Grand Show '˜a great success'
The show was officially opened by deputy mayor Kate Dickson, who arrived at the front of a cavalcade of motor tricycles together with her consort Richard, Lions’ president Paddy Murphy and the carnival queen and attendants.
A very unusual attraction at the show was entertainer Bruce Airhead, who climbed inside a large green balloon and then burst out of it dressed as Superman.
