IBig Three-Day Rodeo
! Will Start
Great Crowds Expected
Everything In Readiness For Western Show At
Fair Grounds-Complete List of Riding,
Roping and Racing Events Provided
-Stores to Close
All the excitement and thrills of the western round-up
will be provided by riders, ropers and bull-doggers at
the annual three-day Rodeo which stalls at the , fair
grounds at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
, Everything is in readiness for the big show. The
performers, including some of the best riders and ropers
of the west, 'are ready for the pistol shot which will start
them off on the races or bucking contests. -Some
Real Buckers ' '
The BIy Rodeo association, which is staging the big
show, admittedly has some of the greatest bucking
bronc3 in the country. The Pendleton Round-up has
made frequent efforts to purchase their bucking horses
and equipment, which -indicates that no better horses
could be found. . : , . ,
Judges and other officials have been selected and
every event will be pulled off on schedule time, : and
will be over before 5 o'clock each afternoon, according
to the officials of the association. , -
A complete Rodeo program has been arranged. - Of
chief interest will be the bucking contests, in which half
the cowboys will compete the first day, the other half
tha second day and the winners ride it put f or? the prize
money on the final day. - ' ;. I,--;..
' 'There vill also be a bulf-dogging c'pnte.st and a cow
boy milking contest, both of which have a large number
of entries. .,
" The Racing Program ?
The racing program also will provide plenty of thrills.
These will include a half-mile free for all race; a quarter-mile
Indian race; a half-mile chariot race; a five
eights mile free for all race ; a 2-mile ladies relay race
and a wild horse race. All of these will be three-day
events' with competition keen from start to finish.
The ladies' relay race will find Lorena Trickey and
Bonnie Dare each riding a string of relay ponies. Both
these cowgirls have won; high honors throughout the
country, and their appearance at the Rodeo here this
year will add much to the value of the exhibition.
Many Visitors Coming'" ; t '
According to J. J. Miller, publicity director for the
Rodeo, the influx of .visitors started last night, and
many more are expected to arrive today and tomorrow
for the big show. The Rodeo is drawing persons from
other states as well as from many points in Oregon and
Northern California, and from all indications the public
support this year will be much better than ever before.
Klamath Falls merchants are backing' the Rodeo to
the lihiit. Practically every place of business ,wilL.-be
closed from 1 to 5 o'clock each afternoon, thus permit
ting their employes to attend the big show; This also
will serve to call the attention of the public generally
to the Rodeo and should result in a big attendance each
afternoon. - i;
