BY PAT PURCELL
ELIZABETHTOWN (Lancaster
Co.) His name was synonom
ous with “Sexy" and “Quiet”. Sexy
refers to one of the finest Holstein
cows in Pennsylvania, QueCn Star
Sexy and quiet refers to the owner
and exhibitor of the champion,
Thomas McCauley. McCauley
was hnored with the supreme
champion tide for three years in
the six years of showing at the fair.
McCauley and Sexy will not
take home the supreme champion
trophy. McCauley and Sexy were
not in the ring when the grand
champion was selected. For the
first lime in since 1982, McCauley
did not compete at the Elizabeth
town Fair. McCauley is in State
College preparing for the start of
his freshman year at Penn State
University.
However, Irving Myers, , a
Jersey breeder formerly of Illinois
and now the herdman at Em-Tran,
Inc. in Elizabethtown, had no trou
ble filling the void left by Queen
Star Sexy at the Elizabethtown
Fair Dairy Show. Actually two
exceptional dry cows presented
Myers with his most difficult deci
sion of the day. He eventually
made both of these mature cows
his grand and reserve grand
champions.
Joe WivcU’s 4-year-old and and
the 8-year-old owned by Susan
Howes were two lovely bodied
cows, said Myers. The difference
in age made little difference in the
desirability of these two dairy ani
mals. Both had the size and scale,
dairyness, with the correct fore and
rear udder attachment and teat
placement. However, a slight
advantage in the udder tipped the
scales toward WivelTs Doncgal-
Creck Chairman Greta, the dry
cow class winner.
“I must go with the cow today
with her wedding dress on. SHe
has the advantage today,” said
Myers.
As a 3-year-old she produced
18,000 pounds with a 4.0 percent
test. She was due to calf in 10 days
with her third calf. The Elizabeth
town show was a Erst ever for Gre
ta. She is a VG-87. Howes 8-year
old took the reserve grand title.
Howes graciously accepted her
reserve championship, as it is a
custom which McCauley began,
for the grand champion owner to
treat everyone in the dairy show to
a milkshake at the fair stand.
Danielle Ayers captured the
junior and grand championship in
the junior show. Her champions
was an impressive senior yearling,
C Brye Ayer Typcmaker Rose.
Rose was a bargain at $7OO the
price Danielle and her father paid
for her in Canada last year. Joe
Ayers selected Rose because she
was six inches taller than the rest of
heifers and she stood taller in many
ways throughout the show, too.
Myers selected this beautifyl
senior yearling as the supreme
champion of the show.
“This is a big, powerful heifer.
And I don’t usually do this, butl’m
going to have to go with her for my
grand champion. I can’t say
enough about her she's tall with a
lot of style and moves exceptional
ly well on those hind feet and
legs," said Myers.
Justin Howes to the the reserve
junior championship inthe open
show. Senior champion of the
junior show and the grand reserve
title went to Jason Wivell.The
reserve senior champion of the
junior show was shown by Nicki
Wivell. Grand champion of the
junior show went to senior year
ling shown by Danielle Ayers.
Supreme Quality At Elizabethtown Dairy Show
Ayrshire
The Ayrshire junior champion
was exhibited by Angie Spickler of
Mount Joy. This first place inter
mediate calf clean cut on top and
tight in the crop area, carried out
well on the hind feet with good size
and scale. The reserve junior
champion was the intermeidate
yearling heifer calf shown by
Heather Becker of Gap, another
exceptional junior animal. Both
-became the grand champions of
the Ayrshire breed show with no
entries in the cow classes.
Guernsey
The Henisee' family swept the
Guernsey show championships.
John captured the open junior
championship with his senior year
ling. Reserve junior champion in
the open show went to Dave Heni
see who also showed the junior
champion of the junior show.
