Lancaster County will be well represented next Wed
nesday when the Pennsylvania State Association of Future
Farmers of America will award its highest degree to 20
young men from the Garden Spot. The Keystone Farmer
degree is awarded annually to not more than two percent
of the membership in the state
With only 196 of the cov
erted degrees being given
out in the state, Lancaster
county captured the lions

county could reasonably ex

county walked off with over
10 per cent of the total.
Six of the degrees were
awarded to 'students from
Solanco where the teachers
of Vocational Agriculture are -
Herbert Heberlein, William
Fredd and Ralph Bitter; five
went to Lampeter Strasburg

er Two went to each of the
following:' Manheim, Joseph
McGahen, and Harold Mc-
Allister, teachers; Warwick
Union, Robert Henney, teach
er; and Pequea Valley, Hen
ry Givler teacher. One de
gree went to students at
Penn Manor, Howard Siglin
and Garland Gingrich, teach
ers; Donegal Union, Grant
Miller, teacher; and Cocalico
Union, Russell Drumm,
teacher
The degree based on Far
ming records, scho’astic and
leadership * accomplishments,
and service rendered by the
