Not too early on Thanksgiving morning the fox-hunters gathered in front of the Carolina. The fox, given a generous lead, was followed down the old Southern Pines road and through the Piriedale woods, and caught up with — not caught — after an hour and a half. Reynard was up a tree, in which posi tion his likeness may be seen on the cover of this issue. Among the riders not moving too fast for the re porter were A. R. Balsam, William B. Gouger, J. C. Alexander, Miss Ada May Wilson of Southern Pines, James Cullen and Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Edmundson of Warren, N. H., Mr. and Mrs. John Bunn of Asheville, Mrs. Beverley Walt ers, J. E. Hewston, William Crisco, and J. C. Thomas and Lloyd M. Tate, who organized the hunt. The fox, captured after he thoughtlessly jumped from the tree, was kept for a few days at the stable but died shortly from rat-poisoning which he found in his box. C. S. Strout of Biddeford, Me., a veteran golfer who had never tried his hand at bows and arrows, made a possible 54 to win the first archery meet of the season. It was a six-arrow competition from the fifty-yard mark, and was reported in the papers as the first meeting of the Carolina Archers’ Association. The secret of this organization is closely guarded. The prantland Rice Sportlight, not satisfied with the gymkhana, went out in the woods beyond Aberdeen to take the first sound movies of quail shooting. The move ment of the birds ,the commands to the retrievers and the other hunting talk, and the final appearance of the quail on toast are included. The results of the Thanksgiving gymkhana—pic tured on page five—were as follows: Special matched trot, one mile, won in straight heats by Forest Girl (W. H. Watt) ; Bon Bingen (Henry Scott), second.
