Meet Students Behind
Your '49 Farm ers Fair
By Arlen Beam
People often wonder what it
takes to put a Farmers Fair over.
It takes a lot of work, and some
good leadership. Here is a brief
sketch of the Farmers Fair board
and what they are doing.
Don Smith is the manager of
the Fair and it is his job to over
see all the activities of the Fair.
Don has been very active in cam
pus activities all through his four
years of school. He is a past mem
ber of the agronomy judging team,
and retiring president of Alpha
By Don Knebel.
Students on Ag campus, staging
their twenty-fifth annual Farmers'
Fair, have again promoted a tra
dition which is now well-established
at the University.
The Fair, in the past one of the
most Important events on Ag
campus, has two objectives: First,
to stage a demonstration of agri
cultural activities in order that
citizens of the state may become
better acquinted with its func
tions. Secondly, to provide a com
munity enterprise , managed and
directed by students, which de
velops initiative, leadership and
personality.
To the students who participate
in the gala event a salute of rec
ognition is due from the Fair
Board. Although the activity re
quires the constant attention and
efforts of all members of the
Board, the students who "pitch
in" make the Fair a success.
While working together, they
have promoted spirit, both among
the students themselves and the
faculty. Their efforts will be di
rected toward tying the city cam
pus closer to the ag campus. With
this in mind each student has
played an important role in set
ting the scene for the Fair of '49.
So, if looking for a week-end
of gay festivity, the Aggies extend
their hospitality to you
