However, there are others, and man
by the name of David Hollins, at a
place called Warren, Ark, has gone
into the matter seriously and has been
SO bold to attempt to hitch the
famous animals of the sport of kings
to the stars and planets of the firma-
ment. Astrologer Hollins claims that
if he knows the exact hour of birth
of horse he can tell whether or not
the animal will ever make a success
full racer, and to prove his assertion
he has published a book containing
the horoscopes of 100 famous horses.
He claims that his system of deter
mining at birth whether or not a
horse is worth his salt will save turf
men thousands of dollars in training
expenses Among the famous horses
used to prove that the stars guide the
destinies of four footed animals as
well as bipeds is John r. Gentry,
owned by the late H. G.. Toler, of
Wichita; Peter Volo, Minor Heir, etc.
If Hollins' scheme proves a success,
it might be a good idea for baseball
magnuts to apply it to prospective
players before they start feeding them
at the beginning of the training sea-
son.
