An estimated crowd of between 1,000 and 1,500 adults and children attended the Illinois Quarter Horse association regional show on Sunday at the H. H. Mass farm, sponsored by the northern region of Illinois Quarter Horse association. The show l)egan at 8 in the morning and continued until 6:30 in the evening. Typical western attire was the "uniform" of the day. There were twenty-nine different classes which included halter (confirmation) and performanre^ Four races were conducted with professional jockeys competing for purses. The starting gate was located at the eastern end of the Mass property. One race was 220 yards, a no'her 330, one for 400 yards and the last one' for 440 yards. "Sparky Leo", one of the horses from the Double H Farm won the 330 yard contest. . Miss Melinda Mass, the teenager! daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Mass. won a trophy for hiqh point horse of the show. The horse's name is "Quin Hancock". The trophy was a bridle which will be treasured by this young horse woman along with her multitude of other trophies and ribbons. There were horses entered from Iowa. Wisconsin, Kansas, M i s s o u r i , M i c h i g a n , I n d i a n a and the entire state of Illinois. According to Mrs. Mass, there are more quarter horses in Illinois than any other state east of the Mississippi River. The Mass family interest in 6 horses began with the purchase of one animal for their daughter, Melinda, 9 years ago. They then purchased riding horses for son, Ed, and daughter, Anita. both of whom are now married. For a long time the Mass horses were stabled in Marengo while the family resided in Algonquin. In 1960, they purchased the farm and centralized operations. Among their some fifty j horses, the two outstanding ones are "Two-D-Two", a chamoion stallion which received a register of merit from the American Quarter Horse association and a yearling named "Two Eyed Jack". With the large amount of automobiles involved, traffic might have been a problem but this was minimized by the competent help from the McCullom Lake police department.
