Every American woman can

Helgate Rodeo
Assc. To Put On
July Programs

The Helgate Rodeo Association,
owned by Bud Lake & Associates
of Kalispell, will again present
the annua al programs at the
Browning fair grounds, n d I
conditions of a contract that is
being drawn up by the Browning
Fair Association.
Date of the event will be July
3 and 4, the project having been
confined to two days, in place of
former three days.
Lake was here from Kalispell
last Thursday evening to attend
a meeting of the F a i r Associa-
ton, at which conditions of the
contract were mutually agreed
upon.
The Helgate Rodeo Association
will assume responsibility in the
sale of general admission tickets
at the gate and of policing the
rodeo grounds. The Fair Associa-
ton will retain concession rights
as well as derive all of the reve-
nue. from the grandstand.
The Helgate Rodeo Association
took a heavy loss last year by not
having charge of the gate, Lake
said. By assuming charge a n d
having outside workers of res
possibility as gatemen, it was
generally agreed, there should be
a minimum of financial leakage.
At the close of the project last
year, it was estimated that the
Helgate Rodeo Association lost
upwards Of $500 because of I'M
collected admissions and "sneak
under the tent" fans.
