'"0- The races at Summer-aid drew a grand crowd of spectators. The day was fine and comfortabl wann and the events were very eenly con- tested and almost every heat was uncertain as to the winner until s ring which made it difficult for tge trainers to get in tho usual number of workouts was responsible for the time in all classes being slower than Bus! on Dominion Day. But this did not take away one bit from the exciting finishes. {1- In the 2.26 trot there were six starters but it took four heats to declare the winner-Eva Worthy, owned by Dr. Preston McIntyre. Montague and driven by Dr. Heath McIntyre. The rise came in the first heat when Buddy Moko. six- year-old son cf Calumet Budlong. dam Maud Moko, bred by Wednell Morrissey, East Royalty and driven by Blair Andrew, won the first heat from Nell Kalmuck in 2.18, earning himself a record. Eva Worthy won the next, and Mickey Volo the third heat and in the race - off Eva Wor- thy was the winner. _.-()-_ The 2.18 Trot and Pace was a surprise win for Lady Hal, 2.11%, owned by Myron Bell and driven by Ike Moreside. It was expected that the ex-Ohio pacing mare Lor- raine Abbe, 2.0191. would cop the bacon but evidently she has not yet acclimated although she show- ed great speed getting away. Lor- raine won the first heat wit Lady Hal second; Lady Hal the next- two wiih Harold Stead's O.U. Volo. 2 2. Best time 2.13141 by Lady Hal. ._U__ The frre for all was probably the best race on the card bringing t0- gethcr the super trotter Lee Bre- wer 2.05%. Jean Henley 2.08%. Gift- llnc 2.01951. Bcdford Grattan 2.08% and Bright Spot 2.10. Some terrific speed was uncorked in this race but all of the horses showed th re- quired rpore work. This race s ould key them up. The firs; heat was won by Jenn Henley, with Lee Bre- wer second. The second heat was won by Lee Brewer from Jean Hen- ley and in the third heat Giftline Jean l-lcnley and Lee Brewer fin- ished just heads apart with Gift- lin: getting the decision.

And with the “folding up" of the City Softball League, n. league that held much promise in the way of keen competition and en- tertainment sports officials are casting about for some other form of sports activity to take its place. It was hinted ‘ ‘y yesterday that exhibition games would be arranged between the Navy team and Summersldc airmen and 1f this should materialize then it will be one way of keeping the softball game alive for the re- mainder of th_e season. Then too it is a known fact that boys of the Queen Charlotte are mightily interested in hard ball and with plenty of equipment on hand it is just possible that they may form a baseball team; civil- ians throughout the City are a1- ready holding practice sessions and that would give the City two teams and it is just possible that games with outside teams might be arranged. ._Z—=' atters A left-handed batter, 1w ma,“ his first times up 1n both games against southpaw pitchers Al Ger. heauser and Rn¢_ Holmes went to hat l0 times. five in each contest. and Mailed a. home run, four two-buggers and q single. ‘Those mighty blows drove in a total of six runs, thereby enabling Tiimml’ to take the lead for both In Clliwgo- Hornshv said when informed Holmes had cracked his record: “oongratullationfl” I REMEMBER warn Bv The Canadian Press Craig Wood of New Jersey and Denny Shiite of Philadelphia tied for the British open golf title at St. Andrew's with 292 scores 12 yea-rs ago today.

To me Mr. Peter Conroy was outstanding because he drcve in more races and looked more like a big time driver than any one else I knew. No one who has not lived through it can describe the feeling of conscious equality experienced by the young boy devoted to the horse as he sits listening to the horse of his elders.

Seabiscuit and most of the Kentucky Derby winners in recent years and have watched Tommy Murphy driving Peter Manning at the top of his form. l have never been so enthused by these performers as in watching the races at the Charlottetown track in the years when I was a boy.

In fact one of them already has sig- nified his intention of turning our and that is "Snag" Squarebriggs. “Snag" has been around the local sport scenes a. long time but he is still far from being too old and his presence on any outfit enough to insure that. the club in question will have plenty of hustle and fight if they follow Square- brlggs‘ example. ' “ In fact it has been players of ten years ago who have been main-l ly responsible for this drive to getl baseball on a firm footing once more. The majority of them have never taken too kindly to the softball version of the game, a1- though they have played it some, and it has always been in the back of their minds that they would some day be able to get baseball hack once more and at the BMM time have another whirl at it them- selves. . . ' Now it appears as if the efforts they have been putting forth are about to bear fruit. There ls still a lot of work and energy to be ex- pended howeyer before their ef- forts can be termed successful but now that they are to have a. new diamond laid out and with form- er players showing more and more interest _daily they seem determ- ined that before the season ends that the groundwork will have been laid for an organized base- ball league next season. The Knights of Columbus and Holy Redeemer goftball leaguesl are in full swing these evenings also and reports emanating from these centru have it that the teams are providing bang-up com- petition for the large following of fans that are witnessing their lea- gue tusslcs. The brand of ball played in these leagues is show- ing much improvement every year and it will not be a bit surprising if in the near future c local city league will be in full swing with players from these leagues play- ing prominent parts. In fact they have plenty of material right at present to fonn a team that could make any club in the city step rather lively. Tangible proof that the hand is quicker than the eye is to be en- countered in the person and per- formance of Pete Gray, plucky one- armed outfielder of the Browns. amya Doug Vaughan in the Wind- soc‘ Star. _ . ' It is a. revelation to watch Pete play the garden. and it is an ex- perience watching him simply playing catch in front of the dug- out before a game. Even in this comparatively leisurely exercise. Gray's manipulation of the glove. taking it off and putting it on, is so rapid that it is difficult to fol- low his movements.‘ . -¢-_:_.-——_-; To Amherst I9-10 The Summerslde Girls Softball team journeyed to Amherst, N, S“, on Wednesday and played the Am-‘ herst girls team who were last. year's Maritime Champions.
