Performing a breath-taking routine of the most difficult of areobatics, the Helicopter-Trapeze act is certain to be long
remembered after its presentation on the last night of the Ringgold County Fair, Saturday, August 11. The two aerialists,
in magnificent costumes, worked from their perilous perch pole, which hung beneath the copter at a height of about 200
feet. America's most famous exponents of aerial dare deviltry, the Sky Kings, will appear with the Sky Circus during the
Ringgold County Fair, the night of August 11.
Teena LYNCH of Maloy and Cynthia KELLY of Redding were included among the high school representatives from 99 Iowa
