For the 1938 combine of these titles, Mabel Stark came out of the Baldwin Park barn with the biggest act of her career, between 22 and 18 mixed lions and tigers. When Johnny North was forced to close in Scranton, he sent select Ringling acts to Barnes-Sells Floto to survive the season. The performance was immense, and among the acts trimmed were the Dolly Jacobs riding lions. Terrell Jacobs's act remained, and so did the big act Mabel Stark put together in less than 5 weeks. When the show closed in Sarasota, Mabel came to the Goebel compound in Thousand Oaks for the remaining 29 years of her career.
