Joe started driving as g boy o; 16. some seventeen years ago and b" iieflliiiy improved until now he is in a crass by himself and when ‘he gets up behind a horse with even only a fair chance to win, that horse becomes the "fav- orite" with the race goers. Per- haps the best illustration of his uncanny ab-lity was shown with MiiKiliv Cilsii 2.02 on Thursday afternoon. '1nat fast but erratic pacer nad finished a bad fifth in a field of six the first heat. The next mile Joe was put up and without the slightest fuss. Just simply a turn of the wrists, Mc- Klyo Cash was on his way in fifth position, grabbing the pole befon the second turn had been reached and winning the mile in 2.07 1-5. He also wor the third heat and race in 2.01 4-5. the fastest two miles stepped in the Maritimes this season, the average being 2.07

Among the horses he will race in the new environment will be Tip Abbe 205%. if iniurles're- reived in an accident on Thursday permit; Traffic Grattan 2.10%; Money Maker 2.10%; Lee's Night- mare 2.13%; Mac Flngo 2.16i.~1.,and prssibly one or two others. No doubt when he becomes acquainted with the change of technique and driving tactics used on the Am- erican speedways he will, like drivers Vic Flemming, Roy Craig and other Canadians who have made good in the USA, become a favorite with owners and fans.
