Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

RUSTY FOUCHERStretching the net on Pat Anthony's arena. The last time I saw Rusty, he was working as a stage hand in Elmira, N.Y.~ "Big Red" wound up working in a Tuberculosis Hospital in NYC. where he had been a patient.~ "Coke" as many of you know later became Victor Julian's right hand man. Everyone asks whatever happened to Ray Miranda, but no one seems to know.
