Young farmers make themselves heard
YOUNG Farmers’ Clubs took part in regular public speaking competitions.
It appears that young and prospective farmers felt the need to speak properly to customers and perhaps even their animals.
Branches from all over the county sent teams to this event at West Oxfordshire Technical College in 1973.
This picture shows the two Oxford junior teams – left to right, A team, Tracey Franklin, 13, Tussel Gee, 15, Christopher Hastings, 12, and B team, Christopher Woodley, 12, Lesley Judd, 15, and Frances Judd, 12.
