My Part- ner finished sixth. The total han- dle of the pari-mutuels that ev- 1min: was over $100,000. Our friend George has a notation on the back-"Dsle H. paced the fastest half-mile of the evening." We note that among the track re- cords for pacers the 6% furlorigs in 1:42 2-5 and the 1 1/16 mile in 2:14 4-6, the name of Tip Abbe and Joe O'Brien as driver is still tops. One of the outstanding days of all time in the history of harness racing was during the Grand Cir- cuit races at Indianapolis, Ind.. two weeks ago where in about three hours the trotters and pae- ers raced twelve heats that called for the distribution of $96,268. The reason that so much money was competed for that day was due to the previous day's racing being rained out and it was ncase of two afternoons in one. It may be mentioned that permission for psrl-mutuel betting has not yet been granted by the legislature of Indiana eo there was no specula- tion on any of the events, the most of which were stake races. such as 3-year-old trot. horsemens futurity, purse $12,130.00; pace. $9,930.14; 2-year-old trot. horse- msn’s stake, $34,246.08; Drank P.

The Free For All Trot was won by Heart of Cl-Old. piloted by Aubrey Pod- riey, who first becrme famous as the driver of Baden 22051.5 by Bingars. With him he made an almost clean sweep of the Grand Circuit stakes in 1912. Later Baden was sold for a reputed price of $25,000 to go to Russia.

Last week we mentioned the great aggregate of purse money paid out by the Provincial Exhib- ition Association this season. We just made s guess at it, figuring it was over 027.000. Now we have before us the accurate figures fur- nished by Secretary George H. Buntain—s30.576—the largest sm- cunt of money ever distributed by any race track in the Maritime Provinces. Again our congratula- tions to the officers of the Assoc- iation and our thanks on behalf of the horsemen for providing so many outlets which have resulted in the development of a grand bunch of trotters and pacars as well as giving opportunity to old- er horses to race. Many of us are wont to take things for grant- ed, but having been behind the scenes we can realize what a lot of time and effort has gone into the work of conducting the races and Exhibition, but it was worth- while ss it provided many happy hours for thousands of people,en- eouraged the breeding of better grade live stock and the develop- ment of young trottcrs and pacers that will keep our name to the fore as the Kentucky of Canada.

Whit KPWP was interested enough to bring matters to s head before the recognized offici- al voice of the gencrapshootlng public had a Chalice to have their say is anybody‘; guess, a a - ‘Iihls columnist had no idea. how general was the discontent over the clashing of the two seasons until this week. On Wednesday afternoon I dropped in at the Ploughlng Match at Duridas and met sportsmen and local gunners from East Point and Murray Harbour to Malpeque. ‘The first question fired at me was: “What was the big idea of opening the Hun season ahead cl the ducks? Did you want to scare all the ducks out of the country before we had a chance to get a shot at them?” There is a feeling preva- lent thait the game laws are made by a few for the benefit of a few and I think it only fair to this Sportsman's organization to state that the Game Association, offic- ially at least. made no recommen- da-tioii regarding this controver- sial matter of seasons. . s Quite recently I received a copy of the Upland Game Bird shooting dates for Alberta, I was surprised to learn that in Alberta, formerly famous for the number of liuns it contained, the open season on Hungarian partridge is limited to one zone and runs from October 6th to October 30th with p, daily bag limit of 5 birds and a season limit of 25. In contrast to Alberta's 25 day season on Huns. in this Province we are allowed 44 shoot- ing days with a daily bag limit of 8 and no season limit. e 0 e I sm beginning to wonder if we are not getting too generous with our game birds. In addition to the lengthy season allcnved cn Hungarian partridge with sky the limit as far as the season's kill is concerned, there ls a special $10, non-resident hunting license good for 4 days in force this season. ! understand 0X1 good authority that a large number of outside gunners are taking advantage of this generous con- cession and that many tourist cabins have already been booked as from October 1st. O O i Here in this small Province we do not want to make the same mistake with our Huns that South Dakota made with Ring-necked pheasants. A few years back this State was supposed to contain an lnexaustible supply c-f pheasants. The pheasant shooting was adver- tlzed and all and sundry lnvlted to come and shoot to thcir heart's content. Thousands were only too quick to accommodate the State officials and in a few years South Dakota woke up to the fact her pheasants had been killed off to a mere fraction of their‘ former numbers. The game laws were drastically revised. One regulltivn stipulated that no nonresident be allowed to hunt pheasants in the State until local gunners had en- joyed s short open season all on their mm. South Dakota made the mistake nf regulating the shoot- ing ssasoiis to accommodate visit- ing gunners and those who were in a position to rater to their needs. The birds themselves, slid the amount of hunting they could safely stand, were not taken into consideration, I I O It has been this scribes exiperi- ence that non-resident gunners and anglers have a tendency. particularly if they happen to come from a country where fish and game are scarce, to dip into the pot pretty heavily once they strmble upon good fishing or hunting. The letter written to the Patriot recently by a resident of St. Peters describing in detail the luck of a non-resident angler who spent l0 days in ilio Province last summer is a good example of what I mean. I will go into more detail re the contents and certain aspects of this letter at a later date. suffice to say that in this Nature-blessed Province natural resourvcs we have at present or some day we'll wake up and find that we have sold our birthright for a mess of pottagc.

Injured in Tuss- day's scrimmage, Regan at first was thought to be suffering only a. soreness. Shifty Lewicki, believed by many to be the brightest star on Leafs’ hockey horizon, feels he needs another year as an amateur after the rugged bumps arid thumps lie has received in train- ing. He is too young for pro play and will have to play junior this coming season. If he can get his release from Font William he can pick up about $2.000 playing l‘.l the east.
