For this reason I believe that every club in our league has a chance at the pennant. There is western teams and the champion Bt. Louis Cardinals In particular. Gee Walker returning in outfield.

The Futurity sponsored by the Tennessee Horseman's Association is restricted to animals owned in this state and boasts only "a few more" than in 1943. Nominations for the 1944 American Saddle Horse Breeders Futurity of Tennessee, which will probably be held at Memphis as usual, are IT stallions, 114 mares, 36 yearlings, and 18 two-year-olds entered by 34 nominators in ten states.

Last yesr there were 19 stallions, 96 mares, 31 yearlings snd 18 two-year-olds from 29 nominators.
