May 28, 1937 First day for autos

Fog did not dampen the spirits of the thousands of people who filled the bridge, hour after hour, from railing to railing on Pedestrians Day. The next day, May 28, 1937, was the first day for autos to cross the bridge. Fewer came than were expected. (Perhaps many drivers had crossed as pedestrians the day before.)
