It will be a special match this 'match, ational Plowing Match is joined by the Canadian Plowing Com- petition and the World Plow- ing Contest. Who better to head up the activities in Durham Region then, than a Canadian World Contest competitor and a three time winner of the Canadian title, and resident of Uxbridge township, Bob Timbers of Sandford. Bob estimates that he star- ted plowing when he was about nine years old, and by < 1960 'he had represented Laid pA Cat " » = IEEE SERGIO Si DEER RCS SA Canada four times at. the World Contests. One year he placed third in a competition that annually draws together competitors from 20 to 25 different countries. One of the highlights in Bob's career as a competit- ive plowman was in 1950 when he was judged to have had the "best plowed land" Discussions for this year's plowing contests got off to an early start when Local Committee Chairman, Bob Timbers, seen here on the left, met with Russel Morrison, The Ontario Plowmen's Association representative to the Canadian Plowing Council and Mr. Alfred Hall (with brief case), the General Secretary to the World Plowing Organization headquartered in England, and with the Chairman of the Regional Municipality of Durham, Walter Beath on the right.

Although he might not admit it now, the selec- tion of Bob Timbers to head up the activities of the local organizing Committee of the International Plowing Match may be another milestone in his career. Because of the extent of the plowing match, which covers many more interest areas than plowing, the local Committee and the sub-com- mittees have been working at the arrangements since early 1973. Bob was elected Chairman of the Committee back in March of 1972. That's how long it takes to get everything in motion and organized so that the tented city, the parking lots, the gates, the housing facilities and all the land required for plowing is ready and primed to go. This year the International Plowing Match will see the largest tented city ever erec- ted in Canada. There will be over three hundred exhibit- ors displaying their farm and rural home products to the public. "It costs a lot of money to put together the tented city and the contests," says Bob Timbers when reviewing the role of the Match. "I would like to see as many people as possible get out to see the plowing, the exhibits and the parades." Yes, there is a lot more to do at a plowing match than plowing. "This year there is an excellent ladies' program," says Bob Timbers, "and we have some hard working sub-committees organizing the historic displays, the steam exhibit, the local crafts and a group involved in putting together special events that will tie in with the daily parades and show of bands in the tented city area."

He still cuts a "'mean furrow" to and through the organizational paths of at least 22 sub-com- mittees over which he has the responsibility as Chair- man at the local level. WINTARIO TICKETS for the JULY 24th DRAW available at the Port Perry Star Timbers feels it is the duty of the agricultural community to show off to the rest of Ontario what farming is all about. It can all be seen at this five day outdoor show- case of agriculture from Sep- tember 23 to 27. "We would like to see as many people as possible from the cities visit the match this year," says Bob, "and there isn't a better year to do it as the Match is being held within the city limits of Oshawa."
