The Baltimore County Kennel Club
is to be congratulated upon the sue
cessful and delightful show it held
yesterday on the polo grounds Of the
armory at Pikesville, Md. There were
1872 entries of top-quahty dogs and
approximately 10000 people paid to
see them.
Best dog in the show was Ch. Nornay
Saddler, the smooth fox terrier which
topped the National Capital event the
preceding day. This heavily marked,
black-headed terrier, the property Of
James M. Austin and his young
daughter, who own the Wissaboo
Kennels at Old Westbury. Long Island,
now has accounted for Is best in
show awards since his importation
into this country few months ago.
He is beautifully put together speci-
men, which has great appeal for
the terrier specialists who handle him
in the ring
The children's harding classes,
judged by Caroline Blagden OF Blue
Bell, Pa, drew enormous classes for
both boys and girls. The Judge really
regretted that it was against the rules
to give more than one first to each
group, since in her opinion the young
sters in the top few were very closely
matched in skill. Little Hetty Gene
Scaggs of Upper Marlboro, Md, was
flrst-prize winner in the girls group,
while Claire Nagle of New Brunswick,
N. j., was second. Among the boys,
Clifford Nagle, brother OF Claire, was
high winner, and Ed Bridges of Balti-
more was second.
Class for Racing Whippets.
The obedience test trials were q fea-
ture which also drew unusually high
entries and audiences. In the novice
class A, which is for amateurs both in
dogs and handlers, wide variety Of
breeds qualified for the companion dog
degree, including a Welsh corgi, a
cocker spaniel, collie, Shetland
sheepdog and a Chesapeake retriever
Among the highest score winners was
Bill Compton's German shepherd,
Ginger of Clarandall.
An innovation for dog shows was
the class for racing whippets. In this
class the whippets were allowed to
show their stuff over an improvised
track. And such yipping and squealing
was never before heard at a show.
The eagerness shown by the contend
ers was revelation to the bench show
exhibitors who had struggled with
pups that simply were uninterested in
showing their physical perfections.
The sporting group was headed by
the Irish setter, Red Sails of Salma-
gundi, owned by the Salmagundi Ken.
