DECIDEDLY IS LATE SCRATCH
KeIso Breezes to Victory
In Dull Cap at GuIfstream

was the return Of Round Ia
BILE in 1858. At one time the
early odds on the board were
1-9.
Sensitive, owned by Mr.. and
Mrs. r. F. Bensinger, finished
gamely to pay $3.50 and $3.50.
Nine lengths back Of him came
Jay Fox, winner Of the race
via disqualifications in 1862.
Jay Fox paid $2.40. In order,
the others were Sunrise Flight,
Flying Johnnie and Rough
Note.
Time Unimpressive
In q sense 1t was q race Of
two divisions-Kelso's and the
division containing the others.
An oddly is that only the last
horse, Rough Note, failed TO
win any money. Sensitive
earned $4,000. Jay Fox $10.-
900. Sunrise Flight $1,000 and
the Florida-bred Flying john
ME 5000.
Kelso's time was an ordinary
2:03H, as against the track
record for the mile and q quar-
ter Of 1:594s, jointly held by
Coaltown (1949) and Round
Table (1s5S). The fractional
times were :24H, 4s7s. 1:12H.
1878 for the mile and 2:03H,
but Kelso didn't have to extend
himself.
He lost probably his most
serious threat when Trainer
Horatio Luro, who had shipped
Decidedly from California for
the race, scratched the gray
colt because "he was off his
feed this morning, didn't look
right, and was not ready To
race" Previous scratches In

WARRENTON, Mar. 10. -
Kingdom Gould, jr., and his 10
year-old brown gelding became
the outstanding stars Of the
Virginia point-to-point circuit
for the third year In q row here
today as they drove to a mar
row victory in the Wa1Tenton
Hunt Cup.
Changing his tactics from his
usual waiting game, Gould
pushed Hurdy Gurdy to the
front in the first mile Of the
2ha-mile timber course laid out
over Edward Stephenson's Kill
maurs.
Blinded by driving rain and
sloshing through heavy turf,
Hurdy Gurdy was kept in range
Of his arch rival Pearmunn,
owned and ridden by Archibald
Kingsley. AS they swung around
towards the finish flag. Joseph
Pumilia on Fondness rolled up
from the back ranks and caught
the leaders, slipping into sec
ond place as they crossed the
line.
Miss Beach Wins
The time Of 3:43.1 was a min
ute and 10 seconds faster than
the only other race run at the
same distance and over the
same course. That was the
Frederick H. Prince, jr., Me-
mortal for ladies. Virginia
Beach. on her fathers Mycroft,
took this one by a neck over
Julie Triebel on Uncle Monk,
owned by Randolph Rouse.
The afternoon spate of ding
dong finishes was fattened by
Douglas Worall on Scandanus
and Willie Moore on Phalene,
who came down to the wire as
a team in the Leeds Manor
open race. Mrs. Aubrey Young,
on Fireball, and Robert Green,
on Bobbysocks, also managed a
nose-to-nose duel in the mile
and-a-half flat race which
ended the program.

no Beau Purple nor much Of

A smallish crowd Of 2l,243,
its enthusiasm dimmed by at

Kelso WIN by 3A lengths over
Sensitive. Decidedly had been
scratched at $3.50 o'clock to the
disappointed groans Of tn e
spectators.
Tops Citations Earnings
Carrying 100 pounds, includ-
ing Jockey Ismael Valenzuela,
Kelso spotted his opponents
anywhere from Is to q pounds
He raced under q tight hold
until the final eighth Of a mile,
when Velenzuela put away SEN
sitivo as he had done Jay Fox
earlier.
The victory by the son Of
Your Host-Maid Of Honor was
worth a net Of $70.500 and
boosted his career earnings to
$l.l47.430. This moved him
ahead Of Citation among the
all-time money winners and
left him behind only Round
Table, Nashua and Garry Back
Kelso returned only $2.40,
$3.50 and $40 as he went off
at LIS. This matched the short

expansion of this market al
though our total pounds export
ed has remained nearly con
slant. However, statistics for
1862 flue-cured exports show an
absolute loss OF nearly 26 mil
hon pounds to all markets. Much
OF this loss has been in the
European market and indica-
tons are for furthe export
losses to this market in 1868.
In commenting on livestock
Dr.. McMurtry stated that nearly
50 million in Virginia livestock
and livestock products were ex-
ported to the Common Market
in 1861. Meat consumption will
continue to increase in the FEC
countries as incomes rise. These
countries are self sufficient in
pork and dairy products: how
ever, 1t will be some time be-
fore enough beef and poultry
will be produced to satisfy the
demands of the people. DR.. Nc
Murtry also pointed cut that
there is a selective market for
improved breeding stock, es-
pecially beef cattle.
Italy Fruit Exporter
Approximately II per cent of
Virginia apples went into the
export trade in 1861. This meant
total of nearly 49l 900 bushels
shipped to Western Europe. italy
intends to capture all of the
European apple market which
currently accounts for three
fourths of the world trade in
fresh apples. Nearly 40 per cent
OF trees in Italy are nonbearing
young paintings with much of
this potential production being in
red and golden delicious varie-
ties. Virginia apple producers
will be facing keen competition
IN the export market and the re-
tention of our fair share will be
possible only by maintaining
quality, a competitive price, and
good merchandising practices.
France is making it quite
clear that it wants Common
Market agriculture walled off
from outside competition. The
rejection of Unit e d Kingdom
membership forces a new look
at trade opportunities in other
non-Common Market countries.
