The bull fight pictures were really re-
markable, and showed this strangely
anacronistic mixture Of pageantry, skill
and blood at its base. but the effect on
the American side OF the audience, par
ticularly the enlisted men, not much
acquainted with the traditions of the
bull fight, was rather otherwise than
the mpresario intended.
AS horse after horse was gored and
lifted bodily off the ground and thrown
off TO die with a few spasmodic kicks
or dragged TO its feet and sent at the
bull again, the soldiers became more
and more indignant. until finally some
were cursing aloud, as If the f,lckering
images on the screen were real. and
when one OF the matadors was finally
caught on the bulls horns and tossed
after he had thrust In his sword they
quite forgot the magnificent nerve and
actors skill with which the matador,
assisted TO his feet, faced the bull, and
with arrogant gesture. confident that he
had given the death stroke quietly
waited for the bull to die. and pro-
claimed aloud with evident satisfaction
that that was "the first time the old
bull had had show yet.

The statement also clearly indicates
that Beckers lawyers are placing some
