TWO YOUNGSTERS: Six-year-old Julie Ann LaRoe checks on the welfare of her new colt, an appaloosa foal bred at her rural Ann Arbor township home. Julie is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William LaRoe of 4495 Plymouth Road. The colt, about a week old, is of the relatively new appaloosa breed developed to provide horses that reach a mature size between that of a pony and the larger, more normal sizes of horses, LaRoe said. The aim, he added, is to produce a horse suitable for a child, but one which the youngster will not outgrow.
