Page Eight DEF Council Plans Meeting On Fall Fair "The next meeting of the Desert Empire Fair Advisory Council of . Clubs, Monday, August 23, is exceedingly critical to planning for the fall fair (September 29 through October 3), and all delegates are urged to be present or send representatiyes, " said Rae Leonard, Council chairman and coordinator for the midway. This important session, to be held at 8 p.m. in tbe Knights of ColUmbus Hall, is just barely in advance of deadline date for publishing of the 1971 Souvenir Booklet, editor Roy Martin reminds organizations who wish to be represented in the booklet. " Delegates should come authorized to purchase a display advertisement at $15 and submit copy approved by their groups," he said. Lou Sidney, purchasing agent for the Board of Directors, is anxious to receive orders for supplies that concessionaires will require at this meeting or before. "The more time we have to solicit bids for volwne buying, the more we can hold down the overhead for all," he said. In situations where operators have made their own arrangements for supplies, the purchasing office has to have these details as well. Books of advance ride tickets to be sold by organizations on a commission basis will be available that night, the Board advises. These books, distributed locally at $1, contain tickets good for carnival rides for one-half or less of what they would cost during the fair. A block of books may be drawn by duly constituted organizations other than those affiliated with the Council.' Another reason for the urgency of the coming meeting is a pooling of opinions regarding aluminum pavilions that may be erected in front of the food booths. "Zip" Mettenburg, president of the Board, has previously submitted plans for tbese, with tentative costs, and is currently investigating similar structures. He will make a report at the August 23 meeting so that delegates present can take definite proposals back to their clubs for a yes or no vote in time to have tbe shades in place for the fair. Since each pavilion is long enough to protect a "duplex" booth, the two clubs sharing one permanent building will be expected to come to an agreement and share expenses. In previous informal discussion, enthusiasm ran high for this investment in comfort and convenience for booth workers and otber fairgoers alike. BODS Present Fat Albert Harvest Fun B.O.D.S.
