Best Rodeo Hands Wi Be in Action Movie, TV Version Is Not Accurate What is a cowboy? By the movies, and more recent ly on television, he has been paint ed in some remarkable hues as a saloon-dwelling gun slinger, a guitar-picking ballad hawler, an embroidery- covered clothes horse, a horse-kissing woman hater. All of these things he very def-1 initely is no. And Holt county fair goers on the two final days— Wednesday and Thursday, Aug ust 20-21—will see some of Amer ica’s best cowboys in action. Originally the western cowboy was exactly what his name im plies: a working cattleman. This he still is by the tens of thousands, riding daily to the stock a rope on his saddle and, like as not, a chaw in his cheek. Once or twice a year maybe on the Fourth of July or Labor Day, he’ll haul his rope horse to town and enter a rodeo. If he wins, he'll likely try his luck at another farther down the road. Winning there, he may go to ro deoing the year around. As rodeo, the cowboy’s part time sport, has matured and pros pered, it has created a new and growing group of •owboys real cowboys—the rodeo hands. They compete the year around and live primarily off their winnings. If a man’s a tough enough hand, he can make a lot more in the arena these days than he can working on a ranch. Most professional cowboy con icsiaiiih, line an aiuuuu uiauipivtiia Bill Linderman and Casey Tibbs, are ranch-reared hands in the classic tradition. Others, like all round champions Jim Shoulders and Harry Tompkins, might come from anywhere—from town, or even from back East. Rodeo is now a professional sport, with room for any kid from anywhere with the guts and the ability to make it pay. But no matter where he comes from once a man gets into rodeo, he becomes a cowboy. He wears western clothes exclusively. And, almost invariably, whatever he j can save of his winnings he salts away to invest in a ranch and cattle. Ever since Owen Wister wrote ‘‘The Virginian,” generations of Americans have pictured the cow boy as a lean hipped, tall walk ing, rugged individualist, quick to answer a smile, quicker to cor rect an insult. The impression is not far wrong. The rodeo cowboy is no boot scuffing, blushing country boy. He’s one of the most traveled cit izens of this land, crossing it from coast to coast and border to bor der several times a year in his pursuit of prize money. He com petes as readily for a hundred dollar day money in Buckeye, Ariz., as for the hundred thou sand won each year at Madison Square Garden. He’s no wastrel, because a man who makes his living outwitting broncs and wrestling steers has to stay in shape and sharp. But he likes to live. And he’s equally at home drinking til dawn in a stand up saloon in Red Lodge, Mont., or squiring a show girl ot Toots Shor’s in Manhattan. As a bachelor, he’s a gay blade, living it up from Boston, Mass., to Barstow, Calif. But as a fam ily man, with an average of three children, he’s a good husband and a fond father, who often drives 1,000 miles out of his way between rodeos to spend one day at home with his wife and kids. He’s quick to make a friend and seldom loses the friends he makes. But among strangers, he minds his own business. On the average he’s in his late twenties. Bronc riders start losing their winning lick about 30, most ropers and doggers quit be fore 40. He entered his first roedo, on the average, when he was 17. HOTEL LINDELL LINCOLN, NEBRASKA Mfr. Frank Klata ImmmMc Rota* FEATURING TILLMAN'S CAFETERIA His winnings won’t make him rich. If he's a champion, a top money winner he'U average $20,000 a year. If he’s a kid getting started, he’ll win perhaps a tenth of that, and will have to rely on his friends for entry fees and liv ing expenses during the lean weeks of the year-long season. He knows no financial security and he seeks none, preferring in stead the freedom of the suicide circuit as it is. He knows no salary, no appear ance money, no guarantees. His only income is what he can win and he pays his own expenses wherever he goes, pays an aver age $50 entry fee wherever he competes. But he competes where h»’ pleases and when he pleases. He can tie killed in an instant, or crippled for life by a kicking hoof or a driving horn. He’s seen it happen to his friends perhaps two of them a year. He'll suffer a bad break, a leg. a riti or maybe his neck an aver age of once every four years. But he’ll tie back to pay his entry and ride again long before the doctors agree the break is healed. He drinks liourbon and sweet, or straight and he smokes. But most often, on the ranch or in the arena, he chews. He cusses like a man should, hut never in front of a lady. He’s polite writh ladies and strangers, but a tiger whan wrong ed and a mighty tough man to fight. In the arena, he’ll help the | men who beat him, hazing for his rivals in steer wrestling, advis ing other bronc riders where to take the rein on a horse they've drawn for the first time. It never occurs to him that he might im prove his own chances by hazing the steer badly or lying about the rein. He makes his living m the one professional sport that has rtever had a major scandal and probably never will, a sport that w'orries little about cheating because few men ever try, few of the animals, drawn by lot, can be fixed. He knows the score, that he may get a little glory hut he’ll never get rich, that he could be dead or crippled tomorrow, that he’ll be all through for certain at an age when most men are just beginning to taste success. He's a cowboy. He’s a rodeo hand —and proud of it. Train-Savers File Another Legal Step The Save-the-Trains association Monday filed another legal docu ment with the Nebraska supreme court in its battle to reinstate Chi cago & North Western passenger trains 13 and 14 between Omaha and Chadron. The association filed a trans cript of Douglas coimty district court proceedings and a notice of appeal from that court’s dismissal of an action seeking to reinstate the two trains. The association also has filed contempt-of-court proceedings a gainst the railroad in supreme court on the grounds the trains were taken off without a mandate from that court. This will be con sidered this fall when the court reconvenes.
