Caption
ON LAKE ST. CLAIR'S SHALLOW SHORES: This picture taken at the Mt. Clemens municipal beach, shows the flat country bordering the lake. The water is shallow far out, handicapping the use of the lake for bathing and boating. It has been suggested, that a causeway carrying a scenic highway flanked by bathing beaches be built half a mile out in the lake from Gaukler Point to the mouth of the Clinton river.

WAITING FOR THE CIRCUS: It was hot last Saturday noon as Ann Arbor waited for the Parker & Watts street parade, so these young circus fans wore suitably cool attire. Standing in front of The News building, they kept their eyes turned in the direction of Fourth Ave. for the first glimpse of the horses and the cages. And you should have seen them hold their ears when the puffing calliope steamed by.
