M official reporter Of the
W. Hedging horse show to be
= held at Virginia Beach this
Sunday, writes in to announce that
the junior committee has bought its
trophies, sold its concessions. put the
grounds in order and otherwise
whipped the situation into hand pre-
paratory to the opening gun Of a
meeting that will permit no one over
l8 years of age to have hand in its
management.
Miss Campbell, who also is pub
Usher OF a sage journal entitled the
Conversational Digest, devoted to CIV
ing her elders an idea of what they
ought to talk about at dinner, will
turn out all the news items pertinent
to this novel event. Judging from her
f1rst sample she will produce what is
known as the full report.
We have it on the word Of this pre-
cocious 14-year-old miss that the
youngsters who are to ride in the
various saddle horse, hunter and good
hands classes have between them
earned approximately 500 ribbons in
past competitions where the field was
not so strictly limited. Undoubtedly
placing all these budding stars in a
ring at one time will serve merely to
intensity the spirit Of battle.
Margaret Hill. the young Washing
tonian who has been invited to serve
as one of the judges, and Susan Boil
Ing, her colleague, may expect to find
themselves with a fine job of hair
splitting on their hands, a task at
which both are eminently capable.
AS suggestion of the eclat with
which the rising generation conducts
It's horsey affairs, Miss Campbell notes
that two owners from Greenwich,
Conn, shipped their ponies to Vir-
ginia Beach recently in an air-cooled
van equipped with electric lights, fans
and hot and cold running grooms.
The official committee consists OF
Patricia Thraves, James Wolcott, jr.,
and Bobby Henderson of Virginia
Beach, Ellie Wood Keith of Char
lottesville, Peggy KlipStein of Green
wich. Conn.,; Susan Potter Of Sewick-
ley, Pa. and Sarah Louise Adams of
San Antonio, Tex. Court photographer
for the occasion will be Sidney Banks,
jr., son Of the director of Virginia

Columbus Meeting Marred.

THE Columbus meeting, which con-

commendable outside course and some
of the better overnight horses, but
other things served to mar its pristine
beauty.
Chief among these was the con-
tinual bowling about the Judging on

some instances to state its class con-
ditions explicitly and fully. the man.
agement was left In a quandary by
these complaints, as either the judges
or the owners might have been right,
under the plausible interpretations
offered by both.
In one case where there was a pro-

Guilty, the judges were upheld, which
made the second protesting exhibitor
feel, naturally enough. that what was

sauce for the gander.
Too bad, as Vincent Lester, who
managed the show, unquestionably
had worked hard to make it salts
factory in every way. A bit more
precaution in specifying class condi-

judges and the owners a better idea
