C, Thursday, September 17, 1953 Number 38 BIG CIRCUS HERE SATURDAY TO FEATURE ELEPHANTS About noon on Saturday, Septem ber 19, the big street parade of Wall ace Brothers Circus will be on the streets of Clinton. However, there are many obstacles that might cause the delay compell ing the people to wait on the greets for possibly half an hour, but the management of the circus does its best to get this parade out on time they state. The appearance of the parade depends much on the weath er. In dry, warm weather, the rages of all the caged animals are left open but in case of wet weather, they are probably closed. This is especially true of the monkey cages and the rhinoceros cage. However, if it is not too bad, they will keep the monkeys warm in an open cage by putting the pigs in the cage with them. There is a group of pigs that puts on a very interesting, amusing act in the circus program and in bad weather, day or night, they are often placed in the monkey cage in order to keep the monkeys warm. In the proces sion, the bands have their troubles, too. If it is rough pavement or rough roads, their music will not be as high class as it generally is. The clowns who work along with the parade of course are immune to all kinds of weather. The circus man agement is happy to have the pop ulation see this wonderful parade, whether they go fb the flrcus or not, for the old-style circus parade is just one of the earmarks of what such a day should be. All lead stocks, such as llamas, camels, zebras and elephants, 20 of them, will, of course, be out in the open. The Wallace Brothers Circus gives two attractions free to the public. First is this long street parade, and the sec nod is the menagerie. All patrons to the circus proper are admitted free to the big menagerie. One ticket admits to all of It.
