CHEROKKE, IA. (JP) A large entry list of plowing experts is expected for the twenty-sixth annual Pilot-Rock plowing match to be held on the John E. Eischen farm Wednesday and Thursday.

Officers of the association sponsoring the meet have decided to reduce the prizes 25 per cent from those of last year, but they will be paid in full rather than prorated according to available funds. Only one professional class event will be held, this to include both tractor and horse drawn plows. There were two distinct classes last year. Those eligible for this class are winners of sweepstakes in the various di visions. Plowing matches are open to all comers, but the livestock, poultry and women's competition are lim ited to residents of Cherokee county.

Those who are not interested in watching the plowing matches will have plenty of other amusement watching six kittenball games, scheduled for the morning and evening or each day. Boy "jockeys" with Shetland ponies will compete in a special race for these animals, and several foot races are on the program, as well as a riding contest and a horse pulling contest. 3 in Marshalltown Held for Car Theft (Tta Trlbune'i Iowa News Service.)
