of their performance when entering
Rodeo To Bring
the rodeo arena.
The first time this reporter saw
Back Pioneer Spirit George
Menkinmeyer of Burns ride
(Continued from Fife 1)
seeing that his stock is in the best
possible condition to give the audi
ence a real performance of Ks fight
ing ability when the animal Is re
leased from the chutes. The rodeo
cowboy is not presented with any
sofa-cushion rides when he comes
out aboard one of Tucker's show
animals.
Due to the softball enthusiasts,
the fence separating the rodeo arena
and racetrack has been removed.
This will allow a much better view
for the spectators in the grandstand,
as it brings the show much closer
to them. New lights have also bees'
added so that the most detailed
action of the contestants can be
clearly observed. Added work on
the chutes will facilitate more effici
ent handling of stock so that the
spectators should be given a much
faster and more interesting show.
In addition to at least 30 riding
club members working each evening,
many of ti.e public spirited and
oivic-minded business men and
members of the chamber of com-
merc are taking part in various
responsibilities and activities. Most
of these citizens give of their time
liberally, as well as contributing
money (for the cowboy purses) from
their business in order to make this
community event a success.
These citizens of Nyssa are to be
congratulated upon assuming the
financial burden of the purses, as
well as helping to make it possible
for free programs to be distributed
at the rodeo. The reason the rodeo
committee is able to distribute these
programs ‘free’,—is because of the
advertising purchased by the local
business men. A real effort is being
made this year to add pictures and
items to make the programs more
interesting as souvenirs of the events
the spectators have enjoyed at the
rodeo.
Announcer Pete Logan, considered
one of the best in the country, will
announc? for all of the three night's
activities. Pete knows the men rid
ing, and has announced in Hous
ton, Madison Square Garden and in
the northwest states.
Among the well-known cowboys
returni-g for this year’s rodeo, are
Jack Peroyfield of Arizona, calf
roper and pickup man; Walt Sullins
of California, who has won the Nyssa
bareback riding event every year;
Brahma bull-rider Vaden Ashby of
Canada; Cecil Bedford of Touchet,
Washington; George Menkinmeyer
of Bums, who won the saddle-bronc
money two years ago; and Ray Beam
of Sharon Springs, Kansas. Ross
Dollarhide, one of the new outstand
ing rodeo performers of the past
three years, is expected to return.
It is also hoped that Buck Davis,
who won top honors at Madison
Square Garden, as well as other
riders of the older school, will again
be present to show the excellence
was at a country rodeo at a cow
ranch m the hills near Drewsy.
Oregon. The contestants paid no
fee and received no award for their
efforts However, Menkinmeyer was
one of the outstanding performers
of the show One of George's com
panions had the misfortune of draw
ing a horse called Screwdriver. The
man was thrown and received a
badly fractured ankle, necessitating
his removal Do the hospital at Burns.
The rodeo continued and at the
conclusion, George made a very
beautiful ride on Screwdriver. The
crowd collected a purse for him.
Oeorge doubled the purse from his
own pocket and gave It to the boy
who was hurt. We all like to see a
fellow like Oeorge Menkinmeyer
make a successful ride!
Por each evening's performance,
the Nyssa 1951 Rodeo Queen Colleen
Bybee and her three attending prin
cesses, Virginia Com. Estelle Good-
son, and Nannette Bybee. will be
present.
Besides the five major sections of
each evening's performance, which
includes the bronc riding, bareback
riding, bull dogging, calf roping, and
Brahma bull riding, there are added
attractions. The clown will be Sher
man Crane of Santa Anita, Cali
fornia, a Brahma bull-fighter, who
brings with him his trained mule
and mischievous monkey. Although
Crane Is new to the Nyssa arena,
it is believed that his performance
will come up to the high standard of
daring and comedy which the audi
ence expects. The Harmon Twins
of Tacoma, Washington will appear
nightly, doing their acrobatic and
bouncing act. Calf roping and calf
riding for the children will be an
other added attraction.
