CHICAGO RODEO TO OPEN SATURDAY OF THIS Blood-stirring contests of the West begin next Saturday (July 28) at Soldier Field, when the world's championship Chicago tRodeo opens for nine days of cowboy-and cowgirl title clashes. This rodeo will decide the champions at bucking bronk riding, steer wrestling, calf roping, relay racing, trick and fancy riding, trick roping and cowgirl bronk riding. Also there will be afternoon and night contests in thrilling wild horse races, steer riding and bareback bronk riding. Champions in all classes will defend their titles against the best top hand contenders of the West for purses totalling $33,000 together with the championship trophies. Added to the thrill of these deathrisking contests which are not exhibitions, rodeo spectator^ will see the making of a big feature motion picture. Hoot Gibson, well known western screen star, has chosen the Chicago Rodeo as the setting of his newest photoplay. Hoot will film pictures of the actual contests and of the audiences, making the spectators part of the picture. This is the first chance Chicago audiences have had to see a feature film in the making and also to see themselves in the scenes. During the nine days of contesting from July 28 to Augusta 5, champion ships will be won and lost at Soldier Field. There could be no such thing a fixed contest in western sports where the most vicious outlaw bronks and the toughest longhorn steers are rolved. "No hoss that can't be rode, and no rider that can't be throwed" is a western axiom and even champion bronk riders are bucked off. Breath taking thrills are provided in every contest. For spectators who appreciate the fine points of bronk riding, steer wrestling, and roping, these contests offer the peekin western sports because only winners of the other contests have entered the competition. The largest cash purses of fered for western sports have brought the champions and their challengers together in Chicago. Men familiar with western sports assert that Chicago will see wilder bronk riding, faster steer wrestling and roping, and more hotly, fought relay racing than can be witnessed at any western rodeo. The failroads are giving reduced rates to Chicago during the Rodeo and estimate that more than 100,000 visitors will come here, especially from the West, to see the contests. The Chicago Rodeo with its average yearly attendance of 250,000 is the biggest sporting event held in America aside from the baseball world's series. "It is no disgrace to die poor."
