~ DOWN THE
BACK STRETCH
We have a letter from Dr. George T. Mullen, North Adams, Mass., asking if we could assist in procuring a book by Joseph Cairn Simpson, called ‘ ‘Tips And Toe Weights”. The Doctor
‘is the owner of a very promising
young pacer named Betty F. Diamond, 32.11, and is anxious to find out all he can about har- ness racing.
His letter concludes with: “Any information on training or bring-
ing up a horse that you can give ’
me would be more than appreciat- ed. I understand from a native son of P. E. I. that you people grow up with horses and love them."
We would like very much to be able to send the Doctor two books of oursthat are on loan-Ed Geers’ “Life /With The Trotters” and Charles Marvin’s “Training Of Trotters”. If the parties who have them will ‘bring them in, we will forward them to the Doctor. HORSEMAN'S DINNER
An annual event that is looked forward to in Massachusetts is the New England Harness Horse- men’s dinner at the Hotel Brand- ford, Boston. The two horses sel- ected this year are: for trotting’ honors-Galophone, that earned $105,624 in 1957 and is owned by
.Mr. and Mrs. William T. May-
bury, Dexter, Maine. He scored 20 victories at harness tracks all the way from Bay State Race- way at Foxboro to Hollywood Park, California. He was retired after winning the $75,000 Ameri- can Trotting Classic at Hollywood Park last November.
The pacer that won the honors was Belle Action, a daughter of The Widower, that, trained and driven by Billy, Haughton, won 13 times, earning $65,107, and set a world’s record of 2.00 1-5 ‘for a
‘four-year-old pacing mare on a
half-mile track. Belle Action is owned by George B. Landers of Kittery, Maine. LOOKED THEM OVER
Stanley Mayhew of Kinkora and Cyril Smith, Hunter River, re-
» turned early this week from their
annual visit to the state of Maine, where they looked over dozens of racing stables and renewed acquaintences with prominent horsemen and drivers there. Their trip totalled in mileage between 2,000 and 3,000, and we asked Stanley if he was tired; he shook his head, smiled, and) said: “Not a bit.” Stanley is one of
the top traders in the Maritime provinces, and one of the largest handlers of farm machinery. We did a little business with Stanley in a few minutes last summer when we sold him four race horses. _
On this trip, Cyril and Stanley looked over trotters-and pacers that had campaigned in the Maine circuit, and bought _» several on which we will have particulars later. .
Elgin Armstrong, who has a 275-acre farm just west of Bramp- ton, Ontario, is renowned for the prodigious feats of‘ building, in- cluding roadwork, etc., that he has performed. He'is also famous for the feats performed by har- Iness horses he has owned. For in-
stance, he had the pleasure of, seeing Helicopter win the famed Hambletonian, and in his tack room is a photpstatic copy of the cheque he received. It reads $63,- 126.54, and that puts him in a class by himself, as far as Cana- dian horsemen are concerned.
HIGH EARNINGS /
Last year his pacer, Dottie's Pick, won $74,000 and her total earnings are $228,000. Horses he raced in Ontario and Quebec won close to $50,000, and those in the United States won $150,000. Dot- tiefs pick started the season by winning at Santa Anita Park on April 10 in 1.59 2-5; her record is 1.56 4-5, and she has paced a half-mile track in 2.00. Her driver is the famous Del Miller, who had I the good judgement to get a large slice of the ownership of Adios, that was sold to Hanover Shoe Farms for a half million dollars, and whose stallion fee is $5,000.
We have a letter from our friend F. B. Ramsay, 421 Glen- home Avenue, Toronto, Ontario. He writes that he had a great time reading the Maritime Har- ness Racing Review in the Dec- ember 28 issue of The Patriot, and enjoyed it very much. He showed it to several horsemen friends who were surprised at the amount of racing‘ held in the Maritimes. ,
He also sends greetings from Garnet Rowntree to the writer We are glad to have them.

Mr. H. Leslie Stiles, proprietor of Stiles Motors, is a very enthu- siastic horseman, and last year he raced three pacers that were good winners. Popular Veep, 2.05 2-5; Diane’s Hal, broken to harness last year, with two firsts,
ths and eight fifths last year; and Hal’s‘Gal, with 10 wins, and 26 times in the money. His stallion, H. D. Hal, 3, 2.05, is already the sire of Kinneen, 2, 2.10 2-5; Hal Again, 2, 2.16 4-5; Hal’s Man, 3, 2.09 3-5; Hal‘s Mae, 3, 2.09 3-5; Hal’-s Gal 4, 2.10 3-5.
It was certainly a smart move when Mr. Stiles brought N. D. Hal‘to Woodstock, and we are certain that his progeny will make a name for themselves in succeeding years.

EDMONTON (‘cm —. An em- phasis on skating and stick work resulting from adoption of some new rules and more stringent en- forcement of those “already in the books is drawing favorable reac- tion from virtually all concerned in two hockey leagues in western Canada. '
The amateur intermediate Big Six League in southern Alberta ha.s adopted experimentally Euro- pean rules under which much of the body-checking permitted un- der Canadian regulations is elim- inated. ,
The professional W e s t e r 11 League has not adopted new rules, but is enforcing existing ones in an effort to speed up play and cut down injuries.
Both ‘moves are in their early stages, but r e a c ti o n indicates they may be a major step in re- versing the decline in western Canada hockey attendance. SOME \DOUBTFUL ,
The switch to international rules for the last weeks of its regular schedule has won the Big Six acclaim. But some hockey authorities say this is going a little farther than necessary to bring the skills to the fore and eliminate some bashing and bruis- ing. They say enforcement of pres- ent rules is enough.
The Western League decided at its ‘midwinter meeting early this month to. ha.ve referees strictly enforce the rules. This meant in particular minor penalties to _play-

tying up the puck to stop play.
“It’s hard to believe we’re still using the same rule book,” said coach Hal Laycoe of New West- minster Royals. He said the change gives fans more sustained action and will bring back some of the game’s finesse. ‘
“Our first taste of the new rule-tightening plan was an un- qualified success.” said Jack Per- rin Jr., general-manager of Win- nipeg Warriors. “When Vancou- ver played here Jan. 16 it was the best hockey game fans saw in three years . . . .
BETTER. FOR FANS '
.“I know other leagues will have l to follow because it makes forl better entertainment, which is the only reason fans come to the game at all . . . . Whoever made the rules knew what he was doing. Unfortunately, somewhere down the line officials started to ignore ‘them and it was bad for the game.”
General Manager Bud P-oile of Edmonton Flyers, talking during the first game in Edmonton where the new enforcement was carried out, pointed at the crowd and said: . _ “Just listen to them. They li.‘s this idea. The players have to skate harder and use their sticks more. They can’t hang the puck into the corner and, then tie it up there for a whistle.”
Club executives say it is too soon to tell what effect the moves will have on attendance, but they

MONCTON (CP) —- Canadian and British Empire light heavy- weight champion Yvon Durelle was tested under heavy fire Tues- day for the first time ‘since ptomaine poisoning forced post- iponement of his bout \with Tony Anthony -in New York, Jan. 10. Ch-ris Shaban, Durelleis man- ager, said he is satisfied with the .way Durelle looked during a work- ,out here. Yvon did a pair of two- iminute rounds each with Norman |Gautreau, Maritime welterweight champ, middleweight Nick Kovac and heavyweight Bob Edgett. Yvon said he felt a little tired after the drill. His midsection was stillga little weak and he was still bothered a little by pains. But he said that after a few more days here‘ plus glove work in New York “I’l1 be in good con- dition.” “It won’t take long for me to strengthen up my stomach with roadwork," said Yvon. He did

Durelle lost about five pounds as the result of the poisoning,
blamed on shrimps. He said his present weight is around 175, a little low. He usually weighs about 178 and then works his way down to the 175-pound limit.
“Everything seems to be going good,” Shaban said. “I would like to have Yvon get ready a little sooner, but he didn’t feel too good so we waited until now."
Durelle and Shaban will move to New York Saturday to continue training.
Durelle held Anthony to‘a draw in Detonit on their first meeting. The next bout is regarded an im- portant one for both‘ fighters, who are aiming for a shot at Archie .Moore’s world light heavyweight crown.

The Royals -moved into the lead alomst as soon as the game was half over with Buck Whitlock combining with Skip Carver to give the Royals a lead they never

The Alberton High School hockey team were defeated 7-4 by Tignish in the first sec- tion of a West Prince Hockey League doubleheader in the Al- berton Rink last night. Some excellent hockey was displayed by both teams giving promise of some fine competetion in this league before a winner is de- clared. L. Richard got the only marker of the opening frame without a reply from the’ home team. Tignish forged well ahead of their opponents scoring four‘ to the home teams pair. Alberton rallied strongly in’ the final stanza for a pair with Tignish notching a singleton. Tignish snipers were T. Gavin, P. Ho- gain and L. Richard with two each and E. Perry with a sin-. gle.

Sterling McLure got that one back for the Royals a minrie later when his hard shot rebounded off an A08 player and slipped behind Mann. This made the score read 6-1 in favor of the home forces.
Gord Cutcliffe scored _the best looking goal of the evening near the end of the period. He received a pass from Lorne Hennessey as he was going in over the Char- lottetown line. He sidetracked two defenders and came in alone on Doyle to score.
In the third period Whitlock collected his third goal after four- teen minutes of play to give the Royals a 7-2 lead but Howatt got his second tally 17 seconds later to make it 7-3. Howatt’s goal was an easy effort. His slow rolling shot hopped between Doyle's pads as the Charlottetown goal- tender was about to block the pack and rolled into the net.
Billy Hughes scored two minu- tes later to bring the Aces closer but Dowling’ sent the excited crowd home with his fourth tally
