| Transcript | - UNI 1/ERSITYof HOUSTON : RODEO ASSOCIATION Rodeo announcer Jack Saner is aided by three assistants. Excellent rodeo stock made staying on the broncs the required time a difficult job. M J 4£ L *)■■ 1 I 'JlS «* 1 • »* . X % Rodeo • . . Returns to UH; Huge Success Horses and cattle, cowboys and pretty girls filled a long unused portion of the campus when the school put on its first rodeo in five years on April 26-27. The University's rodeo lot, located just off Elgin, had been idle until a group of students rediscovered it. The lure of a rodeo proved so attractive that a campus organization, the UH Rodeo Association, was formed and gained campus recognition. Despite some powerful opposition, the results of their efforts was a full-grown college rodeo, with events including bareback bronc riding, calf roping, barrel racing, bull riding, bull dogging, calf dressing and wild cow milking. Contestants were limited to UH students only, but the Association hopes to become affiliated with the Intercollegiate Rodeo Association soon. Financially, in attendance and in campus support, the show proved to be an enormous success. L.y ■■ ^^k^g&fr *fMtt ^m\\ Bgf ■ l Ji NP lit .. i,.
