Throng of Visitors Pours In to See
Entries at Fifth Annual Show
of Southwestern Ken

must take back seat in the affections
of the Los Angeles public until the close
of the fifth annual bench show of the
Southwestern Kennel club which opened
yesterday morning at AIS South Hill
street.
Such a verdict may be given as the
unanimous opinion of the hundreds of
men, women and children who formed
the first day crowd. Busy as bee
hive" will characterize very well the
| condition of the show building, and the
| officials were not the least who had
work to do and plenty of it. Scarcely
were the gates open at 10 o'clock when
| the throng of visitors began to pour IN,
and the attendants who depended upon
the early hours to get their benches in
condition were urged to hurry by the
eager multitude who wished to get at
| the bow-wows.
| The main room of the building was
given over for the occupancy of the
| sporting and larger breeds of CANNES,
and their tumultous quarters were Il
strong contrast to the secluded boudoir
| in the apartments of the top animals
and mi ladys pets.
such a subdivision proved wise later
| In the day. Growing more wrathful
each minute huge bulls and other fierce
| dogs tugged at their leashes struggling
| to maintain the nature conceded to
them after a glance at king Chewem
and similar names posted on their KEN
| nels.
on the other hand, docile pets to any
of which would have fitted an appella-
ton of Darling H. fawned or dis
played with sprightly actions just
enough doggishness to let their adj
mirers understand that they were not
silken limitations.
Aristocratic Dogs There
The entries include representatives
from aristocratic canine kennels in
every part of the country. Old cham
pions were there who have grown
weary of seeing their owners walk. con-
tentedly away with blue ribbons after
showing them in the judging ring. In
experienced puppies which told of anna
teurishness with every action made
desperate efforts to fool their adjudi-
Gators with scholarly looks.
Judging was begun at o'clock ana
in their decisions the prize awarders
were forced not only to contend with
all the degrees of unruly and restless
animals, but in many cases the owners.
like so many mothers in the proverDlal
baby show, were wont to disagree em-
phatically with the estimation placed
upon their pets. Fortunately such oc-
currenceS were III Liz llitllOiilJ, hO"
ever. and the majority of owners ac-
cepted yellow badge with almost the
same suavity that they would nave
gra sped the first award had 1t been ex-
tended.
Prominent among those who were
present in the judging ring were fan
ciers known by their kennels all over
the country and whose opinion on fancy
dogs is accepted as decisive. Arthur
Bennett, the noted sporting man, judged
| all breeds of sorting and field dogs, ana
| in every decision was applauded by
| those around the circle for his choice.
| Mr.. Bennett said that his classes
brought out a bumper entry in every
division, and 1t was very difficult to
choose the winners as the animals were
closely matched. Several new dogs
came as a surprise to the old exhibitors
and claimed prizes over many OF the
entries which were expected TO
clean up.
