Little Farmer's Giant Pumpkin Brian Hawkins, 13-year-old son of Ann Arbor Police Detective Capt. and Mrs. Walter V. Hawkins, had to wrestle this mammoth pumpkin onto a wheelbarrow to give News Photographer Cecil Lockard a good angle on it. Brian, a junior high school student, has raised more than 30 pumpkins in a patch on his parents' farm at 6810 N. Territorial Rd., Salem Township. But this 98-pound beauty is the largest of the lot. The teen-ager sells his pumpkins and other vegetables each year, with the funds going into a savings account for his college years.
