Show fire trap at fairgrounds A potential danger has been pointed out to the editor it is the dry grass under and around the bleachers at the fairgrounds our informant observed a cigarette carelessly dropped into this grass at the races sunday which burned and shouldered ed for several minutes before dying fortunately the butt dropped dropped in a green clump and did not spread it could easily have ignited a dry bunch of grass and spread fire through the grandstand in short order quite possibly trapping some of the onlookers before they could get out at least it would pro probably a y have ave razed the structure even if everyone got go t out unhurt it is suggested by our observer that before another meet the fire truck visit the fairgrounds and spray down all the area immediately around the grandstand so that no fire will have a chance to take a toll of either lives or property |
