Dr. Hugh MacDonald, North Sydney. has bought I two-year-old by A-bner T. Clegg 2.04lil. dam by Sampson Hal. from D. B. Coles, New Wilishire. She is handsome and well developed and has I nice way of pacing. 'I'heiDoctor has also purchased a young pacer by Calumet Budlong 2.023A. dam by Orola, by Dingola 2.0652. from Alf Carver. Pownal.

The largest crowd seen at an afternoon harness meet in Sydney for many years turned out for the holiday last Saturday. A program of twelve dashes brought some splendid finishes and was voted one of the best seen in years. The P. J. Cadegan stable of Glace Bay with Worrcll Lewis handling the ribbons, won the largest amount of money. but the driving honors went to Joe MacDonald, well known for his campaigns with C01- onell Dan. Joe won five dashes. two with Mae Harvester. the feet- est of which was In 2.1,5lr;. two with Velia La Vella, in which he headed Scott Spencer, Wilkin, Cy- clonic and Carl Frisco. in 2.10 2-5. 2.12 2-5.

This little chestnut Grattan mare is only four years old and showed considerable class. The time was 2.18 1-5-a record for Lily Marlene, who had no record previously.

Moncton fared much better than Montague with their racing Wed- nesday. probably because it was a Twilight Meet. In the 2.28-2.30 class Norah Dale by Playdale. owned by J. C. Ryan. Sackville. N.

Mccloskey. Island heavyweight boxing champion. turned in a really smart performance to definitely outpoint his more experienced op- ponent In a scrap that was fast and rugged all the way and gave attending fans plenty of action.

The semi-final. lightweight title scrap between Lund and Beau Jack was the really bristling scrap on the card, with both boys coming up with some really fast. hard-hit- ting. clever boxing. .

in the first floral presentation ever made at the Sports Centre. It was in the form of a beautiful rose- carnation floral horseshoe, present- ed by Ficldberg Florists of Sydney and was placed about Vella's neck by Miss Fieldberg. The Cadegan stable's principal winner was Cru- sader Chief. who won dashes ii and 12. each in 2.15 4-5. Another winner from the same stable was Arionway.

A deluge of rain prevented the carrying out of a first class pro- gram at the Montague trackl last Wednesday afternoon. The four heats raced developed close finish- es with Tiny Budlong (T. Weir) winning the No. 1 Classified from Prince Budlong (H. Cudmore) in 2.14. She is owned by Linus Mul- ligan. Kinkora. In the No. 2 Clas- slned Trot. Feather Duster 2.14 by Abbe Worthy 2.05ti. dam Dude Potempkin 2.07V4. led from wire to wire-a perfect trotter. driven by Lorne Kelly. who received quite an ovation. Lusticia was a very close second. It may be mentioned that this mare was trained and driven last season by Charlie Wil- lis. Covehead. and was turned over by him to the Kelly Stable last Tuesday. so credit must be given to Charlie for doing is good job. Everyone is expecting great things from the Duster. She is owned by Lester Johnston. Fortune.

The No. 3 Classified was won by Vallle Long (Lowery) by I nose sfrom Lela Budlong (Collins) in 2.14 2-5. He is owned by Annear & Lowery. Montague. But the real surprise of the afternoon was the winning of the No. 4 Classined by Lily Marlene. owned by Rhodes Warren. Charlottetown. This mare

Our old friend Thane Belyea is out and around and apparently as active as ever. judging by a letter received from him a few days ago enclosing a score card of the Woodstock, N.B., races held June 29th. A good crowd turned out and the Starting Gate proved popular with spectators and horsemen. The 2.19 class was a real race. accord- ing to Thane, with close finishes, Graham Hanover (Woodcock) win- ning the drst heat in 2.12 4-5 from Bonnie H. (O. Jardine) in 2124-5. Steve Hanover. owned and driven by Harold Pirie won the second heat in 2143-5 from Graham Han- over.

Some smart young pacers show- ed up in the 2.28 Trot and Face with Jo Jo Spencer. owned and driven by Wilson Coker. stepping the first heat in 2.15. Happy Bill second and Cedric Hanover third. Jo Jo Spencer was also second in the second heat. but the real in- terest centred in the three-year- old Jock Martin. a brown colt by Fleet Hanover. that had started a few times last year and had win- nings of 5240. Fourth the first heat. in the second heat he stepped to the quarter in 32 2-5. the half in 1.05 3-5 and won in 2.15-certainly nice parading for a three-year-old in the Maritimes. He is owned by George Carpenter. Woodstock. and was driven by Orin Jardine. Pleas- ing news to Mrs. Sampson Grady. Summerside. will be the fact that Donald G. 11.. owned by Weldon Fleming. Juniper. N.B.. and driven by Roy Barnett. was a straight heat winner in the 2.22 Trot and Pace..They were down to the half in the first heat in 1.05 and fin- ished the mile in 2.12 3-5. The

These boys. who take their ball seriously, have been coming up with some smart play during the past few seasons. and reports from the various club officials. indicate that they are expecting another successful season of close. com- petitive play. and that by the time playoff time rolls around. there is going to be some stout battles be- fore championships are declared and the winners move on to meet other county winners in their re- spective divisions.

There must be a lot of promis- ing material to be found among these groups, and it might well pay some of the coaches of senior teams in the larger centres. such as Charlottetown and Summerslde. to take a gander at some of their clashes sometime. particularly if they are looking for material to bolster their own clubs.

Whynott started to get to Mc- Closkey more from the fifth round on to land some good solid punches at times with both hands. but McCloskey made him miss frequently to come in with effec- tive counter punching to hold the advantage. Whynoit had his nest rounds in the eighth and ninth when he swapped punch for punch with McCloskey in some really close-in. rugged fighting. that was very even and smart to watch McCloskey was tthe master again

pace it up in the second when they stayed close in to one another and let go with really solid punching. Lund using an effective straight right at long range, which he oc- casionally turned into a damaging hook. while Beau Jack did some nice counter-punching and in- fighting.

Lund started to take the upper hand from the third round on to land smashing rights and lefts to the head that put Beau Jack in trouble, sending him down for a nine count in the third and again in the fourth. He also cut him up badly in the latter round and had the Beau just about out at the bell. Referee Ralph Jenkins wouldn't allow Beau Jack to come out for the fifth and awarded a technical knockout to Lund. to retain his championship.

Just how many feet will be turn- ed in is anyborty's guess. as the bounty odice employees and Man- ager are keeping strictly mum on the subject. This is only fair as no one has any right to keep tabs on the contestants. For instance: if X knew that a certain contest- ant was leading the field and was only ten or fifteen crows ahead of

him he'd most certainly put on an extra drive to make up the deficit. I have an idea that most of the top-notch crow hunters will hold back till the last possible minute
