The riders who are not used
to a saddle are going to ride
bareback again this year and
that’s a neat trick, too, when
done. There’s nothing to keep
the feet ¡from flying. A bareback
rider having a bad time looks
like a raggedy-Ann rag «loll be­
ing chastised by a small girl.
His arms and legs and head go
different directions and often his
connection with his horse is In­
cidental indeed.

Out of a string of bucket's such

Anyone who can stay on a reah
bucker for the required ten sec­

remembered as the longest sixth
of a minute he’ll ever experi­

There's more ways of getting
off a bucker than for staying on.
Riders get off from the side
when they come down from a
hit of extra sailing and find the
horse off to the left or right, or
maybe the horee goes one way
w lien the rider had planned to
go another. Then there’s some
who Just start up and forward
