Dogs Have Their Day
As Fredericksburg
ReviyeS Old Mart
indians Smoke Peace Pipe,
But Show Replaces
Trading Of Eorly Days
BY CHRIS 4. MATHISEN,
Star Staff Correspondent.


FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Sept
2s-The dogs took over the stadium
OF James Monroe High School here
today. They came in style for the
annual renewal of Fredericksburg S
dog mart, the festive revival of what
was once a strictly business gather
ing.
Hundreds of CANNES of all familiar
and several unfamiliar breeds tugged
at their leashes as their owners
wandered about the show grounds.
The church ladies did a brisk busi-
ness in sandwiches and soft drinks,
and the public address system blared
forth with the judges calls for
various classes.
Judging began at $50 am. and
continued until noon. Then Mayor
W. Marshall King sat down to a
peace pow-wow with Indians from
the Pamunkey reservation in King
William County.
The last remaining representa-
tives of what was once a powerful
unit in Powhatan's confederation re-
enacted the truce ceremony which
was a frequent event in days of
long ago.
Smokes Peace Pipe.
The Fredericksburg Chamber of
Commerce, sponsors of the mart,
said that the smoking of a peace
pipe lent authentic color to the
occasion since it was during the
truces of Colonial days that the dog
mart f1ourished. Then the Indians
came with furs and gold nuggets to
barter for the hunting dogs OF the
white men.
Today. however, few of the dogs
IN the show came to the grounds
AS merchandise, although an auc-
aion was scheduled for this after
noon. The majority were treasured
pets arriving in automobiles, sta
ton wagons and specially built ken
mel trucks.
An elevated pen near the show
ring held a pair of Rhodesian lion
hounds, exhibited by Taylor P.
Rowe, Richmond veterinarian. 1t
was said only five examples of this
breed now are in the United States.
Whippets, seeing-eye dogs and a
pack of IA foxhounds were among
the bench-show entries receiving
extensive attention from the spec
tators, numbering several thousand.
Pamunkey Business.
The Indians did not attempt to
haggle for dogs, but they were able
to dispose of many handicraft items
for cash. Women of the tribe,
wearing traditional regalia but
sporting up-to- -the-minute facial
makeup and hair-does, passed
across the tables dozens of tiny
drums, pipes and woven pieces.
After the midday ceremonial
parade of dogs and their handlers
moved through the city to the sta
dunn. The afternoon program was
to include an exhibition of dog
tricks, a fox horn blowing contest,
an old-time flddlers' contest and
climax of the day-the dog auction.
An auctioneer dressed in top hat
was to preside. Edwin A. Gibson
was general chairman for the day.

Many New Candidates Expected
To Enter Race For Councilman

With the deadline for qualify
ing for the city election, October
%, drawing near, it is expected
at least seven new candidates will
enter the race for city council be-
fore the time expires.
While there is no one who will
dispute the fact that the next
mayor viii be a Albury, the
point in question seems to be
whether it will be Paul G.. or
Willard M. Both are making an
intensive campaign and both
camps are confident of victory.
No new candidates are expected
in this field.
In the race for police justice
only Wesley P. Archer, the in
cumbent, and T. S. Caro-. his
predecessor, have thus far an
nounced in The Citizen. Several
other candidates have qualified
but have not yet announced to the
public
AS usual great interest centerS

sions on those who have already
announced as candidates for
election.
Only purpose for the meeting.
1t was brought out, was to pro
vide larger number of candi-
dates for city council so as TO
give the voter wider selection
In the hope that the result would
bring a council able TO cope with
the problems bound to come up
during the next administration.
After hearing various sugges-
tons as to the method Of select
ing possible candidates, the
chairman appointed a committee
/ of one representative from each
group attending to study the sit
uation and secure candidates
from those nominated at last
nights meeting.
The meeting was marked with
much interest and enthusiasm
and scores of valuable suggeS-
tions were made. Similar meet
ings are planned for future cleo
tons.

Business, Professional AAnd
Civic Groups Urge Right Men
Be Elected To City Offices

In an effort to create greater
interest in the coming city cleo
ton, working towards maintain
ing an effective good city gov
eminent, business and profess
sional men and representatives
from practically all of the city's
leading civic organizations met
last evening in the county court
house.
The group selected as its chair
man for last nights get-together,
Everett Russell, president of the
Chamber of Commerce.
MIR. Russell reminded those
present that Key West is now
experiencing its greatest era of
prosperity and now necessary it
is that the right men be elected
to office this year.
1t was clearly brought out
that no POLITICAL organization
would be formed as result of
this gathering, those present had
no intention of backing any slate
or ticket and wished no aSper-

police and true to custom there
are more candidates out for this
office than any other outside of
the council race. The Citizens
political column shows Alberto
Camera will seek reelection,
opposed by Ray Atwell, Hector
Castro and Robert ]. Lewis.
Greatest interest lies in the
council race, where many changes
viii be made. OF the present
council, only John CarboneIl.
Glenwood Sweeting and Leonard
B. Grillon have announced that
they will seek reelection. Glanc-
ing down the announcement col
umn, the new candidates shown
are Raul Riley Carbonell, iona
than Gates, Myrtland Gates, VIII
liam Freeman Dominguez and
Eugene Coffee Sanchez.
As predicted. this column is
expected to add new candidates
to its list daily and all dark
horses must enter before We'd
nesday.

OTHERS SEEKING
HIDDEN TREASURE

Like the mothers ''hang your
clothes. on a hickory limb. but
don't go near the water" Police
Chief Ivan Elwood said today he
doesn't mind if the Miami Gaud-
reaus look for treasure here, pro-
vided they don't dig any holes in
the Botanical Gardens.
The Gaudreaus, Eugene L. and
Eugene j.. think there is a buried
treasure in the gardens, and if city
council doesn't want cut lit
DOESN'T they have limited they'll
just dig up the loot and get down
to spending those doubloons
alone.
Not ones to keep a good thing to
themselves, the Gaudreaus, E. L.
and E j., too, offered in a letter
to cut the city in if they were
given permission to dig. But they
ended their letter or do you
prefer us to take action in our own
manner"
Council voted "no action" so if
the shovels start elanking in the
night, it might be the Gaudreaus,
E. L. and E j., settling accounts in
their own manner.

MANY DREAM OF DESERT GOLD
BUT FEW FIND EVEN NUGGET
By SAN JACKSON. az Fes.ure ssEvies wriisr

NEEDLES, Calf. Oct. 10
The beauty of living in one of
these towns on the edge of a vast
and mysterious desert is that
you're always potentially rich
As planes, trains and automo-
biles roar by, carrying rich
folks on their perpetual shuttle
between New York and Holly
wood, you can look at them with
out envy. Any day now, Indian
Joe or Old Smokey may walk in
and announce that the grubstake
you gave him long months ago
has enabled him to find a canyon
lined with gold
Or if you set impatient you
can let your wife run the store
or gas station for a couple of
weeks and go prospecting your
self. There are distant ranges
than few white men have ever
reached, and you reason that if
you can just get into their more
remote canyons with enough
water to bring you back alive
you ought to find something.
Nearly all these desert towns
boast at least one sample of ex-
tremely rich ore called high
grade" or picture rock'), and
there is always a story with it
calculated to raise hopes of
sudden wealth.
Typical ! suppose. is the one
which goes with q certain piece
of white quartz about half as
large as your fist and richly
encrusted with virgin gold. II
is easy 10 believe the claim of
the storekeeper who owns il
that the bullion Is worth so.
"This fellow was from Geor-
gia", related the storekeeper.
Used to buy his grub here every
time he come in from the desert.
Used to stand there just like you
are. l think he'd been sick. That
was the reason he come out here.
well. he kept pickin' around
and pickin' around, just to kin
time, guess. Every once in a
while he'd cash a money order
from home. Nobody knew Just
where he was prospectin'. He'd
picked up an old truck some
where and he used to 60 off in
different directions.
Then he come in about dinner
time one night and asked for one
of them big milk cans there. I
thought he looked little excited.
and sure enough he didn't stay
overnight but drove right off as
II he was headin' in the direction
