CTICAGO, Nov. 15—-(AP)—'I'l'le Professlonsl Golfers Association, in s. surprisingly speedy and llirmon- 1011s session, dealt itself a ‘new deal" today.

Delegates installed an entirely new slate oi’ major officers, choos- ing Tom Walsh of 011101180 8s Pres- ident. succeeding George Jacobus of Rldgewood, N. J.; electing Capt. Charles Clarke of WllloughbyjO, Secretary; and naming as Treas- urer William MaGulre, Houston Texas.

But where one of the stormlest elective sessions in P. G. A. history was anticipated, i-he direct opposite situation materialized. 11110013115, finishing his seventh term as pres- ident, formally announced his de- oislon against. running again and this was followed by the quick nom- lnatlmi of Walsh and Ed Dudley of Philadelphia as the only candl- dates.

The count was 45 votes for Walsh, Nations! Secretary for several years, to 22 for Dudley, s. vice president of the organization and chairman oi its tournament committee.

St. Teresa And Peakes Play 5 - all Draw

Wednesday evening on the Peakes gridiron the lie-man ruggers of Si. ‘Theresa bottled Kanlely lor '79 mul- utes to hold the fast and furious Peakes Station 15 to a 5-1111 draw.

‘Ihe very first blast of the whistle handled by James Devine, veteran rugby player. saw both teams enter a. struggle that had the few hundred tans in an uproar all durlng the

play.

Midway in the first halhafter the play had moved up and down the field, always in dangerous territory, George Smith, tangy forward of Si. Theresa, scooped l e ball 25 yards from his own goal line and went careenlng down past center field where he passed to Jimmie Gormley burly lQO-lb forward, who went thundering down the field for 6D yards and shook off and carried his tacklers to cross between the posts for the first tly of the game.

Harry McArees educated toe 11ft- ed the ball high for an easy con- vert. The rest of the period saw Peakes strongly on the offensive but unable to score.

The never-say-die spirit of Pezlkes was rewarded, however, in the sec- cnd half. “Little J. J." Mooney, speedy quarter of Peakes, started a sensational half-line play that saw the pigskin change hands six times in crossing the field, while he, re- oelvlng it, zlg-zagged 40 yards, and, evading his aitackers, planted the ball snfel behind the uprights. Reggie cDonald converted with

ease.

‘The remainder of he game though severely fought brought no further score.

Have Headache

CHICAGO, Nov. l5-—(AP)— Bookmakers in all sections of the United States, in Cuba and in many parts of Canada were cut off M. L. Annenbergs vast racing news network tonight,

The personnel of the nationwide news service, which for years had transmitted racing entries, odds, running accounts, results and pay- off prices from tracks to thousands of betting rooms, was instructed to oease Operations after the final flash on the final race of the day ltiead been dispatched over the sys-

m.

Abandonment of the business was ordered ‘by Annenberg, dominant figure in the Turf Information Em- pire. because of government op- position.

Hammond Chafietz, one of his attorneys. reported off-ins of the concern had been told to stop send- ing racing data at the close of the day's traffic and that the Western Union and Arn-erlcnn Telephone and Telegraph Company had been notified that their facilities would not be needed after tomorrow noon.

‘ Allston, l" ---- --

He estimated that not more than 500 employees of nationwide news would be affected by the

page.

Dissolution of the race news service may have Lhe greatest lm- pact on speakeasy trade since pro- hibitions repeal. But the full

lslgnlflance may not be known for

some time.

Some bet barons predicted ruin. Other envisioned a sharp slump in trade, poslbly as much as 50 per oent. The majority, heads buzzing but lmlbowed, cast about. for new methods of obtaining vlclal infor- mation from the tracks.

Refereeing Said Tougher Work Than Umpiring

NEW YORK, Nov. l5—He sizzles all summer and goes on ice during the winter, so it s11 evens up for Bill Stewart, although he'll admit with s. llttls prodding that the wear and tear of hockey officiating is a little greater than 1n baseball umpirlng.

Stewart. umpires in the Notional Baseball League during the sum- mer. and this year, after a. couple of years as a. team manager, is back refereelng in the National Hockey League.

He's quite a chunk of man-five feet, six inches tall and weighing 182. He's baldish, his drooping eyelids have fooled many an ath- lete who thought he could et by wllth something, and he as a square jaw. In brief. he's tough.

"In hockey." he explained, "the fans are more keyed up and rabid. and they're rlglht on top of you. Also, you have to keep your eye on l2 men. However, when you lose eight pounds on a hot day behind the bet in St. Louis it's no fun either."

Stewart was s. baseball pitcher in his day. He was with the White Sox briefly in 1919. He managed clubs at Waterbury, Comm, and snrlnivrleld. Mass" in 1930 before taking up umblrlng.

His hockey history is more color- flll. After playing a little on scrub teams. he started officiating ama- teur-games 1n 1922, and in 1926 broke into the pro officiating in the Canadian-American circuit. He joined the National league Staff in 1929.

In 1937 he took over the man- ager's Job with Chicago Black Hawks. and astonished the hcckev world by piloting a mixture 0f cast-offs, msflLs and the odd good one to victory ln the Stanley Cup series.

Thls case arose out of a race held July 27th at Invemess, N.

The driver of Dermal pulled him up and went to the barn. His owner requested the judges to allow Dermal to start in the third heat and he was allowed to do so under protest. He won the third heat, Royal Hanover second and Ralney G. Henley third. Sim- coe Harvester, the other horse in the race had been drawn before the third heat.

The following detﬁsion was rend- ered re the above case: “That the Directors of District No. 11 having met at Charlottetown, Wednesday morning, ‘November 15th, do here- by unanimously decide that the judges erred in permitting Dennat 2.04 1-4 to start in the third heat of the Free for All Pace at Inver- ness, N.

ls Guest Of Honor

At one p. m. Rn,‘ Duncan was the guest of honor ..l a luncheon tendered by the President and Di- rectors of the Charlottetown Driv- ing Park and Provincial Exhibition Association in the main dining room of the Hotel Charlottetown. and presided over bv LL-Col. D. A, MacKlnnon, D.S.O., President of the Provincial Exhibition As- soclatlon. Upwsrds of sixty guests were present, including track man- agers and owners, race secretaries, horse owners and track officials throughout the Province Quite a number of those invited could not be present but sent regrets.

A very enjoyable luncheon was served by the competent staff of the Hotel and at its concfuslon the President of the Provincial Ex- hibition Association introduced each of those present to Mr Duncan, asking them to stand. The Presi- dent then gave a short review of the history of the National Trotting Association and the recently form- ed United Siatcs Trolling Associa- tion, euloglzlno the worthwhile 0b- iecls that both had 1n view and their power for good in controlling harness racing and keeping it on a high plane. He stated that the Provincial organization had ‘been a member of the National 'I‘r0tting Association for 49 years and on its absorption by the United States Trotting Association Charlottetown had become a. member of the greater body.

He spoke of the pleasant rela- tions which always existed between lhe Management, the track and the Association officials, referred to the late W. H. Gocher, Secretary for some forty years, but intimat- ing that he knew there mllst l18.V(' been another great power behind the scenes as even when Mr. Gocher was for away accurate in- formation clme though by grnm almost as quirky as asked for. "The man behind thc guns" turned out to be Mr. Duncan, and it was a pleasure to have him pre- sent so that our horsemen could meet him and re could meet tllcln.

It. was also a pleasure to have present Mr. D. W. Griffiths, Sec- retary of ill-e Fredericton Ex- hibition nlld Races and ifanaqer of the N. B. Tourist Assccllllloll, as guru, also Mr, Charles E Bal- ‘nnd, Snurtorv of tile Sydney M'nes Rare Track.

Roger Duncan when called upon,

‘Provinces had been delayed. For many years he had hoped to at.- ten-d some of the larger race meet- ings but always work seemed to get. ahead of him and it was im- possible. so the present opportunity presenting itself he took advantage to make the trip and get acquaint- ed personally with those whom he knew by clmespondence as race ‘rack owners or secretaries or horsemen. The names of those present were very fnnllliar in manv cases, some of their letters he had handled for over thirty years, and it, was good indeed to be able to see them and later on shake them by the hand.

He gave considerable informa- tion regarding the work of the Association in various parts of the United States and told of the re- sulis of the use of the barrier. which he believed would eventually become a fixture on most of the important tracks if not on nearly all tracks One thing he oould say in all honlesty and 1t was that the returns from the Secretaries oi’ tracks in the Maritime Provinces were the best ordered and most promptly sert in of any District under his control. There seemed to exist, said he, throughout the Maritime Provinces, that spirit of British ordcrliness which meant so much in the conduct of a rac- ing body as well as ln the conduct of life.

"He was delighted with what he saw of the Province, with the City 0i Cllnrlotfetoum and the excellent
