WWII THE BACK STRETCH Rankin -Mclainp and Willard MacDonald amived back Tuesday evening from a week's business trip to the U. S. A. in which they managed to get a lot of pleasure out of. visiting five race tracks and witnessing three baseball games. Their first stop was at De- troit, where they visited the Chrysler and Dodge plants and saw the racing at Detroit's new speedway which was erected at a cost of something like 34,000,000. It is a question which is the more up-to-date-it or Roosevelt. From there they travelled to Batavia Downs where there is another very nice n-ight racing plant, then to Roosevelt where they saw Ihe 550.000 two-mile pace with seven- teen of the fastest performers in the United States taking part. They had a few words with Joe O'Brien who was very busy that night. and they saw him pilot Indian Land from fourteenth po- aiticn on the getaway to third. Scottish Pence, the winner. start- ed in thirteenth position and driv- er Wayne Smart copped the big dough in a very stirring finish lrom Jerry the First-the biggest money winning pacer of 1949. The four-year-old Early Dawn by Play- dale, dam. Dude Potempkin. was a starter in the third race and put up a good contest with Apropos from the Franklyn Safford stable. winning in 2.08 3-5. There were almost 25,000 people watching the sport that night and 3102.000 was bet on the two-mile pace. From Roosevelt they went to Saratoga. which in not as large as the other plants but very beauti- ful and up to date. They saw Joe O'Brien drive winners that night and noticed that he was a great favorite with the speculators. Last Tuesday afternoon Joe drove Brewer-'s Gallon to a win at Gosh- en in 2.03 4-5 in the S3,000 2.18 trot and immediately after the race he lieft for Saratoga where he won two races that night and was sec- ond in another. Returning to Can- ada they stopped off at Montreal and saw the racing at Richelieu Park and Wednesday Rankin of- (ficated at Montague. L The most sensational change in records the past week was the (performance of Ridgewoocl M.. by Woodward Azoe. owned by Bert Steele, Amherst, and driven by Angie Allen, in the third race at f.l"rum Saturday night, when he paced around the field finishing in 2.12 3-5-almost ten seconds drop in his mark. (Bert Steele is a for- mer Charlottetown boy and a Big Four Hockey star). Last year Ridgewood M. started once at Bridgewater. Sept. 28th, and won (in 2.22. He is eligible to the 2.28 pace. Another outstanding per- formance that same night was the winning of the fifth race by loin Henley. owned and driven by Clayton MacLeod. Westville, N. S., in 2.00. which equalled her record and which we believe is the fast- est mile paced in Nova Scotia this season. She also won the ninth dash in 2.00 2-5. Another new record was taken by Vella Grat- Itan. owned by Jimmie Given and driven by Balbo Gould. in the sec- ond race. dropping from 2.22 4-5 to 2.17. and the key was found to Roy Shelburn in Race No. 6. driv- er Miller winning with him in 2.1.7 2-5 from six other pacers. 'l'..ast Wednesday evening at Truro Skippy Budlong by Calumet Budlong, won Race No. 1 in 2.16 1-5. whicvh is a new record. Skip- py did not start last season but had started previously and was eligible to the 229 class. A notable performance was the winning or the third race by the three-year- old trotter Cobblestone by Follow Up, ih 2.14.. He is owned by P. J. Cadegan and was driven by Wor- rell Lewis. This was one of the high priced colts bought at Har- rigburg last fall and he is certain- ly living up to expectations, hav- lng raced well in Sydney prior to coming to Truro. He will be seen In action here Monday night. An- other good performance for a member of the Cadegan stable the same night was the winning of the fourth race by Ohio Hal. driven by Worrell Lewis in 2.12, and second to him was Miss Cher- ry Valley that. minus the hopples has been going great'gunr the past few weeks. and looks like a RESERVE ' WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30th. For P. E. 1. Swimming and Diving Finals Summer-side Marine Wharf Sponsored by the Summerslde Y's Men's Club real star. She headed the well known Woodstock pacer Graham Hanover. Johnny Ladner must have been tickled to learn that his former trotter Bud Kalmuck was winner of the sixth race at Truro in 2.16 from a real good field. He is an- other member of the Clayton MacLeod stable: and to round out a wonderful evening Pesrl Bum- Das. owned by Dr. George Bishop and driven by Daniels. won the seventh race in 2.13 2-5 with the three-year-old Cobblestone second and the nine-year-old pacing mare Colleen Adam came within three- fifths of a second of her record in winning the eighth race for own- er-driver Laurie O'Brien, with Miss Cherry Valley (Ma;-Lead) again second. Gay Law (Allen) won both fast dashes. Race 5, in 2.11 1-5 with Single Streak (Con. roy) second. and race No. 9 in 2.12 3-5 with the New Brunswick free-for-aller Rusty H a n o v er (Woodcock) second. Atysydney. N.S., in their wind up night racing meet prior to re- sumption after Old Home Week. we notice where the four-year-old pacer Scofty Boy (Hickey) by Bellini Scott. won the second race in 2.17 4-5. He had taken a record of 2.23 2-5 as a three-year-old last year. He is eligible to the 2.27 pace. The fifth dash with the same star-tersiwas won by Bren- d0n's .Boy (McQueen) in 2181-5. This is the best performance of this trotter for a long time and We are glad to see him coming back info form. The eleven-year- old pacer Mike Budlong (Came;-. on) was the winner of dashes 3 and 7 and in the second of those equalled his record of 2.25 taken last season. He is eligible to the 2.27 class. A new record was tak- 9'1'f by Judy Richard (Andrew) winner of the fourth and eighth clashes in 2.17, 2.18. Among the horses taking new records, locally since our last issue is Bessie Budlong. owned by Alex Beaton and driven by Leo Col- lins. She won the first race last Saturday night in 2.17 3-5, and pleasing to Walter Kelly's many friends was the winning of the third and seventh dashes by Johnny Kalmuck. best time 2.14 1-5, just one and one-fifth seconds off :his record taken in 1948. Per- fect weather and an almost per- fect track were features of Mont- ague's race meet last Wednesday afternoon. Every heat was watch- ed with the greatest interest by the large crowd of spectators. and it was considered by many as one of the best of the season. In the No. 1 classified Josedale Clipper (Mat.-Gregor). owned by Bevan 8.: Barbour. continued his winning streak outbrushing Prince Bud- lcng (Cudmore) in all three heats with Lucky Number and Eleanor G. fighting for third place. In the No. Classified Billy Burt drove. a nicely rated mile with All American 2.07 the winner with Van”? L011! (Lowery) 2-3-2: Lela Budlong (Collins) 3-2-4; Bee Bud- lonz (Hennessey) 4-4-3. The first heat was the fastest of the after- noon-2.122-5 and the second heat equalled the fastest time made by Josedale Clipper. In the No. 3 Classified Rosalie Hooper came from fourth place to win in a splendid drive by Walter Craig in a photo finish from Feather Dust- er, Dorothy Won't Tell. that had made the pace the largest part of the mile was third and Lily Mar- lene fourth. In the next lieat Fea- ther Duster won in 2.14. which equalled her record. with Rosalie very close. Miss Commando (Llew- ellyn) third. Lily Marlene 4, Mar- jorie Bud-long 5. In the third heat Feather Duster had the pole and went away very fast keeping the lead the entire mile, finishing in 2.12 4-5-a new record and a mighty creditable one for the iroiter by Abbe Worthy 2.05 and out of Dude Potempkin 2.0'lV4. Rosalie Hooper was just nosed out with Marjorie Budlong 3. Miss Commando 4 and Dorothy Won't Tell 5. Owner Lester Johnston certainly has a trotter that he can be proud of in Feather Duster and her winning performance was due in a large measure to the skilled driving of Willard Kelly, who kept Continued on page 7 firms SPORT 3:1 Q-I1. PAGE SIX T It is going to be a busy pro- gram of sporting activity over this 'weck-cnd, and an even busier week of sporting entertainment for local enthusiasts when the Old Home Week and Provincial 'lxhib- ition specialties will get rolling here on Monday for a full five days of horse racing. vaudeville, stock shows and midway enter- fainments. I I I The week-end build up to Old Home Week will feature horse racing. baseball. golf and tennis as the leading attractions. There is no need to elaborate on the event that will highlight the horse rac- ing. It will be the regular Satur- day night 10-dash program over the Exhibition Raceway when a large list of smart pacing and trotting entries will battle it out under the arc lights over the mile distance in what is expected to be another of the many successes staged there already this season. I I I Although being more or less out of the spotlight for most of the summer as a special attraction, tennis will be a big feature over the week-end at both the Char- lottetown and Knights of Colum- bus courts located in Victoria Park. Underway since Wednesday. the Prince Edward Island Closed Tournament and. Championships will be the leading feature at the Charlottetown Club during today and tomorrow when the men's and ladies' singles semi-finals and finals are expected to be played. while many other matches in men's and ladics' doubles and mix- ed doubles will be run off. a . . No less important to those who will be competing, will be the windup to the Knights-of Colum- bus Club tourney which has been underway there all week, and is expected to see at least its senior men's and ladies singles titles de- cided and many doubles events narrowed down to semi-final and final rounds. Whether it be the Provincial or K. of C. tourney, or both. that local enthusiasts turn out to see. they plan on witness- ing some top-notch matchts. I I I Golf will also be an interesting attraction this afternoon when. the Belvedere course of the Charlotte- town Golf Club will be the scene of the fourth and final stage of 'the President's Match which will com- mence there at -two o'c1ock.'I'he com- petition. which is 18-hole medal play handicap, with total points to count. is lead by Roger Clark going into today's final round with Don Mac- Donald and Art Macxenzle trailing closely for second and third posit- ions respectively. I I I A double header will feature the baseball at Memorial Field on Sunday when Mcnt's Falcons and Curran and Briggs of the Island bcague will battle it out in regular league fixtures. one will be a seven- innings playoff to their tie game on July 19th. while the other will be a full nine-innings clash as scheduled. The Abbie-R. C. A. F. clash slated for Summerside Sunday. has been postponed due to the fact that the airforce team are playing in New- foundland over the week-end. . . . The Sunday fllts will be highly important ones to both teams. With only a few games left in the regular schedule. a double win for Falcons could be one of the deciding factors in their chances of overhauling the leading C and B boys, who at pres- ent hold a margin of three wins ov- er the' City squad. It would put them within one game of the top rung of the standing. Being a win- ner on both ends of the bill, however, would be a very pleasing result to the Summersida aggregation. It would practically give them the number one spot on a platter at the and of the regular schedule, with practically no hope of anyone over- taking them.

Going into today's final round of the 18-hole, medal play, handi- cap competition. Clark holds a five point edge over Don MacDon- ald in second place. who in turn only has a one-half point lead over Art MacKenzie who is in third position. The competition is expected to be close going all the way among the large number of entries who will be taking part that will pro- duce some smart golfing and low scores. 14 Matches In Provincial Tennis Lurney Some cxccllcnt tennis was wit- nessed at the Charlottetown Ten- nis Club yesterday afternoon and evening when a total of fourteen matches were concluded in the third day's play of the Provincial Closed Tennis Tournament and Championships held there. With matches being run off in man's and ladies' singles. the play was the kcencsf in t.he tourney to date t-hat produced some very close matches and a smart -display of tennis ability. ' Among the feature matches wit- ncssed in.fhe men's singles divis- ion, Flight Lieutenant Nat Levitin of the Summerside Station, scored a 6-0, 6-4 victory over Dr. Fraser of the City Club in a rousing court battle, the calibre of which could not be judged by the final scores. Both men played a free style, driving game that came up with every stroke in the book. and although Dr. Fraser suffered a love-score defeat in the opening set. every point was a battle that came up with some terrific rallies. The aggressiveness and steady stroking of Levitin and his ability to capitalize on it at the crucial points, was the deciding factor in his favor. dcspilte a much strong- er stand by Fraser in the final set that ended 6-4. Levitin won the men's singles title last week in an R.C.A.F. tourney at the Summer- side Station. Another keen match that pro- vidcd plenty of smart tennis was the singles match between Flight Cadet Leonard and Flight Cadet MacMillan, that was forced to three sets before Leonard finally emerged the victor. and was an- other example of the scores not indicating the play. every point being closely contested. The final scores were 0-2, 3-8. 0-2. Both boys are also from the Summer- side Airport. in lad1cs' singles competition, Miss Audrey DeBlols. a former Charlottetown Club champion. won her semi-final round over Wanda MacMillan by scores of 6-3. 6-1, to advance into the finals. Making a strong showing in a match earl- ier in the day, Miss MaoMillan scored a decisive victory over El- izabeth Wlllett 6-0, 0-2, but couldn't match the skill of Miss DcBlois in the senfl-finals. but was nevertheless a spirited match all the way. Play in practically all divisions will be continued on today and Sunday, when the finals in some events are expected to be decided. Yesterday's results:- Men'a singles Second round-Dr. M.

With a list; of between venty and eighty leading entries pos- sible starters in both trot and pace events, tonight's card should be one of the highlights to date this sea- son in the popular sport of night racing entertainment. The program has all the pro- spects of being a fitting prelude to the exciting track duels that will be enacted over the same track all next week. commencing Mon- day. when the Provincial Exhibi- tion Association and Charlottetown Driving Park will present four days and four nights of racing on their Old Home Week celebrations.

The opening game will be a playoff of a tie game played here on July 19th. and will be a seven- innings affair to be followed by a full nine-inning encounter for the Sunday date. The games will be highly im- portant ones to both squads, the results of which may have a very definite effect on how the two squads will finish up at the end of the regular schedule for playoff positions, and should prod-uce very spirited -encounters. Midget Baseball In the opening game of a best of seven series for the City Midget Basehnll championship. the North End Midgets nosed out the East End nine by a score of 8-7 at the Old Diamond, Victoria Park last evening. It wrr. a nip and tuck hnttle be- tween the two squads from the op- ening innings on and produced some very smart minor league ball that promises plenty of action packed games for the future in the remain- ing games of the series.

Qiiiillliil The trout season has entered on its last lap. a. few days over the month to so. for 1950 and there are many anglers still hoping for a worthwhile catch. some have been'lucky and secured their limit on trout weighing from a. half to 3 Pound and a quarter but the majority have to work hard for half a dozen and consider them. selves lucky if they average a half pound each. I I I There have been some heavy runs of sea trout but they do not seem to stand up like they did in former years, Many fishermen are asking themselves the question; "Are the trout getting scarcar?" I'm not prepared to give an answer to that question. on the surface it looks like it but then again trout have a habit of appearing from nowhere just when one has come to the conclusion that trout fishing is a thing of the past. I I I Not long ago I talked to a Veg- eran trout fisherman who patron- izes North Lake in preference to any other fishing ground. He told me that he visited this area early in July. He secured a boat and rowed up to the deep hole at the head of the lake. He admitted that in all his years of fishing at North Lake he never saw such a school of trout running anywhere from a half pound to three pounds or better. They'd roll at his flies and loop over his cast but wouldn't close their jaws on the lure. He went. back to the pool the next morning at daybreak but there wasn't a sign of a fin . . .. they had moved out. Neither were there any marks on the pool banks of Hlcgal activities. I I I I wouldn't be surprised if trout, were beginning to fall off in num- bers. They have been under ter- rific pressure from anglers using both legal and illegal methods. Furthermore the army of fisher- men fs growing larger with each season. it seems that wherever one goes. no difference what hour of the day or night, one runs across numbers of anglers hopefully try- ing their luck. Shortly after mid- night on Sunday morning July 30th a companion and myself left for the Fortune area. At 3.00 A.M. night mists hung low over the alder bordered Big Brook that menndercd slowly through its lone- ly valley. A car was -parked, near Grove Pine Bridge. Two recumbent figures. one in the front and the other in the rear seat. stirred rest- lessly under their auto robes as our flashlight beams probed through the windows. . I I I As dawn drew near car lights glowed like miniature forest fires as they moved along the narrow swampy roads headed for the oc- cupant.s' favorite trout pool. when day broke clear every alder bor- dered pool sported an angler. Most all of them produced anywhere from three to seven nice silvery pan fish that averaged 10 fxiches. By dusk many of those fishermen would have close to their limit. I I I Last. Sunday morning, August. 6th. was not a good trout dsy. A stiff breeze came from the North- Nor'east but nevertheless anglers were out in force. I reached whit- 1ock's as day broke and a cold mist laden wind driving choppy wavi- lets ahead of it. blew down the pond. It was the worst kind of a day for the Vifhitlock trout but two boat loads of anglers were busy leaning on the ours as they passed the club House. They'd have lots of fresh air snd exercise in any case. I I I Later in the day I checked For-. tuna. Twenty odd anglers were having passable luck considering the nature of the weather. Their creels held over one hundred trout. The largest checked would top a pound but the majority of them would barely svarage tires to a pound. Firm. streamlined sea trout of this poundags msko delectable psn fish sna those anglers livid no kick coming. Trout can take all that fly or btit fishermen can throw their way but when it comes to con. tending with nntting and 'j1gging' it throws an entirely different light on the trout aitustion. A not or a 'ik' can do more to a school of trout in a full hour than most Inrlen. ualns II 111. can do to it in a full season.
