Volume 32 July, 1988 No. 7

FROM YOUR PRESIDENT.. . DAVE LOUCKS Pleasanton, California, site of the 1988 World Tournament, will soon be teaming with

horseshoe pitchers from all around the country. With just another day or two of registrations to count, it looks like a total of about 900 pitchers will be coming for the event. This would make Pleasanton the 4th highest W.T. in overall attendance and the largest ever to be held on either coast. It's going to be a big family get together with a lot of good old socializing as some 170 recreation vehicles will all be parked on site at the Alameda County Fairgrounds.

The Banquet and Convention will both be on the Fairgrounds which should make it very convenient for those parked there to attend. This year will find two very popular and outstand-ing individuals inducted into the NHPA Hall of Fame. Walter Ray Williams Jr., will be honored for his achievements as a player while Earl Winston will be equally honored for his contribu-tions as a player/organizer. Congratulations to both.

The Convention will get underway on the morning of August 8th. State Presidents are reminded that you are to submit a written letter listing your delegates and naming the spokesperson for your charter. This spokesperson is supposed to be a News Digest subscrib-er and is the person that will be empowered to vote all the delegates entitled by your charter membership. Remember, if your delegates and spokesperson are not identified by advance letter signed by the Charter President, they can be denied seating if they just show up at the Convention. Don't let that happen. We want all states to be represented and an advance list speeds things up at the door when you are asked for credentials.

The convention this year will most likely be another long one. There are a lot of proposals up for discussion and vote as well as reports, elections and a review of NHPA liability insurance. The Digest in the May issue, listed the 37 proposed changes to the NHPA Constitution and By-Laws. Each charter should have a meeting to discuss these proposals and see to it that their delegation comes to the convention prepared. To help you in this regard, the National Council recommends a YES vote on proposals 1-5, 7-21, 23-25, 27-33 and 35-37. We recommend a NO vote on proposals 6 and 26. The NHPA council is split on proposals 22 and 34.

Pitchers who plan to attend the Pleasanton World Tournament are reminded that their pitching shoes are subject to check for weight & measurement conformance. The opening cannot exceed 3% inches nor can the shoe exceed 7V\ inches in width or weigh more than 2 pound 10 ounces. The Head Judge this year is Roy Heyden who, with his crew will be doing their utmost to enforce the rules and keep the game equal for all who participate. You can help them and yourself by being prepared. Have your name and state on your shirt which must have sleeves. DO NOT STEP ON or OVER THE FOUL LINE. When you are waiting for your opponent to pitch, be sure you are standing at the back V* of the opposite platform with at least one foot in contact with teh pad. The judges will be looking for violations of the rules and

MESSAGE—(Continued) if you have picked up some poor habits, you may be called. Your first offense will most likely result in a warning. Help yourself and fellow pitchers by being aware of and obeying the rules of play.

If you will be in Pleasanton, have judging experience and would like to work as a W.T. judge, please contact us. The first few days are critical. We need help lined up before the tournament start.

DAVE'S COURT REPORT Over Memorial Weekend, Donnie Roberts and I were in Ponca City for the Original Region-

al. Under the guidance of Homer Cain and some dedicated supporters, this first Regional Tournament drew some 120 entrants from 13 different states. Despite a good wind that stuck around for all three pitching days, the tournament was by any measure a success. Over $5,000 in prize money plus unique trophies and some special jackets were distributed to the top finishers. The business community was very supportive and the city officials came out for a special welcome ceremony. We had the opportunity to do several live radio interviews, got good press in 3 nice newspaper stories and had a special guest presentation with the directors of the Chamber of Commerce and the Tourism Authority. There are too many involved folks to name all here but special thanks to Homer & Ginger Cain, their daughters and Louise & Worth Abercrombie. I know I speak for the entire NHPA when I say "thanks for getting Regionals started."

COVER PHOTO . . . Homer Cain of Marland, Okla., is shown beside the big sign depicting the site of the Original Regional Horseshoe Tournament at the Dan Moran Park courts in Pocca City, Oklahoma. The tournament was held at that site on May 27-29. Results of that tournament were not available at press time.

3 n jWemortam Death has taken two former members of Shasta Horseshoe Club of Redding, CA, in recent

months. Arnold Davis of Happy Camp joined the Shasta Club soon after it was organized in 1974. Though he lived 150 miles from Redding, he was active in the club until 1984, when cancer caused the loss of one eye. He loved the game, and even more the friends he made and the fellowship of tournaments. He died November 16, 1987, at the age of 61. He is survived by his wife Hazel, three children, and nine grandchildren.

Ben Chiaputti joined the club in 1980. He moved to Syracuse, NY, in 1981 but was back in Redding and active in the club again in 1986 and until June 1987, when cancer caused him to give up pitching. He died March 30, 1988, at age 68. He is survived by his mother and five children.

Wayne Chambers was an active member of horseshoe clubs in California for about eight years; he had belonged to the Santa Barbara Club, and later on to the Golden Gate Club, prior to his moving to Rolla, MO, in 1980. He had to give up pitching after heart bypass surgery in 1984, but his enthusiasm and interest in horseshoes never diminished. Lung cancer was diagnosed in October of 1987, and he died December 20 in Rolla at the age of 71. He is survived by his wife Nancy, four children, and eight grandchildren.

Steve Rathburn, age 48, co-owner of the Rathburn Indoor Courts at Stroh, Indiana passed away March 1, 1988. Steve and his wife Rosemary had operated the Indoor Courts for 4 years. He will certainly be missed by the Indiana Pitchers and all who knew him.

This is a horseshoe pitching family and they plan to keep the courts going. In addition to wife Rosemary, daughter Cheryl who is married to Mike Blankenship, sons Mike and Greg, and another daughter Debbie. There are 5 grandchildren, already one of them, Brandon, is a horseshoe pitcher.

It is with deep sorrow that the Florida State Horseshoe Pitchers Association reports the passing of James C. Fourman, 77, of Sebring, Florida, and originally from Ohio.

Jim organized the Highland Horseshoe Club of Sebring in January of 1978. He was president and tournament director of the Highland Club until 1985 at which time illness forced him to resign. Jim was a promoter of Horseshoe pitching both in Florida and in his home state of Ohio.

The Florida State Horseshoe Pitchers Association extends its sympathy to his loving wife Lucy and her family.

WORDS OF WISDOM FROM "RED" HENTON Once again, I pick up my pen for just a few lines to keep in touch. I had the opportunity to visit with the folks in Florida for a few days this past April. Our

President, Mr. Loucks, his wife Cathy, Donnie Roberts and myself, held a bit of a clinic with Mr. Schummer regarding the P.A.R. Horseshoe System. Improvements have been made in the past year and I know all of you will be thrilled to see the beautiful equipment that is ours, all free for the asking. It must be made available to all people everywhere through our N.H.P.A.

Three or four years ago, I said it was a wonderful system—it is even better now, with the improvements.

While you are in California for the World Tournament, make certain you see the display and ask questions, or better still, come up with your own ideas on how you think the system can be improved. Don't forget, you could win a big cash prize!

I want to thank our Publicity Director, Mr. Bob Champion, for working so hard to get information out to all of us. I guess we all need to work harder on promoting our sport with the media, etc.

I am keeping a close watch on the newly organized IOWA PRO HORSESHOE TOUR. Right now, it has all the ear markings for being a great thing for States to consider. The format can be flexible enough to allow any number of participants. Their dress code is super and the players are very impressive when they arrive on the scene to do their thing. There will be a few bugs in any endeavor, but so far, it looks great!

In closing, we on the grievance committee, have had no complaints this past year, so that's great too.

Congratulations to the new Hall of Fame Inductees and everybody get out and win your division at the World Tournament in Pleasanton, California.

Your friend in horseshoe, Glen "Red" Henton

Joe Frank Harris GOVERNOR May 11, 1988

To: Members of the National Horseshoe Pitchers Association

As Governor, I am pleased to join the Georgia Horseshoe Pitchers Association in extending you an invitation to come to Georgia for your 1990 World Tournament.

Georgia is a great state with much to offer, and Stone Mountain Park is the perfect site for your tournament. Not only will you find excellent lodging and dining facilities, but also many opportunities for family recreation and relaxation. More important, you will find Georgians to be friendly and enthusiastic hosts who are eager to make your visit a pleasant one.

It is my hope that you will select Georgia and Stone Mountain Park as the site for your 1990 tournament.

With kindest regards, I remain

Sincerely,

Joe Frank Harris

NHPA REGIONAL DIRECTOR'S REPORT By MARY VAN SANT

Rodney Nahina, assistant regional director for the State of Hawaii, reports that they have held their first sanctioned horseshoe tournament in Hawaii. It was held at the Nanakuli Inn with twenty pitchers participating. They have three more sanctioned tournaments scheduled, April 29-30, June 11-12, and Sept. 3-5, the first Hawaii State Tournament Championships.

Don Weaver, assistant regional director for the State of Nevada, reports that it is full speed ahead for the sixth annual tournament at the Hacienda Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, to be held November 28 thru December 2, 1988. He has been testing some new products for the indoor courts and after pitching well over 5000 shoes on this surface, the Hacienda has agreed to purchase the best of the products tested for a "new pitching surface" for the tournament.

Earl Vansant, regional director for the State of Ohio, reports that due to the conflict in dates with the Ohio State Fair and the World Tournament, he will be the tournament director for the Ohio State Fair. The tournament will be held August 4th through August 21, 1988. They will pitch every day, having men and women pitch together in classes by ringer percentage, doubles and some youth tournaments. The tournament ends with a three-day governor's invitational tournament which concludes last year's top six 1987 Ohio State Fair finishers and the top six finishers from the 1987 World's Tournament, with the top four of the Ohio State Fair Open moving up to the Invitational. This has become one of the top tournaments of the year.

RECORDS . . . By GLEN PORTT

I've always said that records were made to be broken . . . because that's what it's all about. Whether one competes in horseshoes, bowling, golf, ping pong, or marbles at city, county, state or national level, the records are there . . . for someone to beat.

However, I've always felt that records should only be recognized as being broken when done so under comparable or near comparable conditions. As a boy, I grew up in the Babe Ruth era. His 60 home runs in 154 games is still a world record . . . as far as I'm concerned. Roger Maris came along and hit 61 in 162 games . . . a record for the most home runs in a single season. Did he break Ruth's record? Yes and no. About 2 years ago, a new record was set for the most points ever scored by a single player in a basketball game . . . but it was done with the benefit of 3 overtime periods. Was this a new records? Yes and no.

So, let's get around to our game of horseshoes. There are hundreds of records out there just waiting to be broken. But shouldn't they be considered as being broken only if the new records are made under comparable conditions? Our 1987 World Tournament has given us several examples. Let's take the case of Sandy McLachlin, the sensational and exciting 16 year old who turned the ladies horseshoe pitching world upside down by pitching a world tournament record of 88.1% ringers. Did this break Phyllis Negaard's mark of 84.1%? Yes and no.

Sandy pitched indoors under near perfect conditions. Negaard pitched in temperatures that broke the 100 degree mark every day. In my opinion, Sandy holds the World Tournament indoor record; Negaard still has the World Tournament outdoor record. If Sandy beats the


RECORDS—(Continued) 84.1% this year at Pleasanton, then she'll own both. However, beating 84.1% is not a cinch. Many top players have, in the past, pitched 5-10% lower than their previous W.T. score.

The same can be said of Diane Cantin's 47 straight ringers and Ray Hill's new Senior mark of 76.6%. These were both outstanding performances and are world records. But do they wipe out the outdoor records of Ruth Hangen's 44 straight and Stan Manker's 74.2%?

Every pitcher knows there is a great deal of difference pitching in the wind, rain, heat, or cold versus throwing in a controlled environment. As football moved inside domed stadiums, passing records went soaring. Many sports, especially track, have "Indoor Records" and "Outdoor Records." As our sport is moving slowly but surely toward all indoor world tourna-ments, shouldn't our records start reflecting this? I think so.

BONNIE SEIBOLD CANDIDATE FOR NHPA 4th V.P. I will be a candidate for re-election at the 1988 Convention at Pleasanton, California. Your

support will be greatly appreciated. Being an active pitcher, I feel this makes me aware of the needs and desires of other pitchers. I am currently serving as chairperson of the Constitution and By-Laws Committee and have served in that capacity for the past two years. I was also the chairperson for the Dress Code Committee. I have enjoyed working the past 10 years as your NHPA 4th V. Pres. My past years of experience would be very beneficial if I were re-elected. In the years past I have voted for the best interests of the NHPA and would continue to do so if re-elected.

WORLD TOURNAMENT PRELIMINARIES By BOB CHAMPION

PLEASANTON, CALIFORNIA—Defending champion Dale Lipovsky of Bloomington, Min-nesota, will head a group of six World Champions in the 67th Annual World Horseshoe Pitching Championships on the Alameda County Fairgrounds courts August 1 through Au-gust 13 at Pleasanton, California.

Sixteen year old 1987 Women's World champion Sandy McLachlin of Dresden, Ontario, Canada, who shot a record average 88.2 percent last year, will defend her title against a field of competitors which includes five other World Champions.

An entry figure of 826 pitchers will vie for top prize money to be distributed among the contestants in numerous men's and women's classes. Champions will be crowned in the men's open, intermediate, seniors, 70 and older in the 40 and 50 foot distance, plus the women's open, junior boys and junior girls divisions.

Top contenders in the men's Championship division will be former World Champions Walter Ray Williams, Jr. of Stockton, California; Jim Knisley, Bremen, Ohio; and Mark Seibold, Huntington, Indiana. Don Titcomb, San Jose, California, who finished fourth at Eau Claire, Wisconsin, last year, is moving from the Championship class to the men's intermediate, and Carl Steinfeldt, Clearwater, Florida, who was a sixth place finisher last year in the top class, will move to the men's seniors.

Other pitchers in the top 15 last year and their World position in 1987 returning to action include Kevin Hollister (3rd), Vermont; John Kapnis (7th), Massachusetts; Art Sperber (8th), Washington; Art Tyson (10th), New York; Paul LaCrosse (11th), Colorado; Alan Francis (12th), Missouri; Jesse Gonzales (13th), California; and Ben Weidrich (14th), Oregon.


WORLD—(Continued) Former Women's Champions in addition to McLachlin in the field include 10-time title

holder Vicki Winston (3rd last year), LaMonte, Missouri; Debby Michaud (4th), Raynham, Massachusetts; Tari Powell (5th), Pekin, Illinois; Phyllis Negaard (6th), St. Joseph, Minneso-ta; and Ruth Hangen, Getzville, New York.

Other women in the championship flight last year who are returning include second place finisher Diane Cantin, Canada, who was second in total percentage with 88.1; Sue Snyder (8th), Indiana; Fran Carnahan (9th), New York; Myrna Kissick (11th), Canada; Renee Cowan (12th), Virginia; and Bonnie Seibold (13th), Indiana.

Two-time World and this year's defending champion Debby Bestul of Eau Claire, Wiscon-sin, will return again in quest of her third Junior Girls crown, but 1987 Boys Champion Kipp Barody of New York will not compete at Pleasanton.

Other class defending champions will be Ray Hill, Wakefield, Michigan, in the men's seniors; and Elwood Johnson, Elmore, Minnesota, in the men's intermediate division.

The host State of California will send 379 entries to the 1988 World Tournament; 42 states and the Dominion of Canada will be represented in the 1988 World Tournament.

Contestants from the United States, Canada and Honduras will complete in classes based on ringer percentages. Last year at Eau Claire 1275 pitchers competed in 52 classes.

The last time the World Tournament was held in California was in 1973 at Eureka. There were 320 entries. The Alameda County Fairgrounds is located 30 miles north of San Jose and 50 miles south of San Francisco. The 32 courts will be housed in a modern open side structure which will provide ideal pitching conditions for the tournament and spectators.

NHPA PROMOTION COMMITTEE REPORT By SOL BERMAN, Chr.

this is a follow up on the report by Donnie Roberts that V.P. G. Bush was seen pitching horseshoes on T.V.

We're still trying to locate the T.V. channel that carried the tape.

With Walter Ray Williams on the PRA Tour—Walter Ray "has burst upon the scene the last couple of years. He has a very strong mental game, and he believes in himself. That stems from the championships he won when he was pitching horseshoes, and it carried over into his winning ways on tour. He's become confident because of his ability to win the last several years. He's very tough and not easily intimidated by anybody."

Marshall Holman, 1987 PBA Bowler of the Year, lists the seven players with the best mental games: Earl Anthony, M. Aulby, Dick Ritger, Mark Roth, Rick Steelsmith, Wayne Webb, and W. R. Williams Jr.

COWBOY—KEN RAYMOND By GLEN PORTT

As long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a cowboy. As a young boy I would fantasize riding the range with a big .45 on my hip, rescuing damsels in distress, holding them in my arms but never kissing them (that would be sissy), and then riding off into the sunset... for more adventures. After all, that's the way my movie cowboys did it. . . fellows like Tom Mix and Jack Hoxie . . . names not known today by too many . . . except some real old timers.

I never got to be a cowboy... but on a trip to Colorado in 1984,1 met one . . . a cowboy who not only rode the range but pitched horseshoes as well. I didn't talk to him as much as I would have liked to at that time but in 1986, we met again at Ainsworth . . . so we decided to get together for drinks, steak, and talk. Joining Ken Raymond and his lovely wife Ruth were myself, Glen and Bernice Henton, 10 time World Champion Ted Allen, and Bob Champion.

I knew a lot about Ken from reading a great article written by Bob Champion a few years back. Ken grew up the hard way. . . as we used to say. As a farm boy, he worked . . . and he worked hard. At age 13, he had the responsibility of raising 3000 turkeys a year.. . for feeding, herding, sleeping, and protecting them from coyotes. Rattlesnakes were plentiful and his first hobby was that of killing about 10 a day and collecting their rattles. (After all, what was a bored boy to do while the turkeys were grazing?) At age 19 (during WW II), his family farmed 1000 acres and threshed 60,000 bushels of grain per year. . . a great contribution to the U.S. war effort. After that conflict, his family sold its holdings, left Colorado, and began ranching in Wyoming where Ken now has 96,000 acres, runs about 1000 cattle, and puts up 30,000 bales of hay each year.

All good cowboys break broncs . . . but Ken was different. He didn't break them because he had\o... he broke them because he loved to. It was an addiction with him. An unbroken mustang was a challenge he


COWBOY—(Continued) couldn't resist. He looked forward to riding the wildest, toughest, meanest horse he could find. The saying "There was never a bronc which couldn't be rode . . . and never a rider that couldn't be throwed" held true for him. Sometimes he won. Sometimes he didn't. Two back surgeries, two broken legs, one broken arm, two knee operations, and several joint dislocations would be enough to stop most men. Not Ken Raymond .. . even at age 65.

I asked him, "Do you still break horses?"

He smiled. "Yes, but not as often as I used to. My son, Gary, takes care of that now. However, I still like the challenge. Whenever I see a wild one, there's that something inside me that says try it. It's hard to resist. I'll probably quit when I get a little older!" (At that point, I'm sure I heard Ruth quietly say, "You'd better!")

In 1973, Ken became addicted to a new sport. . . horseshoes. He bought his first pair of professional shoes and since then has been a leader in promoting the sport in Wyoming. In the last 13 years, he has won the state championship 7 times and finished in 2nd place the other 6. On his Ferris Mountain Ranch near Rawlins, he has installed professional courts and each year holds several tournaments . . . the biggest one being the Cowboy Open . . . held around the 4th of July. . . where everyone brings his/her bedroll, or sleeps in the bunkhouse, and enjoys the hospitality of the wide open spaces. (Wife Ruth is said to be a great cook. Someday I hope to find out.)

Cowboy? Yes. Rancher? Yes. But there are many other facets to this man. He is a civic leader in his community and state, and has held positions as president of the Wyoming Cattlemen's Association, the Farm Bureau, the 4-H Leaders, the Bowling Association, and others.

With all of this, is there anything else he does . . . just to keep busy? Yes. He collects guns, old bottles, antiques . . . and cuts, polishes and engraves precious stones . . . a lapadarian. He works with apple green jade . . . a Wyoming product. . . from which he makes jewelry, belt buckles, rings, and other beautiful items. I have a piece of his jade and can attest that it is really first class. To be honest,! should say I had a piece. My wife liked it. Satan is a Woman!

So to Ken Raymond who took me back to those fantasy days of riding the range, breaking broncs and always rescuing those damsels in distress . . . thanks.

I may think of him as a civic leader, an outstanding horseshoe pitching advocate, a gun collector, a lapadarian and a youth leader... but I'll remember him as a rancher, bronc rider. . . cowboy.
