(By The Canadian Press) TORONTO. Dec. 15-Don't envy that winning racehorse owner too , much. He may not be making as much money asyou think.

Charlie Hemstead, top money- winning owner around the Incorp- orated Canadian Racing Associat- ion circuit, says his nags earned him approximately $35,000 this year. But to that sum he had to add another $7,000 to come out bven.

“Anybody who runs a big stable has to wind up a loser, unless he comes up with a Citation or Sty- mie," he said. “Big stables are not money-making propositions. They're for fun."

Hcnlstead said that if you run a horse for a purse of $2,500 added, first money is about $2.100. The

amateur hockey clubs took a leaf out of the professionals’ book and started a king-size furore in On- tarlo sport circles today when they announced a deal involving six players and $5,000 cash. Four of the players and the greenbacks went to Sfratford In- dlans, lust-place club in the On- tarlo Hockey Association's senior B group. Kitchener-Waterloo Flying Dutchmen shelled out the WOTKS for Indians’ two top-scoring for- wards-Mickey Roth and Billy Flick. League offieiall laid the deal was legal enough. coming SI hours be- fore the O.H.A.'s deadline for trad- ing between senior and junior A clubs. But officials of Toronto Marlboros, currently battling the Dutchmen for leadership of the five-team group, did a little holler- ing. Harold Ballard, president and general manager of the Toronto club, accused the two clubs of be- ing "ln cahoots" to head off the pavlverful Dukes from the 0.H.A.. e. The Kitchener-Stratford shuffle was only one of a number of last- mlnute deals. The wires were hum- ming right up to the midnight deadline as managers around the senior A and junior A circuits made last-minute efforts to bolster their clubs. League officials said late today they were so busy sorting out the transfers that they wouldn't be able to announce all details until tomorrow.

In view-of previous reports that

Sheppard, Culver and MacDonald were lo turn out with the Sum- merslde All-Stars in Tuesday nights Oity League game against P.W.C., tans may be wondering wily the boys didn't appear on the lineup. The answer ls a simple one, howQr.

It appears that‘ the Bummersldc “Kid Line" of Oatway, Grady and Gay had gone i0 the Mainland to seek a berth with one of the Jun- ior tellms over (here, and that the Charlottetown boys (were going to replace them on the lineup on the condition that the original three players did not return. The boys returned in time for Tuesday's game, honvcver. and according to the agreed arrangement, took their rightful positions on tho lineup and the services of Carver, Sheppard and lviacDonald were not required.

“If Lach were not such a dur- able player, one could view the rnishalp from this statement with considerable alarm. He is, how- ever, such a stout flbred fellow that he will come back with all his old energy. but the absence of his presence for acme weeks is bound to have a devitalizing effect.
