horse roping and the “big loop" Jordan Valley. He was honored
by having an artist's painting of him in a recent publication
of the Western Horseman of Rod participating in the
competition at Jordan Valley. Following his graduation he
worked in agriculture for a year. He then went to work for
R.C. Bean Saddlery in Star where he was currently employed. He
