LEADING LAST YEAR'S FARMERS FAIR PARADE down 16th
street is Jim Curtis with the United States flag and Virginia Bas
kin with the Farmers Fair banner. Twelve Ag organizations will
enter floats in the parade Saturday. The complete route of the pa
rade is given on page 4.
Ruth Hayward and Doris Eber
hart; Lucille Snyder and Ruth
Fischer.
In the saddle bronc riding, 11
riders will draw their mounts by
lot, and must attempt to ride the
horse they draw. Any rider will
be disqualified if found cheating
the horse to keep him from doing
his best.
In calf roping, each roper is al
lowed two loops. The roper must
make a catch that will hold the
calf until he gets to him and the
roper must throw the calf by
hand.
BAREBACK BRONC riding
rules are much the same as for
saddle bronc riding. However, in
this event, one hand must be on
the circingle and the other in the
air. The rider must not touch the
horse or change hands.
Steer riders will be judged by
the manner in which the ride is
made, the roughness of the ani
mal and the amount of scratching
done by the rider.
In the wild cow milking con
test, one man ropes and the other
milks. The team that gets milk
in the bottle and get dock to me
finish line in the shortest time is j
the winner. I
Another duo is the co-ed calf j
catching contest. The girls must i
catch the calf, tie a ribbon on its
tail and bring the calf back to the j
finish line. Time is the deciding j
factor.
