IMHO, the passage on page 38 is telling us that you can not refuse to give
the one and only entry of Blue Sapphire a blue ribbon just because it was
the only entry. You also could not refuse to give it a blue because it was
the only TB. The passage on page 42 gives the requirements for awarding a
rosette or section certificate. If Blue Sapphire were the only TB entered
you could not award it a Best of Section rosette or certificate by itself.
However, you could combine it with other iris, as in all of the other
beardeds at a show in order to make a section that meets the requirement of
3 exhibitors and 5 entries and then give it a section rosette or
certificate. They are also eligible to become Best Specimen of Show.

Page 38 says "Single entries in a group must not be barred from
consideration
for awards simply because they are a lone entry in that group. However,
page
42 says, "Awarding of a Section certificate/rosette requires at least three
(3) exhibitors and at least five (5) cultivars in the Section....so, should
the statement on page 38 specify which awards a single entry must not be
barred from, because they are obviously not eligible for the Rosette
according
to page 42.
