North Carolina News
Browning Show Stable in Chapel Hill, North Carolina celebrated the end of a successful 1968 show season with a great Barn Party. Those attending braved the snow and cold to enjoy the warm hospitality of the Brownings, trainer Jerry Derryberry, and members of his staff.
Jerry is very enthusiastic about his new crop of coming-twos. Three of these already working nicely under saddle are a black stud colt owned by the Don Stallings, Rocky Mount; a nice black filly owned by the Robert Flemings, Louisburg; and a bay filly owned by the John Feltons, Macclesfield. All three were sired by Willis Fisher’ s top stud, MIDNIGHT MACK, and the Feltons’ filly is a full sister to MIKE’ S MIGHTY RAIDER, the good two-year-old shown so successfully this past year by Kenneth Burke. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hubbard of Sanford also have two exceptionally nice colts, both sired by MIDNIGHT HAP. One of these is out of the same dam as SUPER SPORT, former World Champion Three-Year-Old Gelding.
LOVE AFFAIR, a CARBON COPY colt owned by Mr. and Mrs. B. Council, Eden; ANGEL’ S GOOD NEWS, owned by the James Chambers, Raleigh; and Don Stallings’ MISS SHAKER 66 are being readied for three-year-old classes. Two late starters that will debut in this category are Johnny Johnson’ s goodlooking black stud and the Brownings’ GLO’ S BLACK MAGIC, who is progressing exceptionally well under the handling of Jerry’ s capable assistant, Jimmy Stewart. MIKE’ S MIGHTY RAIDER rounds out the coming three-year-olds.
TALK’ S TOP JOB will represent the stable in Junio classes. This handsome bay gelding of the Browning, was an outstanding two-year-old, but was not showi this past season due to an injury.

SIR WINSTON’ S LADY B owned by Madison Drug Company of Madison, anc Sam Johnson’ s SETTING SUN’ S SON will also b < shown as Amateur horses. A newcomer to Amateu ranks will be J. B. Gibson’ s PRIDE’ S DIAMOND Thi: good-looking gelding tied well in Junior Geldings a the Celebration and should do even better next year

The Big Lick Stables, Wingate, North Carolina, has just completed its first year of operation with trainer Harold( Pee Wee) Glover in charge. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gallagher own the stables, and their two daughters- Darcy, 13, and Tammy, 9- are becoming well-known in Juvenile circles on their mares, HEAD MAN’ S SHADY LADY and ROAN PRINCESS B.
DRIFTWOOD GO BOY, a black six-year-old, is standing at stud at the stable. His owner, Wilbur Eudy, plans also to continue showing him in Amateur and Stake Classes next season. GO BOY’ S BAY LADY, sired by this stud, is one of their most promising twoyear-olds and is being trained as a future juvenile mount for owner Kendra Bivens. Other two-year-olds include a chestnut stud, CAROLINA SUN STRIDE, owned by Mrs. Jack Bulla, and MERRY SHADOW O, also a chestnut stud, owned by A. N. Shugart. Both of these did well in 1968 shows, never tying below second place.
Big Lick’ s Junior entries for the coming season will be SPRINGBROOK’ S BEAUTY, owned by Mrs. Jack Bulla, and VINCE’ S LAST CHANCE, a chestnut stud owned by Reford Turner. Jimmy Baucom’ s big black gelding, BAUCOM’ S COME ALONG, will be back again in Amateur and Stake classes.
Much attention is being focused ' on a SUN DUST colt of Pace Blackman’ s. This dapple-gray stud colt was started late in the season but is now coming into his own in great style.
From Newberry, South Carolina comes an invitation from Ralph and Jerry Mitchell to drop by and see MAUGRAY’ S MERRY MAN. This beautiful chestnut stud colt was sired by REMEMBER GO BOY and is out of a SIR MAUGRAY mare.
