Meat In Snowdon House
Presents No Problem
Well-selected cuts of meat should be order of the day in
the future home of Sandra Snowdon, junior in animal hus
bandry, of Allison Park.
The 20-year-old blond coed proved her adeptness in the
meat field by becoming the first woman to record the highest
individual score at the American
Royal Livestock Show in Kansas
City, Mo,
She won first place in pork
judging and tied for second place
in beef rating.
Miss Snowdon is one of the
star members of Penn State's
meat judging team. Her proud'
coaches, Glenn R. Kean, associate'
professor and acting head of the
department of animal husbandry,
and P. Thomas Zeigler, professor
of animal husbandry, are full of
praise on her outstanding abili
ties.
Was Promising Sophomore
Kean and Zeigler say Miss
Snowdon showed promise as a
sophomore last spring,• turning in
outstanding work in the begin
ners' meat judging course. She
was one of six top students select
ed for the advanced course this
fall.
In the meat judging, Miss Snow
don says she takes into consider
ation the confirmation (shape),
finishing (fat cover), and general
quality. Her abilities in rating
beef, pork and lamb were de
veloped in University courses
which include selecting a dif
ferent cut for each use.
No Definite Plans
She has no definite plans for
The future but intends to follow
the meat fields after graduation
in 1958.
The coed says she isn't sure how
she became interested in animal
husbandry. She says it probably
develped while working on her
parents' eight acre farm; known
as Spruce Knoll Farm, at Allison
Park, near Pittsburgh.
Miss Snowdon has had a horse
since she was 10.
In addition to starring on the
meat judging team, she is a mem
ber of the Block and Bridle Club.
She is looking forward to compe
tition Nov. 27 at the International
Livestock Exposition in Chicago,
