I recal walking by during this Photo Session . Harold Ronk & Col. Trevor Bale ( Ringmasters reuniting )& Always in Fine Spirit !
In the '60s, Harold Ronk was decked out as Ringmaster/Announcer/Vocalist, but so was Trevor Bale. One season when I visited, they were dressed almost identically. I could understand Harold's appearance, but not the duplication of Trevor's. I was advised that along with his tiger act, he doubled as Performance Director, and was ever-ready to step in for Harold. At one point, Harold was somehow indisposed, or took time off, and it fell to Bob Dover to discourage Trevor from attempting the singing.
