Penn-Marydel foxhounds broke tradition at the Virginia Foxhound Show on May 25, when Rose Tree Needy entered the championship ring on the grounds of Morven Park, Leesburg, Va. In the past, it seemed a hopeless gesture to exhibit a Penn-Marydel against the champion American, English and Crossbred foxhounds when the hounds were compared against one another to determine the best of the day. But Rose Tree Needy and championship judge C. Martin Wood III, MFH Live Oak (Fla.), changed that.
