Will
Rogers (1879-1935)
Will Rogers was the
star of Broadway and 71 movies of the 1920s and 1930s; a popular
broadcaster; besides writing more than 4,000 syndicated newspaper columns
and befriending Presidents, Senators and Kings.
Will Rogers' roping skills developed so special that he was listed in the
Guinness Book of Records for throwing three lassos at once: One rope caught
the running horse's neck, the other would hoop around the rider and the
third swooped up under the horse to loop all four legs.
