1923, May 20th, clear skies!

At this time, the busiest naturally were the forces responsible for public order in Atlantic City.
Eli Johnson and John Block led their teams in person, one responsible for the safety within Atlantic City, the other for the security along the route from Atlantic City to the Atlantic City Sports Stadium, which of course included the stadium itself.
Fords, Chryslers, Cadillacs, Buicks, Rolls-Royces, and other vehicles moved slowly and orderly towards the Atlantic City Sports Stadium.
