De Baca County Deputy Medical Investigator Juan Chavez said officials were going to shut off water at Lake Sumner dam and resume the search at 8 a.m. today. Sheriff’s officers received a report Friday evening of a possible drowning at the diversion dam “along the Pecos River, north of US Highway 60 near milepost 325,” according to an NMSP press release. Colton Alexander Sawyer, 19, of Tularosa was said to have “not resurfaced” after jumping into the river with two others, the release said. The sheriff’s office was notified around 7:30 p.m. Friday, Chavez said, and state police were called in to assist around 9 p.m. NMSP’s Search and Recovery Dive Team searched the area Saturday morning, along with others, along the river south of the dam. Chavez said the search Saturday was “pretty exten- sive,” with “ranchers on horseback, ATVs, firemen, and people on boats” out looking for any sign of the teen.

JUNE 25 On this date ... 1977: Former President Gerald Ford, playing golf in Milwaukee, hit a spectator in the head with a tee shot. The spectator suffered a cut that required six stitches to close, but was not seri- ously injured. It wasn’t the last time Ford hit someone in the gallery with a golf shot. He once deadpanned, “I know that I am getting better ... because I am hitting fewer spectators.” Comedian Bob Hope directed multiple jokes at the president’s golf game. He said playing with Ford inspired him to take lessons: “Not golf lessons. First aid.”

1977: The Fabrific Fabric Center was having an end-of-month clearance. Brushed denim was $1.99 a yard. Jersey prints were two yards for $1. Purple and red polyester lining was four yards for 78 cents. The fabric center was at 911 Main in Clovis.

If you asked him, he’d tell you, but he didn’t really volunteer that much,” he said. James Kyte said his son also followed a pattern com- mon throughout his life: Making friends. “He had friends up there (in Montana) among the Indian tribes. He was friends with the descendants of the scouts for the Indian tribes up there that worked with Custer,” he said. While volunteering at the American Legion in Portales, James Kyte said he has been approached numer- ous times by Eastern New Mexico University profes- sors who had fond memories of his son as a graduate stu- dent in the archaeology pro- gram.

By David Grieder and Eamon Scarbrough STAFF WRITERS CLOVIS — Saturday’s Draggin’ Main attracted old-car fans and young-at-heart seniors who reminisced about the days when social media meant friends chatting loud enough to be heard above the car stereos on the main drag.
