Good posture and skid in Horsemanship seem almost synonymous, and L. DE VIL- LEGAS is a fine example of both. LOURDES and VIRGINIA (Lovaton) arc both from Coral Gables. Florida, where riding is a year round sport. Here in the north we think of swimming in sum- mer. skiing in winter, and nding for a few short weeks in late spring or early fall. Some of the Tuesday group line up. They are V. LOVATON. L. DE VILLEGAS. P TORIELLO. C. GRAHAM. E. FOX and R DWYER A hegmner would have been frightened if her horse began to pull at the reins as LIZ’s is doing in the picture at the right, but LIZ is mistress of the situation and handles her mount well. Following her are CHRIS (Graham) and PAT (Toriello). We see VIRGINIA’S head in the background.

For Those Who Love Horses And Riding There Is The “C-L-R-A The “C L R A” is the CHERRY LANE RIDING ACADEMY, chosen again this year for two reasons: 1) It is the only Riding Academy nearby which could provide transportation for our girls, and 2) Both the instruction and the horses are fine! In the picture at the right, one of the Rid- ing Instructors adjusts the stirrup for R. Dwyer. So that the “proficients” will not be slowed up by instructions needed by “beginners” each group goes on a different day, and this happened to be TUESDAY—for the proficients. C. GRAHAM rode well before she came to the Mount, and she looks for- ward eagerly to sunny autumn days and a canter through the woods. V. LOVATON and L DE VILLEGAS are ready to follow her as she leads the way. first around the fenced in track, and then out the gate and along the woodland trail.
