Th0 118i; 0! 119W 2.10 pacer-g {m- 1882 shows a. total of 21B of these select performers. A truly imposing showing for a season in which rae_ ing activities had been materially reduced 0n walrus it u found that nearly fifty per cent of these speed merchants were what could be properly classed as young mater- ial, there being 10 two year Olds, 36 three year olds and 49 four year ~lds.

Narrowing the speed factor still further we find that there were 60 pacers which earned records of 2-0716 and faster. In this connec- tion it is of special interest to point to the fact that among this number are 19 which gained positions in the 2.05 list and 13 held no record of any nature prior to 1932, being what is known as green performers.

The three leaders in the list, that is the three horses which have tak- en the fastest records of the 218 are world's champions and we will give some particulars regarding each. Dick Reynolds pacing 2.01%. trotting 2.05%, is the world's dou-

' ble gaiicd champion stallion. He is

by that grand performer, the horse that time forgot, Single G. 1.58%. Dick is now taking his 1933 prepar- atory training at Longwood, Florida, in the stable of Ben White and is being pointed for the two minute list.

John Judy (3) 2.01%, holds the world's record for three year old geldings. He is a son of Peter Scott 2.05 and Miss Anna J. by General Watts (8) 2.06%. and is now the property as mentioned last week, o1 H. Stacey flmith, Newark, N. J. and is in the stable of Will Hudson, of Plnehurst, N. C.

John Judy came to his speed very rapidly last season and was not giv- en a. very intensive course oi‘ train-

ing, so it seems only rcasonaue to

expect wonderful things from him In 1933. He is both rupld and smooth gaited and providing he has a racing head should gut a record better than two minutes this year.

His Majesty i2) 2.02 by Abbcdaln 2.01%, dam of Walter Direct 2.0501. was given his record at Indianapolis Sept. 7. His is n record for two year olds in a race.

Others of the 2.18 which have cs- tabllshed nclv records in various di- visions aro Calumet Dubuqué (2) 2.04%, champion two year old geld- ing. Lydia Knight (ti) 2.0511, cham- pion thrcc year old pacing filly on a half mile track, and Plucky Scott (2) 2.08, champion two year old rac- ing filly. Mary ll‘. A'1W01'tl1i' (2) 2.04% ranks as champion two year old filly against time. The seven

mentioned above represent seven _

new stars in the world's horse championship firmament.

Ed. McGratll, one of the lending trainers of Pennsylvania for many years, died very suddenly last wcck while attending a gatllerlnl; 11¢ NM‘ areth, Pa. Ed will be remembered by P.

Bronx, bay gelding llllle 3'00“ 01d by Bclwin 2.06% keeps constantly in the limelight. Several years ago Bronx was considered an absolute failure as he would refuse to score

track. However, a man with more than ordinary knowledge of 1101505 took him m hand, tied his lcllfi tn- gether and left him where he had thrown himself down, for several hours. lAftcr taking the usual res- pite of former workout days, Bronx decided it was time to Ect up. but

not move a muscle. This made him very indignant and he renewed his exertions, but without avail. Fin- ally after two hours of cflort with- out results, his trainer-driver came along and released him. There was never any more trouble with Bronx. He was a horse with brains and saw the futility of resistance. That year he became the greatest stake trotter in America over half mile tracks and every year since has done some- thing to keep himself in the lime- light.

track record from 2.03% to 2.02%.

Lulla Volo 2.15 by The Senator (3) 2.03141, and one of the last foals of that noted Nervolo Belle, is now on the farm of G. L. Knight, Nich- olsville, Ky., where her famous dam first saw the light of day in 1906. She was purchased in the last Ind- ianapolis sale by Henry Knight of Chicago as a present for his father, because of sentimental reasons and secondly because he believed her destined to achieve high honors as a matron.

The Henry Knight referred to above ls the same gentleman that purchased Mr. McElwyn, 1.58% and the other horse holdings of the late W. H. L. McCourtie.

Nervolo Belle, dam of Lulla Volo 2.15, has proven a most remarkable producer. She has given the horse industry various champions and two undefeated futurity winners in Pct- cr Volo and Volga (3) 2.04‘.£'. Three of her sons at the close of 1932, all full brothers, Peter Volo 2.02, The Great Volo 2.0214 and Vologda (3) 2.15%, were credited with 25 new 2.10 performers. Peter Volo was rc- presented by ‘his sixth two minute representative in _The -Marchioness (3) 1.59% and a. full sister of the trio, _ Volga i3) 2.04%, produced Brcvere (3) 2.02, the only performer able to score a victory from The lifarchloness both as a two year old and a three year old.

A study of the progeny of Nervolo Belle will alnp‘y repay any horse- man who is interested in blood lines, and the ivcalth of material for an- alysis which will be presented will prove interesting beyond a. shadow of a doubt.

lViinoi‘ Direct 1. 2.074;, is onc of the new 2.10 pacers of 1932 and. has the honor to have for his sire Min- or Heir 1.581;, one of the greatest pacers of a decade ago that was rac- ed by M. W. Savage of international stock Food fame. His maternal grandsire was Napoleon Direct 1.59%, which Ed Geers, the "grand old man," raced so successfully for several years on the Grand Circuit.

What do you think of this for a. horse bargain? Some eight weeks ago a well-known western trainer, Roy Nickcrson, invested $45.00 in a two year old trotter by McGregor the Great, 2.03%, and in a little more than a month he had worked the colt in 2.38, last quarter in .3494 seconds on the trot. Now they are predicting great things for him.

'I'here is considerable elation among interest connected with tire trotter and pacer in the United States because of the fact that Henry L. Knight. wealthy Chicago- an, has purchased a large farm and will go into the breeding and de- veloping of trotters on a consider- able scalo. He will also campaign a stable of race horses. The Horse- man and Fair World says: "It is the more encouraging from the fact that Mr. Knight a really big busi- ness man and if he believes that this 15 3 good time for him to expand ills horse holdings, others Wlll 5981 encouraged to do likewise."

Statistics released bi’ the 139mm‘ mam; of Agriculture of the state o! New Hampshire, show that there l5 o. big increase in the back to the horse movement on farms in thnl state. The increase in the P1153 39w years in horses owned on fem! 01' for trucking purposes is over 8,000. which is a snln of Welllymv” P" cent. There is no doubt that tho tractor has provvd its llllplillllllblfi‘ ness and that more and more they will be discarded in favor o! the

horse.

The name of the second import ‘made by Mr. MeNcill has not yet

Well, they do turn out in Europe and no mistake.

(The franc is worth about four cents so do not get the amount confused witndol- lars.) Let's calculate! Equals about $8,000.

We notice that our old friend Major S. 2.12%. was a winner at Summerside recently, stepping quar- ters around thirty-one seconds. Mo- jor S. is one of the nicest ice pacers one could wish to sit behind, having perfect ma s and possessing a great turn of speed. As a race horse he was one of the best and many of us will remember the aign he made when owned by Claude Mc- Millan. That was the year that Frank Adams had imported a good pacer from Ontario; in fact there were several good horses in with the Major at Amherst and Halifax. The usual practice was to sit tight the first two heats, then the third heat Claude would get busy and win hands down, also winning the next two heats and race.

Chinese spokesmen accepted the League's settlement proposals as vinv dication of their nation's policy. But difficulty developed with the Soviet Russian representative, who indicated his government had little faith in the new plan for settle- ment omhe conflict which has uls- turbed the far east almost a year and a half. The aotleanent plan.

crs, is embodied in a report which will be presented to the League As- sembly next week with every pros- pect of the hill approval of all members and governments except Tokyo.

Reaffirming chinsls right to sov- ereignty over Manchurla, the report repeats the Lytton commission's conclusion that the Japanese mill- tary activities in these northeastern provinces have not been legitimate self-defence, and it recmnmends the early evacuation of Japanese troops.

TOKYO, 1112b. 1'l—(Assoclated Press)—-Thc disagreement with the League of Naltlons over Japan's Manchurian policy was the ubject of a cabinet meeting today at which it was understood the ministers de- cided to withdraw the Japanese delegate from Geneva if the League adopts a prepared report censor- ing Japan.

Four decisions leached by the Cabinet were reported as ‘follows:

1. To reject the league's recom- mendations in the Manchurian sit- nation.

2. To maintain the attitude set forth in Japan's observations of the Lytton commission's report, es- pecially xegardlng recognition of Manchukuo and the stand for di- Not negotiations with China with- out outside intervention.

appreciation was shown by loud and continued applause, which was responded to by two delightful en- core numbers.

Taking the programme as it was played, the first number was "La Fblia," by Arcangelo Corelli, an Italian composer of the sixteenth century and contemporary with Couperin. It is a set of delightful variations on a Spanish theme, which has been used by Liszt in his Spanish Rhapsody, and which is al- so strongly suggestive of those used in a certain Sarabande of Hacndel. The last variation is quite elabor- ate, and Mr. Szigeti played it with exquisite delicacy.
