J. A. Bonang, Halifax, writes us a5 follows: “Dear Sir-I am an old time lover of horses. and I saw one the other day in Halifax that took mv eye. It was the great old favour- ité race horse, Hcutherbelie. He “.85 jmmiised to a light driving wagon, nn a young man held the reins over him. Despite his 17 years he seemed as frisky as a colt, and gave evidence of excellent care, as his coat was shining and he was fit- imd full of vim-much differ- ent from the shape I saw him in two years ago. I do not believe that there are many horses as popular as old Heatherbelle. He has thrilled thousands of people at race meets all over the Maritimes and alwaii gave the best that was in him, try- ing until the very last end of the mile." Thanks, Mr. Bonung, for your thoughtfulness in writing such good news about our good old friend licatherbelle. 2.08 1-4 that gave the writer many thrills, too. He Still holds Montague track trotting record of 2.08 1-4. and lest we iordet it may be mentioned, that within two weeks he lowered the record three times. He also held the record for the Charlottetown (fuck, 2.0a 3-4, from 1936 until 194i, when it was placed at 2.07 3-4 by Alioway 2.04 3-4. The meeting of the Nova Scotia Race Track Owners and Secretar- ics was lieid at New Glasgow on Wednesday afternoon. and a sche- dule was drawn up for the season's races, as shown below. 1t was de- cided that the nurse would be $350 for the Free-for-Aii, and three other classes with purses of $300 each, that is for one-day race meets. Where a two-day race meet is held the purses are at the discretion of the track owners. An entry blank svith uniform conditions for the circuit and other cooperative fea- tures was stressed. A.

At the conclusion of the Track Owners Meeting. the horsemen were invited to “sit in" and discuss the schedule and other matters in con~ nectlon with the season's racing‘. The horsemen erzprcssed themselves as troll-pleased with the schedule and the purses. It was decided to gut oi\ a membership drive, each. orseuian present to endeavour to interest .as many others as possible arid secure their membership in the Nova Scotia Horse Racing As- sociation.

The band was in at- tendance through the kind oo-op. eration of Major A. S. Robert-son, officer commanding at the camp. The parade lined up on Queen Street, and extended from opposite the Market Square to the mo; o; the street, Cpl.

M1‘. W. H. Beaton. Mr. A. B. Cutcliffe did much to organize the show and get the parade lined up. All classes, colors and size of horses were inciukd. from the smallest Ponies to heavy draft horses. City police were on hand to di- rect traffic and assist in keeping the crowds back enough to leave a lane through which the parade could pass. The lineup of the parade was as follows: Frankie Clarke on the pony Peggy; Band from No. 62 C.A.B.T.C.; detachment from H. M115.

There ts no question but that if h- gets back into his 1940 form. he will be a very tough horse to head on any Maritime trac and should pace a track like Char- lottetown in 2.06 or better. Charlie Ball-pd‘ of Sydney Mines. who attended the meeting in Tru- ro, says that horsemen in Cape Breton would like to buy a good free-for-aiier, and they are dick- ering for Eddie C.

Given a whirl on the Mar- itime cirlult, where the climate is not as hot as through the Western States, we believe that Eddie Grat- ton would be in the fore-front of the battle.
