ONLY FATHER-SON TEAM

Alex Vic-Kinney. president of the Canadian Plowing Council reaffirmed yesterday that Stan- ley Willis and his son Cari are the only father-son team In Ce.- nadian championship plowing history. A father-son, back to back victory in the big meet would be even more of a novelty.

Stanley won te Canadian match last year by the wide ‘ margin of 20 points. Nobody else was even close to him. several plowing observers observed yes‘ terday to this paper.
