Heat Takes Toll Of Dogs' Stamina In OH KC Trials By BOB STE8ER rofXESSEA.V Outdoor Editor FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. Sum mer heat in mid-November exacted a heavy toll on the stamina of bird dog competing hera yesterday in th 10th annual renewal of th Old Hickory Kennel club's fall field trial. And th pointers and ssttsrs which finished strongest in th dry, depressing heat were crown, ed kings and queens of th thr stakes decided by decisions of the judges, Lse Hoffman of La-Grange, Tenn and Aruthur Cur-tm of Paducah, Ky. Indicative of a good quail popu lation here on Campbell for the 58 hunting season waa the fact that the all-age dogs handled six bevy finds In the 11 quail concen trations ridden up by the gal- ler this, despite unuuallv poor setting conditions for this time of year. Satilla Wahoo Tex.

black and whit pointer owned and handled by Ralph Griffin of Taducah. was ri owned champion in th all-age stakes. Tex, rsnging wide in dene cover, elammed home on a perfect find. He handled the birds in rlsssv style, remaining staunch to the distraction of wing and shot His classy bird work and smaihing ground rat outstripped th performance of Sky High Jack and King Boy which place second and third in th main event. Sky High, owned by I P.

Eager of Evansville, and handled by M. K. (Mike) Jordan for Trainer Bill Tavlor of Cookeville, waa credited with two finds and stop-to-flush. Tex's brace mate banged through the cowering birds to nullify Sky High'a chances of showing any steadiness to the judges. King Boy, pointer male owned by John Lathan of Paducah posted two etylish bevy finds, but didn't range as wide as th perimeter assigned contestants in all-age stakes.

Bill Taylor's kennel went one-two in the Puppy stakes as Queen, owned and handled by S. N. Barr of Baxter, won the silverware with his stylish performance. Th little blsck and whit setter's application was good and she sought out all the birdy looking places on th court. Ike, setter owned and handled by M.

K. Jordan of Nashville, gave the Taylor kennel the No. 2 spot. His style was good but the range was shy of the performance shown by Queen. Banshee Best General, a big-going Pointer, owned and handled by J.

O. Kimsey of Hartsville, showed a lot of promise but ranged in back of the gallery for too long a time. Th General was placed third. Lucy's Mill, owned and handled by Sgt. Sam Salytr of Fort Campbell, ran a stylish but close rac to adjudgsd best of th Derby antrant.

Billboard, owned and handled by Carbon Davia of Clarksvllle was placed aecond by the judges. Seeking hla third straight shoot ing dog championship in the Old Hickory trial is Tommy Prit-chett's Ariel's Miss Sue. The dog can retire the Sullivan Challenge trophy in the stake.
