The old leatherman is an indis- pensable adjunct to the racing re- tinue. In his bridles and saddles he, uses only the finest English cow-‘ hides and pigskins, although Amer- ican leather is cheaper. Long feels that American products cannot com- pare with those of English tan- neries. Most vereran jockeys facing the rider’s bugaboo — weight making— have shown interest in a new Brit-| ish saddle, which fully rigged, weighs only about a pound. Those now used in America weight any-| where from @ pound and a half to| four pounds, unrigged. Two Saddles Per Jockey The new light saddle (about the| same size of an American one) is| made on a tree or frame of a much lighter wood. That's where the aif- | ference comes in. The average apprectice is con- tent with a single. saddle. Most jockeys have two —a long-seated saddle of the type made popular by Tod Sloan, Snapper Garrrison, and other heroes of the past, and a modern flat-seated, past.nge-stm’upk English, of a type that came into| use many years ago. The more affluent top-notch jockey has a dozen or more saddles—which cost from $75 to $100. These are scaled according to weight so that the lead pads will not have to be used in weight variance. Workman Goes Hungry Western riders, such as Charley Stevenson and Basil James, cling to the long-seated type. Eastern- ers, like Eddie Arearo, Sonny Work- man and Silvio Coucci, prefer to do their riding in a flat-seated model.

The Associated Press said he was discharged because his work was not' up to proven ability. Guild Charges The Guild chargéd the Associated Press violated the Wagner Act by discouraging membership in the la- bor organization. The Associated Press contended the legislation violated the freedom of the press and took property without due process of law. Justice Roberts in the prevailing opinion declared that the “actual reason for his (Watson's) discharge as shown by the unattacked find- vity.” He said that whiie the os- tensible grounds of his discharge was on grounds of his work, there was evidence that his agitation for the collective bargaining stat- ute was really the cause and that Watson was guilty of only what the Act “declares permissible.” Justice Sutherland, dissenting, said the minority did not agree on other issues in the case.
