Sudden _ Death Game At The

‘ Forum Today

Charlottetown Canadiens and Moncton Rangers meet at the For- um again this afternoon in an- other sudden death grime to cle- cide the juvenile championship of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. The extra me was for- ced when the two s uiids failed to decide a winner last night as they battled toa 3-1111 draw.

Today's game should be a dandy from bell to bell. Moncton proved to be a smart, heady team capable of capitalizing on scoring chances. They skate both ways and are al- ways in the game fighting hard.

Canadieiis were a little of! form last night in their goal-scoring department but today promise to do lots better and the opinion seems to be they will have to if they are to defeat the Monoton- ions.

The game starts at 1J0 sharp.

In the evening Kensingtoii Aces take on Highfleld Granites in an

‘ exhibition game while after this

Moncton Juveniles play their sec- ond game of the day when they take on Midget Red Wings, nevi‘ battling for the Island title. Today's program winds up the big Bnttlrday specials. so get in on it as ‘it will be your last chance.

P. J. Downey of Worcester, Maul, paid $5.000 for the three year old

pacer Billy Diiect 2.04 1-2. This chap oieaned up the two year old events last year in smart order and took his record over a half-mile track. Heis said to be the beat Na- poleon Direct ever trained.

The rallblrds at Seminole Park. Iongivood, Florida. were startled last: week and thought their watch- es had gone out of kilter when they clocked the last quarter of a 2.22 mile trotted by the two year old filly, The Duchess. The time for the quarters was 29 1-2 secs, about the fastest quarter ever ne- gotialed by a two year old at this season of the year. t

The March- ionesk 1.59 1-4 and Protector 1.59 1-4.

Greyhound 1.57 1-4, the gelded son of Guy Abbey 2.00 3-4. that trotted the fastest mile over a mile track last season and also over a liulf mile track. will be pointed for a new wor 411's record this season in an effort to displace the 1.66 3-4 set by Peter Manning in 1922. Many believe that Bep Palliro pil- ptl can do the trick.

Billy Alabama is v. thoroughbred that has won some races recently and appears to be in a fair way to head some more summaries. His present, owner acquired him for al- most nothing because he had such bad manners. Thinking over pos- sible methods of changing his de- portment, ploughing was tried, and a great improvement was noticed after a few weeks of that kind of exercise. It took nearly two years. however, before Alabama became properly subdued. Now he is per- fection in manners and h‘ii speed is coming hack ton. The writer has known of harneiui horses that have been improved by being worked in the plough.

Another local horseman who has sound ideal lo very high on Guy Kalmuek (2) 2.22 1-4. holder of the record for Maritime bred two Year old trotters. He claims that if Guy gets a proper conditioning early and plenty of training that he will trot in 2.12 or better. "Just look at his breeding." said he. “On the she's side you can't beat the Peter the Grant's, and on the dam‘: side where can you get better?"

It is pleasant to hear our local bred horses praised so highly. We all know what the clover Guy two and three year dd Guy Ann did, and also the Pax volo two year olds that Harry O'Brien and son train- ed and marked last season. From these and others that perhaps have bet-n a little more backward, there undoubtedly exists a wealth of rac- ing material ihut will make iteeli felt in the nuxtt two or three years

Several times in these notes we have mentioned the value of Bin- gen blood in pedigree, and the great loss that was sustained to the in- dustry because of the preiuriicr against the Bingen's some twenty years ago. It now appears that tiie most; likely three year old trotler in the United States is Mr. Wat. (27 2.05, holder of the word's trot- ting record for two year OlClE over a half-mile track.

Hts sire isDillon Axworthy (3.) 1 2.10 1-4 (sire of Loiigset 2.00 1-4,. etc, etc.) and his dam Pniestrinnl by Atiamic Express.

Cox, who was one of the greatest breeders of trotters ever kiiown,, and the owner of Dillon Axworthy (sire of Mr. Watt) had a desperate enmity t0 the Bingcna, and took every opportunity of giving vent to his hatred oi’ the breed.

Now it turm out that the great» est trotter ever sired by Dillon Ax- worthy traces back on the mater- nal side to Bingen. Numerous other instances are cropping up from time to time to show the value of what was once a despised cross. For in- stance, The Duchess, that I refer- red to at the betlinning of these ilotes as having trotted a quarter the other day in 29 1-2 secs, in Florida, and her sister and brother, joint three year old champions. have as their common dam Mar- garet Arion, whose dam Margaret Parrish, is by Vice-Commodore, a son of Blngen.

Hirsch Jacobs. whose training methods (or thoroughbred: was rc- ferred to a few issues ago, had in- sut added to injury during the running meet at: Coral Gables, Florida. He put up a check of $9.- 500 in a claiming race, selecting a horse called Character. Character broke his leg during the rare and had to be dirtien thewtraclt
