He has the honor of driving the fastest mile ever paced in the Maritimes with Walter Dale 20056 at Fred- ericton. Sept. 15, 1037,-2.025. Horseme are reminded that the closing date for the "Jollity Three Year Old Trot end Pace" for a guaranteed purse of 35.000, spons- ored by the Truro Raceway, Ltd., Oarl Mscxenzie, Secretary. Truro. N. S.. is November 15th.. Several horsemen spoke to us about this stake and they had the idea that it was only for colts by Jollity. This is not correct. Any foal oi 1062 that is fouled in Canada is elisible, no matter who the sire is, and it only takes a. 810 bill to en- ter in the biggest colt stake ever promoted in the Maritimes. It will be, a great guessing contest from now until 1055, as to who the wiri- ner will be. will it be c three- yesr-old owned in Nova Scotis. New Brunswick or P. E. 1.? It's anybody'e guess and judging by the three-year-olds that have shown up this season, over half a dozen of them that can pace 1- round 2.15. we wouldn't hazard a dime as to which province will carry off the lion's share of the 35.000. , The season now drawn to I. close has topped all previous cam- paigns in 2.00 miles, a total of 47 registered thus far. the best record since 1038. Direct Rhythm, owned by W.G. Reynolds, Louisville. Ky., started it of! back in May with a trip at Santa Anita, Cal., in 1.59 U5. Altogether he has stepped four 2.00 miles this season, with one against time at Lexington in 1.56 1l5-the fastest mile paced in the world in 1952. Another son of Billy Direct, Tar Heel. paced the second fastest mile oi the year -1.57-and also had four 2.00 miles for the year. In addition Adios, Sampson Hanover and Star's Pride each had three 200 miles, and Good Time, H. D. Hanover. Wil- mington Star and Ford Hanover two each. Among the above 10 newcomers to the select list were six three-year-olds,, the pacers Adlo Abbe, Meadow Rice, Poplar Dell, Thunder Clap. Wllmlngton's Star and the trotter Sharp Note. Drivers of 2.00 miles were Frank Ervin and. Johnny Simpson with six each; Del Miller. five; Harry Fitzpatrick, Harry Pownall and Clint Hodgins, four each; Benny Schue, three; Al Winger and Ed- gar Leonard, two each. Thirty oi the 47 miles in 2.00 or better were in races. the remainder in trials against the watch. Marltimers who knew Nat Ray in the days oi his glory when he was racing over the Canadian cir- cult and at the ice races in Tor- onto, will be glad to know that he is recovering nicely at St. John's Irmspital, Yonkers, N. Y., from concussion suffered when he was thrown from the sulky while driv- ing the pacer Sergeant Yorke, that bolted for the paddock at the three-quarter mark. He had been previously hurt some weeks before at Roosevelt Raceway while driv- ing the pacer Truth. Nat Ray was the man that first recognized greatness in the pacer Grsttan Royal. Grattan Royal had been purchased in the fall of 1911 as s two-year-old by Charlie Barrett of Park Hill, Ont., at the Chicago auction, and developed by Charlie and raced by him at the Duiferin Park races the following winter. Nat bought him for a. patron of his, paying the then big price of 35,000. and he gave Grattan Royal his record of 2.06I;a. Unfortun- ately Gi-attan Royal met with an accident which permanently lamed him before he could show the really astonishing speed he had on tap. Nat told the writer that he has actually timed him' eighths in 13 W5 seconds and be- lieved that he would have beaten 2.00 by a big margin had he stayed around. After the accident Grattan Royal was sold for a song to ejparty in Ohio, but a few years afterwards when Charlie Barrett noticed that three colts from mares bred to him while in his ownership show- ed tremendous speed. he made a trip to Ohio and bought Grattan Royal back again and our readers know the rest. He is on the record books as one of the really great sires of fast pecers. Nat. although close to the eighty mark,hs.e been driving regularly every season and we have never noticed him in the accident list until just recently. Mr. and Mrs. James Poulton, who were accompanied by Len 0'- Meara on their recent trip to Yonkers, have. returned. While there Len .purchnsed. the seven- year-old bay geldln Royal Scott, Jr., 2.07 W5, eligibe to the 2.18 pace. for George Gregory. char- lottetown. This horse was fumed over to the trot this season and has, every appearance of being a good one for the slow classes oi 1935. He will arrive here later on. Len spent some time when our old friend Bob Ryan. who showed him around and introduced him to other drivers. Len enjoyed his trip very much and liked Yonkers Raceway and the good racing there. We were pleased to receive the following from a young Summer- sidc horse lover who is now living in New York and iouowlng the racing there with great interest. we hope when the season opens next year that he will drop us some notes from time to time as he has the faculty oi writing in- ierestlng harness horse news and comes from a family oi horee lovers.... "in the course of the past two weeks I have witnessed two oi the year's istanding. events in the world o the harness horse: these being the last race and last public appearance of Good Time. on ,,ThIii'ldly night, October 80.

CHARi.0TTETOWN Sport Echoes From Prince county We had the pleasure of attend- ing an exceptionally fine banquet at the slrmen's mess of the local R.O.A.P'. Station '!'hursdsy'- night Representat we of baseball, soc- cer. softball, track and field, golf and tennis were there and e. large number of trophies and other awards were presented to the vari- ous athletes. The R.C.A.F. station in Summerside had what was probably their banner year in sports in 1052 and one Maritime and three Island titlists marched to the head of the table to re- ceive the trophiee emblematic oi these worthwhile achievements. wxc Dilworth made the presen- tations. The station sports authorities made a happy choice in their mas- ter oi ceremonies. FVL Gibson. chairman of the sports commit- tee, acted in that capacity, and proved to be a Wayne and 8hus- ter rolled into one, keeping the gathering in constant merriment by his facile wit. Gibson is, we hee.r.'quite a soccer player, but he can certainly use his head for more things than bouncing e. soc- cer ball around. Ross Bui-ns' 'Islsnd dhsmplon baseball team received tile Physi- cal Fltness trophy from James Hogan, Jr. By the way, we'd like to take this opportunity oi con- gratulating Ross on his new role as sports editor of the R.C.A.F. Albatross. Flight-Louie Burns does I. bang-up job with his pen, as he did as a coach oi the Mari- time lntermedlate champs. Na drooling or namby-pamby stuff, but straight from the shoulder, criticizing where he thinks critic- ism is due. Fact is. he took s. crack at "Sport Echoes" in one of his columns, and as we missed that issue, we didn't know a thing about it until Riss called our at- tention to it last night. In an un- guarded moment, we made the statement or maybe it was jus: conjecture, that the R. C. A. F. Royals of 1952 were apparently a low grade of inter ”' 9- Island champions. We backed up this opinion with the fact that Bath- urst, particularly in the Royals' home game, seemed to have a big edge on the Airforce crew, while N.B. champs have always been clay pigeons for our llM8-l51isag- gregstlon from Summerside. 'lQen we said we'd wait and see how Bathui-st made out with Bear Riv- er, N.S. top dogs. Sure enough, Bear River did beat Bathurst by a 0-6 score in a sudden death af- fair. F.-'L Burns counters with the reminder that his Royals took our "strong" intermediates with their ace pitchers, Stewart and Bernard. Our answer to this is that Rey- nofds and Lopat would have had trouble on the mound with the combination of old men and kids that made up the 1-lolmsn aggrega- mm-- even more difficult, in warming up Good Time popped a curb on his left hock. When the timers hung out :30 for the quarter it appear- ed that he would not lower the track mark. However. each time Ervin asked for more speed "The Pony Racer" responded, and 15,000 shivering .fans cheered him home in 2.00 U5. After a season oi hard campaigning, and under the most adverse conditions this perform- ance wes nothing less than spec- tacular. Good Time was paraded for his last public appearance to the strains oi "Auld Lang Sync" and the applause of an appreci- ative crowd. ''on Hambletonian Day in Go- shen I was privileged to have a close look at the world's lending money winning pacer. He is very small (14 hands and 8'15 lbs.l, but extremely compact. standing over a lot of ground. His high rump. short legs, long length, large, but i'inely moulded head, and his ex- cellent, ' well-developed musculat- ure strangely call to mind descrip- tions of the great progenitor. 1-lambletonian in. He is virtually nerveless; completely relaxed at all times: never showing a sign of nervous tension. Frank Ervln con- siders this to be one oi his great- est asseis. In harness he is lazy and slow moving when going the wrong way of the track, and his famous camel-like walk invariably draws more of laughter from an audience. However. when turned in competition "The Giant Killer" really gets down to business. It is then evident.thst he is a perfec ly gsited machine, 'with the act a and determination oi a great champion." Frank A. Ryder. Moncton. is sending his three-year-old pacer. Royal Bank. 2.12 Sill to Earl Avery at,Yonckers Raceway. New York, and Earl will race him next season. Earl Sample has returned to Kensington from a very successful racing season at the State oi Maine tracks. He brought back with him to Kensington, Mona Clegg. 2.14 2115, Dean Gallon. 211, Mary Mei-k 2.08 N5 and four other trot- tlon this year. We still can't un- derstand how we ever held the Royals to seven games. Perhaps it. was not fair, how- ever, to classify that Royal team on the showing they made in one ball game. Just as one swallow does not make a summer. lone ball game does not show the call- bre of a ball team. We'll concede this, Ross. The series that your boys put on with M.C.A this fall was never surpassed for baseball thrills in the modern history of Island baseball. We've heard good- ly number of fans say that same thing. So maybe the Royals were unlucky enough to have one of their worst slumps the day they played Bathurst here. We didn't know until last night that the n.c.A.r. in Bummersid has an athlete who played for the Ottawa R.C.A.F. hockey team that won the world's championship at the Olympic Games some years back. This is FA. Dunster, who caught for the airfome softball team this summer, and coached the R.C.A.F. hockey squad last winter. Dunster says he' will don the blades this year, and play for his team. Speaking about major hockey in the Marltimes, does this 1-lughle Campbell pack a six-shooter, that referees seem so afraid to put hlrn in his place? Last year we saw him push a ref all over the ice and get away without a misconduct. Wednesday night, Campbell push- ed Gillls repeatedly and again he got away with if Campbell has a pushing license, then it should be made known so that other big brulsers can get one Then the stopping of the game for a full five minutes while the whole Halifax team disputed an' Islander goal, while Giilis took it and argued back was a disgrace- ful exhibition. Gillia may be a smart referee, and an honest one, too, but we think it would be bet- ter if an arbiter was chosen who did not have the associations with Halifax down the years that Glllis has. . The Week I at S.D.U. well, Folks, last Saturday was indeed "All Saint's Day", and in view of the football score of 28-2 against the Acadlans it is quite evident that the Saints were cog- nizant of that fact, and did much to make it a memorable one at S.D.U. The three tries of the first nine minutes gave all hands the ambition and esprit dc corps which is necessary to provide that steam-rolling effect. Although the playing was not considered as be- ing as good as that of two weeks ago, things still clicked in a very effective manner. They must have, for Paul Jay, Scouts Coyle and Sanka Gaudet each scored two tries with singles by Clarence MacDonald and Cople Callaghan. Jack Reardon made good one con- vert and Pete Dunphy one penalty kick. For the game today at Mt. A. the boys will bear the reassuring "Come on, Saints", as many of the student body will be present to lend moral support. lrhis marks the first time that such an emi- gration from the campus has tek- cn place. Now that the mid-term exams are over and the signs of relief give way to the ominous lull portend- ing the realization that not as much was known as Mr. I'd thought, let's cast a. glance over this time of strife and walling. There were many sure signs of mental preoccupation and toil which hit in different ways. For instance, Lorne Murphy was seen pacing back and forth on third corridor wildly gesticulating and muttering incoherently about the relationship of zy gates, subcontr- ary propositions and Louis Na- poleonl And at the height of the tension Max Callaghan" kept hear- ing sub-conscious voices saying that he was wanted in the par- lor. The funny part -of it was that he actually found two girls of his acquaintance! 1-ie's either lucky or popular-one thing for sure he's psychic. More indica- tive yet of mental strain, is the story that at breakfast the other day, John Trainer and Emmett Roche while sof-toning toast in their coffee, broke into a heated argument just because John lik- ed better to dance the rhumba while Emmett! favourite was the tangol And for the boner of bon- ers Gerald Steele takes a bow. as he finds himself minus twenty marks for not writing a history exam. He's only young yet how- ever, so there is still hope. C O O This past week- has been Mess Week at St. Dunstan's. Started by the students this noble ef- fort was initiated better to in- troduce all to the real significance of the Holy Sacrifice that there might be a better appreciation and love of it. Monday evening a film, "The Perpetual Sacrifice", very well explained and illustrat- ed most of its sspects and its historical basis. Tuesday's reli- gion class was devoted to a lec- ture on some part, and s. discus- sion ol the Mass in general. In addition, the regular dialogue mented by s. commentary during the saying of Low Mass in which was mentioned both the part and its..purpose. in the discussions a couple of points were made very clear. To arrive at I greater love and ap- preciation of this our greatest gift, it is necessary to have a pro- found knowledge of it end strive with increasing effort to assist with devotion. Also belief in the Mass must be more than A passive acceptance of a truth, but it should be an active and motivating realization that it is the same Sacrifice as that of Calvary. O O C This Saturday night, the local committee of W.U.S.C. (World University Service of Canada) will sponsor a dance in the Holy Re- deemer Community Centre. Funds derived will go to promote such undertakings as a scholarship for a guest student and financial as- sistance to needy students in un- der-developed countries, whereby they may have the means to help themselves. Everyone today is conscious of the threats of poverty. ignorance and communism which go hand in hand. The program of W.U.S.C. is a means through which the partial removal of these may be affected, and at the same time further international good-will. . e . Thought for the week: "If there is righteousness in the heart. there will be beauty in the character. If there is beauty in the character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world." -Chinese Proverb To all of you, from -S.D.U., health and happiness. FAMOUS FLEET ST.
