Stone, Griffith, and Roberts entered the tiding events, while Kruse and Wood displayed their skill at roping. Day acted as all-purpose man Since he was able to rope or ride. Every university or college could' enter six men in the contest. There 1 was no restriction in thejinumber of events that either a toper or rider could enter. Rules followed at the rodeo were those set forth by | the Rodeo (jloWboy Association. Teams who participated last year were from the Universities of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming, Colorado A&M, New Mexico A&M. Arizona State Col lege, California Polytechnic School and California College of Agricul ture. Ove» four thousand fans watched last year’s rodeo. Intercollegiate rodeos owe at least part of their origin to the Universities of Arizona and of Vic 7l torville, California; Before the intercollegiate rodeos of either the Universities of Ari zona or Victorville were organized* college rodeos had /& vigorous Start at A&M. The first/ A&M show was held here in 1919. This was nof strictly a rodeo. It was called a livestock novelty show and was made up of livestock classes, pa-j rades, and riding contests. This event was repeated the following year. /j j In the fall of 1921, A&M Held its first college rodeo, and thus it appears quite evident that this contest antedates all other col lege rodeos by at least fifteen years. Since that time, rodeos have been held annually at A&M it r I, J1 LITARY SUPPLIES ALTERATIONS SUMMER SERGE • p! !■■ ;F p.l Made tjo Measure ? | yj- |; SHIRTS — SLACKS, !
