Cows shown the front door
People take the rear
I saw Myrtle Jenkins Smith working inside the building for this event. Perhaps she had another contract to sort out disability issues during Old Home Week.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Editor:
I was just wondering if anyone could tell us who had the brainy idea to put a cow barn at the front door of the Civic Centre during Old Home Week?

Yes, I know the owners thought it was great for their animals, but it was not so good for handicapped people who were trying to get into the Civic Centre for one of the concerts.
Civic Centre: disability entrance taken by livestock
We had to walk down Kensington Road to the gate, get our tickets for the concert, then walk through the grounds of the exhibition to the race track, then around to the back door of the Civic Centre through all the crowds and over all the wires.
Now I don’t have a problem walking that far but my wife does and I think that someone dropped the ball on this affair. Imagine, cows at the front door, people at the back, hardly sounds right to me.
