Narrative:
At approximately XA30 hours I entered a 45 degree pattern for right traffic for a full stop landing on runway 17. Prior to entering the pattern and throughout; I announced my position and intentions. During these announcements I heard no other aircraft in the pattern. A few moments after announcing a one mile final for runway 17 full stop I observed a green cessna 150 to my right turning final. This aircraft was just below my nose 150 ft below me! I took evasive action by doing a go-around to the left of the runway and radioed my intentions. After completing my radio call I heard in broken english; something to the effect of 'final runway 17.' I reentered the pattern by turning upwind of runway 17 while this aircraft was taking off from runway 17. I then landed my aircraft. I remained on the ground and fifteen minutes later this aircraft landed and I observed two young men of foreign descent in the aircraft and photographed the plane. As the pilot walked passed me I asked him is he was aware that he had cut me off while I was on final. He looked at me with a blank stare as if he couldn't understand what I was asking. A few moments later the passenger came out and walked past. I asked him if he was a CFI and he said yes. I then asked him if he was aware that he had cut me off while I was on final. He said that he had announced turning base and final on the radio. I told him that I did not hear anything on the radio till after I was cut off and I announced that I was doing a go-around.
