We have to thank the manage- ment of Walnut Hall Farm, Lex- ington, Kentucky, for their cata- logue of yearlings and foals of 1943 which are to be sold during the Lexington trots, September 28th and 20th. it contains full par- ticulars regarding great stallions at the Farm, together with a list of all the colts and fillies that will be sold with their extended breed- ing. There are some really grand prospects among them, including Victory Song, a full brother of

the thrce-year-old trot events in Maine. Many will remember Gwen- dolyn Aubrey‘e career as a trotter when she won consistently throughout the Pine Tree state. The late Hedley T. Fulton oi Up- per Stewiacke, N. 3., bred her and also her full brother and sis- ter, Peter Pokey, 2:06 i-2, and Helen Aubrey, 2:08. Peter Pokey took his record at eleven years of age and trotters and pacers look- ed alike-to him. He held the Mari- time three-heat record trotting, made at Fredericton, September, 1034. until it was broken recently by Watchim at St. Stephen, also the Maritime trotting record for one mile, 2:07. which Watchim lowered to 2:06 3-4. Peter and Gwen played a very prominent part in race reports for years. Ac- cording to The Harness Horse they were either winners or ranked second, third or fourth in I52 race reports and in their various cam- paigns they mostly appeared in the three in five variety in the Pine Tree state.

There has been quite a bit of speculation as to whether Watchim

: 3-4 will be at the Goodwill races here. Last Tuesday ‘evening we had e telephone message from Prank Adams saying that he had decided not to send Watchim to Lexington and he would come here. During the St. Stephen race meet Frank had a very flattering offer from Mr. Mawhinney oi Sullivan st Mawhinney, whose racing stable is so famous, but it was too much of a wrench to part with the son of Volomite so Prank decided that he would either send him to Lexington for the end of the month trots or else campaign him here the rest oi the season and then race him on the Grand Circuit next year.

Elsewhere appears a page ad with the race entries for Gondwilli races next Wednesday and Thurs- day afternoons, September 20th and 21st. Over nineg horses ap-l pear in the list wi classes in some cases full to over-flowingi Of course there will be with drawals which may make quite a, difference and bring the 2:25 class at least. to more reasonable proportions. The trouble with a wo-day meet at Charlottetown is to fit in the horses to classes so as to satisfy the owners, who we may say are very rarely unreason- able. Goodwill race meet originally started as a six-race proposition. has grown up until now it may be necessary to race five classes an afternoon — if that can be done! l to complete the program. We are‘ sure the Charlottetown friends. inl fact all Prince Edward islanders.- will give a warm greeting to the mainland horsemen who have,‘ come here at considerable incon- convenience to make our race pro-' grams more interesting. We‘ trust‘ their stay will be pleasant and; that their horses will perform up: to expectations. i

IN NEW BRUNSWICK

SAINT JOHN, N. B., Sept. l5 — (CP) — The tail end oi the tropi- cal storm which lashed the Atlan- tic seaboard throughout the night reached this province early this morning. Carving a path of des- truction along the sea coast the force of the storm had abated to such an extent that it onl caused temporary disruption to t e pow- er lines in Fredericton and sur- rounding communities.

Prefaccd by a severe local elec- trical storln it struck New Bruns- wick electric power commission's service from its Grand Lake plant out n! commission and left Fredericton and nearby communit- ies without power for 20 minutes at 6:30 a. m.

The 34 mile pe ,hour wind, ac- companying the ownpour broke off branches and blew down a‘ number of trees causing the com- mission considerable trouble to its rural distribution lines near the capital.

Heaviest blow in the Maritimes was suffered by fruit growers of Nova Scotiirs Annapolis Valley‘ where about i0 per cent of the 1,-

750.000-barrel apple crop was knocked from the trees. Growers estimated the value of

the fallen apples at about $500,000 but they said a considerable part of this would be salvaged. Elsewhere in the Maritimeii, extensive damage

The Browns are now tied with Detroit for second place. half a game behind the pace- set.ing New York Yankees. It was Stephens’ 18th homer of the sea- son.

At Cleveland, Detroit Tigers blas- ted four Indians pitchers for a. 9-1 win in the second game of a twi- light-night doubleheader, but Cleve- land's 4.3 victory 1n the 12 inning opener spoiled the Tigers’ chances of grabbing first place.
