Future Farmers of America
The South Kortright Chapter of the Future Farmers of America, composed of 27 members in school and five out of school members, has had a very successful year.
At the Delaware County Fair last summer, Paul Denman placed second in the Better Milking Contest. Our chapter also won over $100 in price money at the fair.
In October, Mr. Palm, Edward Nichols and George Robertson, State Reporter, attended the National FFA Convention in Kansas City, Mo.
On October 17 and 18 Robert Martin attended the Eastern States Expedition in Springfield, Mass. Robert had won second price in the State Poultry Judging contest, which gave him the privilege to represent New York State at the Expedition.
On January 16th Mahlon Weeler, Edward Nichols, Kenneth MacLaury, Roland Dibble, Ambrose DeMoise and our advisor, Mr. Palm, presented a skit written by Edward Nichols entitled "Fire and Safety Control", over station WGY.

On March 25th we attended the county wide spring rally at Delhi, where we won the 1948 basketball championship for the third successive year. Howard Nichols was elected County President and Ambrose DeMoise, Reporter, for the year 1947-48.
We held our annual Father and Son Banquet on April 9th with Mr. Coulter as our speaker. At this banquet, Dr. James Hatch, State FFA Advisor, presented the certificate of Honorable Mention, which our chapter had won at the National Chapter contest, to President Kenneth MacLaury.
