The hulk of the records mentioned above were taken in 1951. Expect- ed to top all previous records for at Standard Bred stallion at auction is Tar Heel 3. 1.57 2A3. It is be- lleved that he can next year lower Billy Direct's 1.55 world's pacin: record. He is by Volomite and should make a great sire.

Another wiorldbmchaniplon on a half-mile track will be sold and is staked in 5175.000 worth of stakes

is Hardy Hanover 2, 2.04 (V5. 2, 2.05 h.m.t. Quite a number of Marltimers will attend the Har-

risburg sale and will no doubt not return empty handed. One thing we have noticed in connection with the sale is the great number of yearlings that are being offered. We do not have the number but believe it will be over 500. Last year's catalogue was the largest ever issued and we can bet that this year's will be an even larger one.

Next week. Oct. 30-31. the In- dianapolis Speed sale with Sep Palin as manager, will be held at Indianapolis. Indiana. A wonder- ful line of yearlings from some of the best farms in the world is be- ing offered as well as many re- cord trotters and paccrs. If we had the opportunity of attending a sale we would like to go to In- dianapolis because we are under the impression that some speed bargains can be picked up there. Still another sale that will be held this month is the complete dis- rersal of the Blue. Heather Farm. owned by R. E. MacKonzie. Stal- lions. brood mares and ycarlings uill go on the block and it prob- ably means the retirement from racing of Mr. lvfacKenzie who has been a great patron of the sport.

imperial Hanover. the yearling that brought. the highest price in the history of the Standard Bred. when sold at Harrisburg. Pa.. two years ago for s72.000 to a wealthy nil man named McIntyre. has been re-sold to Henry E. Warwick of Westfield. Ind. for S5000. He was trained as a two-year-old but' did not go to the races and this sea- son as a three-year-old took a time record of better than 2.04 but did not measure up when raced in the Hambletonlan and other stak- es. The new owner has placed him in the stable of Sep Palin who was one of the men who forced the price up on the colt when he was auctioned. Commenting on the sale A very canny reinsman states that the wily Hoosier rcinsman may not be sure at present just what the gold-plated yearling of 1949 is go- ing to do but it is a cinch that he will make him do something.

Johnny Simpson who will take over the management of Hanover Shoe Farm yearlings Ind racing stable early in November. has hung

up s new money-winning record for a single year and has also

nowu THE BACK srnsrcn

passed his own 1950 record in winning heats. His total take this year is s322.529.92 and he has been first to the wire in 116 heats, live more than last year. Following him in the dollar department is Billy Houghton with 3180.000 and in third place is Del Millcr with slfi7.- 000. The latest information is that second in winning heats is the mid-west. trainer W. N. McMi1leri with 80 victories to Oct. 1st. He has been racing horses for many years but this is the first time we have seen him so near the top.

Among the yearlings that will be sold at the Harrisburg sale are Rose Fingo, Jeanie Flngo and Clever Flngo. large and beautifully developed youngsters that should bring a good price. There will also be several of the get of Watcliim 2.06 sold there. Calumet Fingo's get have been racing exceptionally well this season, heading summar- ies at Roosevelt. Yonkers an-:1 sev- eral other raceuays. At Yonkers last. week Gratian Fingo won n. 32.000 iivo-ycar-old pace in 2.11 2 5 and second to him was Jollity Girl by Joiliiy. owned and driven by Bob Ryan; Buddy Fingo (Har- vey) was third: five other starters. Bob also won the Class B. Pace, purse 52,000. with Colonel Dan by Calumet Fingo in 2.08 36.

There is a very good photo in The Harness Horse of Early Dawn. one of the few harness horses with .1 feminine trainer, after winning the featured 6th race Tuesday night at Yonkers Raceway for a 52.500 pur:-e, driven by Henry Myott. Early Dawn's trainer is Miss Hilda Hcydt and the live- year-old daughter of Playdale 2.041; is owned by Almak Farm of Irvington. NJ. Early Dawn out her mark to 2.05 Sui and boosted lit-r carnings to 510,317.50 for the season.

Racing started at I-lollvwood Park. California. on Oct. 6th and every week since that date new horses have been coming in and by the first of November or a little later they cxpcct to have suffic- ient to fill all clases advertised and to give exceptionally good rac- ing. So far we have not noticed where Joe O'Brien has started; he probably is just getting nicely set- tlcd there. Already some fast time has been made. The four-year-old pacer Mighty Sun took a record of 1.59 in winiilng the 3.3.000 Pasa- dena Face.

The trotter Demon Hanover 1.59 45. the biggest money win- ning harness horse in training with over 5183.000 to his credit. had to be withdrawn recently at Yonkers Raceway because of a severe inflammation of the sus- pensary ligament of the right hind

leg. Among his triumphs were the 1948 Hambletonian. the 1949 Two Mile Trot. purse s5o.ooo. and this

year's 525.000 American Trotting Championship.

Mrs. Jamcs Poulton. Charlotte- town. has sold the pacer Tony Bud by Oroln, to Rollie Wood. who re- sold him to Don McAu1ay of Pugwash. N.S. Don also bought Kentucky Derby from Rollie. Ken- tucky Derby should be an ideal horse for the ice race meets as he was timed quarters in 291.; sec"- onds locally over the ice last sea- son and his monncrs were perfect. It was Don who sold Peter Bud- lting 2.09 IVS to parties in Maine for ice racing and he made good in the Pine Tree State. winnlnu against allcomcrs. even those brought from outside. Just wheth- er the Inter-Provincial ice races which were promoted by Jack Scott in Moncton last February will be held this year is a moot question but if so it would be a nice thing to have them here pro- viding we have ice racing facili- tics-which we usually do. last year being an exception.

The pacer Early Dawn which we mentioned as having taken a new iccord at Yonkers Raceway of 203 315. hold the limelight again this week by winning the s3,000 Pocantico Pace. The time was 2.06 -U5. We remember quite well when Ted Grant came here 111 the winter of 1943 and mentioned that he wanted to buy Dude Potemp- k1n's Playdale iilly. He made the trip to Fortune and completed the deal but before he left Charlotte- town a tremendous snow storm came on which delayed his de- parture and even then many of us doubted that he would be able to get through to Maine by truck there was such a downfall. How- ever. he did. and certainly bought a real one as the daughter of Playdale 2.04'.!.- and Dude Potemp- kin 2071'. has been one of the most outstanding pacing mares ever developed here.

Of course she has license to be good. Her sire Playdale was by Scotland and his dam was Eliza- beth Rives by Guy Axworthy 2.08-'3'. and his second dam was the fam- ous race more Mabel Track 2.01-ll by Peter the Great 2.07'i. Mabel Trask and st. Frisco were the too trotters on the Grand Circuit in theiyeors 1915-16. etc. at. Frisco

By Reason

Tonight will round out the sec- ond most disastrous week that the Charlottetown Islanders have suf- fered since they re-entered the top flight Maritime hockey company is year ago. The first most disastrous seven days was last week when the team dropped four games. The Is- l-inders can avert a complete rep- etition of last week by a win ta- iii-ght at Moncton and never was a win as urgently needed as one is now.

was the seventh straight for the team and with three more they will equal last year's record of ten wins in reverse. One thing that can be said. how- ever is that while the Islanders are in the deepest doldriims they are not in them alone. The once great Sydney Millionaires. who ruled the Marltimes for years are in second last place five points above the local team while the Halifax sports- writers and fans are envisioning a last place team in the present lineup of their St Mary's.

. .

so far lhe islanders have shown themselves to be a team that can provide a good game for the fans but can't quite win or tie'onc. In all but two of their seven game: they have outshot their opponents while scoring only half the num- ber of goals. In seven games they have scored only 14 goals while they have been scored on 28 times. Maybe if they could win one they might start to roll but unless that win comes soon those who pay to see the play will be demanding ac- tion and explanations.

. . .

The St. Dunstan's Univcrslly Senior football team will attempt to do this afternoon what another 5. D. U. team did three years ago today less one week. Back in 1948 a St. Dunst.an's team bowled over a Mount Allison University squad to win their first N. B.-P. E. I. intercollegiate football title. The Saints won that. game in the dying seconds of the last -half on a brilliant half line run by Johnny Cash who graduated fi'om the College last. spring. The staging of today's game is practically the same with the Saints and the Mounties needing only the win to

ensure either of them the two- province championship. Only ih: location is different with the

-game this afternoon being played in Sackville. . The Saints will be missing one regular when they go on the field and that. will be foi-ward Clarence MacDonald. frhelr number one forward "Copy" Callaghan. who missed Wednesday's game with U. N. B. on account of a cut knee. will he in action today along with Kenny MacDonald. fl halfiiner. The two teams played to a. score- less draw here in the opening of the Intercollegiate series and both teams have improved it great deal since then. Given finc weather. howcvcr. supporters of the Saints believe that their team can win back the title this afternoon. 0 l I

Judging by the results of the games the Saints. have played. the Mounties should not score many points on trys. in three Inter- collegiate gaincs and an Island senior match against the Abbies the Saints line has not been cross- cd. Only four points have been scored against them and all were compiled on penalty kicks. The Saints on the other hand have scored tcn points. not a very true

indication of the S. D. U. of- fensive power.

At Memorial rieili this after- noon the Abbies will meet the

Halifax Wanderers in an exhibi- tion giimc which will serve as I1 lune-up for the local team's ser- les with the Saint John Marin- El'8- A biz. rugged team. the Ab- bies have their sights set on the McCurdy Cup and by the way they have played in their three games against Shearwatcr, Mount A. and S.D.U. they should give any rugby team in the Maritlmes quite a game. 0 I Q I

”The best thing that ever hap- pened to film," stated the res- taurant proprietor as he turned off the Joe Louis-Rocky Mhrclono fight after the aging Louis had suffered his second knockout in his fabulous career. For Louis it surely means the end of the road and the end of the come- back that the once feared Brown Bomber hoped would bring back the heavyweight rrown.

And now Loull can either quit the ring or spend his time in second rate fight club: fighting second rate opponents. But what- ever his choice the ending has been A sad one for the man who ten years ago could finish nearly all his opponents In one round. It is A story too often repeated in sport of men in their thirtlel who were once national home: and who fade into obscurity with nothing but memorial and empty pocket books.

Defeat

Charlottetown 5 - 2

SAINT JOHN. N.B., Oct. 26 -- Jack Meldrum did the hat trick for Saint John Beavers tonight as the loop leaders broke a 2-2 tie with three goals in the last period and beat Charlotte- town Islanders 5-2.

The win gave Beavers a three- point lead over the idle Glace Bay Miners. Two points lower. and tiedlfor third place in the Mari- time Major Hockey League. are Halifax St. Mary's and Moncton Hawks. Charlottetown has lost all their seven games to date.

Dusty Blair and Johnny Arun- dei were the other Saint John

scorers. Red Favcro and Willie Marshall tallied for Charlotte- flown.

Islanders outplayed Saint John in the first period but Beavers enjoyed a good margin thereaf- ter. The homesters knotted the count at 2-2 before nine minutes. of the second period after trailing -by two goals.

Favero. tipping the puck home from a far side. netted the only goal of the first period in a play with Bucko Trainor and Hub Beaudry.

Islanders broke up most Saint John plays in centre the can-to. Both goalies - Phil Hughes and the visiting Hal Gor- don made exceptionally good saves on close in shots.

Beavers Nicolle, tripped by Marcel Clements at 14.25. suffered a cut forehead and was out of ac- tion until he returned for one play late in the second period.

Roughness during the middle session resulted in eight minor penalties. Mars-hall made it 2-0 for Charlottetown when Saint John's Howie Lee, in tlearlflg. laid the rubber on Marshall's st-ick. Each team was 3 man short.

Johnny Dutchak of Charlotte-

town was off as Meldrum opened the Saint John scoring on a fast

ice during i

and Airundei. Blair back-handed the equalizer before the half way mark of the period. Ed Mulligan assisted. Both teams again were shorthandcd.

Meldrum made sure of victory wluh his brace in the final stanza. His second goal of the night was A low. hard shot on a. passout from Arundel. A short passing play in front of the net ended in Saint John's fifth tally and Arun- dcl soloed with a screened shot. Arundel picked up three scoring points and Ubriaco two.

St. Marys Come To Life, Down Millionaires 3 - 1

SYDNEY. N.S.. Oct. 26 - 1CP) - Halifax St. Mary's, spurred by release threats and sour press com- ment, came to life tonight to whip Sydney Millionaires 3-1 and end their two-game losing streak

Millionaires just didn't have it. They bottled all their attack in the first period and then lost their

combination plays and scoring punch. Sydney goalkeeper Nick Pid-

sodny. who starred in two road games this week. made no stops in the first frame. Halifax's Larry Frechette turned aside 11.

The Haligonians batted a per- fect 1.000 for the period however. sinking the only shot they directed on the Sydney net. Pete Leswlck got that one on a short backhand after Stan Wareckl dug the puck out of the backboards behind Pid- sodny.

The goal came four minutes af- ter Don Whaien tipped Tom Rock- ey's hliieline shot for Sydney's first and only goal.

Marking their men well and play- ing the breaks. st. Mary's gave Plrlsodny a rough ride in the early minutes of the second period with the Leswick-Wareckl-Poitras line launcl-ling an all-out attack.

Saints struck again at 6:28 of the third period when Gordie Pear- son pushed a long pass to Andy Brown. who tipped the puck in with Sydney defenceman Joe Lev-

Wreck Sees Glace Bay Team To Beat

MONCTON. N. B.. Oct. (CF)--Coach Johnny Horeck of Moncton Hawks peered into the Maritime Major Hockey League crystal ball today and came up with the conclusion that Glace Bay Miners are the team to beat in the Maritime circuit.

Although Hawks have scored two of their four victories against Miners. Horeck said Bud Poile's Miners will be the team to heat before the 00-game schedule has ended.

"They have at big, fut, rugged club, and that's the kind of A team that will last through this kind of a schedule." he said.

He declined to speculate on how Hawks would fare in the race for the league title, but pointed to the fact that his club had beaten Miners twice as an

Indication of what can be ex- pected. Horeck said he believed the

spurt which has carried Saint John Heaven to the top of the league in the first two weeks of play would slow down.

Ducks. Huns and pheasants have their place in a. hunter's calendar but when the goose season opens and the big black and white honk- crs are legal targets all other spe- cies of game birds have to take a back seat. It is the dream of every hunter. who has never shot a wild goose, to some day see one of these beautiful game birds crum- pie in midalr at his shot and to proudly present his prize to his admiring better half. When this happens he can stick out his chest and say: "I'm a real hunter now." The goose season opened on Thursday. October 13th. This col-

umnist has lived through many opening days but never again do I expect to experience the thrill

that was my lot on October 18th. 1951. On that memorable morning I saw more geese come to a field

By JACK HAND

NEW YORK. Oct. 26 - (AP) - Joe Louis sprawled at the end of the glory road tonight - a. stun- ning technical knockout victim of the crunching flats of savage Rocky Marciano. slugging son of a Brock- ton, Mass. shoemaker in 2:36 of the eighth round at Madison square Garden.

Referee Ruby Goldsteln never bothered to count when a shinning left hook and right to the jaw dumped the once great Brown Bomber on the ring apron in help- less condition. The 37-year-old vet had just got up from an eight- count knockdown when the end came.

While s near capacity crowd rocked and rolled with the im- pact of this sensational upset. Louis stretched on his back out for sev- eral seconds.

The Marciano crowd from New England swarmed to ringside in wild-eyed exuberance at the suc- cess of their favorite son. a 815 to 5 underdog.

A crowd of 17.241 paid a gross of 3152.845 to see the exciting bout. Another 8185.000 came from the sale of the radio and television rights.

Stopped for the second time in his glorious 17-year career and for the first time since Max Schmel- lng knocked him out in Yankee Stadium Jime 19. 1936. Louis was a badly bcatcn shadow of his old self. Probably the largest crowd ever to see a fight watched along the links of n coast-to-cnnst. tele-

find in less time than I ever saw in the past or hope to see again. It was the sort of set-up one doesn't expect to see geese patron- ize but wildgeese do some odd things at times. In short geese generally do the unexpected. The field in question was roughly six It was

at Summerside and then home- ward hound ii! the afternoon I did a bit of scouting. I managed to pin-point the immediate area where a big flight of geese were feeding but failed to spot the exact. spot although I did find a number of stubble fields they had been frequenting within days. Some- times this is not good enough Geese have a habit of switching location every few days.

The Kid and two hunting com- panions took over on Wednesday niornlng at daybreak and they really put the finger on the right field. The scouting expedition is a story in itself. At 4.00 AM. in the morning our party of four were on the move. Headlights bat- tled a wall of fog until we reached the higher ground of the Promised

Land. Long before daylight we threaded a farmer's torturous lane that led a mile back into the

hinterland and opened and closed several gates.

Nearing our objective the trail led across some grasland. In the glare of the headlights I could see two evenly spaced black ribbons in the dew. "Boys". I remarked, "are you sure no one but yoiirselves knows about this field? Methinks 9. car has gone this way ahead of us". ”Oh no." came the chorus. "we made those tracks yesterday aftemoon'. I made no comme t but thouimt to myself: "Time will tell". sure enough at the begin- ning of the trail into the hard- woods a truck was nicely camou- flaged....we had company.

0 O 0

My companions looked rather downcast. Two "rigs" in one field can spoil everything unless both groups of hunters play the game with each other. I spoke: "Before we set out the decoys I'll walk awund the field and see where the opposing 'Rlg' is located." Daylight was still a long way off.

All three officials had Marclmm on top going into the eighth round Referee Ruby Goldstein had it 4-2-1. Judge Joe Azneiio 5-2 mg judge Harold Barnes 4-3. The AP card also had it 4-2-1. All gm Louis the fourth and fifth. Barnrs also gave him the third and Gold. stein called that even.
