Youth Cyclists Take 150 Mile Trek In Two-Day Ride
Peter Schram and Mark Platt, both youths from Roswell area families, rode about 150 miles this week. They started Tuesday for Ruidoso with 50 pound packs, camped at KQA campground, and returned Thursday, noting several hills along the route. A mother cat adopted three bulldog puppies, sparking wonder at nature. Sgt. G B Brooks Jr of Goddard aims to give youth constructive activities with Sarge's Skateland opening Saturday. Weather forecaster Norman Gross predicts rain around August 12 with drought easing possibly by July 4, 1972.
