For his many years of leadership in applied animal science breeding and on behalf of industry associates and long-time friends, he was presented with an engraved silver plaque, a bound volume of letters, and a $1,600 purse available upon retirement for travel of his choice. The National Association's President, W. L. Campbell, unveiled a large picture of Harry to be hung in the NAAB office in Columbia, Missouri. L. R. Timberlake, Austin, Texas, was the luncheon speaker.
