MORTIMER A BUSY JUDGE
Champion Slumber and Orchard
Snowstorm Win at Long
Beach Kennel Club
Fixture.

Under a tent, which was spread over the
Enclosure opposite the Hotel Nassau. the
Long Beach Kennel Club, with Frank
Dale In the van, held its opening dog
show yesterday.
Most Of the large kennels were repre-
scented, and the only fly in the syrup was
the heat which sent the dogs painting into
the shady corners Of their benches and
necessitated the shedding Of various
jaunty green and red polo coats. When
the temperature reached the boiling point,
however some one suggested taking away
the canvas which shut of the ocean
breezes, and this proved a lifesaver.
James Mortimer found before the day
was over that judging all other breeds
and unclassifed specials" was by no
means as easy as 1t sounded. Mr. Morti-
mer had in his jurisdiction Russian wolf
hounds, Scottish deerhounds, grey
hounds, sporting spaniels, beagles. Old
English sheepdogs. Dalmatians, Samoy-
edes. Airedales. fox terriers. Sealyhans,
Irish and Welsh terriers and a number
Of the smaller breeds.
AS usual, the judging of the unclassiied
specials proved the feature of the show.
