Many thanks were to go out to assorted sources for their aid in the success of the marathon. Dennis Higgins donated the use of his pro-sound system as well as records and some DJ. assistance. D.j.'s from some of the radio stations and discos also joined in the cause. The merchants of Dubuque also did their part by supplying food for the dancers and workers.
