DETROIT (AP)—-Jack Adams, general manager of Detroit Red Wings, said Tuesday night he meant no criticism of the Boston National Hockey League club or its officials when he accused two Bruin players of deliberately try- ing to injure Detroit player Gordie Howe. ' Adams said Sunday night that Leo Boivin and Real Chevrofils, of the Bruins combined on a “dirty play” that sidelined Howe for a month with two broken ribs.
Tuesday night Adams said in a
prepared statement: " “I realize on my return from Toronto today, without repudiat- ing any comment I made regard- ing the Howe injury, that an in- ference could have been drawn that I thought the injury had been inspired or directed by the Bos- ton management. '
Suggest . Apply Anti -Trust Laws
To ,Pro Sports
WASHINGTON (AP) The House of Representatives anti- trust subcommittee today recom- mended a bill to apply the anti- trust laws to commercial aspects of professional sports. These aspects would include such things as refreshment con- cessions, rental of stadiums and fixing of admission prices.
Chairman E ma nuel Celler (Dem. N.Y.) said the bill would permit baseball, football, basket- ball and hockey, the sports to which it applies specifically, “to continue to maintain reasonable reserve clauses, player drafts and farm systems.”

turkeys. It requires time, patience and careful planning. Sometimes the cards will be stacked against them and a flock will run across the raod in full view of a hunter. It’s on record that this will only happen once if the hunter takes a shot at them. After that they are all the same deer — they’ll stick a neck out and look up and down to assure themselves the coast is clear before venturing in to the open.
The wild turkey is a game bird, that does not trust a human be- ing and it’s for this trait, and not for the generosity of hunters, there are so many turkeys still on the rounds in the province to- day. In this age of high pressure hunting any bird or animal that is not capable of looking out for itself under ordinary circumstan- ces will eventually find itself on the debit side of ‘the ledger.

Our winter of 1956-57 was a toughie. It began in November and its last highway- blocking ha- zard occurred on May 3rd. When the introduced, wild turkeys man- aged to pull through such a win- ter on their own, without the aid of handouts. They have proven themselves to as tough as they are brainy. Many are asking the questions where, and how, did they winter?
This columnist guess is that they sat out the winter in some dense, remote swamp where food was abundant. It had to be abun- dant or else they'd’ been forced to move about and would have been spotted. One can only guess at the type of winter food suf- cient to keep a bird the size of a turkey alive during such a win- ter as we experienced in 1956-57.
It could be waxen alder buds. I have tried them. They chew up into a wad with a sharp, bitter taste. One thing is certain. If there is life-sustaining nourish- ment in winter alder buds there is enough of this type. of food available to winter h million turkeys.
SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) Rain fell for the first time in months Thursday in parts of New South Wales, ending a drought which cost the lives of thousands of cattle and thousands of dollars in loss of farm produce.

OLDEST FARM
The oldest harness horse farm that has been in continous oper- ation, we believe, is Walnut Hall Farm, which is now divided be- tween two sisters. One farm is Walnut Hall Farr.n- the other is Walnut Hall Stud. The progeny of these farms is well known to our readers, as many of the best trot- ters and pacers that raced over Maritime tracks through the years came from there.
What is probably the largest farm is Calumet, which has 980 acres. Throughbreds foaled there won more than a million dollars last year. Horses bred by Henry 1!. Knight raced and won over $6,661,581 during the farm's life- time: his farm is known as Alma- hurst.
CARED FOR
. Looking after the ills and ac- cidents of the valuable horses, or even the principal farms which we have mentioned, requires the highest skilled veterinarians, and Drs. Hagyard and ‘Hagyard of Lexington, Ky., are considered as such. And one of the most valued members of their staff is Dr. George ~\Bishop, formerly of this city. The Doctor has never sev- ered his ties here, and at present has several horses in training and stabled at the property which was formerly occupied by the late John R. Dennis. Mr. Dennis was one of the leading fox breeders here in 1910 to 1914.
The star of the Dr. Bishop stable is "Darn Good Pick, 2.02, by Darnely, 4, 1.59 3-4, dam Roberta Volo, dam of seven with records between 2.02 to 2.09 1-6. This is an exceptionally well-bred horse, on both sides of his pedi- gree. As n two-year-old he won in 2.06 1-5; at three, in 2.04 2-5, and last year in 2.02. His total winnings are 3525.965-

“My interest in horse racing dates back to the year 1921, when I went to work for Frank Adams of Halifax. I have been secretary to Mr, C. L. Dauphinee for the past 25 years, and since his death last November, I have been man- ager of the company which is carried on under the name of Cyril L. Dauphinee, Ltd., I have been treasurer of the Halifax Harness Horse Club since 1948, and very glad to have been as- sociated with them."
