As the horse trots abit too fast, the girl gives a small g 'kick to his side, just to slow him down. But instead of slowing down, the Ara- . bian horse kicks back and hits the wall, making a noise which reverberates l throughout the entire stadium. Fortunately for Melanie Meyer, the judge did not catch the mishap. . According to Melanie, judges usually j determine which horse will win accord- ing to their individual tastes. It all depends on what the judge likes, she said. Melanie has ridden in Arabian horse shows for almost four years. As an amateur, Melanie attends about 12 horse shows per year throughout Texas and Louisiana. I English Pleasurej' in which the horse is judged, and Equitation, in which the rider is judged are the two . basic categories in which Melanie enters. , Between competitions, however. X Melanie trains and exercises her horse, j Imasuperstar, about three or four times a week for an hour at a time. l 'Imasuperstarj is kept at Bear Creek I Stables, where many contests are held. At an average horse show. Melanie explained, she arrives, checks in, and receives an entrance number before competition begins. From there on, many tasks must be completed. I clean the saddle, the bridle, and the horse, Melanie said, and I paint his feet tglossy blackj. Then I put on the habit, she added. Included in Mela- nie's habit are a special pair of socks. For good luck,', Melanie explained, I wear blue and white socks with supers- tar printed one them? Apparently,.skill and special socks have great effects, as Melanie has won 97 ribbons and prizes in all. Even in some shows where professionals had entered as well, Melanie was the only amateur to place. -- 30 - - Mmjianne Nelson INTENT CONCENTRATION on her posture and showmanship earns Melanie Meyer her winning reputation.

Hanging ten on two boards hether they are walls of concrete or walls of water, chances are that Sophomore Dick Silver has ridden them, and if he hasn't, he just might try. From the waves of Galveston, Free-V port, and Port Isabell, to his driveway, an empty swimming pool, or a skate- board park, Silver has been skate- boarding or surfboarding overvarious surfaces at various speeds and angles from the time he wasfive years old. Employed by Skateboard City and a competitor in many skate and surf competitions, the two related sports have become a major part of Silver's life. He skates, he says, every day, and, surfs, whenever there are waves - except on school days. He some- times awakensas early' as 4 a.m. to catch the waves in their best form. As a result of his surfing contest per- formances, he was invited to the 1977, U.S. Surfing Nationals, but my par- ents didn't want me to miss the first week of schoolf, he said, so he had to decline. g y I The only skateboard contest Silver likes tolcompete in is bowl riding, taking on the challenge of empty pools, pipes, anything that's vertical. In his first such competition, -Silver won second place, receiving as his award a T-shirt. Obviously, he doesnlt skate merely for the prizes g he does it for several rea- sons. Whenghe skates he represents his skating team and a sponsor or two who give him his equipment wholesale, and when he surfs he represents his surfing team, s ' If I surf for them, I, can get my boards a little cheaper. I can get enough points to go tothe surfing nationals, and that way I get to go ride some decent surf . . . mostly, you know, you just get to have a good time . . . it's just kind of a placelto go and surf with people you know, he said. Silver skates because, It's sort of a substitute for surfingf, and he surfs, because I like it. He stated,r It7s dif- ferent. You don,t have to buy a ticket to go doit, . . it's a fine feeling having something pick you up and beinggable io ride it. - 30 - -George Kiersled .
