RODEO
Continued from Page A1
Other competitors were
Wyatt Warnock of Joseph,
Devin Patton of Joseph and
Rawley Bigsby of Joseph.
Clancy Warnock’s rock
jack sold Saturday evening and
“add ons” took the bid to $350.
That money goes into the bank
for the heifer scholarship
account. The entire field of
rock jack builders also pitched
in to build the stretch jack (a
larger style rock jack), which
sold for $1,350. That money
was passed on to the Del Stan-
ley family. Stanley sustained
injuries June 27 when an aneu-
rysm caused him to fall from
his horse and be dragged.
