Fcr.illcton's thirtieth annual Round-Up, Sept. 13, 14, 15; 16, will see a new president ride into the arena.
He's Eiil Switzler, (top), former pick-up man and many times judge at the internationally known western
show. Below, some of the 2,000 Indians, gorgeously costumed, who appear in parades, and who camp at the
Round-Up grounds during Round-Up week.
is found in that long amazing pro
cession, from the Indian travois
(pronounced trav-wah), used by the
redman to transport family goods
from one camp to another, to the
prairie schooner which creaked
westward with the first migration.
The Indians, 2,000 of them, bring a
brilliant climax to the mighty caval
cade; chiefs, bucks, braves, squaws
aged grandmothers, Indian maid
ens and tiny papooses, drowsing in
the beaded "tekashes" on their
mothers' backs.
This year sees a new Round-Up
president in the saddle; he's Bill
Switzler, active in the show since its
inception; a pick-up man in the
arena for 17 years, and seven times
judge.
For the evening hours, the vivid
Happy Canyon pageant, a story of
the old West, is offered, followed by
dancing and games.

Pendleton, Aug. 23. A whirlwind
drama of riding, roping, and bull
dogging, starring cowboys, cowgirls
and Indians, and with bucking
broncs, longhorn steers and bawling
calves as co-actors, the Pendleton
Round-Up will go into its thirtieth
annual performance for four thrill
packed days, September 13, 14, 15, 16.
Now in its third decade and inter
nationally known as the biggest
community-owned, non-profit rodeo
in existence, the Round-Up's com
petition is open to the world of top
hand performers, who will compete
for $9,365 prizes. Of this sum, $4400
goes for events in which points are
offered for the winner of the all-
round cowboy championship of the
world who'll be given the crown at
the close of the season's shows
throughout the United States.
The four major events at the
Round-Up are bucking, steer roping,
steer bulldogging, and calf roping,
and for the high point winner in
these goes also the $5000 sterling
silver Sam Jackson trophy. New
departure in the world championship
bucking this year will be the use of
chutes instead of the former method
of saddling the mounts in the arena.
The old system will be used for the
northwest bucking. Thus the Round
Up will be the only rodeo in the
country offering to spectators t
chance to compare the two methods.
Besides the daily parades at the
Round-Up grounds, the Pendleton
show offers its magnificent West
ward Ho! parade, staged nowhere
else in the world, which will wind
through Pendleton streets on Fri
day, third day of the show, at 10 a.
m. The parade was conceived as a
tribute to the pioneer of Oregon,
and its name came from his battle
cry. Some 5,000 participate, includ
ing whites and Indians, and every
entry is historically correct.
Original relics are used and exact
replicas have been constructed to re
place originals no longer in exist
ence. Every pioneer vehicle known
