In Piping Rock
Show on Long Island
Dedicated to Lees
Greet War Steed

The 40th annual Piping Rock
horse show to be held at Locust VAL
ley, Long Island. tomorrow, Friday
and Saturday of this week is one of
the top shows of the country which
each year draws entries from some
OF the most prominent stables OF
Virginia and Maryland While con-
ditions prevent many exhibitors
from this section showing this year
there still are a few who will take
the long trail to Long Island.
The Piping Rock show offers a
large variety of events providing
suitable and interesting competition
for all breeding classes, children's
events for all ages, working hunter
and open jumper classes, driving
classes and ponies.
Dedicated to Lees Horse.
AS customary the show each year
is dedicated to some great horse of
history. This years holding will be
dedicated to Gen. Robert E. Lees
famous war horse Traveller. Foaled
in 1857, of Gray Eagle stock, Travel
ler was a blue ribbon thoroughbred
reared In Greenbriar County, Va.
now West Virginia.
He was acquired by Gen. Lee in
the autumn of 1861, and because of
his sturdiness, endurance and spirit
ne gradually displaced Gen. Lees
other horses and carried the great
Confederate Commander through
all the campaigns of the Army of
Virginia to the final DAYS at Ap-
pomattox.
Horse and Master Close.
The relationship between Travel
ler and his master were almost per-
sonal In their mutual regard and
understanding. In speaking of him
Gen. Lee once said that many a
war horse more truly is entitled to
immortality than the man who rode
MIN. According to tradition, at the
Generals funeral Traveller lowered
his head to the cof1in and whinnied
His own death came but a few
months later and he was buried near
the tomb of his master on the

Two Days Rest

To Buns
Redbirds, Staggering
To l4-Inning Victory,
Tilt Edge to Two
BY JUDSON BAILEY.
Associated Press Sports Write,

The dogfight in the National
League became a two-ring circus
again today as the Brooklyn Dodgers
took up the chase of the st. Louis
Cardinals after two days of idleness
during which the Redbirds managed
to entrench themselves in first place
by two full games.
The layoff which the schedule
handed the Dodgers at this critical
stage provided at least a temporary
profit for the Cards because it gave
them working margin for their
battle down the stretch. But there
was a possibility that the open dates
might favor Brooklyn in the long
run.
This was because the fiercely
fought series in Philadelphia took
so much out of the Cardinals that
they appeared groggy yesterday even
though they dragged down a 80
victory over the Phils in IA innings
with the veteran ST johnson hurting
all the way for the losers.
cooper mas Tough Day.
Morton Cooper, winner of 20
games, was on the mound for st.
Louis but did not have his customary
wares. His teammates gave him
two-run lead in the third inning
and ordinarily this would have been
enough for the husky Highlander.
However, it wasn't yesterday. Cooper
was behind almost every batter, al
lowed the Phils to tally once in
their half of the third, to tie the
score on Nick Etten's homer in the
eighth, and finally retired under fire
with no one out in the ninth after
he had given up 10 hits.
Murry Dickson took charge and
pitched six scoreless innings after
that. But the Redbirds were so
feeble Dickson himself had to set
OF the winning spark by hitting
double after two were out in the
14th. Jim Brown then brought him
home with single.
The Redbirds obviously were in a
hitting slump as they moved into
Boston to close their Eastern CAM
paign with two games against the
Braves today and tomorrow. They
were <oa1thit In three Of their four
games at Philadelphia and were
moving in low gear even before they
reached Shibe Park.
Moore Likely Out Of Action.
Terry Moore, captain and center
fielder, was suffering from cramps
in his left leg and is unlikely to
play at Boston. Other players
needed rest if the situation weren't
so tense.
The Dodgers now haN had time
to relax before taking on the Pitts
burgh Pirates today and tomorrow
at Ebbets Field. If they are able
to snap out of their five-game losing
streak with a strong front against
the Pirates, then the layoff will have
proved beneficial.
