One Man Caged With Twenty-Five Lians and Ten Tigers Proves He Is Master At an Earlv Age Clyde Beatty’s Love for Animals Led Him to a Post in the Zoo—today He' Ranks Among the World’s Leading Trainers of Savage Beasts. - J B z < i■, p e ~~m»i 111 mil IL. - ? - Hl.

— Lion taming according to Clyde Beatty, of circus 4 fame, ha». like all other pursuit*, it» up» and down*. | He daily demonitratea before circus fans and dur- . ing rehearsal that the mighty king of the jungle has met a master. Not content with making lions and tigers go through their paces fcr the amusement of a thrill taring audience, this 24-year-old young man from Chillicothe, Ohio, locks himself

New York April If “music. ] hath charms to soothe the savage ' Least" so also 'lath yortng Clyde] I Beatty star trainer of the Ringling : I Brothers Ursus. 1 * '| Hew few es the many who enjoy| ' ithe Circus realize the dangers tn i I which tills young man of 24, with ; light brown hair, gray eyes set wide | . apart and a rather pale face, decor-1 lated with freckles, exposes himself | j daily. The grey eyes are not alone] ! his fortune, but they are also his hlfe insurance. With a coolness 15 1 which utterly disregards his dan- ' gerrms vocation, Beatty tells that 'looking a wtM beast of the jungle in the eye is enough to soothe the savage animal. Then well may he | ■ 1.-nni that his ryes are his fortune.. The least wavering, glance may | s break the hypnotic power through ioh he retains martery of the! ‘savage beasts. I Born in Chillieolh”, Ohio, a| an i.. early age ho developed an interest, >. i in animals. He got his start at tup I Ciiu innati Zoo. Actively, as a uc.y j Ihe began with horses, and when | .! this grew tame for his adventur-jus e spirit, he took up with bears. Tlr.so t in turn palled and attracted by the

♦ into a cage full of lions and tigers, all ready to I pounce on him if he should show the slightest sign ■ of wavering. He is unable to describe the power which he holds over tiie savage beast, but asserts that fearlessly looking a wild beast in the eye will many times calm him. Still, he does not advise s foolhardy attempt at this a, a m an. of .afety. Neither does he advise others to emulate him. 1

» * majesty of the kiiy of the jungle, lie took to lions. Tiring of them i ' lie decided to make lions and tigers I ! his charge. Since • .at, time, he has f lad no complaint of lack of thrills. I Each day he puts twenty-five | iors and ten tigers through their i -la'-es al the circus, all of whom are | ready to jump on him and end hi'I iifc of adventure, if he should show ] . e least sign of wavering. The BiaI ieetic lion, whose mighty roar luakes the air in the vast auditorium of Madison Square Garden, many times an unwilling performer, admlls the supremacy of the mod ern Daniel who locks himself in a I cage among the growling beasts. | The treacherous tiger, too, craw's to him and at a command topples i .ver, Beatty is as much at homo ■ sitting on the back of a large lion ! as he was in early youth on the back of owe of the patient horses a’, | Cincinnati Zoo. Os the future he is indifferent. . H< save that he probably will go the way of dll cl her trainers. Beatty remarks’ C at perhaps he will grow ; careless and thus write finis to a ; thrillin'.-. and dangerous tiff. This almost happened in Madison I

. Square Garifen a few days ago. The I during young man, in white riding I Mothes, turned his back for a moment to lash a charging tiger into a owed house cat. From above and .lehind a great Nubian lion, blackmaned, wicked and cunning, took a chance, leaped and struck downward with a savage swishing stroke if nis right forepaw. Young Beatty, on his toes, moving like a dancer, in this grim battle for life, turning twisting steel . i springs for feet caught out of the , I corner of an eye the shadow of the icapipg lion, and sprang to safety. Tlien began a duel, which was wit- . ncssed only by circus folk going ; Ihroni; i the routine of their acts—- • a duel between the two. man and • lion —which tasted for ten minutes, i Thi thiik impact of the leather ! tho"g could be heard through the arena- ’e breathing of the circus people, who stopped in their rehear- . -.al. knowing that young Beatty was ’ plaving with death. The strange • duel ended by Beatty driving his r .wentyfive lions and ten tigers jil! i leaning forward, mouth open. Ted tongues showing behind daggers of i j ivbry—every savage beast eager

I and ready for trouble. It was a thriller, but perhaps it may be an omen. But as this darinx ' young man who charms awa< the ferocity of his charges and singlehanded wrests vict6ry from the mighty paws of the king of thej jungle, remarks: "Never get careless, the best way to protect yourself is not to le* anything get started —or get tool far. j o
