Jockey Back
From Europe

NEW YORK-Samuel Jay Busn'
famous rider and trainer OF horses
who returned to his native Amer
ica several weeks ago after an al
most continuous exile of 35 years
in France and continental Europe
was warm in his thanks this week
for the invaluable help Negro
newspapers have given him in re-
establishing himself as a working
hoTseman.
A story on Bush carried in the
Negro press two weeks ago has leo,
he told newsmen at the Hotel
Theresa, to several offers to take
over the keeping and training OF
horses-notably from Hollywood
movie people.
While in Europe, Bush rode tof
the Aga Khan, wealthy Indian Po-
tentate and sportsman, and for D.
E. Widener who raced his stable
in France. Twice he won the
Grand PriX de la Tourquet, ana
important French jumping event.
He still holds his authorization 10
ride and train horses from the
Secretaire General de la Soclete
encouragement pour Amencra-
ton des races de chayauz en-
France.
In the United States, Bush will
be remembered by oldtimers for
his victories in the international
Steeplechase twice on the same
mare, Belle of Bryn Mawr; ana
for such triumphs as the Green
Spring Valley Steeplechase at pm
lico, the Gold Cup at Piping ROCK
and the Chevy Chase Steeplechase
at Laurel. His last winning mount
in the United States was Flying
Scout when he rode for the late
James Temple GWathmey.
