To meet the needs of this new generation of "horsepower, en thusiasts, Oregon State college has scheduled a special short course on horse judging, Novem ber 18 and 19, in cooperation with the Oregon Horsemen's associa tion. Instruction on how to select a horse, training and care of horses, and training of horse judges will be featured, reports Joe B. John son, OSC professor of animal husbandry and and short course chairman. Shortage of local official horse judges to handle Oregon's 50 or more horse shows each year re quires frequent scouting of other states for judges, Johnson says. Most frequent upsurge in pleas ure horses has come in Oregon's statewide 4-H club program. More than 1300 Oregon 4-H'ers were enrolled in saddlehorse project's during the past year and increas ed interest in 4-H horse shows at county fairs this year prompted inauguration of a State Fair juni or horse show. Johnson says enrollment for the course will be limited to 120 persons, 18 years or older, to permit individual attention to students during afternoon "judg ing workshops." Lectures are scheduled for mornings. Course Instructor will include Leonard Milligan, noted quarter horsebreeder and judge from Colorado; Joe Biles, Portland, one of the west coast's leading train ers of show horses; Gene Stark, head of Washington State col lege's horse program; Jesse Bone, Oregon State college department of veterinarry medicine; and A.
