LYNCH WINS RELAY.
Continued from Page IL

so early had been the rush. The
greatest crowd that ever witnessed a
sporting event in the northwest is be-
ing entertained by the Roundup to-
day. The Roundup crowd of that
famous September Saturday of 1919
is even surpassed, and yet there are
some people who counseled sus-
pension of the show this year for fear
OF poor patronage.
While the crowd was stin unsettled
and with bands playing in every cor
ner of the grounds, the bulls and bur
rows began bucking in the arena and
the starters shot sounded for the cow
pony race. Both in this race and the
squaw race following. a rider was
pitched from a horse but neither was
injured other than to receive n bad
shaking. The squaw was carried away
on a stretcher.
1t was jackson Sundown, the grand
old Indian who won the bucking
championship a year ago, who first
reused the audience to lusty cheering
As he rode about the track with Presi-
dent Taylor he was given an ovation
that might have been a continuation
o. that which greeted his great victory
a year ago. As picturesque as ever, he
proved as popular as ever, too. Though
he is not in the contest this year, he
gave an exhibition ride on big bay
bucker which proved that he has not
lost anything of his championship
ability.
The cowgirls' bucking contest was
the first championship event of the
day and pretty Bonny McCarrolI was
the first of the eight to mount. Her
mount was Brown Eyes and, when
she whipped him across the east end
of the arena, she was given a big
hand. Ollie Osborn made her third
ride today, her mount being Brandy
and she made a brilliant ride on this
sunfisher. Prairie Rose quirted Snake
with a vengeance and her flaxon curls
added to the picture. Wild Cat was
not wild enough to lost Mildred Doug-
las and EIoise Hastings had no great
