Bronze Memorial for Cowboy Capital Next Wednesday, August 13th, a bronze sculpture by former bareback and bull rider, Jeff Wolf, will be unveiled at the Gooding County Fairgrounds in honor of Leo & May Rice and their love of cowboys and automobiles. Most people associate the Leo Rice Motor Co. with the early days of Gooding, but the story really began a bit farther north. If you drive through Hill City, Idaho (13 miles west of Fairfield), it’s hard to imagine that ninety years ago, Hill City was a town of nearly 300 people and home to several garages (service stations), one of which belonged to Leo Rice.
Leo soon moved his garage to Fairfield, then started selling automobiles in the 1920’s. In 1932, Leo and his wife, moved to Gooding where they established the Leo Rice Motor Co. During all of this, they ran a 7000 acre cattle ranch with winter quarters in Tuttle and summer grazing on the Camas prairie. Mr. Rice knew as much about horses and cows as he did trucks and cars, and knew how to dress the part bolo ties, a five gallon hat, woolen shirts, and rugged sweaters. In 1955, Leo Rice was named ”Idaho’s Grassman of the Year.”
While serving as the Mayor of Gooding (1959 to 1966 and 1974 to 1975) Mr. Rice helped bring several new businesses to the Gooding area, including the bowling alley and a meat packing plant (now the site of Glanbia Cheese). Leo’s love of cowboys and Gooding County Rodeo prompted his family to donate the bronze sculpture titled “Rodeo” to the fairgrounds. After the Main Street Parade (7:00 p.m.) you are invited to the dedication ceremony which will take place at 8:30 p.m. near the front gate of the rodeo arena.
Gooding County Fair & Rodeo This Friday, August 8th, the 4H Oral Presentation Contest will be held at the Gooding Extension office at 1 p.m. At 5 p.m. the 4H Dog Show will take place. The 4H Horse Show will start at 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 9th, at the fairgrounds. continued on page 3.....

Fosbury A Winner at Camas Parade
Press Release As a candidate for the Idaho House of Representatives seat 26A, Dick Fosbury always puts his best foot forward in the race to win on Election Day. On Saturday, August 2, his philosophy of hard work paid off in the form of a small victory in Fairfield, where he won a blue ribbon for his campaign float in the parade. In keeping with this year’s parade theme, “Get Your Elvis On,” Fosbury’s float featured two Olympic Elvis track star characters, complete with Elvis wigs and glasses. The characters sported the dual theme because Fosbury is an Olympian who re-invented the high jump with his backward leap, known as the Fosbury Flop, and won a gold medal for his 1968 high jump in the Mexico City Olympics. “I very much enjoyed the opportunity to join the parade, and the blue ribbon was a fun bonus before watching the 4-H auction,” says Fosbury. Dick has lived in Idaho since 1977, and has spent the last 35 years in the Wood River Valley, working as a civil engineer, with Galena Engineering, the firm he owned with his partners. During his engineering career, he worked on many private projects throughout southern Idaho, including Camas County. Education, jobs, and family income are the issues that motivated Fosbury to run for the state legislature. “A quality education is the path to better wages and a higher standard of living,” says Fosbury. Fosbury will work tirelessly to raise Idaho family incomes and improve educational opportunities for students if he is elected.

Some say that there are silver linings behind every cloud. I guess that may be true if you are following dreams or opportunities. Every opportunity usually comes dressed in work clothes. When I think of silver linings and clouds, I think of the sky and its endless limitations. Then I am reminded of the situations leading up to my first airplane ride. My friend Tom and I had barely received out driver’s licenses when some word of mouth reached us about cleaning some airplanes for Jay Morris at the Emmett Airport. We thought we would apply for the job. Needless to say, we were hired on. Our duties consisted of pulling the planes into the hanger, then washing and detailing them with some cleaning compound for the high-gloss look. The little four-seat Cessna planes were pretty easy to clean. Jay Morris told us he was pondering about a cleaning service for the whole Northwest and we would be flying to different locations. There might even be some flying lessons and a pilot’s license for a couple of the right guys. Two young boys talked and began to think about that dream. After cleaning several small planes, the next in line was a brown plane that was an eight to ten passenger plane. Jay told us that the plane was built in 1948 and we had to use care getting it into the hanger. We followed the instructions very well, but when we started to clean, the cleaner pealed the brown paint off leaving a silver or aluminum coat underneath. We both panicked and I went to Jay to tell him we needed something else to clean with because it was stripping the paint off the plane. Jay laughed and told us that the plane had been stored on the Payette Lake and was tarnished. Silver was the actual color. We worked hard for two days from early morning until late at night. That job paid $45.00. When we were done you could hardly look at the plane because it reflected like a mirror. Mr. Morris took us for a plane ride in another plane. To look down on the silver plane from above was a feat of accomplishment. Even the airplane ride was a great thrill. Upon arriving on the ground, Jay Morris wanted us to join his cleaning service. I did the math. Two boys and two days plus to purchase our fuel to drive across the valley for a $45.00 split didn’t seem to be as good of a deal as stacking hay for $400 /hour. This is my “Cup of Tee” saying that silver linings may be behind each cloud but being in the clouds doesn’t always line your pockets with silver.
