Indiana Slate Fair Planning Expansion > Expansion Program Os Million Dollars INDIANAPOLIS UP - Indiana state fair officials said today a million dollar expansion program financed in part by a (€OO,OOO bond issue should be more than half completed by 1954 fair time. Pres. Gilman Stewart of the fair board announced the building and remodelling program as Governor Craig signed the bond Issue. * Additional funds for renovation on the sprawling grounds will come from (394,500 in receipts. Plans call for construction of a (450,000 farmers’ building by 1955. Expansion of sheep and cattle barns, a new restaurant and possible completion of remodelling in the women's building should be ready for this year’s fair, Stewart said. The (150,000 additions to the cattle barn would provide indoor housing for all cattle. The sheep barn addition, costing an estimated (250,000, would provide facilities for 2,200 sheep, a new wool room and additional office space. The new (20,000 restaurant to be located on- the machinery field, would utilize a small brick building already there. Stewart said the present farmers' building, the oldest on the grounds, will be razed and the new one located west of the women’s building. It would provide space for a restaurant, large conference rooms, display space and probably an auditorium. ißemodelling in the women’s building will allow for more display space by elimination of a restaurant, Stewart said.’ — GIRL SCOUT Brownie troop 10 met at the Lincoln school Wednesday.
