According to Roth, the coaches bring their teams because of the quality of animals in the classes. He also noted, “It gives the kids the opportunity to compete in a contest at least as tough as the national contest. Coaches have told me that when the kids go through this contest they are ready for the national contest.” Roth attributed the growth and the success of the contest to a “simple format” which includes competition in three divisions, FFA, 4-H and collegiate. In the 13 years of the contest, there have always been the three divisions with 10 classes in each division. All rules at the Harrisburg contest comply with the national rules. The collegiate contest has shown the most dramatic growth over the years, but 4-H has grown steadily,. with this year’s the largest m that division. FFA consistently . has between six and eight teams at the contest.

It is well run, with good quality cows. It also attracts good quality schools. Next to the national contest, it is the best contest.” Osland says that while the trip is costly for his team, he feels it is valuable and in some years they just fly to the contest and fly right back to California. This year they were able to combine a trip to the contest at the Eastern States Exposition in Massachusetts with their trip to Harrisburg and will spend a few days judging in the East, traveling with other judging teams. , The Cal Poly team is a crack team, having won three of the four (Turn to Page A 33) glliig®THE UNION (si FORK & HOE UnlorJ COMPANY Manure Fork 5 Tines, Spread at points, 9 1 /«”-9‘/j”. 12‘/2”head, >Q QC 48" handle.
