GAMECOCK FANCIER "gamecock comei out of the
shall looking for a fight," says Tex Rice of Fort Rock who
.raises cocks as a hobby. Interested in the fighting birds
since 1917, he displays one, of the round head and white
hackle cross breed.

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.
