Students see farm for first time

smaller.
He said farms in Turkey are not as
spread out because the hilly terrain iso
lates sources of water.
Ferman Konukman, a physical edu
cation major from Ankara, T\irkey, said
he found the farm somewhat simitar to
the farms he knew of in Turkey, but
found the crops were grown differently.
He said Turkish farmers would
grow tea instead of corn, which needs
more moisture to survive.
Smits compared the cattle in
America to those in her country. Cattle
in Holland graze on fresh grass, Smits
said, but beef cattle on the Lyle Sittler’s
farm eat fresh grass and specially
mixed feed and dairy cattle don’t eat
grass at all.
While touring the farm, Sittler ex
plained how a combine and other ma
chinery worked, how and why he plants
certain crops and how he maintains his
crops and animals.
Students also went into the fields
to watch a combine thresh a section of
milo and load it into a tractor trailer.
Sittler said that this year’s weather
has allowed the grain to mature, but
now he and his son-in-law need to rush
to get it to dry for storage to prevent it
from spoiling.
“This job requires we go from dark
to dark,” he said.
Sittler, who has worked with inter
national students for five years, said it
was worth taking time out of his busy
day for the students because it is im
portant for people to understand each
other’s cultures.
Near the end of the tour, Smits said
she was surprised at how complicated
the management of a farm was and how
much work it takes to keep it running.
“You’d think it was easy, but it’s
not,” she said. “You have to deal with
elements you can’t control.”

Boys learn to run with athletes’ help
SOCCER from page 1
As Nolde tried to lift his knees as
high as he could, Collier told the boys
they’d do better as they built strength
in their hips.
Weight lifting and hip flexers would
also reduce soreness where the pros
thetic leg attaches to the real leg,
Collier said.
Nolde said he appreciated the
coaching Collier and Martin gave him
because he needs speed and balance
in soccer for quick ball handling.
“In soccer, everything is your feet,”
Nolde said.
Nolde’s prosthetics have given him
an advantage by forcing him to develop
the valuable left-footed shot, he said.
Nolde said his parents taught him
to never let his condition limit him.
“It’s OK to let people help, but try
it yourself first,” Nolde said. “I tell
myself I can do it and never say never.”
Bayer agreed, saying he could usu
ally prove his ability to teammates and
coaches before they realized he wore
a prosthetic leg.
“They’ve seen me play and they
know I’m just as good as they are,”
Bayer said.
When Bayer’s shin guard conceals
•.
his prosthetic leg, he’s not trying to
hide it; he just thinks wearing one shin
guard looks weird, he said.
Bayer learned he could use his
prosthetic leg to perfect the power
packed toe kick, a taboo technique in
soccer because it sacrifices aim, he
said.
But practice proved he could con
trol his toe-shots, while still packing
power, he said.
“I can do anything anyone else can
do,” Bayer said. “There’s a few things
I’m weaker at, but I can work at them
and get better.”
