The Castleton Farm stallion Scottish Pence 1.57 U5. that is to be retired at the end of this sea- son to the stud at the farm. has probably left a two-mile pacing record behind him that will last for a long. long time. It was in the winning of the 50,000 Nassau two- mile pace at Roosevelt Raceway that he made the greatest effort 31 his career and set up a new ivorld mark for two miles on a half- mile track - 4.13 215 - which cut 3 2(5 seconds from the former world record held by Grattan Mc- '.(lyo and made in 1949.

Johnny Simpson's rise to fame has been nothing short of phen- omenal. It was 1938 when he first sat behind horses owned by his father and uncle. In 1042 at the age of 22 he became the youngest reinsman ever to drive a mile in two minutes or faster. The pacer was My Birthday and since then he has marked four others in 2.00. In the early 40's he campaigned very successfully and then joined up in the services and spent. three years as an Infantry lieutenant. At the conclusion of the war he open- ed up a public stable and rapidly climbed to the top. In 1050 simp- son won in races to lead the Un- ited states and Canada and his horses earned 0234.000.

THE GUARDIAN. CHARl.0TTET()WN

Close. exciting track battles that kept. the photo finish camera busy sorting out the winners at the wire was the predominant feature of last night's harness racing card staged at the Exhibition track by the Whltespot. Raceway Associa- tion.

Driving down the stretch in tight finishes that were almost dead heats in some instances. every one of the ten dash events held pro- vided a thrill a minute plus up- sets and good payoffs at the pari- mutuel wicket for lucky bettors.

Only two of the five classes pro- vided consistent winners. with the other three providing split honors in the twin-heat affairs.

The only.double winners were Silk Hal in the third and eighth dashes and Feather Duster in the fifth and tenth events. Silk Hal. owned by Roy Bevan of Charlotte- town and driven by Dave Wlsner. breezed home in front of a seven- horse field from behind on both instances while Feather Duster. owned by Lester Johnstone of Fortune Bridge and handled by Lorne Kelly. proved to have too much speed on the stretch to win in a like manner.

Miss Playfalr. owned and driven by Willard Kelly was the big win- ner in the first dash. but gave way to a driving finish by Bob Can- uck. driven by Len O'Meara in the sixth event. Nosing out Harold Cudmore's Prince Budlong in the second dash. James Heffel's Abner The Great was the winner in an almost. dead heat. at the wire. but the Cudmore horse made no mis- take in the seventh dash to drift home a winner in front of Jenny Kalmuck and Filbert. Driven by George Sobey. Abner The Great went. the fastest mile of the night in winning his event in a time of 2:12.

Sobey drove his second winner of the night when he guided an- other summerside entry. L. Mc- Farlane's Allan Mac home in front .of an eight horse field in the ;lourth dash. but, when the same lclasa came out again for the ninth event. it was Joe I-lennessey with Junior Hal that paced home to .v1ctory in a tight. battle to the lwire with Carl Aubrey and Abe-3- weli. Mllady.

In the opening event on the card. Ma Cherie. driven by Teddy weir. and Lady Ruthie T.. driven (by Dobson. became involved in an accident going round the lower turn to the 5-8 pole. Drivers and horses all hit. the track in a nasty spill and were unable to finish the race. Drivers or horses were ap- parently uninjured however. be- cause they were all back out on the track again going strong in the sixth dash.

In the third dash. Billy Conn. nwned and driven by Esner Bow- ness. Summerside finished second but was set back to fourth for in- terference on the first turn. and was ruled out of the eighthdash by the judges by failing to appear on the track at parade time without the permission of the judges.
