Coed Prepares For Double Role In Horse Show
For a KU coed doubly-involved in the American Royal Horse show, next week's schedule looks like a rough one.
Elsie Mayor, Kansas City sophomore, will compete in three classes, and also will coach several of her students for the show. To do this, Miss Mayor must be at the American Royal grounds at 6 a.m., every day, drive to Lawrence for classes at 8:30, and return to Kansas City for the afternoon and evening competition.
"This is the 11th straight year that I've ridden in the Royal," Miss Mayor said. "In 1953, I was the youngest junior rider jumping in the show. This year, one of my students is again the youngest junior rider."
THE BLUE-EYED blond is enthusiastic about the success of her six students. "They've been winning prizes in all the horse shows in this area." Miss Mayor said proudly. "Now I know how my instructors felt when I came home with a blue ribbon. I get goosebumps just thinking about it."
Miss Mayor's career in horsemanship began when she was nine years old. "I was hiking through the woods near our home when I saw a beautiful horse. I followed him back to the stables, where I met an eighteen-year-old girl who agreed to give me riding lessons if I would work in the stables."
After learning the basics of riding and jumping, Miss Mayor spent several years training horses and riders. She was a show rider and assistant instructor for Capt. William C. Meyer at the Meyer Remount Farm at Leavenworth.
DOW FINSTERWALD WAS THE youngest golfer ever to be chosen PGA Player of the Year. He was 29 when selected in 1958.
