WHAT WILL BECOME OF
DOMlNGUEZ SILVER TROPHY?
question Arises Since Corn show ON
GERS Eliminated Student JudE-
Ing Contest.

What will become of the solid silver
trophy given by Senor Zeferino Dominique
TO the students judging team winning the
highest number of points at the National
Corn exposition?
rms Is the question worrying the man
OF the exposition, since the de-
clsion OF the vice presidents and executive
to eliminate the students iudR-
ing contests for which the trophy was
offered and last year won by Iowa.
Senior Dominguez wanted to offer the
handsome trophy for a grain exhibit that
1t might be passed around among MANY
growers during many years. But j. Wilkes
Jones thought not and induced the Mexican
philanthropist to offer the 1850 trophy to
the students judging team.
This was a walkaway for Iowa. where
Jones came from last. The Iowa students
took the solid silver bust of President Diaz
back to Ames, and there 1t remains. AS n
was offered for students Judging tea ms
and there will be no further contests. the
question arises whether Ames viii insist
on holding the trophy permanently or
offering it as a prize for some other com
petition.
None of the other agricultural colleges
pretends to give the training in Judging
which the Iowa State college gives.
Whether Manager Jones knew this or not
when he decided to give the handsome
Dominguez trophy to a students Judging
team is a matter of conjecture.
The solution Of the problem probably will
be that the students team which won
after consulting Zeferino Domlnguez. viii
offer the trophy for some purpose and thus
enable the big prize to be passed around.
