Eight pretty, young rodeo
enthusiasts from all parts of
Washington will be on hand
here Friday night when
competition gets underway in
the 1974 Miss Rodeo Wash-
ington contest.
The girls will be facing
about 44 busy and exciting
hours with climax coming 4
p.m. on Sunday when one of
them is named Miss Rodeo
Washington of 1975.
"This is one of the best
entries we have had in the
contest in years," Mrs. Max
McCombs, contest co-chair-
man, reported this week. "We
are looking for some close
competition with a fine
representative for the state
next year."
The contest, which is being
presented as part of the
Othello Rodeo for the llth
straight year, has undergone
some basic changes this year,
but the format will be the
same.
Judging Change
One major change will be
the judging procedure. In past
years three judges have been
selected for each of the three
categories - personality, ap-
pearance and horsmanship -
and rated the girls only in
those sections. This year all
nine of the judges will view the
girls in all pageant events and
rate them on their specialities.
"We think this is fairer to
both the girls and the judges ,"
Mrs. McCombs stated.
The pageant activities will
start Friday night with the
annual kick-off banquet set for
7:30 p.m. at Freddie's Res-
taurant. The dinner is open to
the public with advanced-sale
ticket purchase urged to
assure a seat.
The tickets sell for $4.50 per
plate and are available at
Community Savings and Loan.
Saturday morning the con-
testants wilt participate in the
fair-rodeo parade and then
enter the horsemanship com-
petition.
Horsemanship
Featuring a new addition of
~goat-tying this year, the
horsemanship event will get
underway at 1 p.m. at the
rodeo grounds. Admission will
be $1 per person. Officials
report that the goat-tying is
part of the national competi-
tion, and is a cross between
barrel racing and calf roping.
The contestants will each
give an exhibition in goat-
tying during the Saturday
performance of the rodeo, and
then await the Sunday show
when 1974 titlelist Karel Blair
of Elk will crown her
successor.
