(Special) NRA means "New Round-Up Attitude" In Pendleton, scene of 23 revivals of the spirit at the glsxnorous old wild west. Pendleton iolaa have discarded de pression worries and uncertainty ana hare their hearts act on w,h,'ng the forthcoming 1933 Round-Up Septem ber 21. 23 and 23, a worthy successor to the long chain of Oregon around the world. Out of this new Bound-Up attitude, or to be more exact, this renown round-up enthusiasm, comes the an nouncement that the round-up man. agenment has "taken the bit between their teeth- and boldly slashed ad mission prices for the September clas sic. Reserved seata that used to cost 12.50 are made available this year for sl.50 and sl.25. while bleacher seats. formerly 1.50 are to be sold lor 75 cent. At these pre-war time prices we hope, and expect, to pack 30.000 peo ple in the stands daily." Business Manager Roy w. Bitcer of the reorganized non-profit Pendleton Ronud-Dp association said yesterday. "What we want is twice eft many visi tors seeing the round-up at half the price of recent years In other words. volume of people rather than mere volume of revenue. The Pendleton Round-Op stands alone In that it Is put on lor the enjoyment of the folks In the northwest and to advertise the whole northwest throughout the country." "The Pendleton Round-Up will be sa big and colorful and dramatic as ever In lt history. We want to spike the rumors to tae contrary that have been floating around this summer. probahly originating as a natual by product of the late but not lamented depression. Our Pendleton show still remains ttie one competitive spectacle where the world's championships In riding, roping and bulldogglng are settled.
