Many years ago there was an article in the Review by Helen Miller-Fisher just
after she judged the National. She stated that there weren't many judges that
could follow a clear enough procedure for a show the size and prestige of our
national. She felt that many judges would not be able to handle the pressure
of such a show (including pressure from handlers). Anyway, you all get the
gist. It is maybe easier today with entries being smaller than in the past so
a judge may not have to be as fast but I think that they need to be clear in
his/her ring procedure. Maybe Helen can chime in and add her experience!
We are certainly working from an ever shrinking pool of qualified judges. I
think that one of the club's initiatives should be development of judges (I am
sure we currently have a program of some sorr, just not sure how active it
is). Cynthia
