How they can recognize any Thoroughbred = they ever saw -- sometintes a long distance away -- is really astonishing. * * = SO We recall one. afternoon, some years ago, when a real veteran of the work-watching brigade came into a Sports Department we hap- pened to be connected with, He made the casual remark that he could identify any horse he had ever seen. One of his listeners rather doubted 'this statemnt and a test was made.

"If [ have, he's slipped my memory -- I" guess I'm getting old." * * LJ Turning over the picture, we saw tliat it was of a horse that had never raced in these parts. The photograph, 'through carelessness cot the part of a filing clerk, had ot into the wrong drawer. Our "friend, the work-watcher, was jus- tified ohne hundred pes cent, He knew horscs--knows horses--has "heen around them-all-his life.
