Jackson County Mounted Sheriff's Posse will hold a Vic tory Rodeo, believed to be one of the first by that name to be held in the United States, at the Fairgrounds Saturday night, Sept. 8, and Sunday afternoon, Sept. 9. A recent meeting of the sher iff's posse was attended by the executive committee and snow committee and representatives of Christensen Brothers, rodeo pro ducers, of Eugene. It was decided to make the Victory Rodeo one of the top shows of the entire west by making purses double that of prior shows and a mem bership application was made to Rodeo Cowboys' association to make the September event a "member" show. By joining the RCA, contestants will be award ed points in national 'competi tion along with shows at Pendle ton, Cheyenne, Calgary and Mad ison Square Garden. Fidler Chairman C. Lyle "Flash" Fidler was named general chairman of the big two-day show and will han dle all advertising, ticket sales and work in cooperation with the sheriff's posse and Christen sen Brothers, producers of the show. "Hank" and "Bobby" Chris tensen have produced the lead ing rodeos throughout the north west for several years, Fidlcar said. This year they again pro duced the Jantzen Beach rodeo at Portland, the fair and rodeo at Longvicw, Wash., and are pro ducing shows at Recdsport, Eu gene, Roseburg and Sisters, as well as a Labor Day show at Spokane. Early last spring they made a trip into Old Mexico, according to Fidler, and brought back a carload of the toughest Brahma bulls ever seen in a ro deo arena. They have selected the top bucking horses of the west for their shows, Fidler ad ded. Arrangements have been com pleted for the Douglas County Sheriff's Posse of Roseburg to appear at both shows and a dele gation from the Siskiyou County posse will also be here for both days. Events Listed Events will consist of saddle bronc riding, bareback riding, Brahma bull riding, steer stop ping, bulldogging, calf roping and numerous other events, such as trick riders and ropers, clown.", musical chair races and a full three and a half-hour pro gram of thrills is scheduled. Since the show, which will be an annual event, is scheduled a week ahead of the great Tcndlc ton Round-Up, it is only logical that the best riders, ropers and other contestants will appear, in asmuch as any points earned will count on their RCA standings. Rodeo headquarters have been opened at 122 North Riverside avenue where all iniormauun ic garding entries, purses and other general information may be se cured.
