Select ing Sport Shoes
Getting in shape is a great
idea, but buying the right pair
of athletic shoes can be
confusing. There's as many
types of shoes as there are
sports. Here's help from
Extension Textiles and Cloth
ing Specialist. Ardis Koester:
"Sneakers are the best all
around sport shoes. They're
available in cotton canvas,
heavy woven nylon and
leather. In the summer, can
vas gives more absorbency,
but leather may last longer.
"If you're interested in one
sport, you probably need
specially designed footwear.
If you run or jog. running
shoes are built for forward
motion with extra padding to
protect our heels. A good
running shoe should also give
flexibility and traction for
running on different types of
. surfaces.
"Tennis and basketball
shix's are built differently with
more support for the ball of
the fool and to withstand
Iwists and turns.
"Whatever type of shoe
you're selecting, try on both
shoes with the socks you'll be
wearing. Comfort and a good
fit are important."

there was a need for an Annex
Building. The Annex was
completed just in time for the
Rodeo that year.
The Fairgrounds were
growing. This kept Floyd and
many others involved to
maintain and present the
Rodeos and Fairs each year.
Through ranchers in the
community. Ralph Beamer
and Floyd Jones were able to
collect 75 cents a head for
everyone running cattle in
Morrow County. These monies
were used to pay Dutch and
Carl Ulrich to build the stock
corrals. Next, the indoor
arena was built by the Fair
Board. The board found that
seating was needed in this
ham so again through dona
tions, they were able to
provide for seats in the arena.
Next came the new grand
stand. It was purchased
through a firm in Texas, with
half of the grandstand arriv
ing when the stand was being
built but. the other half was
