Set Up Day

From left to right…..The two fellows on the left were part of the Suarez family. In the middle is Raul, then Pino and Tommy Bentley. Tommy was responsible for getting the Suarez family started in this country. In 1974 we spent the season with Circus Suarez. I retrained a routine and worked their two elephants. Judy the African elephant was a jug head, I put a few tricks on her but never had the time to get her straighten out. Our main reason to be on the show was our chimp act. All I can say about these people is, “They are JUST GREAT”. This photo was taken on Kay Bros or Rudy Bros in the mid 1960’s.
