The Mount Ayr Chapter of Future Farmers of America is observing its 25th anniversary this week, February 16-23,
during National F.F.A. Week.
Loch Ayr, the old city reservoir, and the Lions Club pond, north of Mount Ayr, were stocked with 9,460 fish
last year, according to the report of Homer BUTLER, president of the Ringgold County Sportsmen's Club.
The Mount
Ayr Raiders made the Lenox Tigers their 16th victim of the season Friday night by a score of 113 to 51.
Two records were broken during the Raiders' conquest of the Tigers. The Mount Ayr team, with its 113 points,
shattered the scoring record of 107 points set in 1960. By scoring 40 points, Jerry WAUGH eclipsed Ken PICKENS'
1955 record of 482 points in 27 games. WAUGH has scored a total of 512 points in 17 contests and has one more
game to play on the season's schedule and at least one in tournament competition.
