Times-Advocate, 1982-07-21, Page 1212 Times -Advocate, July 21,1982 TROHY WINNERS —MikeAnstett presents Cathy Love, RRI Zurich, with a trophy for having the top 4-H dairy and beef coif at the Zurich Fair. 118th fair well attended Even rain couldn't d�nipen fair spirits Though Saturday's rain delayed several events at the Zurich fair it did not deter those watching nor taking part in events. Fair secretary Margaret Diechert noted that several horse teams planning to march in the parade withdrew, but the remaining participants took part. A drenching rain fell on Zurich at the 12:30 start time. but the parade went ahead after about a 15 minute delay. Later in the day, about 4:30. crowds gathered to watch the magic show and horse shows. As the skies began to turn dark. most made a quick retreat to the shelter of the arena. A Rubik's cube competition for the children was to be held at the picnic pavilion along with the magic show, but it was moved into the auditorium. The midway was the big victim of the rains. The horseshow was delayed for about a half-hour but most of the concession stands closed up and midway operators began dismantling their rides as the rain tapered off. Official opening of the fair was Friday night along with the 4-11 skits and talent show, and the queen of the fair contest. Vicki Mann of Hensall was crowned Queen of the 1982 fair later, during the fair dance. Though momentarily trap- ped by the rain inside the arena, those attending the fair got a chance to see the finals of the Molson's wrist wrestling championship. Winners in the various weight classes were: up to 140 pounds: Karmen Bedard, runner-up Darren Alexander; 141 to 160 pounds: Doug Ducharme, runner-up Dale Alexander; 161-180 pounds: Jeff Forrester, runner-up Chris Groot; 181 to 200 pounds: Jeff Forrester, runner-up Dennis Jeffrey; 201 and over pounds: Robert Jef- frey, runner-up Dan Turkheitn. The women's open class was won by Vat Minhin-. nick with Wilma Jobs as runner-up. The majority of the special awards for the agricultural, ladies work and school ex- hibits have yet to be tallied by fair organizers. An unofficial count showed that Cliff Pepper dominated the standard exhibition in the poultry contests. Pepper took the ribbon for champion cock and hen in the class and also won 39 first places in the various sub -classes. Wayne Kerr of Kincardine took 12 awards in the stan- dard classes and 18 awards and the championship hen ribbon in the bantam class. Emery Baechler of Goderich won eight first in the pigeon classes and also took THIS COULD HURT — Heather Westlake seems.a little unsure of herself at the moment of truth. Mr..Magic, John Parker was threatening to chop off her'head. The show was part of the Zurich fair and was held at the picnic pavilion on the arena grounds. _tuuuuunttttttnrtturuun.uuunntt, ....
