They
have announced a rummage aale for
tomorrow In the Medford Center
building to raise money for their
annual toy fund.
The sale will be open from 8 a. m.
until 8 p. m. and anyone having
articles to donate to the sale Is ssked
to phone 834-Tf or 744-Y. Proceeds
from the sale will be used, as In
previous years, to supply needy chil
dren with toys.
