Away to an early start an eight team city League was in operation through- out the summer months, extending well into the fall. Attendances were on the increase at most every gime and in the final playoffs big crowds were in attendance. Borden also had its. usual strong team and Georgetown, taking the game up for the first time fielded a danger- ous, hard-hitting nine. Exhibition games were played between the three during the seaon that brought out keen rivalry for the ensuing Island playoffs. The City League was divided in- to two sections with Stewart's Bakery and 8th Battery being ro- turnecl the respective winners. the latter team winning the title ill the final setto. Owing to tile lateness 0f tho season the playdowns took the form of sudden-death encoun- ters so as to have plenty of time for the Island playoffs and ensuing Maritime playdowlis, and in this latter case it marked the first time that an Island team had tried for three-province honors. Borden Nationals drew a bye in the Island games and in a two- game series between the Battery and Georgetown the City team cams through winning the second setto on home glouxlds 16 to 15 after being decisive winners at Georgetown. It was a great exhi- bition cf fighting spirit by the los- ers with the odds against them and they deserve plenty of credit for their showing. Continuing their march the Bat- tery team, after losing the opener at Borden 8-7. tame book on their home grounds to will the next two and the title. It was one of the most bitterly fought series in Island sport history and .t was the bril- liance of the Battery outfielder-s in the final game that decided the issue in favor oi the city team. But whell- the Islanders met Moncton Eatcns in the Maritime semi-final’ it was inst a matter of being really outclassed by a smart- er aggregation. They lost both tilts by lop-sided scores but by so doing gained a lot, of experience that should be a big help when next season rolls around. iié 9K 5K lit BIKE RACING Lloyd Bi-yanton captured for the ‘ successive year tho Bike Shop ten mile bicycle race beating out, a fast field in the i~cord time of 28:08 in the final quarter mile on the|C.

Of coiusc the Ohio tracks are fast and the air is light, which are contributing fac- tors, but even with these advant- ages they must have boon excellent horses and thoroughly trained to show so much speed so early in the season. As usual a great many colts were trained in Florida but the majority of those with futurity engagements were wintered in the north. Now that the season is over we can sit back and sum up the advantages or disadvantages of each location. 0n performances and winning: the northern trained colts and fillies have the call. It was in Ohio where Lord Jim 2.00‘; and Musclcione 2.00% as well as other good colts received their winter and spring exercise. In the winter they were often up to their knees in snow and that this did not injure them is shown by the marvelous campaigns they and others put up. The three-yeur-old colt Vitamins was trained. at Harrington, Dela- ware, where at times zero weather allowed itself, yet lie took a record of 2.00%. Various other instances could be given which shows that climate is not such an important factor, that tile big thing is to have the right kind of animal and the right trainer. Geiting back to the worth while performances during the season on American tracks we would say that the most outstanding performance by an aged pacer was staged by Cold Cash, ssven-ycsr-oid son of Peter Vclo 2.02, who broke three worlds‘ records in a single race and took o. record of 1.58%. Other aged pacer; that stepped into the two minute list were Lady Vcniall 1.5914 and Colonel Tom 2.00. The best of the fonr-ycer-old pacers was the gelding Calumet Dubnque that Henry Thomas marked in 2.0M at Syracuse, N. Y. September 3rd. The four-yoar-old filly Miss ChfilTV Mae was the best of her class with a record of 2.03". taken at Gosherl, N. Y, August 18th. The fastest of the four-year- old colts was the beautiful black stallion His Majesty by Abbedaic. that Sep Paiin won nrith at Spring- field, 111., August 23rd, and fasten- ed a tab of 1.59% on him. Three-Year-Old Pacers The best of the tllrce-vear-old colts was the stallion Bud Voio, son of The Great Voio who is a full brother of Peter V010 2.02.
