Black and white photo of Jackie the burro and three individuals (left to right) Leo Figurski, Charles Shlesselman and Ralph Kotich. Jackie and Charles are in the air as the other two individuals reach their arms out towards them. Below the photo is a typed informative paragraph stating:"ALL SIX FEET OFF THE GROUND - Jackie the burro and Charles Shlesselman the boy go up in the air together as Leo Figurski (left) and Ralph Kotich of the county agent's office vainly try to "Hold 'er Newt!" The 11-year-old Charles, a member of Lincoln 4-H club on Orchard Mesa, didn't stay aboard long, as the lower photo shows; Jackie, owned by R.I. Goad, just stopped short but Charles kept right on going. It's all an action sample of the burro race to be staged July 14 at the Junior rodeo at Intermountain Memorial park. -Daily Sentinel photos by Bob Grant."
