able bronx and once they manage to
throw rider they usually 60 back
and try to kill him with their hoofs or
horns. Mounted cowboys have to be
kept handy to herd them off and even
then they attack the horses. 1t would
be impossible to use them without the
big, brass knobs on their horns, which
prevents goring.
Another bunch Of one hundred long
horned Mexican steers has been picked
out from the herds along the Rio
Grande and will be used in the steer
wrestling contests. These animals will
average 900 pounds in weight, the
heaviest used in any cowboy contests.
They too. are being conditioned for the
rodeo. The cowboys have to catch
them with their hands and twist them
down in two minutes. The $4,000
purse and worlds championship belt
in this event will bring out the great
est bunch Of steer wrestlers ever seen
at a rodeo.
"A hundred three-hundred pound
white-faced calves will complete the
list Of cattle at the rodeo. They are
used in the calf roping contests The
cowboys have to rope and step them
without throwing them. Then the
roper has to dismount and hand-throw
the husky young beeves and tie three
feet together. They are timed in this
event and the lowest time on nine
calves determines the champion each
