It is with deepest regret but we refer to the passing of'our friend John R. Williams early this week. Johnny. Is he was better known to thousands of friends. was I prominent sports- man who had In Icqunlntnnce with football. hockey Ind har- ness racing Ind could give In authoritative opinlon.on Iny of these sports. From eIrly spring until racing ceased. Johnny would be out in.the mornings watching the horses train. timing Ind com- menting on their abilities. with always a good word to say. He also had an ownership in horses and the last one he was connect- ed with was the pacer Fairgo 2.10 NS. that went I sensational heat at Summersidu in practicalbl his last start. We were all pleased to see Johnny's and his friend Sam Kennedy's horse come through because we knew it would make them happy. During his ill- ness he kept up his courage and hopeful manner and when he was released from hospital we were all under the impression,that he would be with us I long time. On behalf of ourselves and other horsemen. we wish to convey our deepest sympathy to his wife. his son John. his mother and other relatives.

Secretary W. G. Gillespie of the Prince Edward Island Har- ness Racing Club has received one of the largest entry lists. if not theglargest. in years for its Futurity Stakes which will be rac- ed in August. Many parts of the Maritimes are represented. parti- cularly in the Three Year Old Pace, which has I record entry list of 32. The Two Year Old Trot and Pace also has I heavy entry list with M and the Four Year Old Trot has the biggest entry list that we can remember of. One of the entries is from Ray Phillips of Cambridge. Mass. Since the. inauguration of these Stakcs years ago they have grown steadily in popularity and a great deal of this is due to the Presi- dent. Dr. R. F. Seaman and the hard-working Secretary, W. G. Gillespie. As I result of their ef- forts hundreds of horses have developed into good campaigning propostions for owners and many of them have been sold for high prices. In those owned by the

is clean in habit Ind will not foul up their living quarters un- less under dire emergency or under pressure of In abnormably high temperature. During my long years as game warden I have been called on many oc- casions to referee I family quar- rel Imong skunks or else to try Ind clean up the resultant mess. Not infrequently I wind up deep- er in the mess than anyone else but In I game warden is sup- posed to be the remedy for all wildlife illI . . . so what?

This season was no exception. In I residential section of the city two fnmilies occupy I double tenement house and under the kitchen of one section I demure lady skunk attired in I glossy black fur coat with a broad white strip down the back has estab- lished I cosy flat. The family in the kitchen could look out the window on occasion and watch her taking her constitutional in the yard. Sometimes she'd sit on her hunkers and gaze It the chil- dren's. faces framed in the win- dow and then. with that peculiar hippy roll favored by' lady skunks would ankle through her apart- ment entrance. Maybe the gentle- men skunks have it too but I've never noticed. I'm willing to bet if my better half reads this column she'll remark: "I'll say you wouldn't."

Everything was under control until a big. aggressive suitor in I rather shabby dark coat with short. 'finger-with white apatit- ettes on the shoulders moved in. She must have given him the impression that he was high man in her life. He sure was a busy little fellow with his carrying in mouthfuls of dried grass and other soft material. A feather bed wasn't too good for his lady love. Like I lot of other gentlemen he buzzed off every night and didn't return before 6 a.m. His little housekeeper was keeping the home fires burning with no in- terest in any other male once he came into her life so why not enjoy his rambles through the soft spring nights . . . that's what he thought.

What I rude awakening was coming his way! He arrived home one morning last week It 6:30 p.m. (that's the time the gas bomb went off) and found another guy ahead of him . . . I guy just as big and crusty as himself. We can only guess where he was but as her apartment was just pint size he must have been in the feather bed he was so thoughtful in providing . . . there was no other place for him to go. Everyone in both the apart- ments above tumbled out of bed when the lid blew off and the pungent odor of skunk filled the building. .

That morning when I arrived at the office the phone com-

menced to ring. Yep. I told the

-In playing cards. you can sometimes win Big stakes with an ace in the hole. In O'Leary Thurs- day night all the aces were in the hole, and they knew it. So they went to work with grim deter- mination and played what was probably )he best game of their career. We never before new the Acts bnckcheck as they did in 0'Leary on Thursday evening. They stuck to their checks like leeches, and Is I result of that. and some fast skating and good combination play. took the Mar- oons by the surprising score of 7-0. Dave Mclnnis was in top form. especially in the second per- iod. with Gay in the penalty box. the Maroons unleashed I power attack such as you don't very

guaranteed to kill I skunk in- stantly without scent. The trap had been sent to me I few days previously by the Canadian As- sociation tor Humane Trapping from Toronto. I was asked to try it out. Here was the opportunity I was waiting for.

I set the trap, which is an in- tricate contraption of steel springs. and told the lady of the house to keep her children out of the yard. I assured her that it would be curtains for Mr. Skunk and she'd probably never know when he got in the trap. I looked at the trap about ten o'clock that night but it was undisturbed. That night I was awkened from a sound sleep about Il:30. At first the door bell sounded as if it were a mile away but I fin- ally stumbled downstairs and opened the door. My callers were

two members of the Mounted Police. One of them. I sergeant now,

with whom I have been on many patrols in the past. laughed and remarked: "Jenks. there's I skunk in that killer trap of yours but he's I long way from being dead . . . the phones are hot at the office." It took me I matter of minutes to throw some dud's on and hop into the police car. I felt as conspicuous as I pimple on I monument when I arrived at the scene of my trap setting. Doors and windows were open. heads were-out and the sound of strangled coughing filled the night. Figures were framed in doorways as I got out of the cIr. feeling Is "pint sized" Is it is possible to feel. Ind flanked by two six-foot Mounties. entered the gangway. No one spoke I word but I could sense what they were thinking and wishing: They got their man this time and we

often no in those intermediate games. The pressure on the Aces was blistering but Mr. Mclnnis iefused to bow before the storm of rubber aimed at his cage. . . .

in all fairness it must be said that the 0'Leary team did not turn in one of its best games. The boys were playing in their own rink where they know Ill the angles. but they lust couldn't un-

the first and third periods.

It would have been hard to single anyone out on that. Ace line-up Thursday night. Of course. Bonnie Howatt got the ”Hat Trick" with three goals. and Mclnnis saved as many labelled ones in his end of the ice. but the boys, every one of them. fought like tigers for every inch of ice. and they Just wouldn't be denied. Maurice Cannon. we think. is learning to play defence pretty well. He puts all he has in it, and stopped some dangerous look- ing rushes. Woodside played his best game of the year. and Garth Gay was his old dependable self. ” aide fans as I rule. feel pretty safe with old "scoreless" waiting back of the blueline for the enemy to come barging in.

We presume the Aces will now play the winners of the Milton Hornet-Montague Primrose series for the Island title. If Milton wins. the pattern of last year will repeat itself. with the Aces play- ing 0'Leary first. and Milton next. The Hornets must have I lot of sting when they elimin- ated such I power-packed team as the Parkdale Flyers. We were hoping that the Aces would get

track themselves, particularly in um

another crack at Parkdale. but it looks now as if these two teams. won't meet again. i
