More than 50 Champaign County 

 Farm Bureau, Home Bureau, University, 

 and Association of Commerce members 

 and officials will work on the above 

 and other committees. 



A fine lot of trophies have been pro- 

 vided for the winners in the major 

 events. More than 450 ribbons for in- 

 dividual contestants in the top three plac- 

 ings will be awarded. There will be 

 prize awards for those who register in 

 the various contests, as listed in the de- 

 tailed program on page four. 



The approximate location of the many 

 events can be determined by studying the 

 plat on pages six and seven. Bring this 

 copy of the RECORD with you to the 

 Festival. It will help you find your way 

 around. A few last-minute changes in 

 the program may be found necessary. 



The Champaign County Farm Bureau 

 and the Association of Commerce are 

 cooperating in working out sleeping facil- 

 ities in the many private homes and stu- 

 dent rooming houses for those who come 

 Friday. If you have made no advance 

 reservations go to the information booth 

 Friday morning at the men's new gym- 

 nasium for assignments. 



There are rest rooms and toilet facil- 

 ities in the various University buildings, 

 at the stadium and also at Illinois Field. 

 It is planned to provide drinking water 

 for the teams and contestants. 



There will be loud speakers at Illinois 

 Field and at the stadium for the program 

 Friday night. In addition it is planned to 

 have a sound truck available for broad- 

 casting information around the campus. 



Assistant Dean Hudelson will conduct 

 experiment station tours, leaving the New 

 Ag Building at 4:00 P. M. Friday and 

 at 8:00 A. M. Saturday. Farmers will 

 be enabled to see some of the crops in 

 the rotation as they reach maturity. 



It is planned to have the various res- 

 taurants and cafeterias around the campus 

 as well as in Champaign and Urbana, 

 ready to serve a large crowd. 



Here's an opportunity to spend a 

 couple of days in pleasant surroundings 

 at the first event of its kind ever held in 

 the Middle West. We'll be looking for 

 you.

All hope of D. Cremin, Lake Coun- 

 ty's batsman, winning the batting 

 championship in the Illinois Farm Bu- 

 reau Baseball League went glimmering 

 when he was held to one hit in five 

 times at the plate by Fogelsong, De- 

 Kalb's star pitcher Aug. 15. The race 

 is between Murphy of Adams and 

 Keine of Lake. Foglesong is out of the 

 running with a broken arm.
