We were indeed pleased to have an invitation from the genial president of the Nova Scotla Horse Racing ssociation. John H. Stewart, New lasgow, N. S., to attend the annual meeting the afternoon of May 'lth in Good- man's Auditorium. New Glasgow, and the banquet at the Norfolk Hotel that evening. 1t was with regret that we sent a message to M1‘. Stewart that we could not accept. These meetings have been among the most enjoyable we have ever attended and the ban- quets are free and easy affairs at which one does not feel the least hesitation in getting up and speaking. A finer group of horse- men we have never met. and tve are sure that all who attend the afternoon meeting and the even- ing's banquet will have a most enjoyable time. In passing we may say that Mr. Stewart is a well informed horseman with a retentive memory that goes back quite a long yvrly. when he gets on his feet he is a most enter- taining speaker, mover ot a loss for the right phrase. and can add many touches of humour that make his addresses more than pleasing.

We acknowledge with thanks a letter from our esteemed friend S. Thane Belyea, Fredericton. who recently visited Frank L. Noble. former owner of Peter McKinney 206%, and saw a beautiful eight months old colt that. is named Tony Flngo, being sired by Cnll1~ met Bingo 2.04%. dam. Laura Lullwater. by Baron Luliwater. Mr. Noble recently sent his four- yeer-old mare Jezebelle Hanover by Laurel Hanover 1.5915 to Earle Avery to be trained. This mare was formerly named Hannah Hanover but that had to be changed to Jezebelle as there was a mare by the same name regist- ered in the U.S.T.A. She showed up fairly well last year with very little work and friends of Mr. Noble have high hopes that she will be a good money winner this year. incidentally Mr. Noble and his wife and daughter spent the winter in Florida and visited the mile track at Orlando. had a talk with Tommy Berry and watched him work out Poplar Byrd 2.0316, the biggest money winning ($28,- 500.) two-year-old of i046.

Although it will ‘be a non-title affair the Navy team and their followers are just as hot-up over it as if a championship were at stake with the squad holding nightly practice sessions the lest week or so in order to be in top shape for the game.

Visit of the Strands will mark the first time in this writer's memory that a Canadian title- holding squad of basketball play- ers have made their appearance on a. local court. It has been con- ceded ln the past that the brand of game played in other provinces has been far superior to that played here and the matter has been let rest at that.

But the Navy team came along this year t.o win the City League title. and they held no such atti- tude. They had their eyes on the New Brunswick-PEI. title only to have arrangements fall through but, far from satisfied. they con- tactepl the champions’ manage- ment and tonight will attempt to prove that local basketball is far batter than what it is generally thought to be.

6 d- + Il-

How they will fare out against the Cape Bretoncrs is still a mat- ter of much speculation. The team members themselves are confident of giving their opponents quite a tussle and if they do. the boys who arranged the game solely on their own will certainly have giv- en a decided boost to local basket- ball activities.

Realizing that if senior players are to be developed in the future. baseball officials are going to place much emphasis on a junior baseball league this coming sum- mer, and although the actual de- cision hasn't been made it ls cer- tain that at. least a three-team league \vill be in operation.

A suggestion, and we think it is a real good one. came from Bill Reid. Director 6f Physical Fitness recently when -ht~ stated that it might be a good idea to have the league formed along similar lines to the. old City League which lrl- cluded Northcnd Rovers. Eastern Stars and West. Find Anchors.

d- + d-

There is no doubt. ln the minds of anyone that the City League formed on those lines a few years beck was the most SUCCPRSTHl lea- gue ever produced in thr- City. Not only successful from an at- tendance standnolnt but. mighty successful in developing players who up to that time were un-

known. 0 4r 0- d-

There shouldn't be any reason why the same success should not attend the Juniors. Throughout all three sections there are in- numerable "kids" who would be only too glad to get into organiz- ed ball and who need but a little encouragement. for them to show their wares.

It 0- + O .

True. the matter of securing suitable ” . managers and league ofliclels would have to be given much thought. but players who performed in the old City League and who are new on the non-active list would be only teo

glad to give the kids s hand.

paign. Bailey weighed 167, War- rington 1'12 l-2. Both judges gave Bailey five

wllnds. while referee Roy Chisholm called it a. draw - four rounds for each oti the batllers and two even.

1t was e dreary battle until the

the jaw. Warrington got up at the count of nine, crept back cautious- ly. and then unloosed hi; only good rally of the night. He staggered Bailey with e right to the jatw. pounded in other stiff punches and had the crowd on itslfeet.

Bailey's right eye was completely closed after the fight and there was a. mouse under his left, while War- rirlgtcn sported a cut on the bridge of his nose.

Ballley carried the fight most of the way, and the Liverpool veteran took few chances and seldom at- tetrropted to fight back. The Amer- ican lad plied up the palms’ stead- lly until the eighth when he drop- ped the Tiger to the deck with a hard left.

In a six-round semi-final mid- dleweight scrap, Charlie Peck, 152. oi’ Louiaburg. N.S., outpointed Hal- ifaxks Alvin Upsha/w. 156. The cur- tain-raiser saw Frank Dempsey, 185. get. the nod over Steve Con- nolly, l3\'<i»—'both boys were from Halifax. A preliminary bout went via the decision mute to I-labby Hilliard, 131, of Halifax, we’: Jimmy Steevea, also i311, of 'I‘ruro. N5.

Rabbits may be legally hunted

The rabhlt reason formerly was

was nladc primarily to cut down the illegal kill of upland gsmel birds particularly Ruffed grouse,

sidcred that intensive hunting of rabbits had reached such s. stage fill-Bl. the animals required addition- al protection.

O O I Ruffed grouse are easily potted during November and on through the winter. They appear to be well able to look after themselves dur- lng October but once the heavy frosts of November kill the ferns and denudo the woods of excess‘ foliage the grouse are easily seen” and furthermore on sharp frosty days. particularly if they are calm.
