Ford takes third at calling contest

Elijah Ford, a fifth-grader at Jackson's North Elementary, finished third at the National Wild Turkey Federation sanctioned calling contest held at the Quad Lakes Winter Expo in Clinton, Mo., recently.

It was Ford's first contest, and he was the lone participant who used his natural voice, instead of a friction call or mouth reed. He was the youngest caller at the event.
