ITHE-

Jim Fandango-at. well-known lor- mar sports promoter and horse race fan. paid us a visit last week. It was interesting to get his view- point onmany things connected with racing and harness horses in general. It is a pity that Jim gave up promoting race eats as he had a flair in that recticn and

always made them o over with s bang-in other they caught the pubLc imncy. '

It is rumored that Austin Tier- my, well-known caretaker of this city. hse had an attractive ofler to go to the other side to look after one oi the top notch horses

We have never known of such ppecocity at a northern track that early in the season. There m-ust be something about those Cold Cash colts that sets them apart from even the m notch got oi other sires. To h bask to other days. we remember that Cold Cash as a two-year-old set a world's record oi 2.05 over a half-mile track, which we believe still stands.

A new free-ior-aller has been purchased b Ralph L. Berry 0i i-lculton, Ma her-Dr. H. 1.59%. He is at present in Harry Bhort's stz-ble at Columbus. Ohio. but will move to Maine about the middle oi May.

Harry Bvtckes, who was reported out of conunission with an apop-

letic stroke, must have recovered-

completely as we note where he is training stables of horses at Can- iield, Ohio. Stokes. while a tough trainer, is probably the greatest watch" driver in the world. He has the a-bilit 0011100 them t0 the ircnt in a 0st any kind of a crowd and picks up a lot 0i change in that line.

T. V. Hold-away of Houlton. Mane, who attenned the Provin-

c-al Exhibition here three years ago and saw his horse Bud Wen- ge: lower the track recflrd to 2.05% pacing, has two good fast ole-a! pacers which he has lven exerel-ie to himself this wn-ter, Laurel Hmsvgr 1,59% for the free-ior- alls, and Pater Dale 2.03%, eligible to the 2.09 pace.

The are ate in in 2.15 at PLnehirst, N. Cqppina fact Charlie Lacey, who trains ior Homer D Blery, has trained Gratten Ax- worthy 2.03%, Hill-TB PM. 1.58%» Lee Hanover 1.59% and 1M0 01-h" campaigners oi his stable in that notch.

Up north-that is in our coun- try-it will be a week or. two be- iore horses will be able to be mov- ed out oi s. jog, as the tzemendoue snow fall winter held the

If given the 1011B slow preparation oi southern train- ed horses these 2.15 s would DI-ee or trot in 2.10. .1

A fool arrived at Walnut Hall recently that will be of interest to some oi us. It is by Guy‘ Abbey 3.00%. out of Eula H. 2.00 . 0W‘ e1 by ss. wstnsn. Iona‘. hlrflald»

Roy also has a. year-old from the lime dam sired by Calumet Budlong. 2.011%. and expects one by Abbe Worthy 2.04 within the next few weeks. As Roy is a good

Our oorrwpondent is perturbed lgvtheolashindntesoiweatern meetings and suggests that track owners got together as in days of yore and decide on a. schedule oi dates for the season and work agreeably together. Hamilton will hold races as usual but dates have not been decided yet, the propri- etors probabl hoping that a. get- together mee ing can be arranged.

Our New Brunswick correspond- ent writes us that Peter McKin- ney 2.12, the good trotter that B ly Keyes raced a couple oi sea.- sons, is now being wintered by Dannie McNeil], and that he has a. full brother (unnamed) to Addie MoGraw 2.10%. both owned Frank L.

Earle Avery, who has that grand Rey Henley 2.01%, in his stable, has received an invitation from Xenia, Ohio, to bring Ray out there to take part in their summer race meet. They promise a tremendous reception for the former king oi the Ohio twice- arounds. It is not likely that Earle. will accept as there are so many engagements in eastern Canada and Maine that mean mush short- er trips.

Conditions in New Brunswick are similar those prevailing here, a lot oi snow on roads and

and a very late spring. It is not expected that horsemen will get down to serious business until well on in May. medericton track, which is usually clear the middle oi April, was snowed up at last reports.

NEW rll 31 —(CP)— Youthful Bob Fe er gave up only three hits and struck out 10 bat- ters today to give Cleveland 1nd- ians a 5-1 home-iield American league yicgpry over Detroit Tigers. Twenty thousand persons turned out to watch the Tribe in their season's opener.

Barney MoCoekey, Tiger out- fielder, crashed out a home run in tho s for Detroit's only tally. while the Tribe were collecting 11 safeties oii three Detroit pitchers.

Glad to be home in tiheir own park, with its chummy left wall. Boston Red Box picked urp where they left oii last season, and drubbed Philadelphia Athlet- ics 9-2 in their opening game. Jim 888M’. J11, set the A's down with iive hits. one of them was catcher Frank Hays‘ homer over the leit iield wall with Wally Moses aboard in the fourth.

At Washington. the Yankees ex- ploded their batting dynanniie in he midst oi the Senators’ inaug- ural psrty, and walked ofi with a 6-3 victory

Joe Dimaggio and rookie Joe Gallagher concentrated two‘ home runs in the third inning with runners on base to bring 1n iive runs between them. Vernon Gomel went the route for the Yanks, allowing nine hits.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

NEW YORK. April 21 -(CP)- With their hurling ace. Bill Lee effective in the pinches, Chicago Cubs got oii to a good start in de- fence of their National Baseball League championship today, tri- umphing over St. Iouis Cardinals 4-2 at St. Louis.

Home runs by Joe Marty and Stanley Hack contributed to the Oub's victory which inaugurated the Cardinal's home season before 10,000 spectators Joe Medwick drove in both Cardinal runs with a single and a. sacrifice fly.

Boston Bees won their third straight victory by clubbing three New York Giant pltchPrs for 13 hits to take a10-3 decision. Tt would have been a shut-out ior Danny MacFayden if he hadn't weakened in the ninth to let in all the Giant's runs. Four walks forced in runs before John Inn- ning came to the rescue and re- tired the side.

At Philadelphia, Vito Tamulis held the Phillies to five hits. but they made three oi these good ior two runs to tie Brooklyn Dodgers 2-2 in an li-inning duel finally ended by darkness. Pittsburgh and Cincinnati were not. scheduled.

MONTREAL, Apr. 21—»Behind 6-1 midway in the game, Montreal Royals scored six runs in the final iour frames to defeat BaltimOrS Oriole 7-6 at Baltimore today in their second straight international League victory over the flock.

Marvin Duke. who pitched the entire game ior the Royals, was wild in spots but held the Orioles to eight hits and was saved by his mates’ salvo of 11 hits, half of them in the last four stanzas.

At Syracuse. the Chiefs eked out their second win in as many drsys, defeating Toronto Maple IleaiisS-ii. A weird double play saved the duty for Syracuse in the ninth. W1 . one out and s man on iirstlleying hit wheat looked like a single through the box. No infielder could reach it, but the ball hit second base anal bounced into sec- ond baseman Kroner: hands.

Jersey City evened their series with Buffalo Bisons at one-all with s 6-2 victory at home. while at Newark, Rochester Red slugged four Bear pitchers ior 16 hits and a 12-5 victory. It. was the league champions’ second straigltt loss.
