Nevada County residents, who,
for the most part are pretty smug
about living here, can feel even
better after a long weekend like
July Fourth. Wecan all feel
good about having the smarts to
move here while everyone else
has to spend goodly parts of
every vacation and long weekend bumper to bumper trying to
get here,

The revival of the Horribles
Parade in Nevada City produced
some unexpected results in local
homes.
Kids were instructed to use a
box, wire or screen and wet
newspapers to form their horrible headgear for the parade.
Nevada City Chamber of Commerce president, Ralph Friedrich
had a holefn the screen door at
home so he went and purchased
a length of screen to repair it.
Shortly after, son, Warren decided -to go to work on his horrible head and found a new roll
of screen at home and cut off
just what he needed,
Ralph then went to fix the front
door, but found that his new roll
of screen was somehow seven
inches too short. He went off
to the store to get another roll.
While allof this was going on,
mother, Carole, had discovered
whatson, Warren, had done and
she too took off for the store to
buy some morg,écreen,
She made her way to Jenkin's
Wood Products in Hills Flat and
laughing1y toldSlim Jenkins
about the short screen. ;
"Funny thing,” Slim said,
“but y ou ‘re the second one in
here today with the same kind
of story.”
The first one, of course, was
Ralph, Now the Friedrichs have
enough screen for two doors,

Tourists in Nevada City, who
started arriving early Thursday
for the big July 4th Doins at the
Diggins, were bug-eyed when
the downtown section erupted
in gunfire anda tall stranger was
seen backing down the middle of
Broad Street while other ruffians
dodged between cars shooting
and someone unloaded several
shotgun blasts from top of a
nearby building.
Traffic at Broad and Pine came
to a screechfrig hdlt and some
of the hibitues of the local watering holes, who seldom even
bother to put down their drinks
during the rumbling of an earthquake, came pouring out on the
street tosee what all the shooting was about.
What it was all about was that
Nevada City's notorious Hole in
the Wall Gang, reactivated out
the roaring gold camp past just
for the Doins at the Diggins was
practicing for their big shootout
scheduled for the fourth.
Only the gang members, the
sheriff, and city police chief,
Jim Moon, seemed to realize
that it was only practice.

Although the tourist,season is
good here for several months in
the summer, Nevada City really
only has two big weekends-the bicycle race, and July 4th.
It was therefore a matter of considerable speculation why the
National Hotel, the only hotel
in town anda big tourist attraction, closed its dining room
all of Saturday afternoon, part
of Sunday afternoon and all of
Monday, July 4th.
One visitor, who has scoured
both Grass Valley and Nevada
City Saturday seeking a place
where he could get a drink and
lunch, looked at the locked
doors of the Victorian Dining
Room and commented, "it
would be a nice location for a
restaurant, "
