and has since maintained it. He
holds two county poultry medals
and in 1962 his broilers rated a
blue ribbon at the county show.
He has placed in two state
contests, electric and shrub
identification, and has served as
president and council delegate
of his local club.
Diers was also named as the
Gold Star Boy for Stonewall
County, names being released
by J. G. Simmons, District
Agent of Vernon, Texas.
Billie Ann is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Vahlen-
kamp; is completing her sixth
year as a 4-H member and is
considered an outstanding poul-
try producer. She is a Gold Star
girl and has exhibited blue
ribbon broilers at both the
county show and the State Fair
of Texas. Her poultry projects
have included 350 broilers and
275 laying hens to give her a
good balance in her poultry
studies. She has been a member
of two poultry marketing dem-
onstration teams and has given
individual demonstrations o n
egg candling and other subjects.
She is an excellent speaker and
an active worker in church,
school and community affairs.
Nancy is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Herbert Vahlenkamp,
is completing her fourth year of
highly successful 4-H Club work
and in 1961 and 1962 was a
member of the county poultry
marketing demonstration teams
which placed well in the state
contests. She has raised 250 broil-
ers, 200 pullets and her laying
flock in 1961 numbered 250
hens. She holds blue ribbon
awards from both the county
show and the State Fair of
Texas on broilers and pullets.
Her success as a demonstrator
along with her outstanding
junior leadership record were
major factors in her being nam-
ed a state winner.
County Agent Truett Hennig
was selected as the official state
delegation chaperon primarily
because of the outstanding coun-
tywide 4-H poultry program he
has directed in Stonewall county
and because three of the four
"tate winners in the Junior
Poultry Fact Finding Program
crime from the county he serves.
The fourth member of the Texas
delegation will be Roy Novosad
of Brazos county.
During Hennig's service in
Stonewall county, all phases of
4-H Club work have shown re-
markable progress. Club mem-
bers from the county have com-
piled outstanding records in
many state contests and the list
can be expected to grow since
many of the winners still have
years of active participation to
go.
The state 4-H Club office an-
nouncement said that it was un-
usual for so many project win-
ners in a state contest to come
from one county and was most
complimentary in their remarks
about the latest achievements
for the 4-H members of Stone-
wall county and their local
adult leaders. Only one other
county, Brazos, equalled Stone-
wall's 1962 record of four state
winners.
