Kelli & Darrell Yoerger Kennewick ® Mike Young Atomic Body Shop Bernie Little & Budweiser - 6 A Winning Combination Miss Budweiser owner Bernie Little and Anheuser-Busch have been win ning unlimited hydroplane races and setting thunderboat speed records longer than any other team in the sport Little credits much of his own success as an owner to the solid, last ing relationship between himself and the world’s largest brewer. A relation ship which celebrates its 25th anni versary this year. Along with eight national champion ships. the Miss Budweiser has com piled a record of five American Power Boat Association Gold Cup titles, two world championships, and victories at every race site on the unlimited circuit. This impressive set of credentials has made Bernie Little the winningest team owner in the sport with 56 career vic tories coming into the 1987 racing season. Anyone familiar with the sport of unlimited hydroplane racing knows of Bernie Little. It is largely upon his per sonality and skill as an owner that the sport has developed during the past two decades. Long before there were corporate sponsorships, turbine- powered engines and cable television deals. Little had made a commitment to build the sport from the ground up. His previous Miss Budweiser hydro planes were perfect examples of his forward thinking, as in: the first offset cockpit, the first use of the Rolls-Royce Griffon engine, the first enclosed cock pit. and the first turbine-powered un limited hydroplane to win a race on salt water. This year, the Bud team introduces its newest Miss Budweiser unlimited hydroplane. Elected in 1986 as "Owner of the Year” by the Unlimited Racing Com mission. Little’s accomplishments in performance and design innovations are all the more impressive in light of the less-than-auspicious introduction he had to the sport at the 1963 Dixie Cup race in Guntersville. Ala. “I thought racing meant nothing more than buying gasoline, but when I looked down along the pit row and saw the Bardahi trucks and the sophistica tion of the Gale racing entourage, I wondered just what the hell I was get ting into.” said Little, recalling the day he first stepped into unlimited racing as a rookie with his first boat. Tempo. Little’s boat blew its engine, prema turely terminating its chances for a first-time success. A rival racing team’s crew chief later informed Little that theTempo, which he had obtained In a swap with band leader Guy Lombardo for a cabin cruiser in 1961. would probably perform better if its crank shaft was not installed backwards. During the awards banquet. Little’s first race was the subject of much amusement for the veteran unlimited racing fraternity. “I hate being the butt of jokes,” admits Little. “I could have easily have gone home after Guntersville and sold out: but instead I flew back to Tampa, got organized, began negotiating for new engines and equipment, and made the commitment to become a winner in unlimited hydroplane racing.” For the next quarter of a century. Little’s vow at Guntersville would ulti mately haunt every other unlimited racing team in the sport. Although the first five years of racing were tough ones for Little and the Bud team, inas much as they never won a race, a lesser man would have called it quits. The first win would come during a semi-feature event in 1965 called the Horace Dodge Memorial at Detroit. His first major trophy race victory on the unlimited circuit would come a year laterduring the AtomicCup held at the Tri-Cities. Little’s charismatic personality stretches outside the realms of boat racing as well. While the Miss Bud weiser team is the visible ornament of his empire, it also mirrors his rise from a depression-era teenager to a bigger- than-life superstar leading a mega buck dynasty in the transportation and beverage distribution industries, among others. Born in the small Ohio town of McComb, he worked as a youth operat- I ng a morn i i ig and eveni ng paper route and helping with his father’s construc tion business during the Great De pression. He also caddied at a golf course, where he would retrieve golf balls from the water hazard, repaint them and sell them back to the golfers. July 1987 Dear Unlimited. Hydroplane Fans:‘i 1972 Miss Budweiser 1982 Miss Budweiser 7 Having repeated both the fifth and eighth grades. Little opted for the life of a sailor at age 1 7.just in time for World War II. He joined the Navy and almost immediately was blown off the stern of a troop ship by a Japanese suicide sub during the invasion of Okinawa. Later, he spent the days after V-J Day on a slow-moving Liberty Ship clearing Japan's inland waters of American- laid magnetic mines—a very hazard ous task since the ship itself was used to attract the mines before they could be safely blown out of the water by a following destroyer. Shortly after his discharge from the Merchant Marine. Little met Jane, and nine days later they were married. After more than 40 years they are still married and have two sons, a daughter and grandchildren. He started a restaurant business with his brother, then sold cars, and in 1949 saved enough money to relocate On behalf of Budweiser beer and everyone at Anheuser-Busch, Inc., welcome to the 1987 Budweiser Columbia Cup race weekend. The Tri-Cities race promises to be one of the most exciting on the 1987 circuit and we are indeed proud to serve as a sponsor of this event. High lighting this year's event will be excit ing performances from some of the world's toughest competitors—includ ing driver Jim Kropfeld. who pilots the 1986 World Champion Miss Budweiser. We'd like to take this opportunity to extend our thanks to the Tri-City Water Follies Association and. more importantly, to the fans, for making this event in the Tri-Cities one of the premiere stops in all of motorsports racing. We hope you enjoy the racing this weekend. Thanks, again, for your enthusiasm and continued support of unlimited hydroplane racing. Sincerely. Michael J. Roarty J Executive Vice President in Miami where he became a success ful sales managerat a Lincoln-Mercury dealership. Soon after he fell in love with high-speed flying and became a stunt pilot during the 1950s. He returned to Miami virtually flat broke after his traveling airshow folded. Before long, he turned every thing around and began selling cars and airplanes, and in six years, had saved enough money to buy the St. Petersburg Airport. One day he saw Lombardo's four-seat hydro named Tempo. ”1 just had to have it—the minute I saw it I knew I had to have it." said Little. On an afternoon in 1961 he took August Busch III. then Anheuser- Busch vice president, on a 140 mph ride. A deal was struck for S5.000 to have the company sponsor the Tempo, and history was forever changed in favor of Bernie Little and Anheuser- Busch. the world's largest brewer. ¥ - r® 9 S' L F !>« 6 and all your goals will be easier to reach.

FALLACY: Everybody involved with staging this fun-filled event gets to party all the time, rub elbows with Bernie Little and Jim Kropfeld. and fill their pockets with lots of easy money afterwards. Believe it or not. only the winners of the Budweiser Columbia Cup and ICS races get to do all the things most fans think the peoplebchind the scenes get to do. If it wasn’t for a lot of people putting in a lot of unpaid time each year, our community’s biggest event couldn’t be held. Volunteers make the annual boat races succeed, and there are a lot of volunteers. So many, that mentioning all the people and organizations doing volunteer work would require several pages in this program—and even then, some people would unintentionally get overlooked, and their names would unfairly go unmentioned. But that doesn’t mean that the Tri Ci ties Water Follies Association regards them as unimportant. The only thing more important than the volunteers is the Columbia River itself. We need both to put on a race. If you find yourself standing next to a volunteer, give that volunteer a smile and a pleasant ’’Thank You.” That’s the kind of recognition that the volunteers are looking for. and that’s the kind of thank you that no printed word can provide. ratafOWK •i5rcH5'87 The front runner in communications.

Wash ington state is now the second largest producer of quality wine grapes in America. Although there is some vineyard acreage located west of the Cascades, the majority of the grapes produced in the Pacific Northwest are grown within a50-mile radius of thcTri-Citics. making thisarea the heart of the Pacific Northwest’s wine industry. A refreshing wine to finish a perfect meal or to comple ment cheese or other food is an experience to savor, espe cially if that wine is one of the nationally acclaimed wines produced in the Columbia River Basin and Yakima River Valley. These two river valleys are where the majority of the state’s vinifera grapes arc grown. The growth of the wine industry has included an increase in the number of wineries in the Tri-City area. There arc over two dozen wineries within easy touring distance. You may expect wine tours from the largest winery in the state to one located in the wine-maker's home. The larger, more established wineries may have expansive public tasting rooms and accommodations for groups. Whether it’s an informal tour of the grounds or a guided tour of some of the most sophisticated wine making equipment in the country, you will find many opportunities to sample the wines that have challenged the industry and won national awards. Most of the wineries have visiting hours, guided tours, gift shops and tasting rooms. Some have scenic grounds with picnic facilities where you can sample one of the most pleasurable souvenirs of our area—a bottle of pre mium Washington wine. July 5 Sunday.

Doug Tillson will again be missing this year from the Colum bia Cup pit crew. Doug suffered a heart attack just before last year’s race. He’s doing much better but is still not able to make it back to the pits. Doug was one of those who helped set up the original pit area and served on the pit crew for 20 consecutive years.
