45 Years Ago—June 7, 1917
Last Saturday morning about
10:30 o’clock, while Ira Bohner
and Jess Earp were working in
the pasture of the latter, the
horse Ira was riding in some
way became unmanageable and
ran over Jess, striking him in
the back and cutting a gash
over his right eye.
D. P. Carr of Fairview was in
town Saturday.
The splendid home of I. A.
McKibben was destroyed by fire

Paul A. Turner of Fort Worth
Pvt. Claude Barker
Completes Advanced
Individual Training
Army Pvt. Claude Barker,
son of Mrs. Ethel Barker, Pa-
ducah, recently completed ad-
vanced individual training with
other personnel from the 1st
Armored Division’s 46th Infantry
at Fort Hood, Tex. The 1st is
one of two active Army divisions
organized earlier this year un-
der the new ROAD (Reorganiza-
tion of Army Divisions) concept.
Barker received instruction in
handling and firing of the M-l
rifle, .45 caliber submachine
gun, .30 and .50 caliber machine-
guns, 3.5-inch rocket launcher,
4.2-inch mortar, 106-millimeter
recoilless rifle and the Army’s
new M-14 rifle and M-60 ma-
chinegun. He was trained in
the use of hand and rifle gren-
ades and in squad tactics used
by a machanized infantry bat-
talion. The training stressed
infantry-armor coordination and
skills necessary for battlefield
survival.
Barker, a heavy - weapons
crewman in Company B of the
infantry, entered the Army last
December and completed basic
training at Fort Carson, Colo.
The 22-year-old soldier at-
tended Paducah High School.
Before entering the Army, he
was employed by Havana Trail-
ers.

The president of the Texas
and Southwestern Cattle Raisers
Association today called the
feed grain section of the ad-
ministration’s farm bill a back-
door approach to production
controls and price regulation in
the cattle industry and urged
livestock producers to inform
congressmen of their views im-
mediately.
Leo Welder of Victoria made
this statement shortly after de-
livering a welcome address to
the South Central Hereford Prog-
ress Clinic, Fort Worth, in the
Will Rogers Memorial Coliseum.
Welder said the TSCRA ex-
ecutive and cattle feeder com-
mittee meeting in joint session
at San Antonio Tuesday, unani-
mously passed a motion calling
on beef producers to actively
oppose the Feed Grain Section
which is Title 4 of House resolu-
tion 11222.
Welder said this legislation
would provide for mandatory
production controls for all feed
grain crops, and said producers
who utilize a portion or all of
their feed grain and sorghum
production of their own farms
and ranches would not be al-
lowed to make necessary chang-
es in planted acreage to meet
changes in their livestock pro-
grams.
He pointed out that passage
of this legislation would have(64.page catalogue. It sells regu-
a direct effect on the beef con- __
sumer. “This legislation would

People catch fish. But fisher-
sometimes catch people.
If you’ve ever been “hooked”
by a fisherman, you know what
I mean.
Homer Circle, PR man for
James Heddon’s Sons of Dowa-
giac, Michigan—makers of the
famous Heddon Fishing Tackle
— sends us some interesting
facts on this subject.
“Every year,” says Homer,
“doctors are called upon to ex-
tract berbed hooks from various
parts of people’s anatomies. It
may be an eye, or an ear, the
face or a neck, hands, arms,
legs, back—or rump.”
“Most of these painful injur-
ies could have been avoided if a
few simple safety rules had
been followed,” said Homer.
“Experts have studied this
needless injury problem for
years and offer numerous sug-
gestions to help fishermen de-
rive pleasure instead of pain
from America’s greatest partici-
pant sport.”
Homer has included these
suggestions in Heddon’s 1962
Fishing Tackle Catalogue. I’ll
pass them on to you later, after
I tell you how you may obtain
free of charge, Heddon’s new
mean higher feeding costs, and
this would necessarily result in
higher costs of beef to the
housewife,” he emphasized.
He said the feed grain sec-
tion of the bill also would pro-
vide the Secretary of Agricul-
ture with the authority to per-
mit the grazing of subsidized
acres diverted from other crops.
Welder said the cattle indus-
try has long opposed controls
and price fixing, and that the
TSCRA is vigorously opposed to
provisions in the feed grain sec-
tion of the new farm bill. He
emphasized that many of the
provisions are quite similar to
those presented in the omnibus
farm bill last year. The TSCRA
passed a resolution calling for
the defeat of this bill during
their quarterly meeting at San
Angelo last September.
17th Annual Santa Rosa Roundup
Scheduled In Vernon June 20-23
Plans for the 17th annual ro-«ed on the Red Skelton TV show,
deo and quarter horse show to
be held at Vernon in E. Paul
Waggoner’s showplace arena for
four nights June 20-23 were an-
nounced today by Wylie Boyle,
Carl Darr, B. F. Hobson, and Bill
Heatly, local members of the
Board of Directors of the Santa
Rosa Roundup.
Directors approved plans for
the big rodeo — recognized as
one of the greatest events of its
type staged anywhere — at the
annual director’s meeting Mon-
day in Vernon, where they were
guests of Mr. Waggoner at a
chuck wagon feed.
A brilliant assortment of
specialty acts plus competition
by the top professional rodeo
performers in the nation are ex-
pected to make this show equal
or surpass the greatest ever pre-
sented in the Santa Rosa
Roundup arena.
The world champion cowboys
and their top challengers, who
regularly converge on Vernon
for the big event, will be com-
peting for $8,000 plus entry fees
in prize money.
The traditional rugged action
of bareback bronc riding, calf
roping, saddle bronc riding,
steer wrestling, brahma bull
riding and a world champion
cutting horse contest will be
supplemented by the glamour of
a new stage and singing star —
Linda Loftis, Miss Texas of
1962; who’ll be coming directly
from Las Vegas, Nevada, ap-
pearances to perform at the
rodeo. Miss Loftis, third place
winner of the Miss America con-
test and the “most photogenic”
in the competition, has appear-
Prevent Depredation In Camp
Wild animals are a constant
source of depredation in camp.
They gnaw equipment be-
cause of the sweat salt they
find on such items as axe hand-
les, etc. They break open bags
and damage cans in search of
food.
Usually this occurs during
the night, or when the camp is
deserted.
You can prevent this aggra-
vation by spraying your equip-
ment and stores with nicotine
sulphate. It is a chemical in-
offensive to man, but repugnant
to animals. Pests will give
camps, so sprayed, a wide
berth.
in Fort Worth opera, and starred
in Fort Worth Casa Manana
productions.
The dessert for the solid ro-
deo menu, topped by the color-
ful commentary of Cy Taillon,
recognized as rodeo’s greatest
announcer, will include the
classic precision drills by the
famed Santa Rosa Palomino
Club of Vernon, plus these fea-
ture attractions:
Ruby Nance and his cowboy
band; Ken Boen, Clown Prince
of Rodeo, featured in the West-
ern Horseman, and booked for
1961 in the world’s largest stage
production, the Canadian Na-
tional Exhibition; D. J. Gaudin,
the Kajun Kid, selected by the
nation’s top bullriders for the
National Finals Rodeo; Goldie
Carlton, a repeat performer at
the Sanda Rosa Roundup, whose
barrel and bullfighting acts
were one of the features of the
Fort Worth Fat Stock Show and
rodeo; Frank Gilbert and his
White Sock Jumpers; attractive
women trick riders Karen Wom-
ack, Janett Plunkett and Patty
Davis, a second-generation per-
former whose mother previously
appeared in Vernon.
The Beutler Brothers, Lynn
and Jake, of Elk City, Okla.,
foremost in the nation in their
field, will again be producing
the rodeo.
The Horse Show Division will
be greatly expanded this year.
Western Pleasure and Pole
Bending Divisions have been
added to the cutting, reining
and barrel race divisions of
previous years. The horse show
will open at 9 a.m. Wednesday
through Friday and at 8 a,m.
on Saturday, when the Quarter
Horse halter classes will be pre-
sented. The Quarter Horse cut-
ting championship will be un-
reeled Saturday night.
Morning and afternoon
Quarter Horse Show events are
open to the public free of charge
and horse lovers may also visit
the Santa Rosa Stables on the
grounds and see Poca Bueno
and others of Mr. Waggoner’s
famous show string of champion
Quarter Horses.
John Biggs of Vernon is gen-
eral manager of the Roundup.

Guess he’s trying to find out
if we have any readers!
Anyway, it’s a beautiful mul-
ti-colored printing job with as
many tips on fishing as there
are items listed in the cata-
logue.
Now—back to the safety tips
we promised. Here’s how to keep
from latching onto a fishing
buddy or getting yourself seri-
ously involved in a hook:
(1) Learn the simple over-
head cast — never toss a plug
side-arm with your fishing com-
panion nearby. And always
know where your partner is!
(2) If your lure hangs on a
surface snag don’t try to jerk it
loose with your rod. That bent
rod can propel the lure so sud-
denly and so fast you won’t
have time to duck. Instead try
to shake it loose gently or row
in and remove it by hand.
(3) While playing a fish al-
ways keep the bend of your rod
away from your head and your
companion. Again, a suddenly
released lure with an assist
from a bend rod could propel
its hooks infn the skin you or
your partner love so much!
(4) It’s safer to land a fish
with net or gaff. Don’t grab a
fish with your hands unless you j
are experienced in the right <
techniques. Always play the fish
until he turns belly up ... if
large, beach it. And, never reach
into the mouth of a toothed
fish. A pair of long-nosed pliers
can save you lots of trouble.
(5) Remember . . . the only
lure that should be out of your
closed tackle box is the one at
the end of your rod. Too often
loose lures in the boat end up
in the fisherman’s seat!
Finally — remember that a
good fishing partner is an in-
valuable asset. Study him, watch
him carefully and if he proves
cautious, courteous and thought-
ful of you he is a rare com-
panion.
Let him know your appreci-
ation by trying to outdo his ad-
mirable characteristics.
