to 113, and cainod first place
rarnincs in that event. He al
so received a pair of bareback
chaps from Severe Bros, of rcn-
dleton.
Ken Wellinc of Salem was
first in bull riding with a score
of 56 for the sincle co-round
and he won a trophy buckle
from Ron Loonmg of the ag
on Wheel Lounge. Harry Noble
was first in saddle bronc riding
and received a silver buckle
from Cornott Green Feed as a
trophv.
'Hard Luck Boy Picked
It wasn't hard to determine
winners in the "Hard Luck Cow
bov" competition. Bob Rowland
of Salem tangled with a bull
Saturday afternoon. It appeared
that the bull stepped on his
chest or struck his Jaw with a
leg. He suffered a concussion,
was taken to the Pioneer Mem
orial hospital and remained
there unconscious for some time.
He then improved and Monday
was released. Needless to say,
this brought him the "Hard
Luck" award from the New York
Store. Pendleton. Saturday, the
award being a Bailey fur felf
hat.
On Sunday afternoon, Simon
(Butch Winters of Heppner
took a nasty blow when he
was bucked off his horse in the
opening bareback event. He al
so was taken to the hospital for
observation but was released la
ter, apparently not seriously
hurt. This made him "Hard Luck
Cowboy" ior Sunday and he,
too, received a Bailey fur felt
hat from the New York Store.
Only other casualty among
the performers was Joe Rosen
berg who took a hard hit in
saddle bronc riding Sunday that
Jarred him. He had to perform
in the bulldogging next, and
took a bruising in that event,
too. The Pendleton cowboy was
pretty well buffeted and later
was taken for a checkup but
suffered no serious hurts.
Hot weather of the preceding
day moderated for the rodeo
weekend, and the performances
were in near-perfect weather,
with a total of 181 entrants
competing. A few drops of rain
fell Saturday night and again i
Sunday but not enough to wet
the grounds.
Gate Receipts Up
All performances were lively,
and the crowds were larger than
last year. Tad Miller, rodeo
chairman, and the other direct
ors were encouraged by the con
siderably larger gate receipts
and much credit was given Joe
Balfe and his Chamber of Com
merce crew for their fine work
in selling and taking tickets,
and in controlling the gates.
Performances by the Salem
Saddle Club drill team added
color and interest to the pro
grams as they came back for
their third consecutive year,
doing such intricate maneuvers
on horseback as threading the
needle by the numbers.
Another attrac t i o n that
brought admiration from the
rodeo crowds was the six-horse
hitch of the La Grande Live
stock Commission Co. The hors
es weigh about a ton each with
one going at 2350 pounds. They
were the center of interest ior
those who admire fine and well
trained horses.
The labors of Miller and his
directors was evident in the
smooth operation of the three
shows. All the directors had
done their planning well, and
it showed in the performances.
Secretary John Venard was one
of the busiest persons in town
and received helpful clerical
aid from his wife, Clista. Tim
ers were Biil Collins and Arch
ie Munkers who were vital to
the success of the show. Ray
French handled the calf chutes,
and Charley Daly had one of
the tough working jobs in hand
ling the bucking chutes. He al
so was in charge of prizes.
Virgil Chapman again did a
fine Job as field judge, and
pickup men included Norm Dur
fey, Frank Johnson, Jack McCar-
ty, and Leroy Van Belle. Les
Patterson was hired by the ro-1
aeo as judge or the bucking
events and the cowboys elected
Harry Noble from among them
on Saturday and Bill Herrera
on Sunday.
Joe Daley Praised
Joe Daley received plaudits
from everyone for his work as
announcer.
"I think he did one of the
finest jobs as announcer I've
ever heard," Chairman Miller
said. The rodeo head also had
praise for John Irwin, the clown,
of Tacoma, not only for his hu
morous antics but for his help
in other ways through the
shows.
Director Bill Healy had some
problems with the races, one of
which erupted in an impromptu
battle on the field between par
ticipants, but he proved that he
was capable in handling the
