Best Show Yet
Tryon’s Horse and Hound Shows
get better and better every
year and this 14th big event at
tracted approximately 5,000 people
from all over the nation. Except
for the wind the weather was per

everywhere and not a cloud in the
sky. The Hound show was the
biggest ever, said Manager C. W.
Ballenger, and the Judge Roger
Stone of Lexington, Ky., was high
ly pleased with the whole show.

done. The Spartanburg Herald and
the Asheville Citizen this morn

the show, giving in detail the win-
of the various classes. Both
also published some attrac
tive pictures, taken by staff photo
graphers and W. Thomas McGrath,
of Sheridan, Wyoming.
