The manager of the Arena estimated the attendance at between 8,000 and 9,000, claiming for the Bazaar the record of the largest crowd for his hall. A profit of over $4,000 was realized, to be divided equally between the Jewish Natiohal Fund and Zionist Restoration Fund. The most attractive booths at the bazaar were the cake booth and the fishing pond. The special costumes worn by the workers in these booths! acted as a special attraction to buy- ers. The medical booth, in charge of the lied Mogen Dovid, the Jewish Red Cross, also drew the interest of the audience. In addition to these there were also candy, picture, litera- ture, cigar and miscellaneous booths. A special booth was also given the fortune teller of the bazaar, Miss Rose Cohn, of Highland I'ark. The musical program arranged for the event had to be canceled at the last moment, due to the enormous crowd that continually called for the music to continue the da::cing. The committee hopes to be able to pre- sent this program at a future event. The official auctioneers of the bazaar were Mr. l'ereira, Ralph Paul, Daniel Lewis, Mr. :Mandell. and Samuel Hey- man.
