topped by Oh. Try Cobbs Favoritt
Girl. This black cocker, owned by
Mrs. Kenneth Cobb of New Yorh
City and handled by her husband
has gone to best in show. all breeds
five times. On this occasion, she
had strong competition in the group
where she beat the many times win
ner, Oh. Eldgyth Apollo, springer
spaniel, and the equally we'll known
English setter, Oh. Lem of Blue Bar
In the group of six flnalists she had
to take the honors from the out
standing Kerry Blue terrier, Oh
Sirarno's Impertinent Lady. A gen.
eral ringside favorite was the Ger
man shepherd Oh. NoX of Dorm
wald, owned by Dornwald Kennels
of New York City winner of the
working group. The winner of the
hound group was Bencelia Hansi. a
dachshund owned and bred by Ben
Klirnkiewicz of Arlington The toy
group winner was the Pomeranian
Oh. Dromore Diamond King, owned
by George Shepperd of Cedar Grove,
Nj, and transporting group winner
was Mrs. Sherman Hoyt's standard,
white, poodle, Oh. Blakeen Luzon,
the only import in the final roundup.
Dachshund's Victory Remarkable.
KlimkiewiCz' dachshund was the
only local group winner Her feat
was all the more remarkable in that
she came from the open class to win
best of breed and then was placed in
the group over dogs that had both
group and best in show wins to their
credit. However, Hansi was not the
only local dog to win group honors
w. A. McIlwaines chow, Oh. Lao
Tang of Chung Kuo was placed
second in the transporting group,
and Capt. and Mrs. Bob Adamsons
Doberman Pinscher, Dictator Won
Glenhugel, also went from the open
class to best of breed and second in
the group. R. w. Lyons bulldog,
Oh. Basford British Mascot, was
another dog that placed in the
group.
There we're many Washington
owned ribbon winners, but not so
many that won championship points.
In addition to the best of breed
winners mentioned, there was the
English setter, Jody of Blue Gorse,
owned by Kenneth Joy, which went
to winners bitch for the third time
this week. Since competition in
English settlers has been very high,
this should put her near the title.
Another dog that should be ap-
preaching the championship is Mrs.
Betty Places chow, Wong Flu of
Waltonby, winners dog at Rock
Greek.
Enrol Winning Boxer.
In boxers, the winners dog was
q new puppy, Southdown's Errel,
which climbed from the special
puppy class to winners dog, over
several near-champions He is
owned by Keith Merrill and was
handled by Gordon Barton. Claire
Sperling had both the winners dog
and winners bitch in great Danes
in her Ridgelands Baron and Gerta
Viktoria. Mrs. Jere Mackle's cairn
terrier, Gabrielle of Macwae, was
also winner. In Irish terriers, Fred
Sherry's Irish Spokesman was placed

going to Mrs. Martha Halls Ahtram
Seaford.
The winner of the first prize for
best obedience dog was Peggy Coyles
cocker spaniel, Inkabod, which was
shown to first in the open class.
Mary Edith Gregory's toy poodle,
Peter Piper, and Suzanne Walsh's
