    Charlottetown’s 1958 Old Home
    Week will go down in the records
    as having given the largest
    amount ever offered for a har-
    ness race meeting in the Mari-
    times, and also the credit of hav-
    ing attracted the largest number
    of trotters and pacers since har-
    ness racing was first introduced
    in these provinces by the sea.

    The weatherman has behaved
    quite well, up until the time of

    lange attend-
    anees of enthusiastic spectators
    has shown that the efforts of the
    management to put on their pro-
    grams for trotters and pacers
    with in the vicinity of $25,000 in
    purses, has paid off.
    MONDAY NIGHT —

    A brief review of the events
    will recall to mind the happenings
    of fhe week, Monday night the

    feature event, the Harry O’Brien

    HUNTER’S CORNER

    Unseasonable Blizzard May
    Have Caused Duck Fall-Off

    As noted by a recent news
    item in the local press the flight
    of ducks on the Atlantic, Central
    and Mississippi Flyways will be
    down in comparison with last
    season's fall flight, The Pacific
    Flyway is the only one of the four

    expected to be on a pat with 1957 |

    Drought conditions in sections of
    the West, particularly in Sask-
    atchewan, necessitated for re-
    duction in the daily bag limit
    hunters in the West. No cause
    was specified for the expected
    reduction in the fall flight on our
    own Flyway the Atlantic. It is
    quite probable that the uhséason-
    able blizzard of May 3rd __ last
    spring laid the foundation for this

    ‘fall off in the northenn flight.

    Black ducks were down 30 per
    cent over all the Maritime pro-
    vinees last fall.

    A record July hatch gave us
    passable duck shooting on. the
    opening morning (1957) but this
    columnist figures that approx-
    imately 95 per cent of the early
    hatch was lost. Ordinarily black
    ducks are incubating their eggs
    on May 3rd but this blizzard we
    mention. sealed the dandscape
    under a foot, or more, of wet
    snow. Gafe force winds caused
    it to drift in opén places and nest-
    ing ducks had either leave their
    nests ot be smothered. It was sev
    éral days before this snow clear-
    ed off to any noticeable extent.

    onel Henry paid $8.70 in the ex-
    actor and the second daily double
    in the seventh and eighth dashes,

    Eskimos Keep
    ‘Big Names
    Under Wraps

    OTTAWA (CP)—Edmonton Es-
    kimos, who Thursday night lost
    29-21 to Winnipeg Blue Bombers
    in the opening game of the 1958
    Western Interprovineial Football
    Union season, appear slated for
    box office trouble should they
    ever again tackle an exhibition
    game in Ottawa.

    Coach Sam Lyle, however, kept
    his ‘‘name’’ stalwarts on. the ice
    for the ‘greater part of the game
    and it was only in the dying min-
    utes that he sent in the attrac-
    tions the crowd had gone to see
    in. action—Norm Kwong, Johnny
    Bright and Jackie Parker.

    By then Riders were leading
    26-0 and the impatient crowd, ir-
    nitated at having been denied the
    chance of seeing the Grey Cup
    Eisks in action, booed their ap-
    pearance. | /

    tons Cheers
    Not For The
    Biggest Fish

    GALILEE, R'I. (AP)—The big-
    gest round of cheers at the U.S.
    Atlantic tuna tournament Friday
    did not go to the biggest fish.
    It did not go to the biggest boat:
    or the biggest fisherman, either.
    As a matter of fact, it was the
    smallest boat and the smallest
    fisherman around that drew the
    wildest enthusiasm from specta-
    tors. ‘

    And the fisherman, who didn’t
    look a day more’ than-18, wasn’t
    even in the tournament.

    But he and his 18-foot inboard
    were right in line with about
    eight of the big tournament boats
    waiting to have the derrick hoist
    the fish ashore from the boats,
    “Get out of there, get out of
    there!" the patrol boat loud-
    speakers blasted at him. ‘'You’re
    not in the tournament. Get out
    of here,”

    CHICAGO (AP) ~ Chicago
    White Sox took an early lead and
    then held on grimly Friday to de-
    feat Cleveland Indians, 4-3, and
    run their string of successes to
    Phillips ted the Sox attack with
    four hits and drove in two puns.
    It was the only day gare in
    the major baseball leagues. —
    Barry Latmian, rookie night-
    hander, was the winner of Hal
    Woodeschick but needed help
    from Turk Lown, The veteran
    former National Leaguer came
    in at the seventh with one run
    in, the bases full and none out.
    He escaped unscathed from that
    jam, got into one of his own in
    the eighth, then breezed through
    the ninth, :

    Russ Nixon, Indians’ catcher
    was struck in the neck by a foul
    tall in the eighth and forced to
    leave the game.

    The Sox got a rin in the fourth
    on singlés by Billy Goodman,
    Ron Jackson and Phillips and an-
    other in the fifth when Jit Lan-
    dis singled and eventually tallied
    on Al Smith’s single.

    In the sixth, Jackson was hit
    by a pitched ball and scored on
    a double by Phillips, who was out
    trying for a triple. Latman sin-
    gled and later scored when Wood:
    eschick missed a throw at firsl
    for an error.

    BALTIMORE: (AP) — Pitcher
    Vito Valentinetti held Baltimore
    Orioles to five hits Friday night
    while Washington Senators
    sprayed an 11-bit attack for a 3-1
    Victory.

    Two of Orioles’ hits were by
    Bob Boyd, including: his . sixth
    homer of the season for the only
    Baltimore run in the third inning:

    The fidgety B.C. resident con-

    gered a five-run uprising Friday
    night that gave Cincinnati Red-
    legs a 6-1 victory over Pittsburgh
    Pirates.

    Purkey struck ot only two
    men but had little trouble stalling
    his former teammates,

    Purkey got the big rally started
    with a single. Pirate starter Ron
    Kline walked Alex Graminas and
    Jerry Lynch,

    ‘To try to salvage the tie game,
    the Pirates sent in Roy Face but

    an invitation to compete in Brit-

    the first time this year with a
