CAROLINA
Coming to the Carolina Theatre
this Friday and Saturday (two
days) is “These Wilder Years,”
starring James Cagney and Bar
bara Stanwyck with Walter Pid-
geon and Don Dubbins.
This is a moving and outstand
ingly played drama of a man’s
search for the son he never knew.
The story is razor sharp with hu
man understanding and the di
rection gives the plot and players
a sensitive touch that’s quality all
the way. It draws the parallel
that the youth of today is very
little different from the youth of
yesteryear in regards to wildness
'Not Work At All'
Jean Safford Big Help To Father
At Bay State Raeeway This Season
Coming Sunday through Wed
nesday, August 12-15, with three
shows Sunday at 3, 7, and 9, and
week flights at 8:15, is the much
heralded production ‘"The Proud
and the Profane,” in VistaVision
and starring William Holden and
Deborah Kerr, with Thelma Rit
ter, Dewey Martin and William
Redfield in support.
In “The Proud and the "Pro
fane,” the proved and prolific
partnership of Perlberg and Sea
ton has brought forth another
polished and well rounded candi
date for awards in the pattern of
their recent string which inclu
ded “Little Boy Lost,” “Country
Girl” and “Bridges at Toko-Ri.”
A deeply penetrating, incisive
and perceptive love story, told
with taste, delicacy, good humor
and sympathy, it is a candidate
on a number of grounds—for sen
sitivity of direction by George
Seaton who also contrived the
carefully balanced screen play
for excellence of performance by
the principals; and for perform
ance by a supporting player,
Thelma Ritter, which is short of
dominating the picture only by
the tiniest of margins.

It is the air of purity and the

Franklin Safford, who lives
with his family on Midland Road
and maintains one of the best
stables in the South, has been
considered for many years one of
the top harness racing experts in
the country.
This summer he and his daugh
ter, Jean, have seen their horses
win consistently at the Bay State
Raceway in Foxboro, Mass.
Recently the Bay State Sulky
News, published monthly during
the season at the raceway, carried
a feature story on Miss Safford,^
Pilot readers will be interested
in learning the daily routine of
a young lady who has an interest
ing hobby-job.
The article is reprinted in full:
Successful father-son combina
tions have been fairly common in
harness racing, but a father-
daughter combination has been
doing very well at Bay State
Raceway this year.
Meet lovely 19-year-old Jean
Safford, who takes great pride in
her contribution to the successes
of the Frank Safford stable of
Pinehurst.
It’s no minor contribution,
either, because Jean is actually
a second trainer fori her veteran
dad, and performs all the training
functions except driving.
All this has come about in the
last couple of years. Although she
has been around horses all her
life, it wasn’t until two years ago
that Jean exhibited any great in-'
terest in trotters and pacers.
Prior to that she had concentra
ted her attentions on show horses,
hunters and jumpers.
‘It’s hard to explain now,” said
Jean, “but I actually didn’t have
too much interest in harness rac
ing until Dad handed me the
reins one night and asked me to
exercise a horse. I’ve been at it,
more or less, ever since.”
Jean was born in her dad’s
home town of Keene, N. H., but
has lived in Pinehurst for the last
ten years of her life. Even though
she just graduated from' Southern
Pines High School last June, she
has often been entrusted with the
complete training of some of his
horses when he had to be absent
elsewhere.
How does a 19-year-old young
lady like the rough and read'/
work associated with stables and
paddocks?
“Oh, I love it! It’s not like
work at alh,” said Jean, “not like
working in some old office job.
Actually, I have been thinking
about going to college and deci
ded to take this year off and train
horses for Dad and then make un
my rpind about college.”
Here’s a sample of the daily
routine for Jean Safford:
She and her Dad are on the
track about 7 a. m. each morning
exercising some of the 20 horses
entered in Bay, State races.
Usually exercising takes ud
most of the morning, then there
are harness repairs to be taken
care of and other duties about the
stables.
Jean’s afternoons are usuallv
free for swimming or tennis, but
she’s back in the paddocks at six
in the evening to assist her father
in preparing for the evening’s
races.
By the time the first race is
ready to get under way at 8:15.
•Jean has taken her seat in the,
grandstand to root the Safford
horses home.
“There are somie draw/backs for
a girl,” admitted Jean. “Although
I like traveling from place to
nlace in the country. I find it’s
especially hard on clothes, the
packing and unpacking. A fellow
nan get av'av with some slacks
and a couole of snort coats, but a
girl has to nack so much.”
“I’m really enjoying it here in
Foxboro this summer,” she add
ed. “This is a lot like home to me
and everyone has been so nice.”
What’s in the future for Jean
S-p-Ff nrH ? •

I’d like to be a veterinarian.” she

explained. “But it would take an
awful long time to get the proper
preparation. Maybe some day,
when Dad wants to retire. I’ll
operate and train the horses un
der his direction and we’ll have
others drive them for us.”
If you’re out early to the track
some of these summer nights and
you think you see a lovely young
lady exercising trotters and pac
ers for that night’s races, you’re
not seeing things. . - you’re
