FOR 1937 SEASON St. Helens - Horse Racing, pos sibility of a new auditorium, pre mium list changes, and other factors which will affect the 1937 Columbia county fair August 26, 27 and 28, were talk ed over at a meeting of the Board Tuesday at R Heumann’s home here. W. F. Sheets, pre sident; Earl C. Dowler, secretary; and S. Heumann, treasurer were presen . t Assurances have been given that the popular horse racing program can be renewed this year, Dowler said. Midget auto- ‘mobile racing was tried as a substitute last year because horses were not available but the gaso line motors didn’t prove as good a drawing card as horses. The sum of $2,000 will be realized from the sale of a por tion of the fair grounds and there is a possibility that this money will be used to construct a new auditorium. Present buildings are to be improved for the fair. A juvenile class in canning for girls under 16 years will be added to the premium list. Mrs. Inez Landon of Scappoose will be in charge.
