Anyone may enter this contest Just fill out the blank below and bring or send it to the Gazette-Times, Hepp ner, by noon Saturday, April 30. Name Address 1 My suggestion for Parade Theme: Cox is Named To State Office Clair H. Cox, Corvallis realtor, was recently elected second vice president o" Rho Epsilon Kappa, real estate honorary, according to information received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Claude H. Cox, Heppner. He and his wife are owners of the Clair Cox Realtors in Cor vallis. State officers were elected at the professional realtors' spring meeting in Eugene in March. Serving as president is Harold G. Phillios of Bend, with Marj orie O- Cummings, Grants Pass, first vice president; Dorothy F. Hopp, Coo3 Bay, secretary, and Doris L. Cooksey, Roseburg, treasurer. When the tour reached the area used bv the school students to go from the school to the ro deo field for P.K. classes, Jack Grossnickle, grade school prin cipal, joined the spectators and explained to the board the area that needed to be improved hv adding cinder, thus making it safer than having to use the highway as a means of getting to the field. The fair board had approved improving this path way several months ago. Other suggestions that will be looked Into include putting a shade over the rodeo announc er's stand and painting the cor ral chute gates different colors. Upon reaching the new metal barn. Gene Pierce and Fred Mankin demonstrated the an nouncer's new stand and equip ment available (P.A. systems). The fair board's "special thanks" goes to Fred Mankin for collecting, improving and get ting the P.A. system in such fine working order. Fred has worked many, many hours on this project and also built the announcer's stand by himself. Not only has he worked on this project but on many others on the fair grounds, such as super vising the building of 10 new box stalls and being a very en thusiastic and capable superin tendent of the Wranglers Horse Show during the fair. The fair board Is very appreciative of all that Fred has done.
