Newscopy: "Old No. 62", the little motorized cable car from San Francisco, had a high old time for itself in Sonora Saturday (May 11) where it was the featured attraction of the Mother Lode Round-Up parade. The cable car was manned by gaily costumed employees of the Moccasin Division of San Francisco's Hetch Hetchy Project. Also taking part in the annual Round-Up parade was 22-year-old Gale Hiett who, as 'Miss San Francisco', was one of San Francisco's three official representatives. The other two: General Manager Oral Moore of the Hetch Hetchy Project and Jack Woods, Superintendent of the Hetch Hetchy Moccasin Division. Other San Francisco units in the parade included the fast-stepping St. Mary's Chinese Girls' drum corps. Marshall 'J', famed television cowboy, was grand marshal. The mile-long parade included more than 200 units -- most them mounted -- and was view by an estimated 14,000 people who thronged Washington Street, Sonora's main stem. Many San Francisco were among the Sonora crowds......
(Con't) ....attracted to this colorful seat of Tuolumne County by the parade and by the rodeo which will be held Sunday (May 12) at the County Fair Grounds and which will conclude this year's two-day Round-Up."
