RIDER THROWN At JUMPS


Hunters and jumpers on the first day =
program Of the Devon Horse SHOW
furnished thrills for the comparatively
few spectators at the Devon polo field
today.
Threatening weather in the carly
morning tended to keep down the at
Tendance for the opening. but the com
ing of clear skies Mt noon brought out
the usual crowd.
Societv women who arc conducting a
country fair at the polo field as 'sde
attraction" to the horse show were kept
busy by their customers throughout the
day. but the real work was done by the
ring men.
Tho norformapce of thc hunters over
tbe h,mns aftcr their winter "lay of
uas considered fair by the spectators.
hut moor by the ring men. who spent
most of their time picking up the rails
as fast as the mounts tore them down.
And tbey were knocked down very
often.
