Girl's softball team loses opener The Jefferson County girls soft ball team dropped their opener to the Redmond girls 21-13, at Red mond, during the district play-offs. After losing their first game, this will put them in the loser's bracket and their next opponent will be the loser of the Hood River-Hermiston game. The best this brack can do now is end up in third place. It was a good game as both teams played hard but some minor errors among the team cost them the game. At one point, the Jeffer son County girls led 1 1-6, but then things went wrong and Redmond held up a little better and came away with the win. Both Coach Rick Utter and Manager Lana Adams have worked hard with the girls in preparation for this tourney, but like they say, "That's the way the ball bounces."

Kneeland "on the run" f V N , IV ' Stan Kneeland Stan Kneeland, a member of the Grande Rhonde tribe, has lived in the Warm Sprines area most his life. He has been "on the run" the past six years. Kneeland has been running six days a week since he was 24 years of age. He has partici pated in numerous marathons and runs during this year's season. He said the first three years were not routine but during the last three, running has become second nature to him. He has conditioned himself not only by running but through bicycling as well. His determination and hardwork qual ified him for the Boston marathon in April. Out of 7,000 runners, he placed 901. Stan has a I2-man team entered in the Hood to Coast Run, which will be held August 25 and 26. This competition relay has a total of 750 teams entered from throughout the Continued on page 9 Pendleton Round-Up set for Sept. 13 -16 Horse racing draws members by Elizabeth Cartney Pari Mutuel horse racing started Wednesday July 5 and continued through Saturday July 9, at Prine ville's Crooked River Roundup. The Oregon Racing Commission hosted more than 330 appaloosas, thoroughbreds, and quarter horses that applied for stalls. The first two nights of racing, being on weeknights, the crowd was at a minimum. Friday evening, the crowd thickened and filled the stands. Saturday, the last night of rac ing, the crowd saw a three-way "dead heat" for "show" in race number six. All that means is that three horses came in third place all at the same time and had to share the purse or prize money. The cowboy breakfast was also an attraction on Saturday evening. After the eighth race, outside by the paddock, the Oregon Racing Commission and a few volunteers made a magnificent breakfast. For a small price, you could have fried potatoes, eggs, bacon, biscuits and gravy, pancakes and more. Most of the jockeys at Prineville were females. Most of the major race tracks are dominated by male riders. After the Prineville races, its become apparent where all the female riders are. The leading jockey in Prineville this year was Andrea Beck. It you have any questions about being an owner or a trainer of race horses, you can look to a few of our own tribal members. Jacob Frank and Franklin Suppah forexample, have dealt with the race horse bus iness for many years. Another is Roma Cartney, who after spending a fair amount of time traveling in California training horses at larger race tracks, has moved to Portland for the "simpler" life.
