The 2-year-old pacer that is per- haps attracting the most attention in the United States today is Fear- less Way by King's Counsel 1:58. dam. Jane Azoff 1:591,-5. In a workout last week she set a new season's mark for pacing fillies at the mile track near Ben White Raceway with a mile in 2:23, last half in 1:08. last quarter in :33. She is in the stable of Henry Thomas and Son and with her speed inheritance of 1:58"; she should be worth a lot of money as she is staked in over 5200.000 worth of futurities. Last full when Mr. Gaines kindly sent us his very attractive catalogue we look- ed it over and took a great liking lo Fearless Way and thought how much we would like to own nor. hut figured that she would bring anywhere from 510.000 to 525,000.

In the catalogue her full breed- ing was given lllld the fact that her dam was also the dam of Wayznff 3. 2:03 25. Winner of 19 races in 1950 and over 325.000. us well as Winsome Way 3, 2:11 and Lucky Number 2:11 U5. showed that she was a producer of speed. Jane Azoff had taken a record of 1259 U2 in the hands of the late Dr. H. M. Parshall and slle had it winning race record of 2:00 on a mile track and 2:03 114 on a half-mile track. She was the win- ner of 38 races and was second 30 times. Her career in the Muri- times in the ownership of Char- les Horton, Murray River. and driven by Willard Kelly, was a memorable one. On several oc- casions Jane set up track records. one of them still stands. that of Kensington, P. E. I.. and she re- peatedly raced in better than 2:09 over Maritime half-mile tracks and was a winner with Willard on the Maine circuit as well. '

Some years ago she was traded to William Miller at Bonnie Brae Farms. Wellington, Ohio. When Charles Gaines, after selling out his dog food interests, decided to establish a breeding farm in Ken- tucky, Dr. Parshall recommended him to buy Jane Azoff. There was a little irregularity in her ped- igree which prevented her from being classed as Standard and In order to qualify for that registra- tion she had to produce three foals that would take Standard records. This she has done as noted above and which was ex- plained in the ad for Fearless Way. We have all read of the fabulous prices paid at Lexington last fall where Leonard Buck of Far Hills. N. .I., tossed upwards of a couple of hundred thousand dollars for yeurllngs and E. J. Baker over 3100.000. well. believe it or not. Fearless Way was pass- ed up by them all and purchased

Azoff. a straight heat winner in 2:08, 2:07 1X2, 2:08. She was own- ed by Ted Grant of Houlton. Maine. and many will remember her as an outstanding race mare. That same afternoon Josie the Great, owned by Les Bickerton of Amherst. and driven by Johnny Conroy. won the 2:15 pace with the middle heat in 2:06 U2, which was for years the Maritime record for a Maritime llred pacing more until June Morning supplanted it two years ago. '

Walter Brown and owner Etter were also victorious at Union, Maine. At Fredericton Jeanne Truax had the best summary with Walter 2-1-2. time, 2:09, 2:08 ll-1, 2:07 V4. Walter was a straight heat winner his last race of the season at Fryhurg. Me.. Oct. 6, best time 2:10 1x'-1. In 1939 he was 3 winner at Truro, Moncton. Amherst. Charlottetown, St. Stephen. South Paris, Me., and only twice that year did he fail to win. He was campaigned that season under the ownership of

N. B. Lameness prevented his racing in 1940 and he never again fully recovered from that trouble although he did make a few starts in 1941-2-3. His best showing in 1941 was at St. Stephen where he was 2-3-3 in the Free-For-All. won by Jane Azoff with best time 2:07. All Grattan having the next best summary of 3-2-2. After his re- tirement from the race track Wal- ter was used as a matinee horse at the races in Halifax. where he was very popular and up until a couple of years ago was well up among the leaders. As we men- tioned beforc, he was a handsome horse with perfect manners and in the hands of Tommy Ettcr was it perfect racing tool. We know our friend Tom will remember with the deepest regretgthis gal- lant horse.

We are delighted to welcome back to this column Dr. L. Roy Johnston of Greenfield, M:lss.,son of the late esteemed Dr. J. A. Johnston of Tignish. Roy enclosed a Clipping on the Brockton train- ing colony which is the largcst in recent years and in which we no- tice that ”Billy Hood. the horse- man and humorist. from Nova Scotia is assisting Harry Coleman with Roy Morgan's Cedar Crest. Earm stable". Billy has traded Frank Adams. the three-year-old son of Wqtchim 2.06 to Harold C. Ralph, Waldoboro, Me., for Vic. tory March and cash considera- tion. Our comment is that Billy and Harry Coleman should make a great combination. In our opin- ion there is no better fltter and trainer than our friend Billy Hood. That has been proven by

Tom Rookey. plnylns his third game with the Hawks after at seven week absence, paced the Monctaon attack with three goals. Rockey returned to the club last week from Carmen. Man., where he had been called by an illness in his family.

The big defenceman proved a tower of strength to the locals both offensively and defensively. Glace Bay took an early lead at. the three minute mark when An- derson rapped in a pass from Wlndley. Hawks roared back with three tallies to take a 3-1 edge and were never headed the rest of the way.

Hawks scored two more goals in the second period, while Miners were getting one. and came up with another pair in the final per- iod whtle holding the Miners to a single tally.

Rockcy was easily the outstand- ing player on the ice. but for the visitors playing coach Bud Poile and defenceman Johnny Myketyll played brilliantly in a losing cause.

Ray Marshall started Hawks on the victory path. Other scorers in addition to Rockey were Burmun. Filion and Rowe. For the Miners Anderson.
