THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, APRIL 9, 1937. oonidl) SATURDAY SPECIALS-AT THE HUB! IDDLEBURG is & very busy M place this week. If you stand on the corner of the main street for a few minutes you | will see most of .he important ama- teur jockeys in the country walking down the short side street to Dan Sands’ office to look over the entry list of the races to be run tomorrow out at Glenwood course. Louie Stod- dard of New York, who has just ar- rived to stay at his farm near here and ride several horses in the races, is received enthusiastically by the home boys. I see gathering around his car Jack Skinner, Randy Duffey, Mike Kerr, Henry Frost and Bobby Young. Jim Ryan rushes by.

North S SR Fletcher of Warrenton comes in to look over the names of all the horses— as does Taylor Hardin. I see standing across the street Louie Leith, Turner Wiltshire and Crompton Smith, looking the jockeys over. They could tell these youngsters a thing or two about riding, but they Jjust stand there and look wise Jack Skinner is very composed. He won the Middleburg Cup last year ‘with The Prophet, and will ride Wel- bourne Jake, owned by Paul Mellon, tomorrow. Jack feels that he should ‘win his home cup, and I hope he does. Middleburg is an exciting place today | and will be much more so tomorrow, as people are coming in all the time | and every available place to stay has been taken. The first race, to be called at 2 pm., is the Sunnybank of 11, miles | on the flat, which has 17 entries. | Next is the Middleburg Cup of 4 miles over timber, with 7 entries, and the | third race is the William Skinner Memorial of 2!z miles over brush, with 7 entries. | The fourth test is the Rose Hill, about 3 miles over the timber course, in which 6 horses have been entered, and the fifth will be the Loudoun | Plate of 2 miles over brush, for which 12 have been nominated. The Three Osaks, 1 mile on the turf, has 18 en- tries, the largest group on the day’s program.

Announcement of approval of a $169,000 Oxon Run sewer project by the House District Committee was made. The organization expressed | satisfaction since the appropriation was more than twice the sum re- quested. ENVOY TO MADRID T ; . e e ENJOYS U. S. PEACE] B=IPc.
