A rather unusual performance was staged by Cleo Hanover last week.

Writing of the three heats trotted by Spentell in winning the Transylvania at Lexington a yew Week-i 1180. Hervey saysz-“The ease with which these things were tum. 9d 01f by him was astounding. Once he was thoroughly mawed out he was a trotting machine 5o Perfect and with such fabulous re- sources that what he did seemed just nothing at all to him. The three heats were trotted in 2.02- 1-2. 1.00 3-4 and 2.00 3-4."

The sire of Spentell is Spencer (3) 1.59 3-4. He is by Lee Tide 2-05. out cf Emily Ellen (3) 2 09- 1-4 by Todd 2.14 3-4. Spence-i‘ has another grand trotter out this sea- son in the three-year-old Averill, that trialed In 2.00 3-4 as a three- year-old at Lexington two weeks ago. Avcrllrs dam is Harvest Tide 2.06 1-4 by The Harvester 2.01, out of Emily Ellen (3) 2.09 1-4. The youngester is therefore a grand- son of Emily Ellen, on both his sire's and dam's side of his pedi- gree.

George T. Penny, noted land auctioneer of Greensboro, N 0., who paid $0,800 for Grace Direct 2.00 1-2, at the Old Glory in 192i and raced her with great success for several years, has been out of the harness horse ‘game since 1929 when the dervression hit so hnrd. The last five ears he has made a comeback fnancially and was one of those who paid particular attention to the colts offered for sale at Lexington. It is believed that he will be back in the game next season.

A year or two ago we published an article in this column giving the results which a sclentLst obtained for a thoroughbred horse ‘breeder by treating the pasture of the farm where" the mares and colts were with certain chemicals. that added to its fertility and were the means of producing stronger offspring from the mares and giving the colts amd fillies better bone and muscle. When they were raced re- suits were astounding as compared

with the years under the old regime.

Now we note that Lawrence Sheppard, head oi the Hanover

Shoe Farms. whose colts and fil- lies have raced so well the past few years believes that he can further improve them by more scientific treaiment oi’ the pastures. Mr. Sheppard had the farm soil analyz-

with a. view to producing healthy, sound, well grovin year- lings. The expert recommended certain chemicals for soil improve- ment. His advice was taken and has been carried out. The pastures were treated, became the grazing ground of the yeurlings this Spring and the result is that they are splendidly grown. Mr. Sheppard says that this modern method may not prove the principal factor in winning the rich stakes but one thing is certain, the buyers of the colts will have something to work on.

There was some record breaking racing at Strathroy, Ontario. Oct- ober 9th. Bob Lee by Corporal Lee. set up a. new three-year-old paciui; record in the second heat of the Three Year Old Futurity. His time was 2.01 and he paced the third heat in 2.07 1-4. The Three Year Old Futurity was won by Miss U36 Harvester in straight heats. best time 2.15. The 2 20 Pace was won by Imperial Grattan by Orcus Grattan l.n straight heats. l-lis miles were 2 06. 2.05 l-2. 2.177 1-2. The 2.15 Pace was won by bee}!

THE RIGHT FILM

"AM I using the right film T" That

_ is a question which many snap- abootera ask-and, fortunately, it is a question easily answered.

There are three general types of film most suited for use by amateur photographers. These are ortho- chromatic or “ortho" typo fllm, flue- graiiied panchromatic film, auil high speed panchromatic fllm.

The "ortho" type film is ideally suited to moat outdoor picture-tak- ing. It has ample speed for outdoor shots, even with inexpensive cam- eras. And. moreover, it has unusual latitude in exposure-which simply means that even if you make fairly large errors in exposure, the film tends to compensate for them, and yields good pictures.

Exposure latitude ls obtained In the "ortho" type film by an inter- esting process of double coating-a fast fllm emulsion plus a slow fllm emulsion. This dnulile coating ex- tends the capacity of the film. As ii result, your pictures retain dcliiil in the shadows, even when somewhat iinderexposod-mid detail is also preserved In tlin bright parts, even with considerable overexposure.

Since moat ouidnnr scenes have strong contrast-deep shadows plus brilliantly-lighted areas-the double-

coated type film is a logical choice for all general outdoor shooting.

The second fllm mentioned-the fine-grained panchromatic type-is especially suited for taking pictures that are to be enlarged. It has ex- cellent apeed, although not the ex- treme sensitivity of the high speed panchromatic films. But its main vir- tue is the flue, even grain, which permits big enlargements with out- standing detail and quality.

The third fllm—the high speed panchromatic type-is the one to se- lect for snapahota-at-night, and for daytime shots under extremely ad- verse light conditions. Such film is so fast that It makes box-camera snapshots ensy at night, with only two umutour flood bulbs to illumi- nata the suhjnct. Because of its ex- treme speed, it must not he used for box-camera snapshots of sunlightod subjects; hut it is ilne for snapshots on extremcly dull, cloudy, or rainy days.

Black Hawks lmprovedClub This Season

(By Tom sller, Associated Prom Sports Writer)

CIIICAGO, Oct. 27-Chicago Black Hawiu will be an improved hockey cluib this season, says man- ager Paul Thompson, t how much improved he can't say until he has had time to see his re- built line- of veterans and rookies aga nst National League competi on.

Thompson, beginning his first full season as Black Hawk man- ager, has discarded five of the veterans with which the club fell from the Stanley Cup heights in 1938 to seventh and last place last season. The Hawks’ hopes are built mainly on what can be done b the youngsters brought. in to ill the veterans’ places.
