Looks like Swede Johnson at top, I remember Swede and Mabel From Wallace Bros. when I ran around with their son "Hunky". My High School buddy, Duane Bowman came to visit me in Hugo and someone called "Hey Buckles" and he said, "What did he just call you?" I replied, "It's a long story." |

Pat Valdo in what appears
to be a posed photo op
The clown at the bottom
is Prince Paul (Alpert)
The three clowns are, from the top, Myron Orton, Paul Jung and Prince Paul Alpert.

I believe Pat Valdo had been a clown
before he became Performance Director
John Ringling brought Pat Valdo in from Clown Alley to the staff position as Director of Personnel, telling him to run the job as he best saw fit. Valdo was a gentleman, on the level with everyone, and shared the very rare reputation with Merle Evans as not having an enemy on the lot.
Manfred Fritsch was given the
billing name of Valdo backwards
of "Doval" for his high wire act
(it wasn't for Dover & Valdo)
according to Art Concello
