buked by the District Boxing

Breeding and Pony
Shows Bring Variety
To Saddle Fans
By AnoeIino J. Corobelli

A welcome change from the
usual horse show curricula is IN
store for saddle fans this week
end. The Virginia Horseman's
Association fourth annual show
of breeding stock will be held
Saturday at Warrenton, Va.
starting at II am. edit. On
Sunday. starting at 10 am, the
North End pony and Junior show
will be staged at the North End
Arena, East-West highway, Silver
Spring, Md.
The breeding show will display
a superior quality of racing. hun
ter and pony stock, the result OF
painstaking and careful selectlve
breeding. The production OF
such stock is one of the most i'm
portant phases of the sport and
one of the high lights OF the show
season is the Virginia horsemen' S
exhibition, now a fixture on the
Virginia circuit.
Organized in 1910, the associa-
ton was founded to promote Vlr-
ginia horses. especially thorough
breds for racing. The first show
was held in 1941 at Upperville and
was limited to thoroughbred
yearlings, the object being to give
owners an opportunity to have
their yearlings viewed before
shipping consignments to the
Sarasota sales. The results were
promising and in 1912 a similar
event was staged with good re-
suits. During 1943-l945 the show
was suspended.
In 1946 it was reopened in full
force and the scene shifted to
Warrenton and classes were added
for ponies, draft horses and hunt
ers. Thirty-four classes were
listed and 1872 individual entries
were exhibited. In 1947 the total
was increased to 227. Last year,
with AZ classes for pony, racing,
hunters, draft and walking horses.
277 individuals were entered.
Saturdays show has been
streamlined to include only racing,
hunting and pony stock in its 20
class schedule. Championships
will be pinned in each division.
Nick Saegmuller. who has served
as the organizations field secre-
tary since its inception. is the show
manager. Judges include George
Humphrey, Cleveland, Ohio; Ira
Drymon. Lexington. KY. and Mrs.
Thomas Waller, Bedford Hills,
N. Y.
On Sunday youngsters under 19
will have a full days showing.
Ponies are divided into three size
divisions with five classes listed for
each division. A pony grand
championship will be awarded.
Glasses include events for hacks.
jumpers and hunters. Eight
classes are listed for juniors ana
a jumper and hunter champion
will be pinned in this division. A
trophy and four ribbons will be
awarded in each class. Exhibitors
attention is called to an error in
the printing of the prize list.
Entry fee in all pony classes is
81 instead of So. Additional
information may be had by dialing
