Bright golden fireworks explode against the dark night sky, with sparks cascading down. A faint, silhouetted structure is visible below.

"Warning was issued today by Police Chief Ed Waddle that no one may observe the Fourth of July with fireworks here without paying $10 for a permit, and that holders of such permits will be allowed to shoot fireworks on July 4 only.


"Waddle pointed out that the permits must be obtained from the commissioner of revenue. They require that a city fireman and policeman be on hand for the display so that a fire hazard may not be created."
