"Getting back to our friend Harry, the Maritimes most famous track builder. we find that he has ten potential race horses in his stable, nearly all by Simcoe l-Inr- vester 2.04 1-4. Several of them are out of Rose Marie of the fam- ous Bill L. line. They are young, good-looking, well formed and llurry has great faith in them as possible champions. He and Carl Weeks have purchaped Moby Dick, a Harvester colt from Jerry Keeic. "Fhey set great store by him. Harry is a busy mun. l-le has to keep go- ing as help is scarce and he hasn't time to be sick or sore. Forest Phillips is the man most respon- sible for the new track at O'Leary' which was laid out by Harry. He is the proud owner of Shy Ann 2nd, that raced so successfully thc past season. Marne Kennedy oi O'Leary has traded Twilight Melody for Minute Minder. with Cari Weeks of Alberton. Bud the Tramp 2.18 3-4 by Calumet Budiong. darn ‘Pi-amp Across by Tramp Fast, is now owned by Pat Callaghan oi Mimminigash. lie won the four- year-oid futurity at Charlottetown in 1945 and was then owned by Well McNeill. He met with en acci- dent in 1946, but after being pur- chased by Mr. Callaghan and undergoing a course of sea-bathing and home treatment won two races in Tignish and one in O'Leary last summer and appears like a good bet in the 2.28 class. And 1 guess I will wind up with Lee's Niglit- mare 210 1-5-—one of the season's best performers, owned by James O'Brien, Eimsdaie. I understand she is due to foal next spring."

Ernie Robin ol‘ 143 Euston St., has very kindly given us a sketch of his stay of five weeks as a guest of the Fraser Hotel at For- est, Ont., where he was working for the Dominion Department of Agriculture inspecting all! out oi storage for the British Ministry of Food. . . ."The town of Forest ll about 9O miles north of Windsoi and about seven miles from Lake Huron and has a population of about 2.000 people. The Fraser Hotel ls owned and operated by Mr. Wilfred Fraser, eon of Lindy Fraser, owner of the famous pacer Dr. Stanton 1.58.

"Wilfred Fraser owns a string oi three horses which includes a three-year-old full sister to Dr. Stanton. Mr. Fraser Sr., appears about fifteen years younger than he really is and it is most interest- ing to learn about his exploits from coast to coast at nearly every famous race track in America. You can well realize the drama. excite- m e n t, disappointments a n d triumphs that make up his every- day life from January to October Ha told us that he was offered $55,000 for Dr. Stanton by the owner of the world's champion trotter who would like to have both horses in his stable. It was refused, Mt". Fraser explaining that he intends to keep the Doctor as long as he lives.

"Surrounding Forest are such well known places as Sarnia, St. Thomas, Strathroy and Park Hill. thc latter is the home of Charlie Barrett and it was there that Grattan Royal sired several two- mlnute pacers including the great- est of them all, Grattan Bars 1.5.’). By the way Mr. Fraser developed many Grattans they raced to very low records and were among the biggest money winners.

"Everyone talks horse in these parts and it is interesting to hear o! all the great trotterr and paceis that were brad, trained and raced here. Talking to people in Forest they find it hard to believe that Old _Home Week in Charlottetown could draw such big crowds of hur- ness racing fans, but these facts were accepted when the news- paper reports from home were passed around and read. Mr. Wil- fred Fraser is a veteran of World War II and was one of the heroes at Dieppe, he was captured and held prisoner of the Nazis for a long time. When I talked to Mr. and Mrs. Fraser they immediately asked if I knew you, whom they considered a fine horseman and sportsman. They asked to be rc- membcred to you and look forward to renewing old acquaintance."

ERCULOSIS SEAL SALE OPENS MONDAY, NOV. 22in

The death rate from Tuberculosis is higher in our Province than in the rest of Canada.

X-Ray is the most important factor in finding Tuberculosis.

Our objective is to have our Mobile X-Ray Unit x-ray everyone in the Province once every two years.

To provide such an x-ray service to the whole population is costly and requires generous support on the part of every citizen.

but week I made a check on how the Huns came through whilst on a trip in the Annandaie section 0d King's County. One farmer on the back road stated: ‘There were tiwenty 0n my farm. 1 shot two a fortnight ago but eighteen are still around — I saw them a few days ago". Another reported: “There's a covey of six- teen around Saviliels swamp. I see than every law days. None oi them were shot“. Another iaiixier at Little Pond reported: “A covey of twenty-two hung out in the Caipe fields all fall. Nobody found thum".

This general glbuation regard- ing Hun envoys that have escaped the hunters applies to other dis- tricts apart from Annaiidaie. 1 know one covey of 1a birds that are now to be found almost arith- in the City limits.

On the last day. of‘ the season on l-llins (Saliurdayh, I had occasion to visit the Hampton and Crap- aud districts. I took along a Ger- man short haired pointer in case I had an opportunity for a last try at the partridge. On my jour- ney homeward 1 stopped the car on the hill ahove Clyde River bridge. A stubble field nestled on a point beside the river interested me. It was flanked by a sedgey marsh and a turnip patch. It looked birdy and I thought it was a good opportunity to let the Pointer stretch his legs.

The t/wo teams met for the first time one week ago Friday gt Summer-side, iwihen the Millionaires ekcd out a slim victory by a score of 47-45,, in e wide open encoun. tar, and if this previous meeting has any bearing on the brand of game that will be played tonight, it should be an action-packed af- fair, and it is anybody’; guess es to who will oorne out, on top.

The following are t-he lineups for tonight's game: -

A11 coveys are not bhat cute. Farmers have reported oovey; that were wiped out almost to a bird. One runs awose dumb cov. eys Once in a. while. One will find them in the some field at the same time each day. when ﬂush. ed, they'll fly into an adjoining field. or the second field away at farthest, and give the hunter an. other chance and maybe several chances.

A lot depends on the cock bird at the head of a Hun oovey u t4; how far the oovey will get in the figiht for survival. Thank good- ness there are lets or ooveys with enough intelligence to outwit both dogs and hunters. This is no wllﬂify for Cline birds that cen- not look out for themselves.
