His 298 bowling game was just
short of a perfect game as he
bowled strikes until the last
frame. He has been closer to
perfection. He has received a
299 ring six times, and a 300
ring five times.
Shike started bowling 35
years ago when he was six-years-old.
His dad taught him how to
bowl a hook, then his dad stated,
"I didn't teach you that much
of a hook." Once he started to
throw a hook his average rose
from 150s to 190s after about
a year. He said he practiced a
lot, which helped him improve
his game.
He says that everyone has
their own style and if the results
are good, don't change.
Shike bowls in two leagues,
Monday night mixed league and
Wednesday night men's league.
Dennis Thompson received

Family and friends witnessed the joining of Kirby Heath
and Renee Sohappy at their wedding ceremony held
Saturday, March 22, at He He Longhouse.
As many of you know
from experience, weddings do
not run smoothly. But in the
end, the happiness and smiles
of the bride and groom are
the best outcome to a wedding
day.
The wedding of Kirby
Heath and Renee Sohappy was
one full of unexpected things
happening on their big day.
The order of events was
changed a bit but family and
friends used this time to visit
and communicate with each
Other. The best way to do this
is while eating a very good
meal.
The meal was savored and
the bride and groom were at
last ready for the ceremony.
He wore his military garb and
traditional vest with mocca-'

Yards. Twelve heads of cattle
were discovered March 29 at
the stock yards by the State
Brand Inspector, Buck I lodges.
Nickname investigation
grinds to a halt
This will be the last of the
articles on nicknames and their
origins. Spilyay thought it best
to stop digging up old bones.
Going out with a flair with this
last effort here arc the last nick
names we struggled to get.
"Wow!" is usually Wow's expres
sion to everything he hears. Wow
is also known as Patrick
Mitchell.
Pat Gold got her nickname
Pudge because she was a pudgy
child.
Ralph Minnick is also known
as Ushwell, which means little
boy in the Warm Springs lan
guage. Weasel or Willie Sclam, re
ceived his name while in Boy
Scouts. Leader, Irving Shcpard,

consolation is that when our
name is mentioned, people will
know exactly who we are.
