l-‘rcierictun was favored with good weather for its Exhibition races on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and these were Vary successful, nearly gll good contests with finely drawn finishes and several sur- prises.

signal Senator. owned and driven by H. M. Sweeney. Bridgewater, us, entered the 2.10 list when he won the first heat of the 2.18 Trot and Pace registering in exactly 2.10. He also won the race although Ab- ner T. Clegg captured the third heat in 2.11.

The performance of the Senator horse was perhaps the biggest sur- prise handed out at a hSITI-BBIUHCQC‘ ml; for sevcral years. He had rac- pd well at Charlottetomm but his summary was third to Abner T. cirgg and Star G. In the third hca: hc was drawn, having injured his knee in the second heat. It llllisl. have taken at least two weeks tn get that knee‘ back to normal, so that was a handicap iri training and then to go out and beat such horses as silver Evans 2.06%, Royal Han- over 2.09%. and Abner T. Cleilil gjililfi, is an achievement oi the first rank. ~

aeity S. 2.07 had a stirring con- lest in the Junior Free-for-All with Cilumct Devil who won the first hcat thcn Betty came through in ihe second in 2.07%. just a quarter of a second behind her record taken in Ohio 1n 1933.

Calumet Bee, owned by Welding- i011 McNcill. Southport, again dis- posed of Alan Harvester in the 2.18 Trot and took a new record of 2.11, me-hulf second faster than at Charlottetown. Calumet Bee was also better in the summary of the 2.14 Trot than Alan Harvester or Lusty Frisco. Lusty with Pat Mc- Kenrie. showed no improvement over his form with Torn Holmes up.

We were glad to see H. T. Fulton, Upper Stewlacke. a winner. His Baronet won the 2.24 Trot 1n straight heats and took a new re- cord of 2.15. Billy Keyes was the pilot.

Mariindcli, owned by E. B. Avery and a heat iviniler in the 2.24 Pace at Charlottetown, was the winner of the 2.25 Paco and he acquired a ncw record oi 2.11 in the third heat.

The daspritch from Fredericton stating that a ncw Maritime record for two-yenr-olds wus created when Sully, owned by ltlrs. Margaret Bul- lard, North Syduey- Diced l. mile against time in 2.21 is correct. the former time record being made by Carry Oil, (lflVfiilVby Billy Kcyes in i932. Carry Oil pact-d in 2.21%.

Holt-ever. thc race record for two- yBflr-Olrls is 2-24‘; made at Char- lottetown Ailgilst 21st by Guy Ann, oivncd and driven by George cm. hock. Sllmmcrsldc. Furthermore, both Siillv and Carry On were im- poricd. while Guy Ann is Maritime brcri and therefor also sports lhe ltirlriiima bred record for two-year- oids as well as the race record for two-ycar-olds.

Tho following statistics re Fred- eririon may be interesting to our i-l-udcrs. There were 18 heats paced, thc fastest being the 2.07% of Betty S. in the Junior Free-ior-All and the slowest the first heat in the'2.20 Pure won by Josie the Great in 2151.». The average of the 18 heats was 2.10%.

There were 8 heats trotted during tho meeting, the fastest being the third heat-in the 2.14 'I‘rot won by Volunteer in 2.00% and the slowest the third heat in the 2.24 Trot won bv Baronet in 2.10. The average of thc ii heats was 2.12%.

fine of the oldest horsemen in ill!‘ Maritimes passed away ‘this lwck in the person of W. S. McKie, who had attained the great age oi 93 years. In thc days before the

flilvcflt of the automobile nu was a ‘d

familiar name not only in the Mar- iiimes but also in the Eastern Uni- lPil states where he carrid on an oXionsivg business in carriage hor- Sea,

Among my earliest recollections es a boy we; pouring my father and others talking of Mr. McKic and his izreet knowledge of horses. I was therefore greatly interested when I saw him driving around when I iirsfcame to Charlottetown. Shar- ing a seat iii the wagon with him Was the laio Benjamin Heart-I. futhei- of Honorable Prank Hearts. Another great, friend of Mr. McKieil Was senator McLean of Sguris.

eating facts regarding the breeding

a. big business in heavy horses. 1h made noticeable improvements in the breed here by the importation of such good stallions as Oakley Baron, 2.18% and The British Sol- dier 2.15%. Another good stallion that Mr. McKle had for several years and perhaps his best known alienate old timers was Provider

The racing game found in Mr. McKie a. warm supporter up until the time his faculties commenced to decline. In the early years of the present century he usually had a horse racing at the principal meets and in 1017-18 he was represented on the track by The British Soldier 2.15%. l-Ie was a lklndly plan and one whose word could be relied on and those who had business dealings with him had no regrets.

We have unearthed some inter-

of Guy Ann 2.24%. Maritime race record two-ycar-old. She is sired by Clover Guy 2.07% by Guy Ax- worthy 2.08%. Her dam is Lady Helena by Captain Aubrey 2.01,‘: out of Helena Constantine Mil/i by Constantine.

BothlCaptain Aubrey and I-lel- ena Constantine were sold from the Indian Mound Stock Farm, Mis- souri, at the Old Glory Sale the fall of 1012. Captain Aubrey was pur- chased by John Rlchards, Bideford, P. E. I. and brought to this pro- vince. while Helena Constantine was acquired by H. T. Fulton, Upper Stewiacke, N. S.

Later on Captain Aubrey and Helena Constantine were mated and Helen Aubrey 2.08% was the resitlt. Then came Gwendolyn Aubrey 2.0814 andPcter Pokey 2.07%. fourth foal was Lady Helena. She toed out on one foot and was sold to Fred simonson oi Bangor, Maine.

When Colonel J. S. Jenkins sold Devil Set (3) 2.11%. to Fred Simon- son he took in part payment Lady Helena. After keeping her for a year or so he sold her to the late Dr. W. G. Church, Summereside, and at the dispersal sale she was bought by. Ray Lidstone, Freetown, ‘who bred her to Clover Guy 2.07% in 1932 and Guy Ann appeared in 1933. She was purchased practic- olly unbroken by George Callbeck. Summeralde, on the 5th of May, 1935, and he has given her all her training and preparation since and drove her to her record of 2.24%.

We have received from Walnut Hall Farm. Donerail. Ky., their 1936 catalogue with particulars regarding thc farm stallions and the foals oi 1934 that will be sold at the coming Old Glory Sale, New York City, in November. It is as usual a, very in- teresting publication giving the breeding of farm stallions and the extended pedigrees oi the foals of- fered for sale.

The writer spent a part of last evening going through it and noting the blood lilies and matiuka which are the result oi experience and close study of pedigree. Hundreds of names of great and near great performers on the race tracks of America and Europe figure in it. Anyone interested in the purchase oi a good colt should send for a catalogue.

Accompanying it was an invita- tion from Dr. Ogden M. Edwards. Junior. to be present at Walnut Hall Farm, Walnut Hall Day. Sepi- ember 22nd, when the yearlings. stallions, brood mares and wean- lings would be shown to visitors. One can spend the whole day iii; the Farm comfortably and be interes- ted, eats are provided. The howl;- ality of Dr. Edwards and Mrs. Ed- wards is well-known and m-my hundreds from Canada and differ- ent parts oi the United States will be present.

The attention of horsemen is cali- to the u. nouncement of the Prince Edward Island Harness Rac- ing Club 1930 Futurity for two. three and four-year-olds which appears in this paper to-day.

Stronger Teams For I935 Title

(B! Elmer Dulmuge) (Canadian Press Staff Writer) ‘TORONTO, Sept. 13 —- When Sarnla Imperials return from the west to view prospects along the eastern or home front they will realize at once the eastern senior

The football title will require plenty of

defending this fall. Competition will be something more than brisk. A year ago the Imperial: were conceded the O. R. F. U. cham- pionship before the schedule open- ed, a fact which left the big bor- der brigade with no mental wor- ries. They proceeded to splash through the six-game schedule without a defeat and hit the play- offs in iull stride.

It's different now. Balmy Beach of Toronto has been building with intent. The egst-enders have gath- ered four outstmdin; stars to lead an attack on Sarnla. and there is no early concession of the 0. R. F. U. championship. Instead, the three-team “baby" oi senior cir- cuits will have an interesting duel. - The Beach team picked three plums from the Big Four and ali- other from the Intercollegiate un- ion. They got Ab Box, 11134 Argo- naut captain, to do the backfield punting and thinking. Box is one of the few kickers able to hold his own with Bernie's Bummer Stir- ling. Beaches expect him to call signals and throw forward passes as well as punt.

Beside him will be Armour Munro ball-carrying and kicking star of Argos, the pinch-hitter who rob- bed Montreal Wheelers of the Big Four title last November by staging a one-man revolution. Munro trounced Montreal all alone in the second half of the rcheduleis final game, ripping apart Wheeler de- fences in his breathless display. It left Hamilton with the union title. Art Upper fleet University of Toronto halfback, is another Beach newcomer. Chief addition to the line is Ernie f-Iempty. burly Mon- treal middle wing. Coach Alex Ponton is confident he has enough other material to round out a challenging squad. Imperlals will have to take the 0. R. 1". U. seri- ously once more.

Derpite strengthening of Argos in several spots and a distinct threat from Ottawa and Montreal. Samirs danger point in the Big Four is undoubt ‘ly Hamilton. If the Tigers had nothing else in ‘the world, there would still be a back- field of Huck We‘ch and Frank 'I‘ilrvi1le. two of the country's great- est kicking and running backs. And the Tigers have lots to got with this pair. . Turvilie, one of Canada's great football players of the lart decade, is going through another campaign only because he wants io see how he and Welch can make out together. Huck, a former Tiger, has played for several years with Montreal. Holey Jeffers and Wilf Patterson are other first-string real-guards- men.

Should Montreal or Ottawa or Argos carry a punch sufficient to flatten Hamilton, then. it will be time for the Imperials to become really worried. Pie-season views

They said the Geneva address of Laval marked the beginning of "a new period of armed strength and. stiff diplomatic principles" to meet a “serious situation," and they saw a firm determination to stamp cut the war fever.

France, these officials. pointed out, never has contemplated mil- itary sanctions. In fact, they con- ceded that the form any possible economic and financial sanctions might take and the procedure in- volved was “unknown-because it never yct has been attempted."

The possibility Laval supported the British position ln regard to Italy because he received utterances that Great Britain would not waver from her present course in case Germany becomes involved with Australia also was discussed here.

French observers avoided express- ing any opinion as to whether an Italian attack on Ethiopia would be considered "resort to war" un- der article XVI of the League Cov- enant. They said. however, that in such an event the severance of economic and financial relations automatically would become ap- plicable-

Whether Mussolinks African campaign would be a “war? how- ever, might be disputed. Officials considered it likely he would avoid a. formal declaration of war as Japan did in her Manchurian con- quest.

‘There were suggestions, howcvcr, that any sanctions might bcslu with c. stiff embargo against the exportation of war materials of any classification. _

Premier Laval was sincere in saying he still hopzs for pcacc. Anx- ious to keep Italy's friendship and to avoid sanctions if possible, hc was said to have placed Frcilcll loyalty to the League above over)’- thing clse. But he felt that Italy would understand his position.

Mild Reception Given Liberal Candidates.

As at the two previous meetings, little enthusiasm was evidenced by the small audience at the lbiberal meeting at Vernon Riverilast night. At the meeting held there during the provincial election campaign, standing room in the large hall was at a premium, but at last night's meeting there were not more than The speakers were listened to in stony silence, al- though given a small amount of perfunctory applause at the conclu- sion of their addresses.

The two candidates, Mr. J. J. Lar- abce and Mr. Peter Sinclair were silpportcd by Mr. S. S. Hessian, M.L.A., Montague.

In a disjointled and rambling dis- course, Mr. Hessian dealt, first with his personal history. then with the ncw pal-tics, and shifted from that to various phases in the history of H118 Liberal and Conservative par- t es.

Referring to the new parties, Mr. Hessian advised the people to stick to the two old parties. He thought that new parties are a hindrance rather than a help in the govern- ment of Canada.

Mr. Larabces and Mr. Sinclair's speeches were rehashes of what they delivered at Flat River and Eldon.

Mr. Larabce confined his remarks principally to criticism of the Ben- nett Government. He made no an- nouncement oi the Liberal policy, but stated that “if Mr. King is elec- tcd you wi!l_ once more be headed on the road to prosperity as you were previous to 1930." Later he admitted that the depression would have hit Canada to some extent even had a. Liberal Government been in power.

Mr. Sinclair also thought that two parties were all that were need- ed in Canada. l-lc also devoted a large part of his speech to criticism of the government. In concluding his speech, he said: "We are not coming out with any platform or promises, we do not believe in them." They are coming to lhe country on the past record of the Liberal party, he said.

Mr. J. J. McGillivray was the chairman.
