Mail to: Royal Purple Booklet P.O. IT WAS a hot Sunday afternoon in Helena, Mont., and the crowd that packed the stadium at the Lewis and Clark Fairgrounds for the finals of the National High School Rodeo expected the drama of a western showdown. In the preceding days of the seven-day event, Washington State and Texas traded the lead and Arizona was in position to challenge. Across in front of the chutes, each of fourteen nervous cowgirls had their chance to wrestle a smooth buck.

TRUCKIN' 'EM IN IOWA
On the sidewalk at the time, 17-year-old Roger couldn't help but notice the rough ride the driver got out of the big white Frcightliner and decided not to be quiet anymore. He told the driver that instead of taking more detours on the way to road speed, he could smooth things out a lot if he engaged every gear on the big ten-speed transmission. When there is enough at the salvage yard for half a load, he loads them up and takes them to a packer, usually Perry.
By the time he got back, the other truckers had hauled in another load, so it was loaded up again and off to the packers. Roger averages between two and three Green-. Uneven hours and its own lies for the weather (if the weather is good, more farmers will work in the field and not sort and send pigs or cattle). The week before Roger was interviewed in early June, he covered 3,100 miles between a Tuesday and a Sunday.
