JOHN BOSLEY’S PERFORMANCE AUTHORITATIVE AT RAPPAHANNOCK POINT-to-POINT RACES by Mrs. Mary Jamieson On April 3, at the oft-postponed Rappahannock Races, trainer-rider John Bosley, III, piloted two winners through heavy spring showers to take both the Mt. Marshall Challenge Trophy and the Mary D. Slaughter Perpetual Trophy, two of the niajor races of the Rappahannock Card. Because of oozing weather, the course was shortened from 3 miles to approximately 2Vz miles by eliminating the second swing over mountain fences and reducing the number of jumps to ten. The Mt. Marshall, (min. wt. 175 lbs.) haijl three starters: Everett McClanahan on his High Player, Orville Mooney on Mrs. Michale van Beurpn’s Camroc and John Bosley on John D. Shapiro’s *Bally Guy. From the start to the 8th fence the three ran closely grouped with High Player setting a steady pace in first position, and Bosley keeping Bally Guy a carefully controlled distance behind in second place. Camroc was right there over all fences running a close third until he bubbled on the 9th fence, catapulting his rider well into the air before dropping him on the soft wet turf. The tenth and last fence saw High Player over first with Bally Guy placed in a close second position. At the moment of landing Bosley increased pace and steadily moved forward to High Player’s side, then during the last 10 yards. Ballv Guy’s speed was increased just enough to arrive at the finish line one length ahead of the consistently and ably riden pace setter. The Mary D. Slaughter open race, (min. vvt 165 lbs.) was a two horse duel between the Bosley-ridden Old Chapel, owned by Robert B. Young, and Mrs. George C. Fox’s Cannes, riden by Major Fox. Over the first three fences. Old Chapel took the lead position with Bosley pacing the chestnut in spite of its rank and rough way of going. At the fourth fence Old Chapel and Cannes took off at the same moment and continued in very close company over the fifth. At the 6th jump, the one high on Mason Mt.. Old Chapel gained the lead in flight. Major F'ox im mediately pulled to tne inside position during that formidable counterclockwise saving off the mountain toward the 7th fence.a useful manoeuvre. however, Cannes was unable to move in and take advantage. Old ChaPel knocked hard at the 8th fence that leads through the crowd, but this did not seem to faze horse or rider whose whole trip had been anything but smooth. During the eighth of a mile sprint home, Bosley, With an experienced and professional style, lengthened his lead over Fox by holding to a line as straight as a taut cord, while Cannes billowed slightly in his push for the finish line. Ln the Ben Venue Heavyweight Race, (min. wt. 200 lbs.) two chestnuts and two greys went over the first fencd in a well blended knot. At the second fence, J. Steffee, III, riding his first race, took the lead on IWon T. Greenaway’s Our Virginia. Joseph |Claffy’s veteran Graylight, earring Gordon Fishback and 40 pounds of lead, emerged second, followed by Michael Marsh on his grey Filabeg.

The Association pointed out that the new indusrty, a textile plant which manufactures women’s and children’s nationally-known sportswear, is a financially sound business, especially desirable for Rappahannock County because it is a “clean” industry_._.there will be no bad odors, smoke or other offensive elements from their manufacture. It will require little water other than that necessary for the service of employees. It is estimated the plant ultimately will employ 130 or more people._97% of which will be women. A labor survey will get underway within the next two weeks to ascertain the total labor force available in the county and any women interested in obtaining work at theplant should advise their nearest Committeemen, listed below: Washington, Mrs. Virginia Miller; Flint Hill H.

Every business in the county should feel the impact of a new 130-man payroll. New homes will be needed. Real estate values will increase. More important, greater tax revenue will be realized which in turn will enable more facilities, better schools, etc. I.ast and most important, it will be a step toward the capitalization of money we are putting into our young folks.

R A r A li A N N 0 C K NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE. WASHINGTON BASIL C, BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mail at tb^Poet Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in"advance)-- - *2.50 PER YEAty YO0R CONGRESSMAN 7FPORTS n ' •J. Harrison Washington — How many Valiev poultrymen are readv to sign up with Jimmy Hof fa’s Teamster s U n ion ? I can hear the rejoinder now: “Teamster’s Union how silly can you get?’ No, 1 don't really believe the cooky truck-driver boss would be welcomed as a hero, albeit a tarnished one,, bv the hard pressed poultry producers and marketers of our area. There is a grim warning to all sincerely interested in the Valley economy, however, implicit in recent news du^atches from New Jersey. Mr./lloffa engirire-ed an invitation to address 1,000 poultry fanners of the Vineland and Lakewood sections. He offered to organize them under the wing of his big Teamsters organization, ma;'\ of whose kev officers, according to testimony givrn Congressional investigators, emphasize the strongman approach to employeermplovrr relations. "Hie news reports said the poultrvinen, bitter about continuing lev market prices, shouted approval of the Hof fa bid, and only one dissenting vote was heard. Kmboldened by this indn'ation of support, Mr. Hof fa said he would urge his union’s units in other States to press campaigns to recruit farm ^groups. Whv would a farmer align himself with Jimmy Hoffn? It is a strange alliance, to be sure, and its development can best be explained bv canny timing of the union boss’ offer to capitalize on unrest and angre born of growing despair. Whether poultry locals actually will be formed by the Teamster’s Union remains to be seen. Hie strategy of such units in attempting to advance the economic wellbeing of poultrymen has not been unveiled. In many major trading centers, truck transportation has been Hoffaized thoroughly. If his farm argani/.ing drive makes any headway, it is reasonable to assume that lie would attempt to exclude .11 but his unionized poultry and eggs from delivery to dealers and consumers in these markets. The President of the New Jersey Farm Bureau was quoted as expressing, doubt about, the judgment of farmers' joining a union, because “it is against the law for unions to bargain for prices”. Let us not be too quick to conclude, however, that Mr. Hoffa’s excursion into agricultural organization can be scoffed away. Both employers and independent-minded members of his own union have found that Jimmy Hoffa usually means business. Wliat changes in farmers' thinking, at least in New Jersey, have permitted Hoffa to stalk out of the truck terminals into a poultrymen's meeting and find a warm welcome ? Well, it is unnecessary to tick o‘’f ‘or • eader- in a major poultry reg'on *he «u -cession of difficulties which have plagued the producers in recent years. The poultry industry has been attempting to make its own way without Federal pricesupports or production controls in tire face of the national farm polic.e- tailored to the ^datively few supported commodities and the minorirv of the Nation’s farmers who produce them. Poultrymen have received less than energetic assistance, in many ca-es, from their (Government ini.' their own industry’s efforts to de-; velop and expand overseas markets. They have seen the (Government index of prices paid by farmers soar 2d points in -even years while prices received by farmers fell 24 points, for a combined adverse change of 46 points. Caught in this squeeze, they have watched helplesslv while certain key industries with what amounted to monopolistic price situations, notably steel, have negotiated political price settlements n which the farmers, and other consumers, have j o voice other than moans of anguish as they try to force their own budgets into balance. While we might agree that the New Jersey poultry farmers are not well-advised to seek relief through a new union sponsored by Mr. Hoffa. there is an economic Bring Your Home Up To Date WE ARE DIRECT AUTHORIZED DEALERS FOR - FIBERCLAS BLOWN INSULATION ALUMINUM STORM WINDOWS, DOORS, SIDINGS FLINTKOTE SIDING AND BUILDING MATERIALS JALOUSIE PORCH ENCLOSURES — LONG TERM FINANCING — — APPROVED F.

Desperation enhances the appeal of a figure who, questionable methods or no, seems to get results for his adherents. Farmers have a traditional pride in their independence. Only desperation would prompt them to sign it away to Jimmy Hcffa. The New Jersey development should serve as a warning to those elements of the nation’s business that have preferred to disregard or discount the reaction to their monopolistic inflationary wageprice actions of fanners and other groups not vet organized into strong economic bargaining forces.

Jake looks well and it was nicej to see them out. Well the cat always gets out of the bag aful believe me this cat no one likbs. Jassamine Hill is to be sold, meaning Rappahannock loses soaie very good, friends, but we hope they will not be too far away. Trippy Keating and Tim will be back as often as possible, I am sure.

Our Virginia continued her unchallenged and lengthening lead through to the finish. At the third fence Chardon took command of second place, with Filabeg and Greylight fighting it out over the next six fences for third place. At the ninth fence, Filabeg began to flag noticably. The four finished with literally hundreds of yards between each horse. Our Virginia, first, Chardon, second; Graylight, third; Filabeg, fourth. It should be remarked that Mr. Steffee rode his initial race with considerable sophistocaton. The biggest and probably most eventful race of the day was the Col. Richards Memorial, over a lVfe-mile course and 7 fences, for riders who have not reached their 18th birthday. The eight entries ranged from two 13-hand ponies such as Church Mouse riden by Miss Louise Whitney and Manly Bruce’s Pardner, little grandson of Mon of War, to 16-plus thoroughbreds and even a stallion, William Strickler’s Big Blue riden by Miss Mitzi Johnson. Mss Lee Greenaway lost an iron 50 yards from the start, but totally unaffected, took her big-jumping Redmond to the front at the first fence. Miss Betty Sue Lanz on Mr. E. R.

These two came neck and neck over the gate fence and up the hill through the crowd. But Redmond’s well directed approach to |he sixth fence near the road put him well on top, while Compromising Lady swung \yay wide and had to circle back to get into her fence. Big Blue came on third with Kathy Fletcher!closing in with her brilliant little hunter, G.I. Bill whch unfortunately had a bad sixth fence and tossed his rider. At the finish, Redmor.d j and young Lee, brandishing her: hat, were still running and riding ihard. Compromising Lady came in for a good second after the bg detour. Big Blue finished third with Gardner a close fourth. The rest qf the field wandered in at intervals. The Rappahannock Races were quite exciting in spite of the foul weather. Not one complaint was heard nor excuse murmured by owners or riders concerning the course, and the crowd of approximately 1000 soaked people were in the most affable of spirits even though they were standing ankle deep in mud with hat brims dripping like gargoyles. Everyone seemed glad and relieved that, at last, the Rappahannock Races were being run. FOR SALE—50-gallon oak barrels. Bob’s SouvenH Shop Sperrvv;,,e. V.rgini; FOR SALE—2 -horsepower electric motor.
