Colprfur Appearance is Presented byiMolalla as Buckarop Program Starts By a Staff Representative Molalla, -nestling .where the floor of the valley starts to break into the approaches to the Cas cades, was host Tuesday at the Unltial day of its Backaroq pro gram. The town presented a gala appearance, with stores decorated with; flags and bunting, streamers flying across the streets, and a holiday spirit everywhere mani fest. The affair is a community enterprise, speaking not at all ir reverently, a sort of "passion play" of the old f rentier. The show continued through today and Thursday the Fourth, when the largest crowd of all la expected. While the crowd on the opening day was only moderately large, it was regarded as comparing well with attendance in previous years. This is the fifth season the young fellows at Molalla have staged the performance. The opening this year was blessed with presence ot numerous dignitaries who entered heartily into the spirit ot the occa sion, and dropped titles and for malities in the effort to enjoy themselves thoroughly; Governor and Mrs. Patterson, Secretary of State and Mrs. Hal Hoss, Mayor Baker of Portland. Tommy .Luke and William P. Merry and party of Portland, Henry Collins, presi dent of the Pendleton Roundup spent the day at the Molalla show. The morning parade was a col orful event, surprisingly varied, considering the fact that Molalla is a town of only 1000 Inhabitants. Led by an American Legion color guard bearing the J stars and stripes the parade moved through course, was George. And now he's back.

A splendid chicken dinner was served, and an oppor tunity for a rest under the -rich shade of the great trees before the events of the afternoon. The buckaroo may be -described as a real Pendleton show except on a smaller scale. The horses were most ot them just as mean to ride and handle and the calves as slippery to rope. Riding, the wild horses bare back started the pro gram with a series of thrills for the first three out of the chutes threw their riders to the dust Later riders had a little better success, and some of them stayed on their mounts the full limit. The most unique event was the ride ot . Bonnie Gray on her mount "King Tut,' making him' hurdle a Marmon touring car occupied by tnree people.
