McIntosh course organised

The Canterbury area of the N.Z.H.S Show Jumping committee has arranged a Colin Mclntosh course from September 26 to 29. A group fee will be $7O (deposit $2O), and the private fee $2B (deposit $10). Deposits must be paid by August 16 to Mrs Mary Snoep, 197 Taylors Mistake Road, Sumner, Phone 266-182.

A national points series, run by the N.Z.H.S., has been introduced for A and B grade ponies. This new competition will be based on the system under which the Bayer Kintal Grand Prix series, for A and B horses is operated. Classes will be run at major shows, and prizewinners will be awarded points, which will count for their over-all points.
