NEWS FROM DOGDOM
Notes on Variety of Subjects of Interest
In Washington and Vicinity
By X. r. Taynfon.

or professor. The only real draw
back is that being in the Army these
days leaves but little time for train
ing or breeding German shepherds.
But, perhaps, with the Army clamor-
ing for trained war dogs, there is
some chance Of rectifying that, too.
The judges list for the Arlington
County Kennel Clubs show on July
4 at the Ballston Baseball Park has
been approved by the American
Kennel" Club. Rudy Engle is judg.
ing best in show, best American
bred and best local dog. DR.. Charles
McAnulty is doing many of the
breeds, with Dorsey Tyson doing
most of the sporting dogs and the
group. Gwladys Groskin is judging
English and Irish settlers and the
top group. Carroll Stewart is judg-
ing all hounds except dachshunds.
Mrs. Merral MacNeille is doing
Norwich, Skye, Scottish terriers and
Schnauzers. Harriet Engle judges
collies and st. Bernards and Leo
Murphy will handle the children'S
handling classes. There will be no
obedience test classes. Entry fee for
dogs will be So and admission charge
will be only so cents. The pre-sale
of tickets is being handled by the
Virginia Boy and Girls Scouts, who
will get a large percentage of the
ticket income.
The National Capital Kennel Club
show on July S is designed to par
ticularly interest the novice, local
fancier. The best of the trophies
are barred from competition in the
local classes.
My Own Brucie, the sensational
cocker spaniel, which won more
and larger shows and more money
than any dog of his time, was re-
Gently sold by the estate of Herman
Mellenthin to Peter Dunno Garvan
of Roslyn, Long Island, for $1,000.
This price was ascertained from the
tax records.
Harry Lustine Is Growing over a
litter of eight puppies sired by
Brucie and whelped about three
weeks ago. There are five blacks,
two buffs and a silver in the litter.
In addition, he has a large litter
of blacks just whelped by daughter
of Brucie by his own Top Hat. It
looks as if the cocker competition is
going to be hot around here few
months from now.
There will be Capital City
Cocker Club sanction match on Aug
ust 16 at Sne of the downtown park
ing lots Futher details later, but
the members promise even more or
better trophies than in the past and
this organization has an enviable
reputation in that line.
When Belinda, the Beautiful
Model, departed this life, home was
no longer home to Oh. Basfords
Playboy-both bulldogs-so DR.. John
Elvin, their owner had to take steps.
He got in touch with Turk McBee,
grand snapper of the bulldog frater-
nifty, and the Playboy went south
while Fletcher's Lady Pat, daugh-
ter of Oh. Dour Dimboola, came to
! Washington to take her place.

in Government circles if nowhere

Dog show entries over the coun-
try are down, but not much. The
new show, with an enthusiastic
bench committee, at Doylestown,
Pa, pulled an entry of almost 500
dogs. Gate" Is down at most shows.
That Is to be expected and not too
much bewailed. Kennel clubs that
stage shows for profit to themselves
as well as the interest and amuse-
ment OF its membership will have
to content themselves with the in
terest and amusement. Kennel clubs
that continue to stage shows for
the benefit Of some worthy cause,
particularly when that cause is one
In the public eye, will find that each
show will be instrumental in net
ting nice profit for that charity.
Interested spectators who may hesi-
tate to spend the so cents or dollar
just to look at lot of dogs won't
think twice about it when a substan-
tial part of that SO cents or dollar
goes to a good cause.
A good cause now being embraced
by many dog fanciers and their as
sociations is Dogs for Defense, Inc.
This is project of particular in
terest to the dog breeder and of
particular value to the country.
Moreover 1t is job that can be done
only by the dog fancy. Dogs for
Defense, Inc, is primarily a clear
ing house interested in raising dogs,
dog handlers, boarding kennels and
dog trainers and combining the va
rious elements into working units
which will turn out perfectly trained
sentry dogs for the Army. All the
dogs and services are donated. The
only thing that is paid for in cash
when absolutely necessary is the
boarding of the dogs while they are
in training. To pay these necessary
bills Dogs for Defense must raise
cash as well as the other items
enumerated. Dog shows from Maine
to California and back are earmark-
ing all or part of their income to
Dogs for Defense. Some clubs are
setting aside part of their member
ship dues for this activity.
Two collies from nearby Virginia
are among the first from this region
to be offered to Dogs for Defense.
They are being donated by Mr.. and
Mrs. Albert Ellis and Mr. and Mrs.
Mark Taynton, both from Falls
Church. 1t is likely that they will
both be trained by Mr.. and Mrs.
Harvey Brown of Mount Rainier.
More dogs and more trainers are
urgently needed. Mr. and Mrs.
Brown are working in the Maryland
District of Columbia region. The
Virginia region, too, needs amateur
volunteer trainers. Three grey
hounds, a foxhound, boxer and a
setter have been approved for train
ing by Miss Julia Shearer, regional
director of Virginia and States
South. Anybody experienced in
training dogs for field, bench or
obedience classes who would care
to undertake one of these is invited
to write me, care of The Star, or

At the recent annual meeting and
election of officers of the Women's S

Stanley H. Beasley and Mrs Marian
H. Barre were elected first and sec

succeeding Mrs. Jack Bennett and
Mrs. Russell Belt; Mrs. Charles w.

urged to attend.
Today in Baltimore the final ses-
sions of the Maryland masters
tournament are being played with
Al Sobel directing. For the past
three years Oscar Brotman and
Alvin Roth, local boys who made
good, were winners-a record un-
equaled in master tournaments.
Brotman has now Joined the Army
and Roth will attempt a super
duper paramountcy-to wit and viz,
a fourth win, with another partner.
1t is rumored that Oscar may be
able to get a few hours leave some
time today and sit in for a few
boards-the c. o. and the ACBL,
jointly, being in kindly disposed
state of mind. Whether or not he
plays, "Cluck" will, find an enthusi-
astic welcome awaiting him.
The next master point tourna-
ment on the calendar is the ever
popular Annapolis event, which will
be played July 3, 4 and S, inclusive,
at Carvel Hall. William Cheeks, its
impressario, has been looking up all
players whose tires are in good
shape and who have sufficient gaso-
line for the trip, advising them Of
the "share-a-car" movement. There
fore, if the lack of transportation
is the raison detre Of your decision
to stay at home over the 4th call
Mr.. Cheeks at Dupont 2122 and he
will probably be able to get you
lift. And for the benefit of the
girls who play in the women's game
and would like to play in the mixed
a very select aggregation of Minute
Men" will be on hand to partner
you should you want one. Again it
is suggested that you call Mr..
Cheeks early and avoid the rush.

All But One
County Incumbent
Is Reelected
Powell beats Serier as
county attorney; Evans
and Hartman win

The county election board could
well have overlooked the legal tech
nIcality which caused so much
trouble just prior TO election relat-
ing to leaving the names OF the re-
publican candidates off the ballots,
for it didn't get 'em anything any
way. All OF the county officers up
for reelection, save K. e. Serier as
prosecuting attorney, were re-elect-
ed. Q. l.. Powell, one OF the candi-
dates whose name was declared
technically entered incorrectly, had
had enough ballots with his name
written in In the primary to have
justified his name on the ballot
without any legal action, carried the
election.
For the other county offices, that
of clerk made the best showing.
Eta Hillman, incumbent clerk, had
no opposition and so got big tally
in every precinct.
c. w. Messy present county treas
urer, who was opposed by the repub-
lican selected Jennie Chellis, won
the election by about 400 votes, in
spite Of the advertising received over
the name omission. ...
Harry Cochran, present Kenne-
wick deputy sheriff, democratic
nominee, won over James Shepherd
Of Prosser by about 800 votes. Shep-
herd Is a former sheriff and is well
known over the county from that
experience. So. a ~
The closest Of the county races
was that between Assessor Ben
Knox and Harry Forsyth, republican
nominee, formerly county treasurer.
Only 100 votes separated these two
candidates, with the former win
ming the toss.
Harley Chapman, present county
auditor, had no opposition in the
primaries. However, Olaf Strand
void, OF Prosser, former superin-
tendent of schools, was nominated
by the republican convention. His
name was one Of the ones left Off
the first ballots and over which the
legal scrap was instituted. The hear
ing by the way, will he held before
the supreme court of the state on
November -. Chapman carried the
