Alderman J. Harry Breen Halifax was here for a short visit over the holiday, returning home

of

Tuesday afternoon. Harry has

been one of the Marltimes lead-

ing horsemen for over 30 years and has owned some of the best trotters and, pacers that raced during that period. He is an in- timate friend of Alderman Frank

Adams. former manager of the lfalifux race track. whose most famous horse was the ti-otter

l.Vatchim 2.06, that dominated the trots in the Maritimes for sev- eral years and is now in stud service at Pleasantdiile Farm. W. Va. Among the horses that llarry lecalls with the greatest pride is Rona-Beau. a grey trotting getti- ing with a record of 2.10. A more beautiful horse it would he hard

in find and Harry turned down an offer of S6500 for him by parties who wished to exhibit

him in the show ring.

The best likedvi-1: our book was the pacer Star C. 2.09, that had

enough whiz to race over . fast tracks such ns we have now in 2.03. Then there was Sully 2.08. another good p:i('cr, and one oil

the lost horses llrlrry disposed of was Argot Pointer, that has been such a success for llorace Willis of this city. Argot, Pointer, it will he remembered. paced the fastest heat and the fastest two heats in the Maritimes last season. taking rl record of 2.07. At present three of Harry's horses are stabled at the Charlottetown race track- Whlzaway 2.10 275 and two three- ycar-oltls. botll trottcrs and all three are in the most perfect condition. They are being trained by the very capable Johnny Jewel, who has been with Harry since a very young man and is most conscientious in his work.

We asltcd llarry when they were going to open up the Hali- faxlrace track and Exhibition grounds again and he said that has been a moot question for sev- eral years. The difficulty is tlial there are quite ll number of people occupying houses on what was the race track. when ac- rommodation can be secured for them elsewhere there is a likeli- hood of the Exhibition and race track coming back again. Tile writer has the most. pleasant re- collections of 1-lalifnx and its race

track. My first visit. there was in 1912. I had started at New Glasgow and Summerside prior

to going there and had met. with a lot of racing misfortune but. at Halifax was a straight. heat win- ner uilb the four-year-old pacer lona Girl. taking a record of 2.19 U2. it was ;i very great dis- appointment to all Island horse- men, and I am sure to all Marl- time horsemen. when llalifax gave up its Exhibition and racing. Mr. Brccn is associated with his bro- ther ill the provision business under the firm name. of A. Malan Av. Co.. one of the oldest firms in that line. in the city of Halifax. No order is too large for them to execute and when great ships mine to lltliifax they are riglii. on their toes supplying them with the licccssary provisions. Everyone at the race track was delighted to welcome back to the open air again E. Frank Acorn. "Duck" was taken to hospital last week and rtlmrlur uas that -hi1: heart was affected. it would not have been surprising because he has been one of the most active men in this city with curling, his taxi business, shooting, gei- ting out programs for the liar- ncss racing, etc. But the rest has done wonders and he looks in the pink and we hope will take it easier now that he knows en- ergy is not inexhaustible. The boys around the track were wor-

ried bccatlsc "Duck" has had a izreat deal to do with the pro- motion of the night racing and

the many programs at. Charlotte- town and it. would just be a very bad blow if he were absent from his connection with the Exhibi- tion Association.

ill a very short time Julie lst, - horsemen will be filling out on- tries for the night racing early closing events, and on June 15th

for the early closing events in connection with the Provincial Exhibition Association's August

meeting. There are a large num- ber of classes that will fit any-

A post card from Cecil McGin- ley, 1-loulton. Maine. dated May 22nd has the following: "June Mornlns foaled a block stud colt yesterday. by'Norris Hanover 2.02 and I understand will be bred back to him or some other horse at Hanover Farms where she is at present. 1 think Simonson Bros., her owners. intend to mate her with Tar Heel 3. 1.57 ,2l5 when he is available as they ad- mire the Billy Direct blood very much." June Morning took her record of 2.04 (V5 in 1950 and is the fastest pacing mare ever bred in the lilaritimes. She is sired by Calumet Budlong 2.02 (V4 and her dam was Miss Victoria 2.14 by Kalmuck 2.15'.-'.:. grandam. Miss Possibility 2.12 by Possibility 2.02. The latter was the horse that pilt Sep Palin on the road to fame. He started as a green pacer and made 12 wins his first sea- son out. Jilne Morning was bred by Power Bros. of this city and sold at a year and a half to George Mat-Donald, Mermaid, who developed her and raced her to ii creditable record of 2.10 475, then sold her to J. H. Dewitt of Wood- stock, N.B.. who lowered her rc- cord to 2.09 (V5 and sold to Simonson Bros. her present, own- ers.

Among the recent arrivals at Woodstock track is Edward Lin- den of Newcastle, N.B.. with the sixfear-old mare Arlene": Money 2.20 35 by Real Money, dam. Tara Hanover, that Earle Avery raced some years ago for the late Vic I-loldaway. Mr. Linden is it grandson of the famous horseman Skipper Quartermain, that was associated for several years with the late Tommy Raymond. On Monday afternoon Julie 23rd. the

Island Park Raceway -at Wood- stock will have its official open- ing for the racing season. Prior

to that there may be an odd mat- inee or parade of horses without purses to give pleasure to race fans who visit the track. From present indications and what we can learn from our good friend Col. Jim Calkin. the Woodstock track is in for its best season in many years.

MacLeod handcuffed the Bear- cat batters. setting them down with only three hits. The Bear- cats picked up single runs in the first two innings and after that Macl.eod found the key and locked the door.

Kane had a perfect evening at the plate, sacking out a homer. triple, double and two singles in five attempts. Dolron of Que Roy- als clouted two doubles and team- mate Curley came up with one.

D'on Wheian was the umpire with Dillon and Joe Longaphic working on the bases.

Victory In Big Auto Race

By GAYLE TALBOT

INDIANAPOLIS. May 30 -(AP)

Troy Ruttman, a 230-pounder from Lynwood. Calif., shattered speedway records today and drove his cream-colored Agajaniall spe- cial to a sensational victory in the annual 500-mile Menlortal Dav race.

Taking the lead only 21! miles from the finish. when Bill Vuko- vich. another coast ace who had led almost throughout the spect- acular event. piled up on a retain- ing wall, the 22-year-old Ruttman won going away with an average speed of 128.922 miles an hour. The previous record of 126.244 was set last year.

A crowd estimated at more than l5tl,tli)U gave the husky victor an ovation when he pried himself loose from the cockpit and receiv- ed the traditional winner's kiss - this year from Arlene Dam of the movies.

It was the fourth try at the big prize for Ruttmali, who ttbbed about his age on his first appear- ance in the race in 1949.

For Vukovtch. who apparently had the classic in the bag with the finish almost in sight. the re- sult was 11. heal-tbrenker. His only consolation was that he was able to walk away fronl his damaged racer - that and the fact that he had piled up 3 total of 315.10!) in lap prize money.

A disappointment was the big Cummins diesel special. the only oilburner in the field. It. went out! with unexplained mechanical ills short of halt-way. The driver. Fred Agabashtan of Albany, Calif, never was up among the leaders.

Johnny Parsons of Sherman Oaks, Calif. the only former win-. nor in the field, finished 10th. Sev- enth money went to Corporal Jim- my Reese. a first time competitor from Oklahoma City; eight to vet-

During my rambles through woodland and stream-side this past few weeks 1 have been somewhat alarmed by the amount of fox and raccoon sign that I have observed. One rarely examines a soft patch on a wood road or a sandbar or mud bank on any stream or river without seeing "coon" tracks. It's the same with foxes - their tracks are crtss-crossing every. line of sulidltttls like they were travelling in packs. Both the fox and raccoon are serious predators in respect to game and domestic poultry. The coon loves to roam over marshes or along water edge. They also show a strong preference for swamps - the wilder and boggter the better.
