Loyal Alumnus Fouth, interna
tional grand champion steer, was
on exhibit here at the animal hus
bandry pavilion yesterday after
noon. Loyal Alumnus Fourth, be
ing shown by the Firestone Tire
and Rubber Company, is on a tour
of the United States, which will
probably continue until next Sep
tember, and end at the Columbia,
Ohio, farm owned by Leonard K.
Firestone.
Harvey S. Firestone, who died
just recently, was the farmer pres
ident of the Firestone Company
and owner of the farm. His sons,
under the direction of Leonard K.
Firestone, are continuing the hob
by of animal husbandry of their
father. The sons now own and
manage the farm, taking care of
the animals now bn it, and direct
ing the tour.
Leonard K. Firestone, in taking
his father’s place, bought the third
grand champion steer in 1941. The
other two were bought and ex
hibited in 1938 and 1940. The
showing of the 1938 steer was the
first tour, the second being in
1940. The champion steer of this
year died on the tour in Memphis,
Tennessee; the tour now exhibit
ing Loyal Alumnus took up in
Memphis where the other left off.

In closing out on the cage game,
I would like to pay tribute to the
Aggies and their hard-working
coach, Marty Karow. This is the
best ball club that has been here
in many a year. It did not finish
high up in the standings but it cer
tainly gave the fans their money’s
worth at each and every game they
played. Congrats to Marty in his
first year for putting out a team
that never said “die” and ditto to
the Maroon and White wearers,
who hustled so hard for their
school and coach!

In continuing the work of their
father, the Firestone brothers have
created the Champion Farmers’
Association of America, which con
sists of more than 100 farmers
who have been selected as the
outstanding leaders in their phase
of agriculture.
Loyal Alumnus Fouth, a solid
black steer, is a crossbred animal
resulting from a cross between a
purebred Angus bull and a pure
bred Shorthorn cow.
The grand champion steer trav
els in style, for he rides in a spe
cially constructed land-yacht,
which has, incidentally, white side-
wall tires. The land-yacht has a
spongy flooring to absorb the road
shocks. This is covered with a
layer of straw for further comfort.
There are built in feed bins, flu
orescent lighting, and Venetian
blinds, which have to be kept open
at all times while traveling to keep
the steer quiet.
