Laurel Dale Wins Judging at Western Laurel Dale's victory at the Western Fair is described in the Free Press: A pretty 16 -year-old farmer's daughter outclassed nearly 100 boys at Western Fair Monday, and set a precedent by becoming the first girl to win the 4-11 jun- ior championship for livestock judging and farm know-how. Laurel Dale, of R.R. 1, Clinton, became the pride of Huron coun- ty without realizing it—she was- n't told she had won the. Canad- ian Bank of Commerce wrist watch until supper time. Donald Pullen, 90, of RR 1, Granton, won the'senior championship and an- other wrist watch. But Laurel was the darling of the show. She bested 118 other contestants, including 20 girls, the first time she has won a ma- jor prize at any fair. "It was a complete surprise," she admitted, mentally counting the odds. There were nearly 500 boys and girls entered in 9-H contests this year, the largest number since Western Fair be - gen sponsoring 4-1-1 events nine years ago. The 119 junior and 90 senior contestants in Monday's contests each judged two classes of beef cattle, two of dairy, a class of hog carcasses, answered ques- tionaires on dairy and poultry exhibits, and a quiz on the rights and wrongs of a typical Ontario farm, Laurel credits the Seaforth 4-11 Calf Club for teaching her -the winning technique, and not her father, William Dale, who judged horses at last year's Western Fair. She's a grade 13 student at Seaforth District 1:ligh School, and next year plans to enter the Ontario Teachers' College at Stratford. W.
