4-H Club Corn
Champions to
Receive Awards
Sixty-three prizes for Georgia’s
1961 4-H corn program champ
ions and their county agents will
be presented at a special awards
luncheon and program Tuesday,
Dec. 5, at the Georgia Power
Company’s 270 Peachtree Build
ing general offices in Atlanta.
Georgia Power, in cooperation
with the Agricultural Extension
Service of the University of
Georgia’s College of Agriculture,
has sponsored the event for the
past 14 years. Each year 12 coun
ties are selected to participate,
with 12 club members represent
ing each county. Banks, Barrow,
Oconee, Elbert, Miller, Grady,
Lanier, Brooks, Pierce, Brantley,
Henry, and Fulton were the coun
ties participating this year.
A 10:45 A. M. tour through the
270 Peachtree Building will pre
cede the luncheon, which is sche
duled for 12:30 P. M. John J. Mc-
Donough, president, Georgia Pow
er Company, will welcome the
group. C. M. Wallace, Jr., vice
president, will present awards,
and W. A. Sutton, director. Geor
gia Extension Service, will ad
dress the group.
A film on growing corn and a
talk by Wayne Crump, Banks
County 4-Her, will be included
in the program.
More than SI,OOO in prizes will
be awarded.
The contest’s objective is to de
monstrate the importance of using
improved methods of corn pro
duction for increasing yields and
reducing production costs per
bushel. L. T. Wansley, rural divi
sion manager of the power com
pany, said that when the program
was inaugurated 14 years ago,
less than 10 per cent of Georgia’s
corn acreage was devoted to hy
brids. Today the figure is more
than 85 per cent.
Ralph Johnson, agronomist and
project leader, and Harold Gur
ley, extension agronomist, are
responsible for conducting the
program with county agents and
4-H clubs.
