lerank G. Trott, noted harness horse scribe in the Boston Globe writes:-“\'.iuy the Tramp. with a pacing record of 2.02 1-4 and one of 2.04 1-4 trotting, has lived up to his name having raced in 32 states. The veteran campaigners most recent feat was a mile in 2.02 3-4 at Pomona, California. where in hopples for the first time in three years. after having been beaten a nostril in 2.05 on the trot four days previously."

Thousands of Islanders will re- member Guy's great race with Toll Gate 2.00 3-4 in the Free i-‘or All at the Provincial Exhibition, Charlottetown. August, 1934. Toll Gate won in straight heats. time 2063-4, 2.05 3-4, 2.06 1-2, the three fastest heats ever paced over the Charlottetown track up to that time, and the second heat a new truck record. Guy the Tramp was second every heat.

"It at first you don't succeed. try. try again," is evidently the mozro of Mrs. "Red" Hanafin. She had a ticket on Mac Harvester with "Red" up, the first heat and lost. The second heat she took another try with the same result. in the third heat Mac alid "Red" were g winning combination, and Mrs. Hanafln collected a net pro- fit of $460.70. Many friends here will be glad I am sure. that this piece of luck happened to the popular, couple.

Between 40 and 50 horses are stabled at Duiferin Park, Toronto, training for the opening harness meet, November 11th. Races will be held every Saturday afternoon and some weeks twice weekly un- til after New Year's. "It will be tough sledding, however, a5 the track is utllired for the runners dliring the summer and has a heavy covering of clay which be- comes quite soggy and sticky dur- ing the wet weather. At Dufferln they race rain or shine, snow storms or zero weather.

The annual New York horse show, one cf the big society ev- enls of the fall season, opened there last Wednesday with a bril- liant gathering o'f society notables and a. magnificent entry list of show horses, sacidicrs aiid juinp- ers.

Had the pleasure of a hearty handshake from erstwhile race promoter James Pendergast. "Big Jim" fits the Latin adage of mens sana in corpore sano-which means, I believe, a sound mind in a sound body. The reason I en- deavor to use a Latin quotation when I refer to Jim is because he was a former student at Prince of Wales College and there im- blbcd, under the guiding hand of the late Dr. Robertson, a consid- erable quantity of Latin and some knowledge of Greek. I regret that I am not able to remember the Greek words he threw at me in conversation recently.

Edward Benyon, familiarly known as “Ed", at one time trained at Walnut Hall Farm. Lexington, Kentucky, and has been the past twenty-five years in o, similar ca- llflclty in Austria, returned recent- ly lo the United States and isnow employed at l-lopeworthy Farm. Ohio, training the get of All Wor- thy 2.06. sire of Aiwo1'thy 2.15 1-2. formerly owned by Willard Kelly, Southport.

Simcoe Harvester 2.04 1-2, may probably end up as the winner of most races over Canadian twice arounds this season. He is follr years old and sired by Lee Har- vester 2.16 1-4. a rather sensat- ional sire at Manchester Stock Farm. Gait, Ont. Simcoe Harves- ter won- thirteen races and was second in ten others, and paced the fastest heat over an Ontario half-mile track this year-2.04 1-4.

Vic Fleming. noted Canadian reiiisman, has a son Walter, who was assistant to Scp Piiiin this season. Vic's other son assisted his dad with his fine ‘stable of campaigners. Vic has driven eight members oi the two-minute list to their records-Mr. Mcaislyh 1.50 l-i. Calumet Evelyn 1.5a 1-2 and Peter Bong 2.00, all trotters: Billy Direct 1.58, Calumet Evelyn 1.50 l-i. Grattan Bras 1.59 1-2. Dillon Hall 2.00 and Louie Grattan 2.00. Pacers.

ll‘. J. Trantor, known to his friends as '“Jim", who has coh- ducied the Old Glory auction in New York for so many years. is at Present ill in hospital but it is h°i1ed that he will be out in time for the auction the latter part oi this month.

The 40th half-yearly meeting oi the National Trotting Association will be held in New York City. December 7th. As long as the writer can remember. W.H. Goober has been secretary oi the Associ- llicn.

Defence Berth

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire) MONTREAL, Nov. fr-Art Ross and his Boston Bruins hope to break a jinx tomorrow night when they open Montreal's National Hockey League season against Maroons. . , In 1935 Bruins started the ball rolling here against Maroons and lost. Last November they got lhlhss going in a game against Canadiens and lost 5,831“, And they're here again this year with

Mfihflser Ross promising “things will be different." Tomorrows game is the only

opener on the schedule. New York Americans and the Maple Leafs clash in Toronto _but both teams have a game under their bells. Amerks a. 3-0 victory against Chl- Cllso and Leafs a 2-2 draw with Detroit.

Bruins, headed by vjm-ly Eddie Shore, will present much the same lineup here tomorrow as a year ago but Maroons have a numtber

of new faces. Chief of these is on the man- agerial end where Frank (King)

q3lancy will make his bow as a iiockey mentor. Tommy Cook, last year with Cleveland in the Intam League. will centre the front line. while Allan Shields, after a so- j0lll‘I1 with Americans. will return to the defence.

Tommy German, Maroons‘ Pre- sident, said tonight he hoped to sign Des Smith, former Charlotte- town a'i Saint John amateur.

sometime tomorrow, and if so, would use him on defence. Smith is expected to help fill

the gap caused by retirement of Lionel Conacher.

New York Rangers will see league action for the first time Sunday night when they meet the Red Wings in Detroit. Canadiens, last team to start, will play Chi- cago here Tuesday.

3rd Game Of jSeries This Afternoon

The third and what may be the deciding game of the intercolleg- iate football series between Prince of Wales and second Saint Dun- stans takes ‘place this afternoon at the C.A.A.A. grounds at 3.30.

Saints, winners of the second game alter being held to a draw in the opening encounter, need but a draw to cop the honors and last night reports from the Uni- versity were that the team was ready for the whistle.

Prince of Wales defending their title have their backs to the wall at present and must win to stay in the running but every man on the squad last night was confident of halting the march of the op- posing colleglans.

KQUEEN SQUARE .Jc -a.s

A determined hand of Queen Squire rugby warriors carry- ing the play to their opponents every minute of the game yes- terday evened up their inter- scholastic football series by sending the West Kent fifteen down to a. 3-0 defeat in the third game and making I. fourth game necessary before this season's titleholders are decided.

There have been tough gruelling struggles witnessed before in thiii annual series but yesterday's game in the mind of the big crowd of spectators was “tops". Both squads have played better games but never one in which they gave s0 much. Superbly conditioned, fighting hard. and clean, they set a pace that the most hardened athlete would have a. hard time standing up to.

And it was the purple and while clad warriors. defending their title, o that were the better team yester- day. Even the most hardened West Kent root/er had to admit that. Fielding a bunch of forwards that were on top of the ball continually and a backfield that repeatedly made big gains with high-powered kicks the winners carried the play to their opponents continually.

That they only scored once was due to the brilliant defensive dis- play tliat. West Kent furnished. Time lifter time in the first half their lino was threatened but al- ways they would hurl their op- ponents back. Only once did they slip up and the only score of the _game came after the game was thirteen minutes old in the first half "Pop" Doyle stockily built little Q. S. S. halfback falling across the line after racing ten yards with the oval after being on the receiving end of a three-man passing attack. A West Kent for- ward, Lacusta had been just forced out of the play when the counter came. From a scrum twenty-five yards out Albert Wil- son recelvedgthe bail. Trying to buck through he failed but as he was stopped he hurled a short pass to "Brick" Gornliey; Gormley big. rangy half went 15 yards before tossing the oval to his linemate and the fleet-footed Doyle negotiated the rest of the distance just making the line 11s two W. K. s, ta-eklers hauled him down hard. 4 The try for the extra points was lnw and short.

North Shore Hockey Gossip

Old Man Winter is just a- round the corner and pretty soon the demand for hockey sticks will be on. So that means only one thing-hockey. Lester Patrick is not the only one who can have a farm team. The idea is being con- sidered here and it may pan out all right. even though the “wise" ones scoff at it.

Every season the public are pre- sented with the same old 11916111115 with only the odd change. We have a bunch of youngsters in this f circuit who do not have the op- portunity to "get in the game" as they should. If the plan goes through, three teams. drawn from all points would be formed with l an age limit. Tllen when a player is considered good enough he is given a chalice on one of the sen- ior teams. the playel- whose D1369 he takes being dropped to the farm loam. I think it is a capital idea and should be carried out. It would certainly improve our hock- ey here. which is now on a par with the MacLeaii League.
