gate first on a two year old bay filly owned by Kay McCoy of Mobile, Alabama. This fancy colt has been shown six times this year and was the class winner at the Tennessee State Fair Horse Show. Charlie also has a good stud two year old chestnut colt that has been doing very well this year. Clyde Jernigan of Murfreesboro is his owner and is well pleased with his six blue ribbons. Louis Aita, of Franklin, Tennessee, will be going strong in the Amateur class on his four year old Sorrel Stallion and Kenny Hale will aim high on KENNY’ S SUN BEAM in the Pony Class. MACK K’ S ROSE, a top flight black pony owned by Mr. H. G. French of Barn Hill, Illinois will be riden by Dan Selover in the Pony Classs. Charlie will also be showing his age mare owned by Jimmy Gray of Augusta, Georgia. This back gal has been shown consistently this year and in twelve shows has placed high among some of the best around. BUDDY MOORE STABLES
Every year we can count on seeing Buddy Moore of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, working with some of the finest colts in the ring at the Celebration. Buddy has been raising top Walking Horses for several years and is obviously proud of his stock. This year he will exhibit several of his best in the show. He has nine yearlings to work with, including six MIDNIGHT SUN colts, five of which will go through the Harlinsdale Sale. SUN’ S MERRY BOY“ H”, a good looking stud colt out of an old MERRY BOY mare will first exhibit in the Futurity and then be run through the sale. He has another good Futurity colt named MIDNIGHT DEB ORA that is by“ OL’ SUN” and is a full sister to the top filly sold in the sale last year. Buddy will also have SINFULL CINDERELLA, a bay filly by MIDNIGHT SUN out of a MACK K mare and a Roan Futurity stud that is a full brother to SUN’ S STRUT ALONG. Four weanling colts lined up for the Futuritv should give their sires, EBONY MASTERPIECE and MID NIGHT SUN a boost, as these are reputed to be top colts. There will also be three colts owned by Bob
Smith of Murfreesboro in the Harlinsdale Sale that Buddy Moore will handle. Buddy has a black yearling PIDDLEY filly that he is especially proud of, and he plans to show her in the Futurity and the Open Classes. He is doing well, as usual with his colts and sales are already beginning to build up on some of his better stock. Buddy sold two top Futurity colts last month and sees prospects of several more before the Celebration. MAGNUSSON STABLES
Frank Burnum, trainer for the Magnusson Stables reports that-he will have several good entries in the“ big show” this year. His Junior Stud, PERFECTION’ S SHEIK, owned by Mabrun Magnusson and Mrs. Jewell Boyd should make a good show. This horse tied third in the P. T. A. show this year and is reported coming on strong. Frank will ride PINUP’ S JEWELL, a sorrel Junior mare owned by Boyd and Magnusson in the three year old mare class and Mr. Magnusson will show his DARK JET OF MID NIGHT in the Amateur Class. He has shown him twice this year and feels that he is a good horse. One of the several attractions to be held in and around Shelbyville during Celebration week will be a one day sale of Tennessee Walking Horses at the Magnusson Barn on Monday of the Celebration. The sale will start approximately at ten a. m. and Mr. Magnusson will make an honest effort to move as many of his two hundred fifty( PLUS) horses as possible in one day. SAM PASCHAL
Taking it easy for the first time in several years, Sam Paschal of Murfreesboro, Tennessee will have only two horses in the Celebration this year. Having won three of the last seven World Grand Championship Stake Classes at the Celebration, Sam is approaching other honors this year with a fine little two year old stud named SETTING SUN’ S DELIGHT and a top age mare named GOLD SUN’ S GOLD EN GIRL. His two year old stud is one of these colts that has rhythm and motion and hits that“ Sam Paschal” lick in fine fashion for a two year old. This red sorrel is a beautiful colt and should make a showing that his owner, Sam Paschal can be proud of. Dr. Arthur Glover of Madison, West Virginia is the proud owner of GOLD SUN’ S GOLDEN GIRL and this five year old red sorrel mare can really sit back and get the job done, especially with Sam in the saddle. It is rumored that Sam has been besieged with requests to bring his twin colts to the Celebration grounds so people can see them. Perhaps he will!
THIS AND THAT
In a recent conversation with James Rowland of Murfreesboro, Tennessee, we got the low-down on his horse activities. James has four good brood mares on pasture with four yearling colts and three weanling colts running around. All his stock at the present are MID NIGHT SUN and MERRY GO BOY bred and six will be entered in various classes at the celebration.

The noted horse was shown to 55 class and stake blue ribbons, of which 15 were over nine world and world divisional champions. His riders have been Steve Hill, Beech Grove, and Sam Paschal, Murfreesboro.
BAYOUD FARMS ROCKWELL TEXAS
