ALTOONA The final touches
are being put on the exciting plans
for the Pennsylvania Holstein
Convention, February 21,22 and 23
at the Sheraton Inn, Altoona, Pa.
The Central District Holstein
Breeders are pleased to invite
their many friends to Altoona, the
home of Miss Pennsylvania and
the world famous Horseshoe
Curve, which opened to traffic on
February 15, 1854. People have
always been thrilled by the sijght of
trains circling this great am
phitheatre high in the Allegheny
Mountains and convention par
ticipants will have the same op
portunity in February. With the
coming of the railroad to Altoona,
the area grew into a city and
Conrail is still the major employer.
The Sheraton, located a couple of
miles south of Altoona on route 220
is convention headquarters. All 200
rooms at the Sheraton have been
reserved plus a block of rooms at
the Holiday Inn (formerly Quality
Inn). The Sheraton has a glass
domed heated swimming pool, a
relaxed sauna and a game parlor
with billiards and many other
games. The delightful Tropical
Courtyard and Luxurious Laural
Room provide superb dining while
quality entertainment is provided
at the Grouses’s Nest. Nearby one
will find excellent shopping op
portunities at the Malls and Outlet
Stores. And, if it is sporting ac
tivities that you like, how about

gathering chain silo unloaders.
Select the surface-drive 988 or the
ring-drive RD-820. The Patz gather
ing chain with chain-saw action
cuts out frozen and hard-packed
silage for full-flow feeding.
Spring tension keeps the Patz
power cutter tight to silo walls,
even if walls are irregular.
Choose from three over-under
chain conveyors with varied
capacities and one-way or two-way
delivery. Or, chose a versatile side-
