Bill, you remember a fellow named Clyde Hyde from the late 60's early 70's? Was from Illinois and used 20" gleaner heads.

Big Orange, I don't know about Clyde Hyde, but I remember reading in Succesful Farming from October of 1973 about a Clyde Hight who was a corn innovator from Illinois who started using 20" rows and a Gleaner combine back in 1965 (I'm assuming this is the same guy. When you mentioned the name, it rang a bell and I went and found the magazine. I wish I could post pictures because they have a picture of his gleaner from 1965. Anyone out there got email that I can send this picture to? If so,send me an email. scotgros@usmo.com

I think you'll find the same picture in Wendel's book, pg. 79, Mowequa, Ill. I also remember the story in SF Magazine. Yes, his name was Clyde Hight. Worked with AC in developing the 20 inch head.
