While Howard say that he has
traded his ropes in for golf clubs,
good horses and rodeos have been
a part of Howard's life for many
years. His many years of service

hazing stock, taking tickets and
serving on the Rodeo Committt.c.
Howard was born at the
Willow Creek home of hi
parents, Glenn and Madge
Bryant. He and his brother, Earl,
attended Heppner schools. While
Howard played on the school's
championship quality football
team, the team was never able to
panicipare in the playo(fs because
the opposing team became ill.
They then took on tougher op-
ponents from the CCC encamp-
Howard and his wife Beth.

tinue to live al their Fairview
Way residence surrounded by life

The Bryants arc members of
the Heppner Methodist Church,
the Masonic and f.astem Star
Lodges and the Shriners. In re-
cent years, they have become ac-
tive members of the Willow

changed a IOI, especially in the
quality of horses and equipment.
It's now a profession for top
atbldes. he ays, i~ead of just
a hobby. As a rodeo suppora.
