GRAY frost-brown stubble ? and
the green of the pines?but even
better looking the black and white or
the brown and white of a pointer or
setter freezing into action on the
covey point ? the only competi
tor who reaches top competitive
form as immovable as marble. Quail
hunting with a good dog may not
be the king of sports, but a good
many millions twnn
so and their day
isn't far ahead. And
the dog is really
the king of this
autumn and winter
thrill.
This occurred to
as when we ran
into Andy Sage, the
Long bland sports
man, who owns and
develops more
champion field trial
AM.
Grant land Rice ,
<??!? uuub anyone
we ean recall off hand. His dogs
have won (he national championship
six times, four of them in a row
against the former record of two
in a row.
They have also won the big fu
turity seven times in a row and
they will be Just as hard to beat in
the coming tests on ahead.
"My best dog," Mr. Sage said, "is
Ariel, winner of six championships.
Ariel is now seven years old but can
still range with the best. There are
three fundamental qualities that
make a great bird dog?scent, speed
and stamina. In field trial tests there
is also the matter of ranging class
or form to be considered. In my
opinion It is harder to breed and
develop a champion dog than it is a
champion horse. There are many
good bird dogs, of course, but few
great ones that can win champion
ships against the best. Ariel is my
pick but Luminary isn't far behind."
Field Trial Thrills
Clyde Morton trains the Sage en
tries in a secluded hamlet known
as Alberta, Ala., which isn't far
away from Selma. These champion
ship field trials range all the way
from Saskatchewan and Duluth to
East Tennessee and while there are
no mutuel windows, no football or
baseball cheering, they have Just as
great a thrill for those who love the
hunting dog and who travel far dis
tances to see the best at work. The
judges in these championship tests
give their time, attention and devo
tion to their work without any pay
and they contribute a big part to any
field trial's success.
The thousands of ex-servicemen
and millions of others now in the
woods and fields enjoy a doable thrill.
The first is the work of the dogs,
without u; question the most eager
form of life In pursuit of the quarry.
The next thrill comes st the
covey's rise when the teme silence
is suddenly broken by the whirr of
many wings?an easy looking target
"but an elusive one except for the ex
perts. The first average tendency is
to shoot too quickly and also to blase
away at the covey in place of select
ing a single or double target.
One of your correspondent's great
est shocks is to fire and see no
feathers fall where so many feathers
seemed to be at a close and unmiss
able range.
When you take up the major thrills
of sport, the football player can offer
a long run through a broken field
or a long completed pass. The golfer
has his long iron dead to the pin.
The baseball player can counter
with the home run or the triple. The
horse player will take his chance on
hitting a SO to 1 shot on the nose?
or winning a husky daily double.
The Elusive Turkey
You can hear the clamor of the
10 million fishermen, moving from
trout to bass to salmon to tarpon.
But the nearest thrill to the dogs
working and the covey rise is to
see a wild turkey light in a tall pine
close to your hide-out?and then try
to spot him later only 20 yards away,
as all 20 pounds of him suddenly
vanish and yet you know he is there.
Here is the greatest of all camou
flage artists. The incomparable will
o' the wisp.
Yes, even with a few occasional
diamondbacks thrown in, I'll take
turkey hunting and give you the
memory of a 40-foot putt with the
match all squared on the 18th green.
No wonder Andy Sage would rather
have Ariel than another Man o' War.
Or would he?
Field trials now cover a big part
of the country. For example, Duluth
has become a leading center in this
respect where next spring Duluth
sportsmen expect to hold one of the
leading trials of the season. The East
also has its trials and its share of
good dogs.
For here is sport in the final mean
ing of the word.

Beau Jack Warms Up
On the way to another football
gathering we got offside and bumped
into Bowman Milligan and Chick
Wergeles, who are handling the
pugilistic destinies of the returning
Beau Jack.
"We have sent Beau Jack back to
Augusta to ready for his next fight,"
Chick Wergeles said. "He weighs 144
pounds now and will soon be down
to 140. Beau Jack is to meet the
1 winner of the Janiro-Greco fight lata |
in December.
