At the American Royal, roadsters and carts are loaded onto a horse trailer for the journey home. Two men, one pulling and one pushing, used two specially built ramps to lift the carts atop the trailer. The carts went on first, followed by the horses for the long trip home.
The American Royal featured a record market lamb sale with 140 animals. Local 4-H exhibitors Fred Vulgamore and Marie Chambers sold lambs for 80 and 74 cents per pound, reflecting strong demand as the Royal showcases multiple cattle and sheep auctions and the Simmental and Hereford sales.
Judy Davis of rural Wellsville volunteers to crochet 85 pairs of house slippers in four weeks for Gardner Manor Nursing Home residents, aided by Full O'Pep 4-H Club mothers and four young helpers, while also organizing a lap robe project for a quadriplegic resident. An energy essay contest for Kansas high schoolers is announced with $100 top prize.
