It is a safe bet that Paul Bowser, sit-wrestler, now wrestling prom-

oter and harness horse enthus- "iast, never experienced as great a thrill when pinning an opponent. to the mat. as he did when about his four-year-old trotter Tara established a world's record for her age, and a. new three heat record for tiotters at Goshen, N.Y., when she won the Progressive Purse of $1,500 from an all-star field which "ucluded such mighty names as Anfl Child 2.01 l4, Vansandc 2.00 3-4. Holly- rood Phyllis 2.01 1-4, Ankabar 2.01 1-2, Kashmary 2.02 l-4, Mary Reynolds 2.02 1-4. Tara. won in straight heats, time 2.00, 2.01, 2.02.

The American Horse Breeder in its write-up of the above race says: flPernaps the greatest field of fast trotters the world‘ has ever seen started this afternoon in the Progressive Purse in which the four-yenr-old mare Tara, owned by Paul Bowser and driven by Tom Ben"y~—\\'lio still ought to be in a hospital instead of a sulky seat- broke two world's race records. Thirteen trotters with records better than 2.0-1 turned for the word.

When the dust had settled Tara was the world's champion four- year~old of any sex and had the world's three heat race record re- vised in the books to read 2.00, 2.01, 2.02. Grizzled veterans of the Grand Circuit seemed unanimous that it was the greatest trotting race in history. Paul Bowser said it repaid him for every dollar he ever spent on horses."

‘The sale of Abner r. Clegg 2.04%

Sep Palin accomplished a rath- er unique feat when he drove the three-year-old trotter Greyhound in 2.00 and the same afternoon the pacer Cardinal Prince in 1.59 3-4. We do not remember of any reins- man having placed a trotter and pacer in the two minute list on the same afternoon, although the wonderful Tommy Murphy may have clone so.

Guy the Tramp was again in the limelight as the world's champion double-gaited perform- er over a half-mile track by reason of ‘winning the first heat of the 2.14 Trot in 2.05 3-4 and the third heat in 2.07. It is just a year ago since he was chasing Toll Gate around the Charlottetown track.

Other creditable performances was the winning of the first heat of the Frec-for-All Pace by Del Whitney 2.00 1-4 in 2.04 1-2, Bud Wenger whining the second and third heats in 2.06 and 2.07. Both horses received their racing edu- cation in Canada, Bud Wenger be- ing bred in Ontario but now own- ed in the U.S A., while Del Whit- ney is owned by a Montreal horseman.

The. four pacers referred to in the above are among the best. in their classes in America, but even at that the track must be surpris- ingly fast for such time to be hung up.

The Prince Edward Island Ham- 955 31101118 Association met. Thursday and opened the tenders from tracks for the privilege of putting on the annual futurity races. The tender of the Charlotte- town Driving Park and Provincial Exhibition Association being the highest was accepted. and the races for two-year-olds. three-year-olds and four-ycar-olds eligible to these futurities will be held on Wednes- day afternoon, September 25th. 1t was the original intention to hold the races on the 18th of Septem- ber. but as the Alberton Exhibition will be on that date the latcr date was decided upon.

In this connection the Secretary wishes to point out to owners of futurity candidates that the last day for making payments on the stakes is Tuesday next, September 3rd. ‘

We were surprised to note that Calumet Devil 2.08 3-4 won from Betty S. 2.07 at St. Stephen on Thursday. It was a crackerjack of a race and very close, but the Devil horse had just a little bit. of edge on Alexander's mare. We looked up his racing career in 1934 and found that he started in eleven events and was the winner of six. This season he has been in top form and looks like one of the but pacer; in sight eligible to his elm. It should be a great battle when he hooks up with Abner T. Clegg and Betty S. at Fredericton.
