McAnally, who celebrated his 82nd birthday on July 11, ages gracefully while continuing to pump out Grade 1 stakes winners. Seated at a Clocker’s Corner table one morning in June near the end of the extended Santa Anita Park meet and looking forward to Del Mar, McAnally made only a few minor concessions to Father Time while continuing his lifelong love affair with his job. “As long as I’m alive, that’s all I know how to do,” said the soft-spoken trainer of the regimen that keeps him young: showing up at the track early every morning seven days a week. “I don’t play golf, tennis, or cards.” McAnally admitted that he does not move as smoothly as he did when he was 41, largely the John Henry’s trainer and Hall of Famer Ron McAnally has just turned 82 years old result of partial knee replacement surgery in 2012, but the anticipation of his next stakes win keeps a bounce in his step and a glint in his eye. “Dan Landers, my assistant since 1995, has Ron McAnally: been my right arm, especially since the knee surgery,” said McAnally, who conditions 15 horses at Santa Anita and another four at Pomona with Jose Miranda, an employee for 42 years.

Not to worry—the real thing is readily available because Rebecca-Ruth, the company Booe and her friend Rebecca Gooch founded, is still going strong. In 1919, dissatisfied with their poor-paying jobs as substitute teachers in Frankfort, Ruth and Rebecca decided to change careers—from teaching to chocolate. It was unusual in those days for women in their twenties to become entrepreneurs, but these two had uncommon nerve and imagination. They marketed their candy by staging loud conversations about how wonderful it was in theater lob- bies and on busy street corners.They also bought a used car, stripped it down to a racer, mounted Rebecca-Ruth signs on the sides, and drove it all over central Kentucky. Rebecca-Ruth prospered, but Ruth left the business in 1924 when she married Douglas Booe.

    SILVER MINING KINGPIN OPPOSED SILVER MONEY! HIS PEERS ALSO ASSASSINATED SILVER! BENEFICIARIES OF THE CRIME OF ’73! Presented April 2017 by Charles Savoie (Focus on a member of The Pilgrims Society, Monetary Enemies of World Civilization!) I want to describe a tremendous man who is most likely unknown to you; however, he was hell on wheels and then some in mining, racehorses, water development, agriculture, railroads, banking and more. He was “as wealthy as a Rajah, as powerful as a Vanderbilt, yet nameless as John Doe.” His influence is still on the scene today over a century after his passing. He lived 1822 to 1914 and piled up a fortune of huge dimensions from 160+ mining projects from Alaska to Chile to Korea and was thought by many to be the third wealthiest man in America after Rockefeller and Carnegie. Our focus personality here became a member, like Carnegie and the Rockefellers, of a group I will briefly describe; following this we’ll describe the person matching the title of this essay. Perjury, fraud and plunder unpunished; the hallmark of Olympian scale racketeers who control the laws of nations! The diamond and gold mining trust organizer in South Africa, Cecil Rhodes, the biggest of the “Randlords,” planned the formation of a group of men similar to himself which would remain unknown to the public. Its members would be recruited from the then British Empire and the American “colonies” (the British refuse to think otherwise). The group is described (without being specifically named) in the Review of Reviews, New York, May 1902, article on the life and ambitions of Cecil Rhodes (1853-1902) whose fronting for the Rothschilds (became members) is more widely known than his fronting for the Royals (sponsors of the organization) --- Page 557 of the 1902 article has this dangerously worded statement--- “The only thing feasible to carry this idea out is a secret one (society) gradually absorbing the wealth of the world to be devoted to such an object.
