Penna Farm Show ends with record beef sale at Harrisburg
Pennsylvania's first lady Mrs William Scranton aided the final day of the snowbound State Farm Show, daubing the nose of the 4 H baby beef grand champion and cheering the bid that set a record price. Rishel of York sold the 865 pound steer for 4 440.40, with Howard Johnson's Restaurants buying the 4H winner for the sixteenth straight year. Attendance on the final day reached 115000, a Friday record, lifting total to 485000 for the show. Next year's show is set for January 9 to 15 and the open class beef competition will be dropped to favor 4H exhibitors.
