' Ponce de Leon Raceway manage- ment have come up with stunts of this and a similar nature each night and no doubt it has helped to attract greater numbers of spectators to that raceway. which was not in being-in fact not a single sod or stick of lumber had been laid out for it four months ago.

In thirteen years of legalized part-mutual betting in New York a total of 32.268.801.05 has reverted to the state of New York from the uncashed tickets by pari-mutuel bettors. Now the harness horse papers are shouting for automatic tim- ing. An automatic timer was placed at Roosevelt Raceway last year, It was the first such timer ever used for trotting racing during an entire season and it is claimed that it proved many things. most fr-flip GUARDIAN, CHARDOTTETOWN individuals with stop watches. wan in the hands of experts. is so inaccurate as to allow time discrepancies of as much as four- fiftha to one second for the mile distance. The visual timer is in full view of the spectators and is quite an attraction for them. no doubt adding to the interest of the evening. when the field reaches the photo electric beam as it comes away behind the starting gate the light beam is broken, not by the gate but by the horses noses. The break in the beam operates a switch which sets the visual timer in action and the light panels on the visual timer above the odds board instantly ata.rt.to give the seconds as the horses go to the quarter past. when the field reaches the ILIH-mile post the board takes up the time process again and so on throughout the entire distance un- til the horses again reach the fin- ish wire and the controls automa- tically give f-ull information on the board where the customers can follow every section of the race in seconds and fractional seconds. The timer is also arranged to give the mutuel customers at a glance the exact t.ime they have rernaining to purchase tickets.

Yesterday's Gutoquotei AND 50 THROUGH THOSE DARK GATES ACROSS THE WILD THAT NO MAN KNOWS-TEN- NYSON. 1 ence to the workouts of the Joe O'Brien stable. We have follow- ed these workouts for several weeks and have arrived at the conclusion that Joe has a lot of good prospects among his two- year-olds and three-year-olds and of course he has some good aged horses as well. But this has been a year in which trainers have appeared to us to be more suc- cessful in developing meed with two-year-olds and having them retain their form than any year we can remember of. We have followed the elockings at Pine- hurst, at Orlando, Florida, at Aiken, S.C.. and otha tracks and it really is most surprising the way the various trainers have suc- ceded in bringing along their charges. one of the outstanding perform- ers at Pinehurst. N.C.. last week was the three-year-old pacer Har- old B. Junior by Bell Boy p 2.01. owned by Harold Birmingham of Houlton, Maine. He was harness- ed for the first time last Decem- ber and in a short time has de- veloped a lot of whiz and good manners for trainer Wendell Wathen. In a classified dash held at Pinehurst he was 1-1 in 1161-5, 2.13 4-5, certainly fast stopping for a colt that only had a few months training. Mr. Birmingham owns the sire Bell Boy 2.01 and has been raising a number of colts from him out of well bred mares. He held a sale last fall and dis- posed of quite a number of them and this is the first one that we have noticed that has been given training and an opportunity of showing what Bell Boy can do in the stud. The top mile two weeks ago at Pinehurst was by the S. A. Wathen stables Chuck Volo 2.02 3-4 and Mighty Lucky 2.02 1-5, who were paired in a 2.12 mile. The Wathen's large stable are all doing well and as usual they will have a number of aged horses and young pacers that will be a credit to them. Harness racing will be televised for the first time from Rosecroft Raceway from l,Dumont station, Oxenhill. Maryland. on twelve nights during the 20-night meet- ing May 18 to June 11. Eleven one hour programs and a half hour show will be telecast under Joint sponsorship of leading American manufacturers. In a. recent number of The Horseman and Fair World is a picture of Tommy Murphy driv- ing one of the good prospects in the Allwood Stable at Aiken, S.C. Tommy looks just as natural as ever on the sulky and no doubt he enjoys being back again behind a. good trotter or pacer. He was the world's greatest driver in his day. After winning all the honors and having met with several ac- cidents he retired and took up with the runners. After that he became a partner in a Wall Street firm and now he is just having a little fun on the side at his old sport. Horsemen are ireminded that May 1 is closing date for 16 stakes that will be raced over the Char- lottetown Driving Park track from June 27 to August '7. There are classes for three-year-old pacers, .25 pacers. 2.23 pacers. 2.21 pac- crs, 2.19 pacers, 2.11 pacers and free-for-all pacers; also for two- year-old trottcrs. three-year-old Dalila-.1 is!-.iia'i-1 r-sun Solution To Last Saturday's Crossword Announcing Opening Open Daily 8 am. to 10 p.m. Dealers for- new and used cars and trucks.

All early cloaing events will be two dashes at one m.ile except the Free-For-All whlch will be three dishes. and the money divisions are 30. 21, 18, 12 and is per cent. We were delighted to have a call from Henry Woolridge. 15 Felling St., who brought in a 10x12 photo- graph of the Provincial Exhibi- tion grandstand taken at the races in Charlottetown, October 1. 1990. It was then a double deck- er. a really magnificent stand. and was apparently filled to cep:'.c'.t3'. also the standing room in front! of the stand. It was interesting to look over the spectators. decked out with bowler hats and the ladies wearing very long dresses. and endeavor to recognize them- some we think we did make out. We believe it was in 1911 that Lowe Bros. removed the upper structure as it was thought to be a bit unsafe when hea.vy-winds were blowing. The Charlottetown Driving Park was laid out and de- signed by clever men and Charles Gardiner, one of the directors, went to most of the large Ex- hibition grounds in Ontario in or- der to get idea. It was at Guelph that he saw a main building for the showing of exhibits that pleased him and the one that was burned some years ago was 9. re- plica. Today there are many changes from those of years ago. notably the large number of new stables that have been built for race horses and the aocoii'nmoda- tion of live stock. Other improve- ments we understand are being mooted. It, is certainly a wonder- ful plant and a great asset to this city and Province.

We noticed in The Harness Horse Ilunterls corner Continued from page 0 and went back out that aftemoon for another try. on Thursday a keen eyed country boy told me he watched two men in a boat on a dam land trout at the rate of two a minute. They are reported to have caught 80 in less then an hour and didn't stop of their own free will either. . . . At the moment aninvestigation is under way regarding an angler who allegedly filled his basket so full on the opening morning he had to fasten down the straps to keep the trout from jumping out and then continued to push them through the hole in the top until he couldn't get anymore in. Notwithstanding he had an es- timated 60 trout in his badcet he. like the two men in the boat. re- turned that afternoon for another haul. Approximately 15 is the re- ported catch on the second trip. There is only one cure for carry- ings on like that a one hun- dred dollar fine or. three months in Jail. Whether or not convic- tions are secured in those cases depends on how much the wit- nesses will tell. Its your baby. honest trout fishermen, and you can stop this practice if you are so-minded.
