SPORTS.
Bc5a WOaY.talI..

Everything in the sport world
is going full blast. Right here
in Newark our Cats open the
local grid season in meeting the
Cowboys from Columbus West.
West will be seeking to avenge
last years setback. The st.
Louis Cardinals and the Brook
lyn Dodgers are making history
in their sensational battle for the
national league pennant. The
Columbus Red Birds are on
their little World series. Denni-
son and Ohio State football
teams are shaping up. To write
a column this year concerning
any of the above mentioned ac-
tivities would be unfair to the
others, so we will talk about that
famous old sport, horse back rid
ing.
Of all the animals man loves,
the horse and dog come first. For
many years l have wondered why
man could so easily make up his
mind in deciding that the dog
is his best friend. | wondered
why the horse couldn't come clos
er to capturing the honor. Now
/ clearly understand it all. !
went horseback riding for the
first time recently (and perhaps
for the last). There were four
of US. Notre Dame put South
Bend on the map with the famed
-Four Horsemen" and consequent.
ly we tried to give Newark the
same break. 1t didn't work out SO
we'll.
Horseback riding is great, but
so is fishing. In mounting the
animal, you must approach from
a certain side. You then pick up
the reins and if they are handl-
ed correctly you get along fair
ly we'll. The only thing l knew
how to do was to pull on the
reins and yell "whoa!."
At first the horses walked
along, then trouble started. Cow
boy Bud Cole got his horse into
a gallop and our horses follow
ed suit. Buss (Tom Mix Logan
passed me in a cloud of dust. How
he held on | will never know. An
other cloud swept by me and in
the middle sat Jack Tim Tyler
Horchler. Tim looked like he was
only in the saddle half the time.
Then my old brown mare got the
urge. To find out why l didn't
fall off I'll have to viist Sinnett.
On our way back to the stables
we were forced to ride down
Broadway in Granville. And don't
think those four horses didn't
make a racket. / guess lot of
people thought a circus was COM
ing to town.
Some day l will again go
horseback riding, but before l
become a cowboy I want to see
our Wildcats from Newark Hi
in action this Friday night under
the lights at White field. P. S.
And | want to be able to sit
down and comfortably enjoy the
game.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1941-09-18

Clifford Orr, athletic director
for the Newark public schools
and Luther Hanshue, head foot
ball coach, both were of the
opinion recently that although
some top football payers have
been lost, that the Wildcats will
again give a good account of
themselves in spite of the heavy
schedule.
