HonOrs Taken

BY ANNE CHRISTMAS


Nutcracker, a miniature
jumping machine who has given
two older Zimmerman brothers
their early show ring schooling
today is well on the way with
a third young Zimmerman
after winning the Potomac
Junior Horse Shows Tommy
Tucker Challenge Trophy yes
terday at Potomac. Md.
Eight-year-old Donnie Zim-
norman is the family's latest
show star aboard Nutcracker
and he had the mount on the
little gray in yesterdays show,
but his older brother Jimmie
had to take over in the latter
stages because Donnie took a
tumble outside the ring. Still
another member Of the Laurel,
Md. contingent, 6-year-old
Ira. remains to take Nutcracker
a-showing when Donnie out
grows him.
Trinket Gets Title
1t was the second consecu-
tive victory in as many years
for Nutcracker in Potomac's
small pony division. and gave
him another years possession
of a porcelain likeness of a
pony. donated by Mr.. and Mrs,
Stewart Upton in memory OF
their children's late-lamented
mount. Tommy Tucker.
The large pony championship
went to Robin Hughes Trinket
who earned the title for the
second straight year. Reserve

Gardner.
The Zimmerman family
carried home still another tro-
ply when Richard won the
junior crown with his chestnut
Jallamar. over Saigon. owned
and ridden by Kate Evans.
Large Entry List
Entries turned out in such
force that even the most horse
wise observers could not recall
a junior show with such i'm
pressive lists Of entries. Morn
ing track classes averaged IS
ponies or horses. with the en-
phasis on Workmanship.
The unusually heavy entries
made the show continue long
past twilight, resulting in a
coin toss for the finals awards
IN the days most difficult jump
ing class, the knockdown-and-
out. The blue finally went to
Cathy Dowd with Sunny. who
won the flip over Norma Ger
stenfeld's Ugly Duckling as
darkness fell.
