B—2 x HEARING ONILK HIKEIN PROSPET Effort Will Be Made to De- termine Validity of Pro- ducers’ Request. An acrimonious public hearing wu“ n prospect today to determine the validity of the milk producers’ request | for a 4-cent-a.gallon increase in the | price paid them by Washington miik | distributors. After iearning informally from three of the city's leading dairies that the producer-increase would undoubtedly raise the consumer quart cost by 1 cent, the Consumers’ Council arranged for a conference with Community Chest representatives on taking steps to save the 8-cent milk supplied child welfaie and health agencies. Representatives of the organizations THE EVENING In the Hunt Country Activities Among the Horse-Lovers of Virginia and Maryland. STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23. 1936. Bl e e —— Mountsville, at 5:45, they had a small fleld and a short run that was very much enjoyed. Those out besides the joint masters—Miss Char- lotte Noland and D. C. S8ands—were Mrs. Amory Perkins, Mrs. Charles Sabin, Miss Nannie Fred, Miss Eleanor Mackubin, James B. Skinner and Willlam Hulburt. Another day Middleburg met at New Ford, at 5:45 am. drew down through Arthur White's woods, crossed Cromwells Run to the Mackenzie Tabb farm, started a fox there and carried over several good galloping flelds. The fox then turned, came back and “ran in” opposite the cliff at Lovers Leap. The huntsman Bob Maddux then took hounds down the creek to Mills- ville, créssed and drew the Tabb place again. They started two foxes that ran in a corn field, where the corn had not been cut. The hounds ran around here while the field looked on, they viewed the fox as he ran across to another corn field where corn was being cut. Here hounds were called off and taken across onto Oliver Iselin's, where they started another fox and had s run. They went on to Walter Goodwins, and got up several foxes which gave them short runs. Altogether that day they got up eight foxes, so, in spite of the heat and dry ground, it is evident that there are lots of foxes and the puppies are shaping up nicely for the season, which opens Novem- ber 1. *x % On Tuesday, Middleburg Hounds met at the Covert, Miss Noland's house, at 5:45 a.m., drew Foxcroft, started two foxes and ran one of them all the way to Pole Cat Hill. After staying out several hours, the fleld wes invited back to the Covert by Miss Noland to a deligious breakfast, which was served on the terrace. The hungry crowd did full justice to fruit juices, sausages, fried apples, scrambled eggs and bacon, broiled tomatoes, hot coffee and corn cakes. There were a good many younger members of the hunt out that day who especially enjoyed this feast. Among those hunting were Mr. and | Mrs. William Langley, who had flown down to hunt from New York; Mr. and Mrs. William Hulburt, Cathrine Hulburt, Billy Hulburt and Elizabeth Hulburt, the youngest member of the hunt, who was riding the old gray pony, Archie, Mrs. Oliver Iselin was out with her two daughters, Misses Nancy and Barbara Iselin; Mrs. Amory Perkins and her son, C. E. Perkins, jr.; Miss Nannie Pred, Miss Eleanor Mackubin, Miss Kitty Smith, Mrs. Charles Sabin, Jim Skinner, Robert Young, Barry Hall, Gordcn Grayson and Mike Kerr. ' % * ¥ Mr. Graham Dougherty had a seri- ous accident last week while cubbing with the Blue Ridge Hunt, when his horse stepped in a hole as he was galloping across a -fleld. He was thrown on his shoulder, which was shattered, pieces of bone had to be taken out when he reached the hos- pital. Mr. Dougherty is a prime mover in the hunting circles and his many friends are distressed over the accident. He will be able to return home soon, but will not be able to take part in hunting this season.
