FOWL STYLE SHOW AT FAIR
EXPECTED TO DRAW MANY VISITORS
Superintendent Alba Brooks of
the Fair’s poultry division re
minded exhibitors today not to
forget to plan their costumes for
the fowl fashion show, a part of
the poultry display this year.
Ribbon awards will be offered for
the best dressed fowl (turkey,
goose, chicken, pigeon or duck)
in the show.
The fashion show will be judged
on the first day of the Fair. On
subsequent Fair days, feathered
models will parade in costume
between the hours of two and
three p.m. at the poultry house.
Entries will be judged on the
originality of their costume, ma
terial used and design.
Mr. Brooks also announced that
all fowl and rabbit raisers in the
Valley should begin to plan now
for the Fair, and to groom their
entries for display. He particu
larly asked that any growers of
unusual or rare birds plan to
bring them to the Fair, so that
Fair visitors may see as many
different types of poultry as pos
sible.
Mr. Brooks will be responsible
for feeding, watering and caring
for the poultry displays during
the Fair.
The poultry superintendent fur
ther asked that all exhibitors de
sign a name tag, preferably on
lightweight wood or stiff card
board, to be attached to poultry
cages after judging. Past Fair
visitors have complained because
they cannot learn who blue-rib
bon winners are in the various
departments of Fair exhibits.
Judging will take place on the
first day of the Fair, and exhib
itors’ names may be attached tc
all displays after awards have
been made.

STOCK. KOSLOSKY—

conscious through the crash. Mr.
Koslosky scrambled from the
wreckage first and pulled his pas
senger to safety. Although they
feared fire, the crashed plane did
not burn.
Mr. Stock was most severely
battered because he held a movie
camera on his lap, resulting in
badly bruised ribs.
The pair was given first aid by
Merle Pennington. They then
walked to the Glenn Highway,
where they hitchhiked back to
Palmer, arriving here late Tues
day evening. Neither was hospit
alized by his injuries, although
Mr. Stock sought medical atten
tion.
The crack-up was the fourth
for Mr. Stock in recent years.
Only last year, he was passenger
in a plane piloted by Dr. R. E.
Garrett, which was forced down
by engine failure. On that occa
sion, the pair camped out over
night and finally were returned
to Palmer by a Tenth Rescue
Squadron helicopter. Mr. Stock
was a victim of earlier plane mis
haps at Black Lake (also with Mr.
Koslosky) and in the Big Susitna
River country near Curry.
Each new crop of politicians has
to make a new crop of promises
to get elected.
