Casey Tibbs Might
Ride at Stuart
STUART — “Buzzy”’ Hoover
who was in Stuart this week mak
ing final arrangements to bring
his rodeo, the ox yoke chamoion
ship rodeo, to Stuart for the eighth
annual American Legion rodeo
assured members of the rodeo
committee that he will bring some
of the top riders of the circuit for
the rodeo-goers entertainment.
Several of the top-ranking
cowboys last year in the final
RCA standings competed almost
exclusively in his rodeos. Among
the better known were Casey
Tibbs, Bill Lawrence, Jim Shoul
ders, and others.
Casey Tibbs has not made a
definite promise, he plans to ride
in Stuart this year.
The rodeo, one of the five larg
est in Nebraska, is scheduled for
June 25 and 26, instead of the
Fourth of July, as in past years.
It is felt that by having the rodeo
on a date other than a regular
celebrated day, more people will
be able to attend.
There will be one show Satur
day evening and two on Sunday,
one in the afternoon and one in
the evening.
Mrs. William Halva and son,
Billy, and daughter, Jean, of
Lynch were shopping in O’Neill
