EVA MARTIN Maryland Correspondent TIMONIUM. Md. Judging contests have been an essential part of the 4-H dairy and livestock programs in Maryland. Starting at the county level, practices are held for anyone in terested. They give placings and oral reasons to their adult coaches. From this group, a team of four is chosen to represent the county at the state contest held each year at the Maryland State Fair. They compete as county teams and on an individual basis, hoping to be chosen to go to National competi tion. The 4-H’ers work hard from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. judging the class es of animals. During the contest, they are not permitted to com municate with anyone but the su perintendent. Concentrating on each class, they put to use the knowledge their coaches have taught them during the several months of practice in their home counties. Then several hours of waiting as final results are computed. Emotions run high, there is clap ping, cheering and cameras flash ing as parents beam with pride as each individual or team is called to the platform to receive their award for a job well done. The 10 individuals scoring highest in the senior division re main at the fair for two days of coaching and practice. From these 10, four individuals are chosen ac cording to their five highest scores to represent Maryland at the na tional contests.
