Jennie O'Brien to Appear ( With Circus Here Sept. 30 I Jennie O'Brien, 2L, and pretty, i " famous equestrienne with the King Bros, and Cole Bros, combined Circus, like nearly all on the list of performers, has inherited her strength and skill and daring. The life of sawdust and span gles is the only life she has ever known as she was born while her parents were with a circus ex hibiting at the time in Copenha gen, Denmark. She represents the third generation of a famous cir cus family. Whlie her act lasts but eight1 minutes, months and years of con stant practice was required by Miss O'Brien to perfect her act. There is no act with a circus more daring than that of a bareback rider. It requires extreme skill to turn a somersault from a galloping horse to the ground without ex periencing a sprained ankle. Equally important is the train ing of the ring stock. A circus ring is 40 feet in diameter and to keep from throwing a performer off balance a horse must take just so many measured steps. The gait must be mathematically uniform. A serious injury to a performer might result if a horse stumbled. Among the 150 performers with the Circus coming to Morehead b City, Friday. Sept. 30. for perform , ances at 2 and 8 p.m. are 20 riders. But the brilliant work of none v stands out brighter than that of Miss O'Brien. ^>he is an accom s plished somersaulting rider. Just now she has about perfect - . ed, after six years of practice, the v turning of a backward somersault from one running horse to ano ther galloping horse. A feat that 1 only a few male riders have ac r complished. Old Photograph Found 1 In Tearing Down Door Magnolia. Ark. (AP)?
