BULLS AT SALTAIR
DECLINE TO FIGHT

Whether or not the world peace
movement has affected the Mexican
bulls at Saltair, they refused to notice
the padded men who tried to tease
them last night. Despite the fact that
a number of persons went out from Salt
Lake City to witness CORY spectacle
the four bulls quietly. and evidently
without fear, made a firm stand for
peace. One Of them protested when
seven men started to throw him rudely
to the floor Of the arena, but he did
not fight. He merely protested, but the
seven men respected his protests to
such an extent that it took them about
ten minutes to get the animal securely
tied
a feature Of the evening, if there
was a feature, was when one of the
blood thirsty men leaped over the back
Of the second bull. He did this neatly
and wave Of mild enthusiasm swept
over the small crowd. The men be
came more daring when the bulls
showed that they were absolutely
harmless and one of them came so near
to bull that his clothes were caught
on a sawed-off horn and excelsior pad
ding was scattered profusely about the
arena.
