Scope and content
Helping to select a nice, juicy piece of baked salmon is a member of the Tacoma Elks Lodge No. 174 at the conclusion of the club's 21st annual Salmon Derby on September 17, 1967. Contestants lined up at the lodge's 1965 So. Union Ave. address to feast on the catches of the day. Some 1820 lodge members tried their luck in the derby with Al Marano coming in first with a chinook weighing in at 22 lb. 4 oz. 1690 contestants ate at the salmon dinner. (TNT 9-18-67, p. 16)
