JT Eva Griffith is guest of chamber "I am very proud to be the Grand Marshall for the 1975 Morrow County Fair and Rodeo and I hope I can do a fine job." said Eva Griffith, speaking before the Chamber of Commerce Monday. She also said that she was the second Rodeo Queen for Morrow County and was selected for the honor in 1923. There were no princesses at that time, however. Janie Allstott was my attendant and we rode side by side in the parade." continued Mrs. Grif fith. Al the time she was queen Mrs. Griffith was only 14 years of age and she remark ed. "Both Janie and I were too young to have any fun." She described the outfit she had worn as queen saying the skirt was fringed leather as was the vest. The shirt had long sleeves and the felt hat had a large brim. The only other competition the Queen and her attendant participated in during the year was the Happy Canyon Show and the Pendleton Round Up. She admitted that she is doing some riding to prepare for the part she will play as Grand Marshall in the Par ade. She concluded her talk by citing the differences in the rodeos of yester year as compared to todays show. "There were no chutes in those day? and if a cowboy wanted to ride a bucking horse he mounted the horse in the center of the ring and the horse and rider were turned loose. If the cowboy was able to ride the horse back to the judges be was usually a winner in the event . There was no eight second time limit as today, you either rode the horse or walked back.
