Black Seeks (Continued From Page 1) from returns submitted by precinct election officers. Sheriff Wallace Jones, election commission chairman, said yesterdecidedernsen it to had hold not the been recanvass. Technically, candidates until 6 p.m. Saturday to ask for such a check. However, from the majorities, it is doubtful that any other candidates will question the returns.

In asking the check, Black wrote the sheriff: "In making this request, I want to emphasize the fact that there is absolutely no thought in my mind that any violation of the laws has occurred in connection with the count. I have complete confidence in the integrity of present election officers and the tabulations. "However. in view of the small difference between the totals of my opponents and myself, I cannot discount the possibility that a completely honest mistake, sufficient to affect the outcome of the race, might have occurred in transferring the machine totals to the precinct tally sheets. A recanvass should remove any trace of doubt that the will of the voters has been correctly recorded." Miss Owens (Continued.

I mean it's not forbidden to union officials YET, is it?" Forbidden, honey? It's mandatory. By Philip Van Doren Stern FT. MYER, Va.

Time was -and not too long ago- -when a horse was considered noble and indispensable fighting instrument. During the Civil War, Union forces alone relied on some 000 horses (and 450.000 trusty mules) to mount troops, haul guns, supplies, ambulances. Against this peak use, the Army today boasts a grand total of 17 picked steeds here and even they have been regarded officially as so useless that an attempt was made AS recently as last February to get rid of them. Only a loud, spontaneous public outery persuaded the Pentagon to change its mind. The horses, comprising 16 matched grays and one black, have a specialized job.

They're the famous funeral horses at Arlington National Cemetery, and they keep busy, Since any serviceman is entitled to free burial at Arlington, funerals in this vast and celebrated necropolis (it used to be part of the estate of Robert E. Lee) take place at the rate of 15 to 18 a day. Only two or three of these, however, use the caisson horses; and not all 17 are used in each case. Only a general, admiral or former cavalry officer rates the black steed. Sedate and elderly Call but one are more than 10 years old), the horses live comfortable, routine lives at big, airy red-brick stables here.

Each morning, after a 6:15 feeding. horses are selected for the day's ceremonial duties by Sgt. George O. Lake, in charge of operations here. The rest are turned loose in a large paddock.

Sergeant Lake, 42, is said to be the last of the Army's vanishing fraternity of stable sergeants; he supervises a detail of 15 men, all expert horsem*n, drawn from the crack Third "Old Guard" Infantry Regimentthe Army's oldest. (The unit, dating back to 1784, also provides the color guard for official Government ceremonies and the sentries who guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.) Sergeant Lake, who has handled Army horses for 11 years (he's been here for three), say's the horses never create a disturbance. Ohio Woman Files Suit Against Jackson Man A. $30,000 suit by an Ohio woman against a Jackson County man has been placed on the docket of U. S.

District Court at Richmond. Libbie Daugherty filed the suit against John C. Little, of McKee, charging that he assaulted and beat her and detained her against her will "with intent to have carnal knowledge." Also placed on the Richmond docket was a suit by Thelma Lucille Barron and Gilbert Parke, doing business as Richmond Motor asking $26,200 damages from William Gill, New Jersey. The suit resulted from a collision April 17 between an automobile owned by the motor firm and driven by Miss Barron and another car operated by Gill. Two Boys Treated Two young boys were treated at St.

Joseph's Hospital yesterday for minor injuries. Jerry Thompson, 5. of 1019 Bryan Avenue, was bitten on the right arm by a dog. Attendants said the dog had been given rabies shots prior to the incident. Willis Bright 12, of 623 North Upper Street, suffered some swelling after putting too much boric acid in his eyes.

They're accustomed to band music, bugle calls, graveside fusillades, booming cannon salutes. What may rattle them occasionally, he admits. is the flashing sabers at a Navy funeral. Looking back, he also recalls the time some of the horses went AWOL. Well not these horses, exactly, but they were Army horses.

"It was in 1942." he recalls, "when the Army was mechanizing National Guard units, and we had more than 200 horses turned in at the Remount Station at Fort Royal. A bunch of them broke out of the pasture, and it took us 30 days to round them up again. I guess some of them got off in the woods and died. Anyway, I guess you'd have to admit they were AWOL for a time. And for horses, that's pretty rare." With Memorial Day celebrated in most states this Thursday, the cemetery horses of Arlington may serve as a reminder of all who have fallen in the service of their country.

They're the Army's last horses- and perhaps the last sure viving link to times past when American soldiers and their horses lived, fought and died together. Thus they preserve, in their way, the traditions of American heroism. FUNERAL FLOWERS our SPECIALTY ASHLAND FLORIST D.M.
