Sydney, Truro and several. smuigr tracks featuring oontests of sped. Good weather and warmth have brought out large crowds. in some instances such as 5uminerside's opening afternoon and night. re- cord breaking attendances. That harness racing is the popular sum. mer sport there can be no ques- tion of and we look forward con- tidentiy to seeking continued sup- port by the fans all through this season. no: of the biggest recent harness horse transactions was the pur- haae of the Val Stables, Sydney, y R. J. "Dick" Logue, owner of the Logue stables of Sydney. The Vel horses consist of Sandy Budlong 2.11 U5, Pat D. 206 (V5, Miss Eloise 212 US. and Mr. Logue is also the owner of Shimar Direct. in double winner at the Sports Centre last week. However, none of the above horses quite filled the bill as far as speed was concerned so Mr. Logue got in touch with the Maple- croft Farm at Ipswich. Mass. and bought their top r-ace pacer, PrincE Maplecroft, that took a 4-year-old reoord last season of 2.08. He is a brown horse by Cardinal Princi- 1.5!) U2. Last year he started 12 times. was six times first, twice sec- ond and third three times, winning 35,330. He is eligible to the 2.18 class and is considered a high class horse. Wendy Carroll, trainer for the Logue Stables, went to Fnxboro to take over the Prince and had the pleasure of seeing him Satur- day night get away in sixth posi- tion and win over a good field in 2.01 Uowa new record. He makes his first start at. the Sports Centre next week. Cape Breloners seem to like the get of Cardinal Prince as Reed's Cardinal 2.14, Vanguard

A resolution that holds consid- erable merit. was passed by the P. E. 1. Fish as Game Association at their Annual Meeting held at Charlottetown on Monday, June 20th. The resolution dealt with pheasants and recommended that one hen pheasant be allowed in

The big red roosters take to their heels as soon as they spot hunters approaching unless they have been caught napping in a small pocket of cover with open ground between them and a more substantial hideout.

The hens are more inclined to stay put and depend on their nat- ural camouilage for concealment. My guess is that once a season is opened on them they'll copy a page from their Coiisorts book of tricks. U. S. sportsmen visiting the province in quest of Hungar-
