Kennel Club Show
By ChorIes }. Yorbroueh
| A fawn-colored Afghan, with
all the purpose and appearance
of a well-groomed prince seeking
a barber shop, became top dog
at the Armory last night.
1t was strictly a victory for the
long hairs and departure from
little dog show winners when
proud Oh. Tamerlane II, owned by
DR.. William Ivens Of Ardmore, Pa.
was named best-in-s show at the
National Capital Kennel Clubs
cord-breaker.
A trend has often put the lit
tie yippers in the winners circle
-dachshunds, PekeS and toys
whose general measurements are
dog and half long and half
dog high. But last nights was
T a m lanes. Handler Mary
Young of Doylestown, Pa, said
'he was never better" and the
Afghan was at his best under ap-
plause of the crowd which had
thinned down to the faithful by
the 11:10 pm. final decision.
Show Rings Attract Crowds.
In final group judging, he was
i the winner over these:

sporting breeds, Oh. Reigate Dress
Parade. a Dalmatian owned by
Mrs. M. Firuski of Salisbury,

Show rings spread all over the
huge Armory floor were fringed
with the interested spectators
all day, but the booths with the
more than 100 entries proved
the magnets for the casual visi-
tors. The crowd, not including the
owners and handlers, went well
over 1000 during the day-a rec
ord for the Kennel Club.
