Toppling Bricks vs. Facts
Two facta nlus a deduction are capable of producing
a rumor.
Consider Bend's falling bricks on a recent nitfht.
The bricks tumbled to the street at the corner of
Bond and Minnesota, from a cornice of the former Square
Deal Furniture store building.
Earlier in the evening. " "harp blast was heard
throughout Bend, and in some sections of town houses
rattled.
Those are the facts. Now the rumor:
It was reported that the blast had disturbed a lava
ledge sending a tremor rippling through downtown Bend.
As a result, continued the rumor, the bricks fell.
But here are the real facts:
The blast was set off in tin! new acreage adjacent to
the Butler road, in the northeast part of town, about 6
p.m. There was no "quake."
The bricks tumbled, some four hours later, when
television antennae equipment was being moved past the
old furniture store, on a trailer.
The antennae tangled in a cross-street wire used in
stringing street decorations. One end of the wire was at
tached to the cornice of the former furniture store.
And the bricks toppled to the street.
Those are the facts, ma'am.
Horse Sense Pleases
Cutting horse conqietition plays no part in the seloc
tion'of world champion rodeo performers, but, so far as
entertainment is concerned, it is tops.
This competition was a feature of the Deschutes coun
ty fair rodeo this past week end in Redmond. It was a
thriller.
t is a contest in which intelligence of man is subor
dinated to that of his horse. It is a phase of range work
that goes back to the days when cattleVere separated on
the open ranges.
Parr Norton's fine horse, "('hit", was the winner in
the Sunday evening contest in Kedmond.
A fence was improvised in the arena in front of the
crowd-packed grandstand, and range cattle, mostly husky
calves used earlier in roping contests, were driven into
the enclosure.
Each of the four contestants was assigned limited
time to separate calves from the main herd, and keep
them separated. As each calf was skillfully herded away
from the other animals, it found itself between two horse
men. Immediate objective of uiieh. nnintd was to got out
of the pinch.
The cornered animal generally attempted lo get back
to the main herd. But it found its way blocked by a cut
ting horse, movements of which matched those of the
calf.
Kach horse had its rider, but reins were scarcely
touched. The horse did the thinking, and generally antici
pated the lunges of the cornered calf. .
t one phase of the contest, Parr Norton's lithe horse
and the overgrown calf it had cut from the herd met "face
lo face" in the arena.
Kach animal stopped and bocame a statue. Kach
awaited the movement of the other. Like boxers, they ap
peared to be looking deep into each other's eyes.
JThon the calf wildly lunged toward the main herd.
Bul'Chit" was in its way. That ended the attempt. The
horse was winner.
Cutting horses and their riders received fin- ovations
from the crowd. Obviously this added rodeo feature was
likefl.
Separating cattle through use of well trained horses
was, pari ol the work of tin
i..f. . . ,

horje competition is more characteristic of the old west
thai are steer wrestling or hull riding.
jit is a crowd pleasing event, and should be made a

nol.the prowess of the rider, that counts.
