wARRENTON, Va. April 90
This traditional horse center is
busting more than usual In an
ticipation of a banner week end.
with a capacity taxing influx of
horses and people expected for
the Warrenton schooling show
Friday and the oath annual re-
newal of the Virginia Gold Cup
Saturday.
The Gold Cup is purely sport
mans race. The winner receives
no purse. his only reward being
the inscription of his name on the
cup and glory for his mount. The
course for the race. rebuilt this
year. is slightly under four miles
and is one Of the. country's finest.
The 81 timber fences are heavy
chestnut rails. nine panels wide
and q uniform 3 feet 10 inches in
height.
The race is for 4-year -olds and
upward. The cup becomes the
property of the owner winning it
three times. not necessarily con-
secutively. The trophy has been
retired three times. the first in
1925 by the late Mrs. K. E. Hit.
the second in 1888 by Sumner
Pingree, and the third in 1910 by
Mrs. Frank Gould. The present
cup has been won twice by Chris
popher M. Greer. Other legs were
established by Mrs. Amory Car
hart in 1912 and Thomas Stokes
In 1947.
The first Gold Cup. which an
nually. attracts notables of the
horse world, fox-hunterS, breeders,
racing fans and intentional
sportsmen. was run in 1922 over a
tagged course at Oakwood, the
Sterling Larabees' estate. In 1924
the course was moved to Broad
view, the present site. where it
remained for five years. In 1929 a
course was tagged on the Clover
croft estate of Baldwin D. Spill

Athletic Trainers Job Filled With Angles

must know his way tnrougn a
maze of machinery. He has a
whirIbath for hydrotherapy, a
short-wave diathermy machine,
he uses electronics for deep and
quick penetration of heat and
such other items as infrared
lamps, electric bakers and steam
and hot-water baths.
Science in Use Of Tape.
There's even a science to the
use of adhesive tape. Wyre. Incl
dentally, is considered one of the
best boys in the business with a
roll of tape. Tape isn't used just
to hold a bandage in place, but
with Wyre it's a method of adding
extra muscles and ligaments. A
trainer also must arrange the diet
of his athletes, be quick to sense
injuries among those athletes who
try to hide them and able to turn
away those athletes who think
they're hurt, but aren't.
Handling of these training
room athletes" calls for good doses
of psychology. A trainer lives on
pretty intimate terms with men
on his teams and before long he'll
find himself acting as father
confessor, financial adviser and
movie expert.
That movie business might
sound a little out of his line. but
it isn't. When on an out-of town
trip one Of the best relaxers is q
movie and it has become the
trainers job to select the movie.
arrange seating and see that
everybody gets to the movie and
also back to the hotel.
All these items are just some
of the things which will be brought
up at the clinic on June 10 and IL.
AS this will be the first trainers
clinic ever held, Wyre expects
about 500 to attend. The clinic
will be open without charge to
any one interested, so high
school coaches, who must do their
own training work, probably will
turn out In force.

Athletes Make Best Horsemen, Col. Cole Finds
Muscular Coordination Tells but Rider Must Be Smarter Than Horse
ey Lewis r. Atchison

Athletes make the best
horsemen." said Col. John T.
Cole In response TO O question.
TO handle a horse well. first
of all. you've got to be smarter
than the horse. I know that
sounds trite. but it's important.
Take Dakota for example.
A pig-eyed devil. but one Of the
best horses I've ever ridden. He
was lazy and a rogue In the
ring. He seemed to like women
with bright hats and he'd clown
around as If he knew he
wouldn't be disciplined In front
Of all those people. He was q
bull and resisted every COM
mand. but he was too smart for
his own good. All pig-eyed
horses are that way.
You need muscular CO.
ordination and you've got to
be relaxed TO be a good rider"
said the colonel. warming to his
subject. 'Reflexes must be good
because you must make a move
in a fraction Of a second once
you know 1t Is necessary and
you can't recall a mistake In
the show ring. Athletes gen.
orally have these requirements.
although at West Point Harry
Wilson couldn't get along with
a horse and you know what q
great football player he was"
Col. Cole looks more like a
football player than horseman
and indeed he was an end on
Army's squad. He also was a
star basket ball player. captain
ing the Cadets In his senior
year. but the colonel's horse
manship has won him world
fame. We dropped in on him
at the Pentagon to have a look
at the collection of trophies won
by the United States equestrian
team in last years Olympic
games at London and the con-
versation. naturally. was pretty
much about horses.
The coloners father was an
expert shot. holding the Army.

Horses were used essentially for
transportation during the elder
Col. Coles career. His son, how
ever. was a riding enthusiast
from the day he borrowed" an

By George Huber

Take a physiologist, psychol-
ogist, a nurse, physical therapist.
an anatomist, a first-aid expert, q
masseur, a dietitian and a father
confessor. Mix we'll. Out comes
o college athletic trainer.
Being college trainer today |
isn't what it used to be. A train
er's Job is to keep the athletes in
shape, and in the old days-not
too long ago at that-it was
thought sufficient if some old ex-
bicycle rider or ex-pugilist did the
lob. He didn't know much. maybe,
and had no formal education
about what makes human body
tick. He could rub hniment on a
sore muscle or apply hot towel
where he thought it would do the
most good. but after that he was
lost.
Tie trainer wasn't a real expert
and he wasn't paid too well. Since,
however, this business of being a
trainer has advanced to where It's
q science-really combination OF
several Sciences-and a good train
er takes home enough money each
week to eat quite regularly and to
dress very well.
A trainer nowadays has to do
about everything. He gets his
charges in shape and keeps them
that way. He runs them through
their calisthentic drills. takes care
of their cuts and bruises, rubs
their sore muscles. coddles them
along when they need it. sees that
they eat proper food. holds their
watches and money when they are
out playing. listens sympathetical-
ly when they tell of troubles with
the girl friend or with the pro-
fessor of advanced chemistry and
otherwise makes himself buffer
between them and the outside
world. 1t is quite a job and 1t
takes quite an expert to handle 1t.
Important Budgets to Handle.
There are several reasons why
q trainer holds one of the most
important athletic posts at COL
lege or university nowadays. One
is that the athletes themselves are
q major investment for a big
school and it is worth while to
give them the best of care. The
training budget for a leading uni
versity now runs from SIC. 600 to
$4,000 a year and you must have
