24 TWENTY-THIRD ANNUAL YEAR BOOK— PART I 



SPECIAL COMMITTEE MEETING 

 October 25, 1922 



The meeting of the special committee consisted of the executive com- 

 mittee, Mr. A. C. Tow, superintendent of the swine department and Mr. 

 J. C. Duncan, assistant superintendent, called for the purpose of giving 

 Mr. L. H. Glover of Grandview, Missouri, an opportunity to be heard 

 regarding the 1922 Iowa State Fair. The evidence produced showed 

 that the sow Revelation's Best 298024, shown as a substitute entry at 

 the 1922 Iowa State Fair by L. H. Glover was in fact owned by L. H. 

 Glover and Sophian Farms at the time entries closed at the Iowa State 

 Fair. 



Said sow was shown and won first place at the Missouri State Fair 

 by the Sophian Farms, and was also entered at the Iowa State Fair by 

 Sophian Farms. After a full hearing and Mr. Glover admitted the facts 

 as set out above, Mr. Mullen offered the following motion which was 

 seconded by Mr. Tow and adopted: Resolved that the Iowa State Fair 

 withhold the $15, first prize won by L. H. Glover on the sow Revela- 

 tion's Best 298024, in the class for senior yearling sow, also the third 

 prize of $8 for the aged herd, bred and owned by exhibitor, which herd 

 included the sow Revelation's Best. 



This action was taken in accordance with rules 8 and 10 published in 

 the 1922 Iowa State Fair premium list, which provides that all animals 

 must be entered in the name of the bona fide owner and that all animals 

 must be owned by the exhibitor at the time entries close. 



By motion duly made, seconded and carried, Mr. Glover was requested 

 and consented to refund the $15 paid him at the close of the Iowa State 

 Fair in 1921 on account of showing the boar "Tyes Liberater" in the 

 aged herd class by Glover and Moore. Said showing being in viola- 

 tion of rules 8 and 10 of the 1921 Iowa State Fair. 



The secretary was authorized to deduct the sum of $38 as above 

 enumerated from Mr. Glover's winnings and pay him the balance amount- 

 ing to $125.00.
