By Alice Vance FAIR FUNNIES Kids were seen sleeping all over the place which is sheer proof that the Morrow County Fair is a "family fair". The strangest place was to find them asleep In one of the pig stalls. Two kids were missing and that was where they were found. One was asleep and the other one almost with the trans ister going full blast! Then there was the pig wear lng the wig and dark glasses. We're not saying who belonged to the wig and the dark glasses . . . but they looked great on the pig too!!

Don't forget Hire a Vet a Turf Builder bmrilefrrali' fordeitkioing a HEPPNER Evaluation of 1971 Way Over Last Year Initial reports from the evalu ator from the Fair Commission have been most encouraging for the people who work so hard to make the Fair better and bet ter. The Fair has been rated high er than last year. Additional points over last year were earn ed by charging admission. Even though the admission charge was nominal, the Heppner High School Cheer Leaders who man ned the gates ' earned consider ably more than they had an ticipated. They got 50 of the gate receipts. Conditions are rated 1 to 10. The theme "Typically Western" received full 10 points. Noted for additional points over last year were the addition of flow er beds and grass. The evaluator had very fav orable comments for the inside of the main building which had been completely repaint e d which made the room much lighter this year. The legs on the tables had been painted so that paper didnt have to go around the base of the table. He was impressed with the num ber and quality of the booths, the entries in cooking and sew ing as well as the others. He was amazed at all the live stock entries and no place to put them. Ten points were also given on the restrooms with the addition of the new ones for this year. He went down town and not ed the lack of signs directing people to the Fairgrounds. , Top priority are the new wash racks before the next Fair and in the not too distant fu ture a new barn which will probably be an L shaped barn beyond the Dairy barn.
