CHILEAN RIDERS
SURE OF VICTORY
Twice Victorious as Inter-
American Horse Show Goes
Into Final Stages.
BY ROBERT B. PHILLIPS, JR.

Inc lnter-Amerlcan Horse snow
entered its final stage here this after
noon, with the invading Chilean riders
already certain of victory in their in
ternational jumping competition with
the United States Olympic Horse Show
team
For the second day in succession
the Chileans tasted triumph yesterday
afternoon while crowd of $500
thronged the exhibition grounds in
Rock Greek Park to admire their
horsemanship.
Horse Refuses Jump.
The native squad again was handi-
capped by elimination of one of its
horses. Under the rules, each team is
permitted to select the three best scores
out of the four turned in by its starters
and average them for the final reck-
oning. Saturday the United States
had no choice, because one of its
horses took the wrong course and was
disqualified. Yesterday. with revenge
still potentially within their grasp, the
North Americans saw their fourth
horse eliminated by three refusals,
again leaving them no alternative but
to stand on the three remaining scores
The ChileanS cinched the best two
out of three in the international series
yesterday, leaving the third contest
this afternoon in the status of an
exhibition, but the United States
forces were expected to make vigor-
Gus effort to redeem themselves and
forestall complete shellacking.
Capt. Yanez Is Victor.
All the honors earned by the agile
Latin-American gentlemen were not
confined to team events. Their top
horseman, Capt Eduardo Yanez, also
slipped over a fast one in the indi-
vidual military jumping. which he
won only by one-fifth of a second
from his nearest opponent, Capt. c.
c. Jadwin, on Ansopia. Yanez rode
Xysme.
The other outstanding blue of the
day went to Lieut.. Frank Henry of
Fort Myer, who beat large and for
midable field in the handy stakes.
Lieut.. Henry turned in a clever per-
formance with Clipped Wings. He
was credited with making blue rib
bon winner out of mare considered
a more or less hopeless prospect be-
fore she began training this season.
Henry and Clipped Wings added fur
ther to their laurelS by winning third
In the individual military division.
Whitney Horses Dominate.
The hunter classes yesterday were
again dominated by Mrs. John Hay
Whitneys Llangollen Stables. Her
two hunt teams placed first and Sec
ond in that event, defeating an array
of six other trios, and she won the
working hunter blue riding her Two
Leggins. That trial also found the
Fort Myer continent knocking at the
door of victory, with Capt. Marian
Carson earning well-deserved place
on his Turn On.
The program this afternoon was to
mark the last appearance of the
Olympic riders prior to their partici-
patton in the National Horse Show in
Madison Square Garden, beginning
November 6.
