Queen Mary Anne Proctor
rises to the occasion(s)
The roping and riding have taken a back seat this year on
Mary Anne Proctor's priority list.
Instead, she is more likely to find herself standing at a
speaker's diaz, reminding the audience not to miss an
upcoming rodeo. And as Queen of the Morrow County Fair
and Rodeo Court, she has done a lot of reminding lately.
The appearances began the first week in May at Arlington
and will continue through the Pendleton Round-Up in
September. The luncheons, banquets, parades and rodeos
don't leave much time for Queen Mary Anne to do much
rodeo gaming of her own.
"Sure I miss it," she said. "I've been involved in rodeo
beginning with Pee Wee events and continuing up through
last year's Junior Rodeos. But this year I just can't fit it into
my schedule."
' Although her Court activities don't allow her the time to
compete, she enjoys her new role as publicist for the summer
schedule of events.
"It's a big responsibility. I'm the one who gives the talks
and makes a lot of the decisions for the group," she said.
Mary Anne has enough experience with various Courts to
know which decisions to make. She was a Princess on the 1975
Morrow County Fair and Rodeo Court and was also a
Princess on the 1973 Umatilla Sage Riders Court.
In the fall, Mary Anne plans to return for her second year
of college at Blue Mountain, where she is majoring in
physical education and hopes to eventually teach at the high
school or junior high level. Last year, the 1976 Riverside High
graduate commuted to the Pendleton campus from her
Irrigon home.
She has spent all of her 19 years on her parents' 160-acre
cattle-breeding ranch and says she has no real desire to leave
the Irrigon area.
"Our family has traveled around the country on vacations,
but this is where I was raised and I'll probably stay here,"
she said.
"I've noticed a big change in the area in the last few
years," Mary Anne said. "It keeps getting bigger, but it's
still home."
A visit to the ranch shows there are plenty of reasons to
hold her attraction. The shaded house is located less than a
mile from the Columbia River, with open spaces in every
direction. Roaming somewhere on the ranch is Mary Anne's
registered quarter horse, Danzy Bay.
That's the horse she rides in the parades because "he's
used to it," but she's also grooming a two-year-old colt, also a
quarter horse, which Mary Anne hopes to develop into
another rodeo horse.

Queen Mary Anne's busy schedule seldom allows her time to
pursue a favorite hobby roping.
Mary Anne keeps plenty of irons in the fire to assure
there's never a dull moment. At Riverside, she was active in
sports, the National Honor Society and the cheerleading
squad. She has been a member of the Umatilla Sage Riders
for several years and participated in 4-H horsemanship for 10
years. She still tries to find time for her favorite hobbies
which include tennis, swimming, dancing and roping. She
even has her own roping arena set up near the barn, but
admits that her roping practices have been a bit neglected as
of late. With the schedule she maintains, that's easily
understood.

Burns said.
Burns said the proposed
zone change is consistent with
the state-wide efforts of LCDC
to preserve agricultural
areas.
The current development
problems were precipitated
by a 1974 zoning change which
placed virtually all of the
Irrigon surrounding area in
the one-acre designation.
Burns said the change was in
conflict with the county's 1971
Comprehensive Plan but he
noted at that time the docu
ment was regarded as little
more than a "housekeeping
measure."
A more substantial version
of the Comprehensive Plan is
currently in the works and
Burns said a tentative com
pletion date is set for July,
1979, depending on the avail
ability of state funding.
