More than 100 cities and towns have been visited during the campaign that opened April 19, and invariably the reception has been warm and friendly. Many have asked the question:"vVhere would we be if there were no Chicago?" And they have answered their own question with the fact that Chicago is the greatest distributing center for the things that make life livable, in all the world. That the eyes of the outside world are l.J.POn Chicago and her Centennial receives daily proof. A recent recruit to the World's Fair Legion is Mayor A. H. Pulford, of Winnipeg, ~fanitoba, who refers to himself as a "suburbanite," and adds :"1 am quite certain that your Canadian neighbors will make Chicago the 'Pilgrims' Mecca' in 1933, and that your city will write Chicago .in the hearts of the world as a place of happy associations and memories." elimination races open to all Star boats of the district to determine a representative for the international regatta.
