PC Farm Boy Worked Hard WINDSOR, Ont. (CP)--Ivan| William Thrasher, a Progres- sive Conservative who won an Ontario byelection Thursday in the former Liberal stronghold of Windsor-Sandwich, describes imself as a farm boy turned politician. In an interview following his victory, Mr. Thrasher said his climb from farm boy to orches- ta leader to dog trainer to re- altor and now to the provincial legislature was accomplished by hard work and organization. "Any youth in this country, with hard work towards a final target, can achieve any suc- cess," he said. Mr. Thrasher, god {niet oft five chil- n } ean n ' i ag i in the youth field.
