WHAT IS A WILD WEST, ANYHOW? It's a meeting of the gamest cowboys, the most reckless steer riders, outlaws, tamers, racers, daredevils, wild horses, all out to break records or break necks, and sometimes they break both. It requires a place as large as the KILBIRNIE SPEEDWAY GROUNDS to show off the stunts. The arena is the right size,, and the accommodation for. the public is large enough, too. The cowboys and riders train continuously for these events, they're friendly enough, but the rivalry is pretty keen and the Australian and New Zealand stockmen, are out to put one "over" on Tex Hilton, George Carrion, Black Harry, Bud Pearson, and the other cow punchers; of course, they have mishaps, sometimes they are out for weeks, but the fascination of their daredevil stunts is in the blood. Theirs is a great life, and they never weaken.
