Small fires Of revolution burned

Of Warrenton's Hunter Show OF
America" which opens q three
day session at noon tomorrow.
just recovering from q short
trip to the dog house after it
was bounced out OF both the
American and Virginia Horse
Horse Show Associations, the
meet here was faced with another
hassle over an arbitrary ruling
printed In the prize list.
The rule reads .l1orses must
be led IN the ring by. grooms
only"
One prominent owner--Morton
tCappy) Smith Of Middleburg
and Gotham. Va promptly re-
fused to enter his horses on the
grounds that he employed only
one groom and didn't intend to
act as q stable swipe while the
groom was lolling around the
ring holding a horse by the
bride.
Hardship for Small Stables.
Somebody has to get horses
ready for the next classes
Smith explained to the commit
tee. And ] don't intend to do
the stable work because I'm not
allowed to lead a horse in. Be-
I sides ! object to the ruling on
principle because. it discrim-
mates against small stables
where the owners sometimes
take care of their own horses.
They can't be at two places at
once"
Several other exhibitors took
UP the cudgels and made an in
formal protest to the Executive
Committee which held a brief
huddle, then announced: "The
rule is printed in the prize list
and it stands"
It was this stiff Knocked atti-
tude over an infraction of AHSA
rules which got Warrenton
bounced out of the big leagues
in 1852. The show ran last year
without sanction of the national
or State organizations.
IF a protest is fled during the
next three days at Warrenton, it
probably will be based on the
ground that some of the men
leading horses into the ring are
not actually grooms. but stable
managers or professional riders.
Since a number of owners who
manage their own stables are
rated as professional horsemen-
Cappy Smith for example-the
question may be raised at to why
they also cannot perform this
little chore.
Whatever happens. the COM
mittee has built-in defenses.
