Ranch Owner Declares Football More Brutal
 Than Cattle ROping

Struthers Burt, author and own CT of a ranch in Wyoming, was the speaker last night at the Second church forum. Wyoming Nights and Days" was the subject of his discussion. The speaker said that the state of mind of the old West is the same as that of New Eng land. He described dude ranches and declared that there Is nothing really brutal in roping, throwing and branding cattle. It Is not near ly as cruel as football, he declar- ed.
 peaking of the movies and magazines, he said the East has been deceived by pictures and stories of the West. The frontier has not really gone, he explained is worth anything.

 The freedom of the press is maintained by constant vigilance, E.
