Members were urged to attend the Beef Promotions Day on April 26 at Juniper Country Hub at the Airport at Redmond. Mrs Leonmg suggested that members going should take a neighbor who should also be a cowbelle. She said she hoped that she wouldn't see any Cowbelles out beating drums for their cause or marching with placards but that they would take the soft sale approach and show and tell how great beef really is. Beef in the legislature For several sessions of the legislature, the Cowbelles have served a beef dinner in the Senate and House lounges to about 90 members. This spring a change is contemplated. A first is planned. It will be a Beef barbecue, a family affair, at the State Fair Grounds. Steaks will be on the grill for senators, and representatives and their families. The State meeting for Oregon cattlemen and cowbelles will be held in La Grande May 18-19. There will be joint luncheons and banquet. The June issue of the Oregon Cattlemen will feature the Cowbelles.
