For the plow exhibit, R&T is inviting anyone with old
walking plows to bring them along for display.
An “Old Fiddlers Contest” is one of the feature events
for Friday evening. New on the program, R&T says the
venture may become a permanent part of activities in
years to come if it is successful this year. Following the
fiddlers contest there’ll be a slide show either outdoors or
under roof, depending on the weather.
While some of the activities such as carriage and an
tique automobile parade may be hampered by poor
weather, R&T organizers expect that most of the ac
tivities will go on as scheduled. The Kinzer Fire Company
will be providing food for both days. The menu on
Saturday will feature a chicken barbeque, according to-
The Whistle, while on Friday there’ll be plenty of home
made soup
The Rough and Tumble Engineers, says President
Stauffer, represent the interests of anyone “who has
threshing dust in his blood.” Stauffer, a man who ap
preciates fine engineering, confesses to having both
threshing dust and Diesel fuel in his veins. Acquaintances
know him for his interest and dedication to R&T activities,
as well as bis achievements in tractor pulling contests. He
is president of Stauffer Diesel, Inc. and head of a family
which has won national acclaim in tractor pulling con
tests. Stauffer and his sons all drive Deutz tractors and
have won several national trophies.
The Rough and Tumble organization is open to all in
terested persons, regardless of residence in or outside of
Pennsylvania. Membership dues are $5 annually, and
includes free admission to all R&T events. Coming up on
the remainder of the 1978 schedule are the%following
events:
