Popular Announcer
Here for Rodeo
Busiest man this side of the
Platte river until snow flies is
Eldon Frock, North Hollywood-
lan, who is here to announce the
sixth annual Klamath Buckaroo
days.
Frock is not new to Klamath
rodeo fans as he MC'ed the show
here two years ago. But from
now on that man's busy. He'll
announce the state fair in Salem
this coming September and will
sandwich in the Santa Barbara
horse show, the Pasadena horse
show, several fairs in Washing
ton including the state blow-out,
and from there he flies to Dallas,
Tex., to handle the biggest rodeo
and fair in the south.
Not only does Frock know his
cowhands, but he understands
just what they are expected to
do and what they do do. In this
way he keeps the uninitiated in
formed as to arena events and
the intricate details of profes
sional riding, roping and dog
ging. If you want to enjoy the
show 100 per cent, keep your
ears open for Frock.

conditions prevailed.
It is expected South Sixth
will be made a one-way street
about 12 o'clock Sunday. Two-

the rodeo starts. When It is con
cluded, the street will be again
