Saving a fallen cowboy from possible death or injury . . . the ever-present rodeo clown, '•Still
well Shorty,” throws a cape in the fare of an enraged Brahma bull.

Clown’s Job Is Dangerous
Clowns are almost universally
regarded as happy - go - lucky
personalities with few cares or
responsibilities But rodeo
clowns are different.
These Pagliaccis of the dusty
arena have a deadly serious side
to their business that doesn’t
stem from an unrequited love.
“Stillwell Shorty”, who’ll clown
at the 1956 rodeo performances,
is not unlike the others.
They are among the bravest
men in the sport and their job
is easily the most dangerous. You
may watch them with amuse
ment through a long perfor-,
manee, but when the casual ob- j
servers clear out of the arena
for the bull riding event, you’ll
begin to appreciate the impor
tance of the rodeo clown.
Brahma bulls, unlike the
other animals in rodeo, hold a (
permanent grudge against hu- i
mans. After they have thrown
their rider, many will try to
gore him.
Pickup men, used to help the
rider down in bronc riding, are
of little value in bull riding. The
bulls won’t let the horses get
close enough.
It’s up to the clowns to move
in on foot and distract the bull
to give the rider a chance to dis
mount and reach safety. If a i
contestant is thrown and injur
ed, they must get the bull off
of him and keep it busy until the
cowboy is rescued.
The bulls are all individuals
and no two react alike. To do
their job well — and to keep
from being badly mauled — the
clowns must not only know the
general fighting characteristics
of the breed but also the pe
culiarities of hundreds of bulls.
ltut in spite of their hazar
dous work, most of them are
still clowns at heart and they
rarely stop when the lifesaving
part of the work Is over.
They'll taunt the hull and lot
him pass tantalizing close, play
ing him until the bull tires or
turns away.
Even this aspect of their work,
apparently done just for the
crowd, has its purpose. The bulls
have good memories and the
next time this particular
brnhama tosses its rider, he’ll go
first for the familiar figure in
the ridiculous striped shirt and
baggy pants, and that’s precisely
why the clown is there.
