CROWDS ARE ABSORBED Happy Canyon Provides Entertain ment for Thousands and Risks In Sports Thrill Crowds as Feats Are Performed. BT ADDISON BEKSETT. PESDLETON. Or.. Sept. 21. (Spe cial.) Two days ago Pendleton, taking the census of 1910 as a basis, -was the twelfth city in the state. Today it is by many thousands the second city, for on these two days practically every road In Oregron has led. to Pendleton. The roads of steel, the roads of rock, the roads of asphalt, the dirt roads and even the winding trails through the mountain passes and the sagebrush flats each has had its quota of travel ers, and all are now seated in and ground the great arena where the won derful Round-up is staged. And such a happy. Joyous, orderly audience, such a well-dressed, prosperous-looking audience. It should make the heart of every Oregonian glad to know that so many thousands of our citizens can be packed into a little city like Pendleton without the slightest tinge of disorder or even of discom fort. Rsmi-ap Gets la Blood. One frequently hears a person say: "I would like to go to the Round-up Just once." The poor dunce. To go once is like taking a sip of rare old wine: it gets into the blood and creates the craving for more. To come to the Round-up Is to wish to see it every year. It never grows old, it never grows tame, each coming event is better than the last, better than the year previous. I do not think enough is said about the night sports at Happy Canyon. It is a splendid entertainment, made up of sports from the thriller of near tragedy to the heights and depths of low-comedy. The Happy Canyon build ings and arena occupy a block 200 feet square: the seats and standing room -will care for an audience of nearly 6000, yet last night nearly that num ber was turned away before 8 o'clock for want of seats or standing room. So one of the problems of the Round up officials is to find additional seat ing capacity at Happy Canyon. SOO Are Participants. It will likely amaze some of the readers of The Oregonian to learn that snout 800 human beings take part each year in the various Round-up feats and activities and that the horses and steers number 2000. The hay used at the present Round-up will amount to 200 tons, aside from four carloads of timothy bay for the racing stock then add to these items four carloads of oats and chop for the stock and you will have some idea of the size of the great show. Today, as yesterday, the sports have teen exceedingly fine, the races In par ticular having such close finishes as to bring the great audience to -its feet as one man as the stretch was reached. There have been falls and "spills" enough to give zest to the sport There have been some minor aches and pains, but it is risks, the ruggedness of the vents, that give them the merit. Snorts Full of Risks. The sports are neither so "brutal" nor so dangerous as baseball and be cause a ballplayer Is "beaned" now and then, or a life or limb is occasionally taken on the diamond, would the reader suggest the using of cotton batting balls, padded bats and a fast walk In "running" the bases? Nay, nay. We want our sports flavored with risk and heroism, such as are displayed at the Round-up. A perfect day as to weather, a typical day of fleecy clouds and, hazed sun shine, with temperature just right and the sports fast and furious and as per fect as the day. Such was the second day of the eighth annual Pendleton Round-up. ROrJTD-TJP RIDLXG SEXSATIOXAL Twenty Thousand Persons Thrill at k Backing Contests. PENDLETON. Or, Sept. 21. (Spe cial.) Fine riding and fiery buckers marked the events of the second day of the eighth annual Pendleton Round-up. There were more sensational rides in the bucking contests today than in any other one day in the history of the show. This was true not only of the men. but of the women. The same drive was apparent in the. riding of the contestants in tne men s and women's relays today as yesterday. Allen Drumheller lost today's race in the cowboy relay to Nap Lynch, but for the two days he still holds a lead of 3 1-5 seconds. Summary: Cowboys' pony race Eddie Turk. Fleepy Armstrong.
