Correction:

Thomas Pierre identified the Horse Track photo on page 6 of our latest Archivos Magazine

The Horse was named Flicka, the Jockey was Martin Fujita of Japanese decent, with brother Johnny Fujita holding Flicka with the trophy.

Pierre was very quick to know anyone with horses, except as he said when the photos were before his time.
