(Photo Courtesy Western World, Bandon) Bandon Has Ninth Annual Berry Festival Ninth annual Bandon (Oregon) Cranberry Festival was one of the most successful affairs yet with a big parade, "Cranberry Fair", queen contest and coronation. The queen of the festival was Miss Gar- ene Stone, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Garland Stone of Bandon, a junior at Bandon High School. She received gifts of jewelry and other presents as did all the prin- cesses of her court. The parade was led by veterans' associations, with Mrs. H. C. Mess- eril's 4-H group, taking first in civ- ic and fraternal float contest with a representation of "Cranberry Court, 1960." First in the comnrer- cial section was Dick Terp, Ban- don grower with his entry, "Latest on the Bogs — Terp's Modern Wheelbarrow," a motorized bar- row which he uses in cranberry operations. The "Cranberry Fair" exhibit, sponsored by the Bandon Home Ex- tension unit, had 65 junior and 58 adult entries. There were two commercial displays, one of "Ocean Spray", and the other by the "Three J Farms". Grand champ- ions in the adult classes included Mrs. Paul Colgrave, canned fruit; Mrs. T. W. Panter, culinary; Mrs. William Johnson, decorative; and Johany Loshbaugh, fresh fruit. Fresh fruit awards, Stanley Stan- kavich variety, Ennis Loshbaugh, blue ribbon; Marion Wilson, red ribbon; Stankavieh field run, L. M. Kranick, blue; McFarlin, Johnny Loschbaugh, blue ribbon and grand champion. CRANBERRY BOY AND GIRL ON TELEVISION The Cranberry Boy and Girl of 1955, Kenneth Nye, Wareham high seliool senior and Miss Diane Hilliard, Sandwich high school senior, who received National Cranberry Association scholarship of $250 each at the annual Cranberry Harvest Festival, Eda- ville in September appeared Nov. 9 on the "Today" Dave Garroway TV show. Appearance on this early morning progi'am viewed by millions in the east and mid-west, was about 8:30. The pair was in- troduced by Miss Lee Merri- wether, former Miss America, and each spoke briefly upon cranberries. Note: The show seemed very brief on N. E. TV stations, but we are informed Miss Hilliard, Nye and Garroway, hinjself, were in view for about 15 minutes to mid- West viewers, and cranberries re- ceived a good "plug". Mr. Nye and Miss Hilliard had been flown to New York from , Boston the day before and were given a sight-seeing tour of the "big city" before returning. Fifteen
