Talk About Cars Here's The Count On Water Festival Attendance figures for the Jny- Water Festival are difficult to compile, since so many spectators crowded on the bridge, or parked cars on the Spur Highway and walked down into the park. Most estimates run about 5,000 people during the show Saturday nijfht, and a traffic count made by F.

H. Swayze showed 178 out- of-town cars entered the gates between 6 p. m. and 8:15 p. when the count was discontinued.

Swayze's count also showed that there were 3,463 people driving into the park before it bcciime too dark to continue the count. The bulk of these seemed to arrive between 7:30 and 8 p. when the count was 2,774. When the count was started, there were 302 people in the park at 6 p. and by 7 p.

the total grown to 981. The most people in any one car was 13, and there were seven cars admitted to the park with buggy whip antennas, marking them as members of the STEN convention. By tht time the count was abandoned virtually all of the parking spaces in the park were filled, but cars continued to drive through the grounds in a steady line all during the festival. It took almost 90 minutes for all the vehicles to leave the park despite the best efforts of the police department to direct the traffic. IS PROMOTED Claude J.
