BULL FIGHT IN RIO IS MILD AMUSEMENT BY MILES W. VAUGHN. (United Press Staff Correspondent) RIO DE JANEIRO—{By mati to ‘United Press)—Bulls rush in where coppers fear to tread! American tourists visiting a Rio bull fight got double entertainment for their money. They saw a lone dlack bull break up a near riot and send the pride of Brazil's picked Police scuttling over the wall of the arena. The excitement came just before the last fight. A chocolate-colored here, cla@ in @ white Hinpn sult, had conquered @ not-very-ferocious bull with his bare hands, spat in the bull's eye, twisted his tall and oth- erwise submitted the terror of the arena to humiliating indignities. The bull had retreated in chagrin and the populace was stepping on each other's toés to kiss the hero, when @ civillan with a loud voice a@nnounced to the world that hoe didn’t think much of the stunt or the hero. Then the fight bega: Police, spectators, bull-fighters, attendants and peanut boys traded wallops. Swords flashed and somebody even pulled a gun. Heads were cracknig right and left when the bull-keeper—a man of genius—had an inspiration. He opened the gate of the bull-pen and shouted, “Beware the bull!" That was enough. One look at a pait of capable horns mounted on the head of a wicked looking bel lower and the mob melted. Insults and @nmities were forgotten and a lot of clothing ruined in a mad scramble over the arena fence. The Bull Was Master ‘The fight was over and the bull —master of all he surveyed—~stop- pea to browse on the straw stuf- fings of the seat cushions which spectators had hurled into the mop to encourage their champions. As bullfights the spectacles which the American tourists had witness- ed all the elements of badly -writ- ten low comedy, The Portuguese style of bull fighting doesn’t per mit of killing the bull. ‘The show started with a parade of bullfighters and aasistants—led by a fat man dressed like the pic- ture of Benjamin Franklin when he visited the French court, and a somewhat bald jerson with a squarish jaw who might have been an imitation of George Washington on his wedding day. Benjamin aid George were on horses which danced to the music of n strong-lunged Portuguese band. ‘The fighters marched solemniy Benjamin and George blew kisses at the ladies and were hugged by their friends when they dismounted. When the diplomatic ceremonios were over Benjamin rotired. George mounted a new horse, took off his Napoleonic hat, selzed a handy: of barbed-pointed bandeiras ang got ready for the bull. Bult Wouldn't Fight. The bullfighter opened the gate the enemy appeared—a melancholy, runtish, black bull of mangy coat and listless mien. Red blankets, barbed arrows in his back, curses from the crowd and squawks of disgust from the slide-trombone player of the band faile@ to rouse the bull to fighting ire. He took a determined position in front of the gate and registered his deter. mination to stand right there until somebody led him back to the al- falfa pile. Which they did, after the chief bull tighter had called him everything from a “pig” to a “milk goat.” Bull No. 2 gave hope of a real fight. He even snorted mildly twice and pawed dust on his back when the overdreesed gentleman on horseback jabbeci barbed arrows in hig neck. But a flock of blanket- waving assistants spoiled it all. ) They advanced on the bull like the ™ whole Yale team charging a single Harvard back, so the bull turned tall and ran, scaling the arena fence like a greyhound. Bull No. 3 was a Zebu apparently suffering from hookworm. He stood sleepily in the center of the arena until the mob got through both- ering him and almost refused to wake up to be driven off stag pandas bits ——2 Thirty-Five Are Seized In Night Raid at Rawlins Special to The Tribune, RAWLINS, Wyo., May 12.—Thirty- five alleged gamblers, bootleggers and immoral women were rounded up in a wholesa’e raid conducted here late last night under leadership of M.
