Four Eastern Iowa FFA chapters earned top placements in the Building Our American Communities contest at the state convention. Reinbeck took second for a park project, Decorah third for Nordic Heritage, Strawberry Point fifth for Impact, and Vinton sixth for Rejuvenation and Promotion. The Iowa FFA degree was awarded to 300 members from 146 schools with 57 Gazette area winners listed. On this date in 1906 the San Francisco earthquake began, killing nearly 500 and leaving over a quarter million homeless.
