Just now Jim's thoughts, hopes. fears and all that 8005 with the development of a race horse -ln- eluding a. lot of hard work -are centered on a two-year-old, Doctor Budlong.

Iet us hope for Jim's sake that he will prove as good a prospect as another two- ycar-old --l-leatherbell 2.00 1-4 - which Jim broke and gave early training to twelve years ago.

Each leaves a nice yearling colt at the Farm that gives promise of de- veloping into fast trotfers. Both mares were of identical age —24 years.

Montreal Royals Have Great Need To I/Vin Series

TORONTO. Ari-IA 12 —(OP) -11 ever a team nee ed to win, it's Montreal Royals who play Kirkland Lake Blue Devils in the third game of the Eastern Canada senior noc- key finals here tomorrow afternoon. The Blue Devils won the first two games of the best-of-five series.

Royals need a. victory for two reasons -—to escape elimination and to save face. Said to be even strong- er than the Royals’ team that 10st out to Port Arthur in the Allan Cup finals last year, the Montrealers were considered the Q1553 o; the east. They reported to have plenty of ililal-swrlng forwards and a rock. like defence. backed by an ace-high goalkeeper.

'I'lie forwards have picked up only two tallies in two games and nave been held scoreless for nearly 60 minutes at a stretch. The defence has bogged down before the speed of the Northerners.

Only oalie Andy Goldie has showed o advanta e. Goldie has al- lowed six goals i_n t e two games but only after he kicked out something like sixty-six.

Royals raced through an hour's

raetiee at the Ma le Leaf Gardens day and only An y Anton, burly defenceman, was missing. Whether Anton will play tomorrow is not

iown.

Kirkland Lake didn't bother t0 work out. The Blue Devils were eon- tent to conserve their energ for the big drive that would push lhem past gtoyals into the Allan Cup title roun .

Syracuse Chiefs Plan Power For Club This

n; mil Roddy pportl Editor, Syracuse Post Standard

SYRACUSE, N. Y. April 12 — (CH-Syracuse Chief's may not. play ‘em quite as close to the vest tn year, but they'll be bidding for a grand slnni in every game.

Ordinarily a strong defensive team. blessed withfine pitching, the Chiefs this year have declared for a.

polic of power and more power.

Sale of pitcher John Gee to Pitts- burgh and the drafting o1 pitcher Jake Mootyby the Cubs cut the Tribe's big four of 1030 in half but two players already have come from the rirates in the Gee deal, two more are due and in addition live Pittsburgh farm hands have been optioned to Syracuse under a new working agreement.

These men. plus holdove-rs and others purchased during the winter, give Porter the richest vein cf mat- erial any recent Syracuse pilot has been called upon to work.

Playing-coach Danny ‘ra iior, on- ly .300 hitter last year, wi be a- vailable for pinch hitting. Ed Yount looks like the new centre-fielder. Ed Longacre is battling to stay some- where on tlie picket line.

Maury Jllllglllilll, up ironi Jack- son in the Southeastern league, where lie hit .350, has made a, line impression. Bill Norman, the only real veteran of the lot. was hustled and hammered 1115 way to prune consideration.

The lllllCl[I_ involves a battle for three 0f the loui‘ positions. Irv Hall seems to have a strangle-field oii second base. First-baseman Iggy Walters is liaviiig a. fight to stave off the challenge oi lvicrv Connors who fie.ds well and hits - considerably harder than Walters.

Clarence (Ace) Parker has hustl- ed himself into the snortswp 30b, leading holdover Lun Kahny because Ace can hit ‘cm a mi ,

Kahiiy has challenged Jack Juei- ich for the third-base job. But Juel- ich, obtained in the Gee deal has worked off the weight. accumulated in riding the Pirate bench last year, and is expecierh to have the 10D gnclied by opening day, 1f not be- ore.

The catching staff alone seems likely to remain unchanged with Dal Warren and John _ Bottarinl leaving nothing to be desired.

Lefty Ted Klcinliaus, who won 19, and Jack Afslng a lé-game winner, are the lioldovcr mound mainstays. Cy Blanton veteran right iiuiiia .2. counted as a starter. Bill Clemensen will be another staricr if he can curb his tendency to wildness.

Best of the roo 'ie crop have been

Elmer (P0 l Rambert and Les l-llnckle. arty Zachar, Pete An- geli, and Nate Peltcr are sfiil bind- 11g for chances to stick aloii with Art Jones, top relief man o 1939. At least two more hurlers are ex- pected when the Pirates send along another batch of players.

Many of our farmers and breeders are not wealthy men and some of us find it hard enough to make our

payments in the Stake. So we should

eliminate ull UIIHOGESSHK)’ in order to create o, purse woi ii competing for. Our Futurity stake fees are made as small as possible, u- bout $17.00 fol: each entry. \lltl\ fur- ty-three entries in the three classes if fully up, it amounts l0 siiu. Under t_ e new i'u.iiig the American Association reuuire us to pay $301. for the registration of these forty- three ‘entries, while under oui' 0\\ ii Canadian Association it will cost i.'s only $85., a difference oi sills. ici- the privilege of racing under the United States Trotting Asswlittlilll. Wouldn't the saving make a nice al.- dition to the purse? 'l‘ii."-s,ol course, does not take into consideration the big maJority of aged horses iiiat will also be registering. Now zliut the United States and Canada have a close working agreement between them, horses can start uiitler those Associations by holding duplicate papers. As they have until the first of July to rocure their papers, horsemen siould not be in a hurry sending for them. for some of the track managements have uiiucr cou- sideration a change of membership by request of a great man horse- men. ‘It would be well to th nk over this situation and see if it can be remedied and save the $215. on our Futurity entrance alone and bear in mind that the reduced lees in the United States Trotting ASsOClfl- tion have been etxerided to 1940 or.- ly, and hereafter will ‘cost us $5.00 0r foals, $15. for yearlings, and $2.5. for two-year olds and older.
