BOY, THIS IS GOING TO BE ^-^EASY PfCKlM'S FROM NOW )

ALL HUMOR COMICS

ALL HUMOR COMICS

Yssmmw'T'HE Plaza de Toros was brim-full of avid

fans that. day. All bull fights drew great

crowds in Mexico City. But today there was a

special reason for the vast assembly: SenorCharley was to fight a bull!

Now in case you don't know about Senor

Charley—who is really known as Senor DonCarlos Morenas y Paehueas—vou should learn.

because he is without any question the greatest

torero in all Mexico!

So the crowds howled and threw seat cushions

and papers a*nd hats into the arena as each of

the preliminary fighters cither dispatched their

bull, or made a monkey out of themselves bynot doing so. A certain American comedian by

name of Charley was in the stands that day,

He was accompanied by one of Mexico's bright

officials of state.

"This fight," says the Mexican, "she will be

a great one. no? With Charley in the ring!

Aha!"

"Charley?" asked the American innocently.

"Is there then a Charley to fight?"

The Mexican nodded rapidly and moved his

hands in a gesture that said, "What colossal

dumbness, is there a Charley to fight!" But the

official let the gesture ride itself out without

saying anything.

The second prelim was about over. The bull

moved around the arena, one red eye cocked at

his tormentor, front feet pawing the ground

and loud snorts coming from his dusty nose.

The torero danced and pirouetted and shook

his cape in a fine manner. The bull rushed. Thefighter sidestepped daintily. .The fighter lost his

balance and sat down plunk in the sand. The old

bull, wise to all the tricks and alert for an open-

ing to do mayhem, whirled and came back with

a rush.

'Yow!" yelled the picydores as they dashed

in to fend off the snorting beast. The bull turned

aside and galloped off into the chutes, where

the gate had not been let down.

The fighter limped off the field, lamed by his

fall. Thv crowd hooted and jeered and built tiny

fires to show their derision. For such is *he wayof bullfight fans.

The next event was much the israe. It went

slow at first, speeded up toward tire end. Andthe torero, who was a shade better at his gamethan the last one, got in the faetia, or death

thrust just before the tired bull collapsed from

sheer fatigue.

Again the crowd yelled .their derision. This

was not a fight! This was a game! The bull

simply died from old age 1

Charley, the American comedian, nudged the

Mexican official. "Is this a bull fight?" he ask-

ed with a blank face.

"Si." said the official. "But I have seen more

exciting fights. There is yet one more of these

preliminary fights. Then, senor, watch!"

'I'm watching." replied the American im-

perturbably.

The next fight was good. Eticardo Mundez was

a fast, clever fighter from Madrid who knew all

the tricks. As he stepped nimbly around the

charging bull, the crowd went wild. They hurl-

ed hats now, not insults.

"You see," grinned the delighted Mexican

official, "it is wonderful when the torero really

fights the bull, no?"

The American nodded solemnly. And as

Fnlemnly replied, "Wonderful—when he fights

the bull."

The Mexican glanced covertly at his com-

panion, shrugged, and went back to admiring

the cape work of Senor Mundez from Madrid.

Norte Americanos were funny people, si.

The bull, a big red Minra, was bristling wth

bandilleros and bellowing his head off by this

time. Still the torero goaded him, allowing him

to rush so close that the wind of His passing

bent 'the cloth in his tight pants.

The crowd gasped, sighed, screamed. Youngsenoritas all but swooned from love of the great

torero

!

Then suddenly, just about the time the pica-

dores were tensing for the death thrust that

was coming, the bull changed tactics. With bis

ALL HUMORhead lowered, be charged. Bui instead of rush-

ing past, be hailed so abruptly that bis hooves

cut two valleys in the arena. Mundez, all set for

the rush, lost his stance

"Hi, hi!'1yelled the crowd, maddened by this

beautiful, unforeseen tactic.

Mundez swung his muleta as he swung his

body, to be set for the next rush the bull so

quickly began. But somehow the sword got

tangled in his eape. The bull's great horns

swiped past, hooking the eape.

Yee-i!M screamed the stands.

Mundez went over in a cloud of dust, then,

as the bull kept .galloping, he dragged on the

seat of his pants, arm caught in the twisted

eape. »

The pieadores rode furiously around the angry

bull, stabbing with lances, hurling insults, call-

ing the bull all sorts of names.

And at last Mundez worked \'rt>*> and scram-

bled to his feet. Ifis face was black with dust, -

his fine uniform grimy, and his cocked hat was

gone.

lie eyed the stands from which came hoots

now. The Mexican audience changes fast, and

it takes only a trifle to set loving hearts to

haling

But the bull wasn't finished. He came at the

confused fighter in a violent rush, swooped him

UP on long, curving horns and tossed him fifteen

feet across the arena. There was a wild shout-

ing from the audience, a wild yelling from the

pieadores* who rode their horses into a nice

tangle, which included the bull. Mirtldcz. and a

couple of men on foot.

The dust cloud was so thick that. none of the

melee could be observed.

It was this moment that I he American com-

edian. Charley, chose for his grand entrance..

Yelling like a wild Indian, he vaulted over I he

railing and dashed toward the congested mass

of men and horses and bull.

-'"Out of the way, lugs!" he roared. "Let me

at that fiit cow!"

The tangle magically untangled. The horse-

men rode furiously for the walls. The men on

foot sprinted away. Mundez again dragged him-

self to his feet, wavering and groggy. The bull

backed off. looking oddly surprised*

From somewhere the American had procured

a derby hat which he now clapped on his head.

COMICSIn bis hand was a crooked walking stiek. He'waved the stick at the crowd and shouted,

"Wanta see how it's done in Brooklyn?'

Again the stands changed heart. Here was a

wonderful diversion. Forgotten was poor Mun-

dez. who limped across the arena with head

hanging. Forgotten were old hates and displeas-

ures and government taxes.

"Yipp-ce!" shouted the American. "Come on,

you red ox!" .

The bull hesitated a moment, wondering what

was facing him. He had had time to get his

second wind. So this fellow wanted trouble!

With head lowered close to the ground, he

went into a fancy charge. Charley, the come-

dian, stood his ground. Even the most hard-

hearted fan gasped at this audacity. Why, the

crazy hombre did not have even a ^capc, let

alone a sword

!

As the bull swept up, Charley took off his

derby, doffed it to the prominent personages*

box, and sailed it directly into the face of the

mad bull

This strange thing halted him. He bellowed,

pawed and advanced a step, tentatively. Here

was a new one, even for him. He snorted, but

the fellow in front of him still stood. The bull

threw his head around, tossing the hat, which

had landed on a horn, almost at the feet of

Charley. Charley stooped and tossed the hat

back on.

Now!

The bull came with a rush. The six thousand

throats in the st;mds gave forth their best. This

time there would he fireworks'

But Charley merely stepped slightly out of

the path of the charge, stuck out his stiek, trip-

peel the bull, who went head firs! into the dust

and lay still, wind knocked out.

Charley casually marched forward, dusted a

place on the bull's withers with his hankie,

and calmly sat down with both feet on the bull's

nose.

When the noise had died down in the stands

and the police had stopped a dozen friendly

fights, Charley got. up, adjusted his derby and

marched out of the ring swinging his stiek.

The bull got to his feet slowly, looked after

bis vanquisher and shook his great head won-

dering!y.
