Hobbs, Head, Animal Husbandry - Veterin­ ary Science Department, Institute of Agriculture, The University of Ten­ nessee, and Dr. M. E. Ensminger, President, Agriservices Foundation. There are four major courses, or areas of specialization, which horse­ men may elect. The number of days devoted to and the schedule of each course follows: Horses and Horsemanship Course, 5V2 days, Monday morning, June 23 - Saturday noon, June 28. Riding School Instructor’s Course, 10 days, Monday morning, June 23 - Thursday night, July 3. Student Equitation Course, lOdays, Monday morning, June 23 - Thurs­ day night, July 3. Farrier Science Course, 10 days, Monday morning, June 23 - Thurs­ day night, July 3. This is a Horse School and not a horse clinic. As evidence of the cali­ ber of the course, it, along with the Stockmen’s School conducted by Ag­ riservices Foundation, is the only short courst in the nation that car­ ries regular resident college credit for those eligible and interested. Yet, enrollment for college credit is not required. Anyone, any age, and both sexes may enroll; a love for and in­ terest in horses and a desire to learn more about them are the only requis­ ites. Volume 3, HORSE SCIENCE HANDBOOK, an up-to-date book au­ thored for this course, will be used as the class text. All enrollees will be housed in dormitories on the cam­ pus of The University of Tennessee. Local horsemen of the area will pro­ vide the necessary horses, tack, and other supports. Dr. Ensminger stated, "On behalf of the 40 distinguished Trustees and members of the Board of Agriserv­ ices Foundation, the non-profit foun­ dation that conducts the Horse Sci­ ence School, it is our pleasure to accept the invitation of The Univer­ sity of Tennessee to host the rotated Horse Science School of 1969.” The Horse Science Schools attract enroll­ ees from over a wide area, from throughout the United States, Can­ ada and Mexico. Dr. Charles Hobbs commented,per­ taining to the Horse Science School: "It is a pleasure to host the Horse Science Schools with Agriservices Foundation. We are looking forward to providing this opportunity to all who take advantage of it. The tre­ mendous interest in horses recently is attested to by the rapid increase in the horse population, the number of 4-H horse projects, and the in­ crease in the enrollment in horse courses at UT. We believe this is a great opportunity for all people in­ terested in horses and look forward to seeing you in 1969.” In their joint announcement, Dr. Hobbs and Dr. Ensminger continued, "An outstanding staff of more than 20 horse specialists from coast to coast has been recruited, and the program is now being finalized.” For a printed program or other informa­ tion, write to Dr. M. E. Ensminger, Director, Horse Science School, 3699 East Sierra Avenue, Clovis, Californ­ ia 93612. EDITOR’S NOTE: The specificpart of this fine program devoted exclus­ ively to Tennessee Walking Horses will be held Tuesday, June 24, and will come under the "Horses and Horsemanship Course.” This five- and-a-half day phase of the program will feature four major breeds in addi­ tion to the Tennessee Walking Horse. These are: Appaloosas, Quarter Hor­ ses, Standardbreds and Thorough­ breds. The various Breeders’ Associ­ ations are sending their top officials to U. T. to participate and one is coming from as far away as Texas. The VOICE Publishing Company will finance and support the program on behalf of the Tennessee Walking Horse industry. Your support and participation will be appreciated. HORSE HOUSING BOOKLET NOW AVAILABLE Successful solutions to problems of horse housing are presented in a new 32-page booklet.
