Seventeen year old Tracy Cuckler of Amesville crowned 1977 queen with Charles France of Athens named king. Both are active 4-H members. Cuckler presides over the Ames-Bern Wonders club and participates in Farm Bureau Youth Council and Junior Fair Board.
The Amesville Cloverettes 4-H Club won best float in Wednesday's Junior Fair parade. The Federal Hocking band and majorette corps opened the event with 22 floats marking the fair since 1851. The winning float showed the first fair board office, a spinning wheel, a kettle of apple butter, a sewing machine and a future computer. Second place went to The Plains 4-H Gardeners with a past to future garden display. Third was Far Fitters with a 4-H Future Fair Machine. Senior Fair Board prizes totaled 100 dollars for first, 75 for second, 50 for third, plus trophies and 10 dollars to all entrants.
Albany Elementary faces space shortage and may relief this year with modular classrooms. The board received one modular bid from Stevenson and Associates for $38,926 for a 28 by 72 building, with smaller sizes priced accordingly. If approved, modular units could be installed by late September for use by the start of the school year.
