TRACK RECORD

Spectators (at the Halifax track on Wednesday night were treat- ed .to one of the fastest trotting and pacing progr s‘- of the sea- son.

Porter, on September 2, 1957, was equalled by Mighty Glib 2.04 1—5, driven by Harley Harri- son. He is owned by Jimmy Giv- en, who is also the owner of Fred Scott. The many friends of Harley Harrison, we are sure, will be glad to see that he has lost none.of his old skill, which was so frequently displayed on Maritime race tracks for.many years.

In Race 2, Falcourt Henomine, driven by George Manger, won in 2.11 3-5 - just one of a second slower than her record, made recently. She is by limo Mine, owned by Dr. George Bish- op. Second to him was Miss Wil- ma Dale (Lavers), Waychamp (J. MacM'Lllan) 3, four other starters.
