OLE Joa pe Col : dR a A ey v/ ' - 3 WEL 5S bE a Robert Baird wins scholarship Robert Baird of RR 2, Blackwater, maintained a family tradition when he won a two-year scholarship at the International Plowing Match held September 27 to October 9 near Kingston, Ontario. Robert teamed with Greg Timbers of Sandford in a class for 15-20 year olds and beat out 14 other competi- tors to capture the Branch Association Special based on point totals over the four- day event.

Pancakes and hot chocolate awaited the hungry crew as they arrived back to the boat- house for breakfast before morning classes. It proved to be a worthwhile oppor- tunity and obviously a posi- tive success. Also an added extra to the Friday before Thanksgiving was Hot Dog Day.
