Twenty thousand fans watched today's performance of the 11th an nual Round-up, which proved to be a better programme than was given yes terday when the weather conditions . 'Were not so ideal. The multitude in the city for the big how awoke this morning to find a sullen sky giving hints of rain, but as the afternoon progressed the sky cleared so that the afternoon, other than beincr a trifle frigid, was ideal lor the exhibition. The track and arena were In perfect condition. Officials consider today's crowd equal to that of the second day of any nrnMilInc vears. The crowd, the show, the events all are reaching limax. Tomorrow is being looked to as bringing the biggest crowd history. It is expected standing room will be at a premium. Thrills Are Supplied. The programme started today with rush. The crowd, now thoroughly saturated with round-up spirit, was eager and expectant for thrills. They wpre sunnlied with such from the minute that Tommy Douglas, round un clown set the packed galleries rocking with laughter by sticking to the oilv bareback of a lungin broncho until Buffalo Brady piloted an unbroken son of the range to the finish of the wild horse race. There are so many contestants signed up for the show that the man agement was forced to stagea fore- nnn nerf ormance in order to eliml nate some. A crowd of more than 3000 gathered for this show at which eight bucking horses and a like num ber of bull-doceing events were staged. Serious Accidents Avoided. Twice during the afternoon the crowd gasped when serious accidents appeared to be certain. Karlv on the programme, while giv inir an exhibition of trick riding, 3-30" Joyce, attired in a sailor's uni form, got his foot caught in a stirrup and his bucking mount dragged him for several yards with his head drag trine- near the earth. He was boo freed, however, and was cheered by the crowd when he smilingly waved his arms to the stands. In the bull dogging event Frank Cable, when hur tling from the back of his horse, missed his steer and was dragged for several yards with head dangling un der the feet of his horse. He was taken from the grounds bleeding and unconscious, but returned before the performance with wounds about his head bandaged and received an ova tion from the crowd. The relay races today were closely contested and new winners were re corded in most all of the events after thrilling neck-to-neck finishes. Dar ren Cannon, riding the Drumheller string, again won th cowboys' relay race. The time of the two-mile course and three changes of horses was 4:05 1-5. Scoop Martin, riding Harry Walters' string, was second, time 4:08, and Kenneth Kennedy on the Cantre'. string was third, time 4:29 3-5. Bob I.leheen Withdraws. Bob Lieheen, with the Irwin string, who took second yesterday, was forced to withdraw early in the race today when his horse went lame. Total contestants for the two days are Cannon 8:14 4-5, Martin 8:24 2-5 and Kennedy 9:01 2-5. The bucking horses procured for this year's show are the worst buck ers local Round-up fans have ever eeen in action. Four riders were sent to the sidelines, defeated by the rangy volcanic plungers n the 12 contests of this event in the after noon's show. Dave Myers was un seated from I. B. Dam. John Mag Bert was thrown' from Bill McAdoo when the latter insisted on lying down. Charles Johnson was unsuc cessful on Cork Screw and Don Brownell soared from the back of Tou Tell 'Em. Successful riders were Charles Runyan on Whistling Annie, I. W. Terry on No Name, Yakima Canute on Lena Norman, Cowan on I'omeroy, Jack Marr on Lou, Hippy Burmister on Rimrock and Bill King bam on Casey Jones. Banks Best llulldogerer. Orvall Banks made the best time in the bulldogging event, throwing his ' steer in 32 4-5 seconds; second best time, 40 2-5 seconds, was made by Bill Kingham. With 44 seconds, Jimmy Gangraw made the third best time. Cable was injured in this event and the other five contestants all made slow time. Contestants in the .steer-roping event failed to live up to their record set by the men in this event yesterday for getting their steers with the first toss of the lasso. Five of the per formers failed to classify within the limit time. Walter Sterling made the best time, which was 27 3-5 seconds. Second was Ray Bell, time 33 3-5 seconds, and third was Bill Kingham, 39 1-5 seconds. Roy Kivett. riding the Irwin string of horses, won the pony express race after placing second in the event yes terday. His time today was 2:05 3-5 and tils total time for the two days Is 4:16 4-5.

Darrelt Cannon, third yes terday, failed to place today, his horse veering from the track and running across the arena, early in the race. l.lrlV Ka Thrilling. The cow girls' relay race was thrill ing from start to finish. Lorena Trickey, on the Irwin string, second yesterday, won today, time 3:54 2-5. Total tiriie 7:55 4-5 Mabel Strickland, on the Drumheller string, yesterday's winner, took third, time 3:57, total 7:58 1-5. Donna Card, on the Harry Walters string, third yesterday, was i second.
