A large crowd of boxing fans Ignored a snow storm to cone out and cheer.the group of fight- ers from RCAF Stations Clinton, Aylmer and Centralia. The excitement started early in the show, when LAC Palmer, Clin- ton, in the second preliminary fight won a TKO over AC2 Stevens also of Clinton. AC1 Ppciuk, built like a locomotive, was matched a- gainst wiry Flight Cadet Voivin. Pociuk staggered Boivin twice in the second round and won the de- cision in the third. AC1 Gilmour was fast and furious in his fight against AC1 Moreau, In the sec- ond round Moreau opened up and slugged hard and furiously. But Gilmour never slowed down the pace and finally won the decision. F/C Jonsson, Clinton, carried the slugging to LAC Curry throughout the eight bout in a hard hitting fast three rounds, winning the bout. During intermission a specialty bout was staged. Four airmen of RCAF Station Clinton, Aircrafts- rnen Shriner, pillion, Murphy, and Hayward entered the ring blind- folded.

Dougall, Hen - with sticks covered. with boxing gloves soon got the action under way. The four blindfolded boxers let loose with all they had and it looked like a riot had broken loose in the centre of the ring. No one was hurt but there were a few anxious minutes for thespectators. The final fight .ended the boxing show with two of the hardest fought minutes of the evening. AC2 Dunstan, Clinton, formerly of Australia, has fought several times before and was the favourite, LAC Kempster, his opponent from Cen- tralia obviously hadn't heard of the "Aussie's" reputation. At the 'sound of the bell Dunstan, lithe as a cat lunged at Kempster only to find he was running into a brick wall. Kempster let fly a straight right jab flooring Dunstan who took a manditory eight count, The "Aussie" got back -'up, but Kemp-_ ster's sharp jabbing sent Dunstan to the mat for a second time. Dun- stan displayed great fighting and courage as he walked into the ram -rod for the third and last time as Kempster let loose for a knockout. The judges for the boxin show were Wing Commander B. 12filer, Squadron Leader G. Bury, and Flight Lieutenant S. Kerr. Pro- `moter for the show was F/O L. Smith. Chief handler for the box- ers was Sergeant Dick Allen. Everyone felt the show was a great success and are looking for- ward to more fistic events in the future.

R. Dougall, county weed in- spector, said that weed control is something that applies to every farmer. He said that there were in 1953, six townships in the county that sprayed all their roads, while several others spray- ed and mowed weeds as well. G, W. Montgomery, inhis report of the 1953 activities reviewed the first annual banquet being held, a bus trip to the provincial convention, the Seed Fair in March in which 59 exhibitors sub- mitted close to 150 exhibits; a twilight meeting in July; a one- day bus trip in August in Lincoln County; a county thorn and brush control day in October, 1Vfr. Montgomery said that the association also carried on plot - work during the year — two rod row plots of barley, soybean tests at the South Huron District- High School, Exeter; silage and grain test; corn tests at each of the five district high schools in the county; laid down new pasture plots at the Huron County Horne; and operat- ed a 50 -bushel wheat competition in which 50 contestants partici- pated.

"Farmers' cost`of production has become out of bounds," said Mr. Bolton,/who added that he is glad to see that there is some move in marketing, C. H. Kingsbury, Guelph, field - man, crops, seeds and weeds branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture, as guest speaker, out- lined the work of the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Associa- tion, and also the activities that are being carried on by neighbor- ing county organizations. Mr. Kingsbury said that the corning year will see the forage program from the department changed, and that emphasis will be shifted from the mixtures to management, thus the beginning of a "managed -pasture program." He suggested each county set up a pasture -management committee, which would be responsible for selecting sites for the mixtures, to work with the co-operator, advis- hg him on pasture management, and to keep records to learn what benefits are gained from pasture - management. Reportson Clubs Harold Baker, assistant agricul- tural representative for the county reported on the grain and forage clubs in the county—the Exeter 4-H Grain Club, the McKillop 4-11 Grain Club and the Blyth 4-H Forage Club. He said that the forage club which was organized in 1953 and which is the only one of its kind in the county, was an excellent idea. It has a member- ship of 14, and is sponsored by the . Blyth Agricultural Society, with Harry Sturdy as club leader. Speaking briefly at the meeting were H. Strang, Elmer Robertson, Goderich, a former county presi- dent, Dick Procter. R. Ethering- ton, and W. J. Turnbull.
