One could talk freely.
The Bullfight a Bright Spot
To Canadian readers, it must seem
strange when I say that the -bullfight
I saw in Lisbon provided some recre-
ation.
Truly, 1 never expected to be seen
at a bullfight, and o1i a Sunday after-
noon, of all tines. It took some time
for the idea to sink in. B. K. Sand-
well and I wabred up the Avenida da
Liberdale on a Saturday afternoon,
dodging the hawkers 'who tried to
press lottery tickets on us, and look-
ing at the sights. The huge, colored
posters advertising the bullfight fas-
cinated us. They bore some resem-
blance to fall fair posters back home,
but they had•pictures- in brilliant
colors of toreadors and raging built.
Slowly, we ' translated the posters --or
thought we did. The top line was
clear enough, "8 Bravos Torros." "8
Brave Bulls." And then the time and
the place "`and the price, which was
only 15 escudos or .less than 75 cents
for box seats. But the line that really
fascinated us was 'down • near the
bottom; "6 Torros Disembollos." We
shuddered over it. "Good gosh,_ Temp -
lin, said Mr. Sandwell. 'It must be
"a bloody' spectacle if they are going
to disembowel six bulls."
Back in the hotel, others of our
party had other details. They said
the bulls weren't killed, It was all
just pretend. Bait was the national
sport, •something like hockey. We
shouldn't miss it. Besides, a young
Portugese Army officer, who spoke
excellent English, would accompany
us to explain the free points. One of
the .crowd had already „arranged for.
two boxes for the party.
,...Isis!?.enta._sail:l?ng has.. a, magnificent
setting: ' The taxicab turned out of
the broad Avenida into a beautiful
park. In the centre rose the gerat,
circular bull -rings a tall structure in
fancy Moorish . architecture. People
were gettirrg out of cars all around
it, while hundreds of other/ came off
the street cars or on foot.
The ,Portugese Lieutenant found
the proper door and we began to
climb up and by on concrete stairs.
It reminded •me of the Maple Leaf
Gardens in Toronto. It Was another
typical "hockey crowd,", Mostly fairly
young people, a few families with the
children accompanying the parents.
They were a happy, excited lot.
The. box seats were up at. the top,
on the shady, side. - Lisbon is a hot
place. The temperature in the day-

On the Side of ,the Bulls
The Portugese bullfight, as it turn-
ed out, is not a bloody• spectacle, but
rather a ,pageant. , HHorses• and cos-
tumes are beautiful and even the bulls
look impressive as they came on at
first, snorting.` and occasionally' paw-
ing the sand. But no +blood is spilled,
no animals are killed•="and no person
gets hurt, though that • was ;nerely.`
because the bulls failed to follow up
their advantages, when they came.
It was less cruel thana rodeo, much
less exciting than a junior hockey
match, less dangerous, apparently.
than senior rugby football.
The costumes were beautiful, all
covered with old braid on bright
colors. There were toreadors, who

was cleared. A gate e•t the left open-

other gate across the ring opened and
a horseman entered, while toreadors
jumped over the fence into the cir-

After his first rush, the 'bull had
lost his enthusiasm. The toreadors
waved their red capes at him and he
charged tahem, while they neatly side-
stepped, or turned over their capes to
show the yellow side, whereupon 'the
