John Staley of Mount Pleasant visits the Great Frederick Fair on a drizzly Tuesday to attend Governor's Day with Parris Glendening and an entourage of politicians. Glendening did not appear, so Staley toured 4-H art entries and noted his donation of a savings bond to the winners in both junior and senior divisions.
