A carload of wild longhorned Mexican Steers will arrive late today from Mulhall, Okla., and will be unloaded in a large corral
erected directly in front of the Grandstand, from where they will be turned loose from a chute each afternoon and evening
during the celebration and hotly pursued by horse and rider until finally roped and thrown, after which the steer is "hogtied
and ready for the branding iron, showing the usefulness of the lariat in everyday life of the cowboy.
George Weir of Monument, New Mexico, the Champion Steer Roper of the world, together with the expert ropers of our great west will
rope against time for first honors each day. Some very fast time will be made and the spectators will be shown one of the most
interesting and exciting events of the celebration.
In the bucking horse riding contest in which both cowboys and cowgirls participate, Eddie McCarty, world renowned broncho buster, who
has twice carried away first honors at the Cheyenne Round-Up will be featured. Scores of mankilling outlaw horses in whom the manhating
instinct never dies, snorting, pawing and kicking as they are led out on the end of a rope to be saddled. These notorious
outlaws will battle for their freedom and attempt to lose their riders. The Frontier Days Celebration management will pay
$25.00 for every horse brought in that the cowboys cannot ride, and farmers and stockmen are requested to bring in their bad horses.
The outlaw horses used in this contest are not trained to buck, but are ones that never will peacefully submit to saddle and bridle.
