PAGE 10 JUNE 30, 1978 LOCALS DO WELL AT CHEMAWA INVITATIONAL The Chemawa Invitational Golf tournament held June 16 and 17 in Salem, Oregon drew about 20 golfers. Levi Bobb and Satch Miller, both of Warm Springs, entered in the 1st flight division. Levi had scores of 80 and 78 to take first place honors. Satch Miller took second place with scores of 77 and 85. Satch said that a lot of these smaller Golf tournaments are just warmups for the Fried Bread Open Golf tournament, held annually here at Kah-Nee- Ta. Both Levi and Satch played in the 6th Annual Fried Bread Open which took place Saturday and Sunday, June 24 and 25. SP O R T S JACKSON WINS FRIED BREAD OPEN The w inner of the cham p ionship flight of last weekend’s Fried Bread Open golf tourna- rr^ent a t Kah-Nee-Ta was not playing like a champ on Satur day. But by Sunday Charles Jackson w as hot and the re st were not and he walked away a winner. “All the luck that eluded me on Saturday managed to catch up with me on Sunday,” Jackson rem arked later. His eight over par improved overnight to a one under par for a combined gross of 147 on 36 holes. He wound up ju st one point ahead of second place Louie Pitt. ¡L Jackson, who was club cham pion of the Kah-Nee-Ta Keeping his head down a t the 7th tee below Kah-Nee-Ta Lodge, Men’s Golf Association in 1976, Charles Jackson showed the style that earned him the championship attributed his most recent suc of the Fried Bread Open June 24-25. Jackson birdied that hole, a par - cess to “ proper training the on 523 yards. CDS Photo night before and keeping my head down.” Pointers from Kah- Nee-Ta golf pro Jim Wilkinson proved to be helpful. Admitting that he has been known as a one tournam ent a season golfer, Jackson said he expects to play more this year. Perhaps his $150 gift certificate for the P ro Shop was p a rtia l incentive. O ther locals fared well in the classic tourney, now in its sixth year. Levi Bobb took low net in the first flight with a 130. Mark Massey won low gross in second flight with a 163. Over $2000 in merchandise prizes were awarded. A raffle at the special banquet S aturday night produced a host of other w inners, who took home such valuable items as a wrist watch, golf accessories, beadwork and gift certificates. AT THE WARM SPRINGS ALL-INDIAN RODEO The lucky contestants had good rides as the calves, bulls and horses plummeted and plunged with their riders, pleas ing the participants and the capacity crowd. The unlucky ones had less fortunate sittings on their animals, being routinely dumped in the dust and muck of the arena and occasionally mumbling something about “sunny beaches” . , In som e unplanned rodeo action, D elvis H eath had a run-in with a rather large, surly, and thankfully hornless bull. The rider was temporarily atop the bull, only to be angrily shed after a short ride. After reach ing the chutes he must have recognized “ Bullneck” from . somewhere, and trotted over to give him an affectionate, but sound, butt on the chest. After discovering that the “tender feelings” were not re turned, the bull again trotted around the arena and repeated the action twice more. Needless to say, Heath, who was unhurt, quickly climbed the fence to escape anymore close encount ers of the bull kind. The weather cooperated with the rodeo this year, keeping to a comfortable 70 degrees or so throughout the weekend. The sun did shine ipore on Sunday, thus increasing the sales at the concession stand,- keeping the workers on their toes. The wind and dust blew some, leaving all spectators a bit gritty and teary eyed by the end of the day. All around trophy saddle went to Lee Tom and top money winner buckle went to Fred Williams.

Í, Planned Or Not There Were Wild Rides For Some left disappointed, and others left elated over the out come of the Warm Springs All- Indian ROdeo June 24 and 25.: Some left with buckles and bucks while others were saddled with “goose eggs” and the faint memory of applause.
