' Montague race track, the most popular of the mm] tlvice-arounds. was the scene of sensational racing yester- day afternoon when an ex-Grand Circuit pacing star Plucky Scott 2.06, hooked up with the old reliable trotter Heathcrbell in a duel that lowered Plucky Scott’s half- mile track record to 2.08% and Heatherbell’s to 2.08'/4 and incidentally out two and one-half seconds off the irack trotting record made by Heiitherbell three weeks ago and also two seconds from the Prince Edward Island trotting record of 2.10%. held by Abbe Worthy since made at Char- lottetown in 1931.

Not. only was the rsiciuz of a high order in the 2.15 Trot and Pace referred to above. but all the races were good with close fin- ishes, sometimcs of the blanket variety, making 1.: difficult, to pick the winner. Horses changed places with startling rapidity and spec- tators were on the qui viva frsm the first “Oo" until the lost heat was finished at six o'clocl;. It was 111113’ an afternoon of royal sport, harness racing such as is very sei- dom scen in this province.

R. “sandy" Somzrville of London, Ont., pro- gressed safely with two other cast- ern Canadians and a. ranking United States player.

Two roimds today brought de- feat to many leading players in- cluding seven of the best. from On- tnrio and Quebec. The headliner was the spectacular upset of Frank Corrigan of Ottawa by youthful Bob Reid of Rtgina, after the customer had turned in a smash- ing upsct in the morning to elim- inate Phil Fnrley of Montreal, one of the favorites.

The Alberta contingent of five, with the provincial open and am- ateur champion, Henry Marteli of Edmonton. leading the group, ad- vanccd to the fourth round en mnssc. British Columbia sent three men to the 16's, Saskatchewan one and M‘llll.Ol)lJ. three.

Redoubtable Phil Edwards Gains Berth In 1590 Metre Finals. Betty Taylor Crashes 80 ' Metre Hurdle Final.

(By Elmer Dulmage, Canadian Press Staff Writer) (C. P. Cable By Guardian's Special Wire)

BERLIN, ‘Aug. 5-—Invincible Jesse Owens set the stage for a three-event sweep by the United States in the Olymp- ic track and field games today as records continued .10 tumble in unprecedented numbers. ..

A tireless English pedestrian, Harold Whitloek, who strolled off with the 50-kilometre walking title, was the only “outsider” to break into the win-column as Owens roavtedoff with the 200-metre sprint, to become a triple champion, and teammates won the pole vault and discus throw.

Lean Lee Orr of Vancouv could do no better than fifth as the

ifax, dropping only four gtll‘l‘l£‘i3 in ,

great Jesse upset the world record in the dash. but Dr. Phil Edwards . raced into the blue-ribbon 1,500-metre final and Betty ((‘o-ed) Taylor, 1 also of Hamilton, earned 9. spot in the women's 80-metre hurdle final. Iln addition, Larry O'Connor, 8 University of Toronto timber-topper, l progressed into the 110-Incl-Io hurdle nmi-final: while Sylvanlu Apps [ of’ Hamilton and 10 other tied for sixth place In the pole vault.

ls '.I‘rlpIe Winin-

Highlighting the day like a. bril-

iiant star was Owens. As he hot- footed it over the 200 metres in 20.7 seconds, he clipped the world standard for the distance, around one turn. and saved 4-ioths sec- | end off the Olympic mark he set Tuesday. Monday he won the 100 metre dash and yesterday it was the broad jump. He is the first Olympian to turn the "hat trick" since peerless Paavo Nurmi did it in 1924.

Ken Carpenter, brawriy Calif- ornian, tossed the discus 165 feet 7 29-64 inches for a triumph that displaced the former Olympic standard of 162 feet 4 7-8 inches. Then Earle Meadows soared 14 feet 2 15-16 inches to take the pole vault medal. He beat. the former marl: for the gamm by 1 1-16 inch.

Even the walkers tool: a hand in

homesti-etch, where he faded and finished eighth. The thin, red- headed Thomson could not stand the pace set. by France's Bobby Goix, the heat winner in three minutes 54 seconds, and the Can- adian finished ninth behind Wooderson.

Liddle was a distant eighth in 9 trial taken by Venzke in 4.00.4,

Dr. Edwards, point: winner for Canada with a third place in the 800-metres. was in that some po- _sttion in his 1,500-metre trial. Bec- oall took the trial in 3.556. The Himgarian szabo was next.

Favorites Advance

Conclusion of trials for the met- ric mile, regarded generally as the premier race of the games, found most of the favorites still in the running. The survivors were blond Jack Lovelock of New zealand; defending champion Luigi Beccali of Italy; Glenn Cunningham and Gcncze Venzke of the United- States; Canada's faithful "old" Dr. Phil and seven others. The final. scheduled for tomorrow, remains a distinct. toss up.
