Seems irst
With ) Wins
George S. Wallen Is Close
Contender for
Honors
By J. S. Mitchell

4 sharp tilt, and subsequently an
even break, for the blue ribbons be-
tween Walter II. Hanley, the Rhode
Island exhibitor, and George S. Wallen,
q local follower Of the show ring. feat
ured the third day of the Westchester
Horse Show on the Gedney Farm at
White Plains yesterday.
Both exhibitors scored twice, but by
the hypercritical element the palm was
conceded to Hanley, who won most eff
fectively with Driftwood Blaze and
Twilight, a brace of we'll schooled sad
die horses superbly handled in the
ring yesterday by Mrs. Hanley.
Twilight figures in the heavyweight
elass and Driftwod Blaze in the light
weight division. and rs both have not
met with defeat in the show SO far they
ere more than likely to come out with
fving colors in their respective cham
pionships, to be judged this afternoon.
As far as the firsts now go Hanley is
ahead with five wins, and, except some
unforeseen fancy might hit the judicial
department., the Providence man seems
to have cinch on the majority honors.
Those around the clubhouse who were
good at hair splitting had it that Wal
lens brackets were inferior to Han
ley's yesterday. as one was in a pony
class the piebald Jlngaboo accounting
for the blue. The pony was ridden by
Master George Wallen and shown to
perfection. This WAS his second win in
the show
Incident Stirs Gossip
Considerable gossip futtered about
the show over an incident in connection
with the judging of a class of saddle
horses. and it was seemingly precipi-
tnted by one of the show ring condi-
tions, which in this case called for
amateur riders. Two chestnut mares

After the horses had been cantered, trot-
ted and walked they were lined up for
The final test Just then the entries
Of Mr.. Rich suddenly got the gate. No
definite information on the real cause
OF the proceeding was forthcoming
from the executive department, but
,umor had it that the riders did not
talfl the requirements of the competi
ton.
a variation which proved highly in
teresting to the society women who

was given by Troop X, who are quar-
tered on the grounds. They went
through all the cavalry man@uvres. and
their exhibition was loudly applauded.
