Interested in the fighting birds since 1917, he displays one, of the round head and white hackle cross breed. Rancher Raises Cocks For Hobby, Fun, Profit Malin High School Lists Achievements By HKLEN PARKS FORT ROCK "There are two things I'd get up way early to goj e a horse race and a rooster; fight," says Lawrence Tex Rice of Fort Rock. Raising game-l cocks is his hobby, lor both fun and profit. His Interest in ths fighting cocks dates back to 1917 when he was stationed with the 11th Cav alry at Camp Stewart near El Paso. He and a buddy, who con ditioned the officers' birds, at tended the fights at nearby Juar ez, Alex. The cocks were sched uled on alternate Sundays with the bull fights, he recalls. A long-time buckaroo for the former ZX Cattle Company, Tex got further cowpoke experience1 in New Mexico and Arizona. While on the job at the Alvord Ranch In Harney County he broke his leg. During the long recuper ation he sent to Tide, Tex., for seven stags. These, Tex sayi.l are young roosters that haven't yet molted. He got mostly Col. John Madigan claret and white hackle Btags for $12 each. The lour Madignn claret hens were! $10 each. Then he was In busi ness. When he and Mrs. Rice moved to Fort Rock last fall, along rame the chicken families. Be tween school bus trips he built individual roosting quarters for the cocks, an oil drum atop a wooden frame, and he farmed out Die hens. After selling 30, the brood Is down to 10 of each sex. Twenty five of the cocks went by air ex press to Honolulu. Here's where the profit comes in. Each 2-year-old cock will bring from $20 to $40, Tex says. Hawaii and Arizona are two ol the five states in which game lighting Is legal. The reason for separate hous ing Is their instinct to do battle. Daytime finds them anchored to their tie-out stake, the cord at tached to one leg. Their feed Is half oats mixed with com, maize and wheat. A special pet Is "Old Wagner" of the Arkansas traveler strain. Tins old seven-time winner, blind in one eye, came from a friend in Wagner, 111. Cock fighting dates back to our country's beginning, says Tex. George Washington's cock houses are preserved in the Mt. Vernon museum. He then got out an ar ticle on Grit and Steel, a monthly magazine published for the past 64 years especially for gamecock breeders. "Many of the fathers of our coun try were game fanciers, even to the extent that the gamecock was almost the national emblem of our country, losing out to the American eagle. The eagle won over the gamecock by an even smaller margin than JFK won over Nixon," says the writer Tex, who enjoys a good fight, says, "Gamecocks come out of their shells looking for a fight and demand no training. And they fight to the end, showing their inborn courage." They are matched according to weight, be ginning at light, 4.8 pounds, to heavy at 6.4 pounds. But Tex doesn't spend all his jllme caring for 10 game chickens During tho week he headquar ters at Viewpoint Ranch, the end of the schoolbus line, 40 miles from Fort Rock School. Here ho cooks supper and breakfast fori the ranch hands at the big Irri gated farming operation. While he's in Fort Rock during the day, he gels in the wood fori Mrs. Rice, who keeps busy toach-i ing 20 youngsters in grades one through four, and many ranchers have called on Tex to help with the feeding when they needed a helping hand. Just now he's leading the "Min ute Men," Fort Rock gun safety 4H club, and he finds that cor ralling 34 lively bus passengers can keep an old cowboy on his toes. Both children and parents are sorry that the Rices have an swered the call to a warmer clime. Mrs. Rice will teach in the Las Vegas school system next year, and Tex . . . well, he'll keep busy.

HOLD BRIEF SESSION WASHINGTON IUPH The Senate dashed through a six second session Friday but failed to set a new record for brevity. The session was officially record. ed for Ihe Congressional Record at six seconds, and an unofficial stopwatch clocked it at nine. In neither case was it a Senate record. U.S. Urges Communists To Confer Realistically GENEVA U Pl'-The United States appealed to Communist dis- irmament negotiators Fridav to talk sense instead of demanding one-sided concessions from the We-l. U.S. negotiator Charles C. Slelle lold the 17-nation darmament conlerence Soviet demands thai the United States remove nuclear arms from the foreign bases an de- niicleariie the Mediterranean Sea are unlair and illogical. He said Ihe Russians "seek in luiilaleral fashion to harass and obstruct WcMcrn defensive moves taken to keep NATO modern and up to date in the face of Ihe mammoth Soviet military elfort. "We can jut imagine Ihe re action of the Soviet Union if we were to propose . . . a nuclear free zone comprising the full territory of alt slates bordering on Ihe Caspian Sea." Slelle said. "Each side can think up such unbalanced schemes, but we in the West are sensible and respon sible enough not to burden our conference and Ihe world public with such nonsense. "Let us get on with realistic measures that have some chance of general acceptance." Speaking before Slelle, Soviet negotiator Semyon K. Tsarapkin renewed Soviet proposals for a non aggression pact between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. Tlie West repeatedly has rejected this idea as being divorced from dis armament goals. Negotiators here welcomed tlie new Western attempt to break the nuclear test ban deadlock but were not optimistic ahout its chances of success with live Soviets. NNeed Money For Spring?
