Miscellaneous<br />
Several members of the Great;<br />
Y <strong>Circus</strong> recently visited Polack •<br />
Bros, and <strong>Circus</strong> Vargas at South-i<br />
ern California dates this month. ,<br />
During a recent shopping center<br />
engagement for Hoxie Bros.<br />
<strong>Circus</strong>, horse trainer Bradd Frank<br />
was cleaning up after his animals<br />
when a family group paused to admire<br />
the horses.<br />
A girl of about 10 was telling<br />
the others about the circus,<br />
what she had seen and the animals<br />
She commented that the man(Bradd)<br />
must be one of the circus performers.<br />
At this point a smaller girl<br />
of about 6 years, interrupted and<br />
said, "He's not a circus perform-er,<br />
he's only a groom. A peformet<br />
wouldn't do this sort of work."<br />
