Evy Althoff's big tiger was named King, and every time he entered the ring, he drew an audible gasp from the crowd.

This was the tiger that Adolph

trained to ride the horse

Evy staggered everyone with her beauty, but I fretted about her attire. It was glamourous, but that dress looked confining and those heels were threatened by that cursed lacing on those green rubber mats. But she managed nicely and starred for years without my advice.
