Melbourne OI.R) The
magnificent -golden chestnut
stood there haughtily, ears prick
ed forward and thoroughbred
nostrils flaring aristocratically.
"A fair dinkum reliable
horse," somebody breathed soft
ly, the words echoing on tip-toe
through the hushed hall.
For this was Phar Lap, the
greatest race horse ever to come
out of Australia.
And even today almost a
quarter of a century since he
died in California crowds ga
ther around a gleaming glass
stall in a Melbourne museum to
stare in wonder at his symmet
ric beauty.
He was a lot of horse, this
Phar Lap. A big and racy geld
ing with the look of those who
won't be beaten captured in the
glassy eyes which stare unwav
eringly down the museum cor
ridor at an aboriginal family
tableau.
Only a stuffed horse now,
standing eternally bridled as if
ready to be led into the pad
dock. But they did a grand job
on him. The veins stand out in
his once-flying legs, the mahogany-red
tail sweeps almost to
the floor and the auburn mane
lies carefully combed against
the glistening beauty of his silk
en hide.
One look at him and you can
understand the resentment still
carried in some Australian
hearts because he died myster
iously on his American invasion. I
This was the Man O'War from
Down Under, the racing pride of
a tremendously sports-minded
nation.
Back in the early thirties he
cleaned up everything in the
land under the Southern Cross.
He won the coveted Melbourne
Cup, the Victoria Derby and
just about everything else he
entered. The big horse won close
to $25,000, which, in those days,
was a considerable bundle of hay.
Shipped To North America
So they gave him his chance
and shipped him to North Am
erica to make his bid for Inter
national greatness. He won one
race and then, you get a lot of
different stories as to what hap
pened. He died of poisoning
Some say it was intentional
Others contend that It wasn't.
Phar Lap was foaled in New
Zealand. And an old timer who
had made the pilgrimage to his
shrine observed:
"Do you know, the Australian
newspapers had two headlines
ready for him when he made his
first American race? One said
"Great Australian Champion
Wins.' The other said 'New Zea
land Horse Fails'."
It is hard to imagine, as you
look at his classic lines, that if
he hadn't eaten grass tainted
with arsenic that April after
noon of 1932 in California, he
could have ever been beaten.
As the man said, turning
away from the huge glass clase
in which Phar Lap stands:
He was. indeed, a "fair din
kum" horse!

Jackson County Walton Chapter
Receives Division Exhibit Award
Jackson county chapter of the
Izakk Walton league won the
exhibit award last week end at
the Oregon division convention
at Eugene.
The exhibit was of pictures,
correspondence, documents and
newspaper clippings in connec
tion with the chapter's success
ful effort to secure federal ap
propriation for screening the
turbine intakes at Savage Rapids
dam on Rogue River. Screening
will prevent destruction of
downstream migrating fish. A
plaque was awarded to the chap
ter. Division support of the Jack
son County chapter's efforts with

for development of Bear creek
watershed under public law was
indicated by a resolution passed
at Eugene.
Col. Paul Weiland, Medford, a
state director, was reelected di
vision vice president for south
ern Oregon.
Resolutions passed aimed at
the state legislature included a
request that the state forester
be designated to administer pol
lution laws in the case of logging
operations. Prohibition of the
use of splash dams in streams
also was asked.
Indian Reservation Measure
A measure approved by del
egates also asked for amend
ment by congress of provisions
for disposal of the Klamath In
dian reservation in order to as
sure sustained timber yield, pro
tect the economy of the area
and maintain the healthy condi
tion of the watershed. The res
olution asked further for main
tenance of the 60,000 acres of
Klamath marsh land to keep up
the wild waterfowl habitat and
to provide for propagation on at
least as good a level as at pre
sent. Other resolutions aimed at
congress suggested a program
for employment of youth similar
to the former civilian conserva
tion corps and for amendment
of the federal power act to re
quire approval by a state of
projects wholly within a state.
Miltiple use of Warner valley
to improve the wild waterfowl
habitat was proposed
Jay Walker, Medford High
school student, was chairman for
