It is the tau of-thdl great tmnplg horse Gloster, which was bred by his father, James Roosevelt. Remy M. Jones, a noted breed- er and authority on trott ng horses, died recently at Lexington, Ky. At the time of his death he had among other horses on his farm Mr. Mc- Elwyn 1.59 1-4 who has since been moved to Arrow Point Far-up; Lox- ington, Ky. American trotters were raced in Austria more than fifty ‘years ago.

All these were prominent on the American trucks prior to being exported to Italy. On the same day at Rome, Italy, Eycbrighi, an out- standing three year old a few years ago in the U.S.A., won one of the races on the card.

Andy McDowell was sent to Moscow, Russia, to ex- amine a horse that was bong raced - at Russian brcd. Ho was found to be Ofilund L. sold by IWCDOWOII B! Lexington, Ky., to a Russian horse- man. Dick McMahon a-as sent to Denmark, to examine a horse rao-i ed as Jack Dempsey. Hc proved to' be the American tmtter Radbon.

Beavers were here tonight to play an- exhibition game with Fredericton Capitals, mild weather having caused post- ponement of a regular league flxtluc originally scheduled for the new arena at Saint John toillght. Ross Brown, Sussex, President of the Southern New Brunswick Hoc- key League, sald tonight he believ- cd the two league games already played by Saint John would stand. but the matter will be formally‘ con- sidered by the league executive.

The game was the M. H sched lie, Wolverines winning two and onclon Hawks one. . The result of night's set-to held them in sort of a. do. after the final bell rang. Abcgivolls played excellent hock- cy in the first period, outsllootlng Wolves fifteen to six, but sol-gem; was their ncmlsis. They kept m“- trol of the play in the second chuckcr, again outrlfllng l-lallmx sixteen to seven, and once more the “Blue-nose" goalie turned them back. and to make matters worse, the Abbies were forced to see two smart but colorless goals drift past Bubar for a lop-sided lead. The Wolverine counts came like a bolt from the blue. Abbies play- inl; heads-up hockey, outskaflng and outplaying their opponents, were suddenly brought to earth, and not until Hudson drove Mc- 511111115 iiass home did the fans come out of the lethargy.

To score four 15 koais on Abbies in their own back- yard was far, yes, miles from the minds of the Valr pucksters. They l-llfllcd the trick, however, and here's congratulations.

This trio turned in a game of hockey pa!‘ excellence. They worked together like s. well oiled machine and play- ed llke Trojans during the entire sixty minutes of play. Vince Fey. guson and Mosher were the big guns up front and turned in a stellar performance. Tho Abbies as a whole topped Wolves by a. big margin during the first two periods, especially the kid line of Hudson, Beaten and Mc- Arthur. These three horsemen nev- er worked harder and more smooth- ly than they did last night. ‘their efforts were not unavailing, for they counted twice on Wolverines before the final bell sounded. Overanxiousncss in the third pcr- iod ruined many golden opportun- ities for tllc h- mesters, who threw caution to the four winds in their endeavors to even the count and the cilnnce for an overtime victory. Thcir lncihod of attack proved dis- astrous, they being caught flat- footed behind the Halifax blue line time and again. In fact two of the Wolverine goals were scored when they had nobody to beat but the unprotected Bubar. THE SCORES The first period went scoreless.
