»—THE MIL I. CITY ENTERPRISE Lazy Maple Rodeo Has Wild Horses Wild horses from the Warm Springs Indian reservation in Eastern Oregon proved too much for the cowboys at Sunday's rodeo show at the Lazy Maple ranch three miles west of Mill City. Dick Shultz did manage a spec tacular ride on the •'strawberry roan.” and the mysterious “mush-a- roon" kid from Salem did fairly well, but the power horses from the rug ged Eastern Oregon range had those who dared buffaloed and those who dared were few and far between. Jim King, organizer of the show, managed to ride the "Atomic Bomb,” a ten-year-old bucking horse never tamed for something like seven sec onds in which the horse revolved like a top in midair. "First horse that tore me off in a long time,” Jim commented. But the youngsters did well enough to delight the good-sized crowd. Larry Nydigger took the boys, saddle races, and a seven-year-old girl from Aums ville, Betty Woods, trimmed the other tots at calf riding. In all there were four hours of wild western fun for the folks. Jim King wishes to thank the Mill City fire department and the ambulance ser vice for being present in event of emergency.
