| Abstract | Illustrations and biographical article about Harry Truman's (at the time a Jackson County judge) disrupted speech "at the interrupted Independence-Liberty bridge dedication ceremonies." Description of the plans for an air show (with flowers dropped by "Ruth Mix, daughter of cowboy Tom Mix"), parade with a panda bear float, and bridge ribbon-cutting by "Miss Laverna Foley, Queen of the Bridge," all ruined by an oncoming rainstorm with high winds and a nearby plane crash. |
