RODEO MAKES MIT
AT VALLEY FAIR
Alaskan rodeo fans welcomed
the First Annual Amateur Rodeo
Championships by turning out
for eaeh of the six rodeos per
formed at the 17th annual Ma
tanuska Valley Fair. Tim Econ
omu, president of the Cowboy
Rodeo Association expressed his
thanks to the people of the Pal
mer area for their open-arms re
ception and stated he is looking
forward to a bigger and better
rodeo next year.
Winners in the first go-round

ing; Joe Vincent, first; Glen Bou
ton, second. Second go-round:
Bareback riding: Bob Zigler, first,
Bob Hazelwood, second. Third go
round: Joe Vincent, first; Joe
Clausen, second. FINALS: Bob
Zigler, first; Dean Ward, second,
and Sonny Elders, third.
Saddle-bronc riding: First go

second. Third go-round, Jim
Meeks, first, Bob Zigler, second.
FINALS: Jim Meeks, first, Char
les Lynch, second, and Bob Zig
ler. third.
Wild Horse Race: Winning
team: Glen Bouton, Russ Ver
non, and Joe Vincent.
Cash prizes were awarded to
the above winners at the Cow
boys’ dance held Labor Day
evening in the school gymnasium.
At the dance Harold Castle, a
Florida man, was awarded the
registered Shetland pony.
For a number of valley resi
dents the rodeo brought back
fond memories of rodeos in the
States—for others thrills of the
rodeo were seen for the first
time. In spite of the terrific
bucking done by many of the
broncs and the many serious-ap
pearing spills made by the cow
boys, no serious injuries were
received. A sprained ankle, and a
broken collar bone led the cas
ualty list. Bob Hazelwood, on6
of the riders who ended up in
the top money, not only went
through the arena fence on his'
charging and bucking bronc, but
landed beneath the horse and es
caped with no more than a short
ness of breath. Three events lat
er he was back in there spurring
his mount to add more points
to his score.
Humor was salted into the ro
deo by Dutch Bandy, rodeo
clown, who kept the youngsters
and oldsters entertained with his
antics.
Prior to the opening of the
rodeo members of the Cowboy
Association rebuilt the catch
pens and shoots and completely
built the arena. Economu stated
it is their hope to fnake the ro
deo championship an annual
event in Palmer.
