COWII TIIE BACK STRETCH ¢__._._ Everyone intorestcd in thcbreed- m3, racing and training of colts should attend the annual meeting 0g the Prince Edward Island Har- ms; Racing Club which will be held 1n the City Hall Building. Charlottetown, at eight o'clock next Tuesday evening. The Futur- mes promoted by this organiza- tion have been the means of de- veloping a great many good trot- ters and pacers and among them some stars and this has turned pic spotlight on the Garden oi the Gulf, resulting in sales at higii prices to American buyers. - O O O O Two admired youngsters at the provincial Exhibition track are a yearling by Playdale 2.04%. out of an Axworthy dam. owned by Ray Keenan. and a two-ycar-old rolt. by Playdale out of Jane Asoi! 1.591s’, owned by Willard Kelly. It will be remembered that when Jane was shipped to William Mur- ray, Bonnie Brae Farm, Ohio, she was in foal to Playdale and the agreement was that the resulting ical should be shipped back to charlie Horton. O O'O O Since Meht Whitlock went on his holidays we have been unable to secure copies oi the Boston Post an keep up with the doings at Pox oro. Our good friend George R. MacDonald of Boston, has. however, sent us the results oi last Saturday night's events. in the first heat oi the Free For All. Frisky Lee won wit Tip Abbe second. time, 2.11 4-5 i the mile. In the second heat Tip Abbe won. Roscoe Hanover second. FriskyLee third, time 2.11 4-5. The 2.20 class was won by Money Maker, '1‘op Hanover second. While we have not any figures to back it up we are oi the opinion that Money Maker is the leading race winner at Foxboro. He has consistently placed first almost every week since racing started and sometimes twice a week. As our readers all know. Tip Abbe and Money Maker are raced by Joe O'Brien. O O O O Dr. Heath McIntyre and Phil Cobb and their wives arrived back early this week from an automo- bile trip which took them as far south as Nashville, Tenn. They left the qarden of the Gulf on Friday the 18th and motored to New York, where they looked in on Roosevelt Raceway one night and were much impressed with the wonderful appointments of the track and the orderly manner in. which the racing was conducted. There was nothing spectacular in the finishes and no very fast time but it was good average racing. The night was quite chilly but there was quite a large turnout of people. . O O O O The next stop was at Washing- ton and they had a good look around that beautiful city; thence to Baltimore where the Doctor had spent several years at the Univer- sity oi Maryland studying dentis- try. One of his classmates is now the Dean and he gave them a warm welcome and spoke of many oi the classmates who had been iriends. The next stop was Lex- ington. Kentucky, where the Wal- nut Hall Farm sales were being held and. wonderful prices were realized for the yearlings. They met Clarence Gaines, proprietor 0i Gainesway Farm and he gave them athorough showing of the 181m. the stallions and the colts. The Doctor said they were the most wonderfully developed colts he had ever seen, not a blemish on one of them. I-le saw Jane Azoifs filly by Cardinal Prince that was being sold, and also Jane herself with weanling foal by Royal Napoleon 2.00%. She looked my happy and contented. O O O O Prices for yearlings at these sales were as expected, very high, and many oi them brought over $10,000. They witnessed two days lacing but it was bitter cold. the result of the tropical storm which hit Florida a few days previously. Among the drivers they met were 5B1) Palin and Jake Mahoney. They looked over Sep‘s stable and were accorded every courtesy by caretakers. O O O O At Nashville. hnneseas, lay visited the famous Toiley Farm where Walter Direct sired Napol- '-‘0li Direct 1.50, sire oi Billy Direct 1.55 as wellas many others. Returning home they stopped at Louisville. Kentucky, and visited the famous race course, Churchill Downs. where the greatest thor- Wghbreds in the world have per- rmed. A guard conducted them Hound and showed the wonders l)! the place which at present is Ilvscd to racing. The remainder of the _trip home was pleasant and the travellers were delighted with What they had seen and the good friends they had made. O O O O Dufierlh Park.

A great eflort will be made‘ to bring in American horses and probably quite a number will race there as the U, s, A, snag; will be closed in November. The writer lraced over DuiIerin Park track in 1914 one day when the thermometer was five below zero. Nothing stops racing there. neith- er mud. snow or cold. We re- member racing Fred Medium one muddy day‘ in November, 1927. Arriving late at the track I had no time to don proper equipment and just after the word Go was given and we were in the second tier, hunks of mud hit my glasses and I raced blind that heat, most- ly well on theoutside. Next day a turf scribe criticized me ior go- ing such a wide mile. It is no cinch to race at Toronto but it is good fun if you are properly eq- uipped and have the goods. O O O A large number of horses were put to death at Rockingham Park, Salem, N. 11., recently where there was an outbreak oi swamp fever (infectious anaemia). They were injected with strychnine and bur- ied in quick lime. Owners have been compensated by the Thor- oughbred Racing Association but some oi them refuse to permit their horses to be killed, claiming that the compensation is not sui- flcient. So feared is this epidemic that Hanover Shoe Farms and other breeding centres will not take in any more brood mares until the very cold weather ar- rives. It is supposed to kill the bug. O O O O 'I'he chances drivers take and the serious consequences that can happen is well illustrated in the case of Lew James, popular Lon- don, Ontarlo reinsman who took the place of the regular trainer and driver behind victory Grattan at Aurora Downs, Aurora, Illinois, recently. Victory Grattan scored from eleventh position on the ex- treme outside oi the track in the second tier and went the overland route for the first half oi the mile. At the half Lew took him out and tried for the top. racing very fast well into the turn. There the Grattan horse stuck his toes in and somersaulted Lew into the path of the field. three horses pil- ing over him. At hospital his in- juries showed a severe break in the upper bone oi the left arm, the bone being crushed and driven into the shoulder socket. There were also some other serious in- juries. victory Grattan had been a reliable horse until some weeks ago when he commenced lo “do" things. Such horses are s.’ men- ace and most drivers know about them. but evidently Lew James didn't. O O O O Jimmie Power. well known tax! proprietor, is taking a number of horsemen with him to the ninth annual auction oi the Standard Bred Horse Sales Company at Harrisburg. November 5-6-7. They will leave a few days prior to that in order to look over the horses and get the low down on them. It won't be a bit surprising if Jim- mie returns with a good one. For years he was one oi the mainstays oi the sport and in our capacity in connection with the Exhibition. found him always ready to help out by giving up stalls or doing anything that would make it eas- ier for us. Jimmie's return to the sport will be a popular one. O O O O . We understand Dr. 1".C. Dougan will also go to Harrisburg and perhaps he will be a buyer too. It will be remembered that last year ha bought Josedale Clipper 2.09. There is plenty oi good stuff of- fering at Harrisburg but no doubt there will also be plenty of buy- ers to drive.the prices up. ' O O O O Rankin Mcbaine told us he was listening in to Roosevelt Raceway last Saturday evening and the finish oi the Free For AllPsce was so close between Zam 2am and Joe Scott with the mile in 2.05 that the Judges called for a photo finish. Aiter studying it for a minute or two they called for an- other and finally for a third. With each one carefully studying the photos they came to the conclus- ion that it was a dead heat. O O O O The past week races were held at Blue Acres track, New Glasgow. with three classified events. No. 1 was won by Jean Henley 2.08% (Smith) with 1-1-2; Scotty Bud- long (Weir) 2-3-1, two other start- ers. best time 2.11 1-5 by Jean Henley.

The second game of the best two out oi three series for the Island Softball Championship will be played‘ at Victoria Park Sunday afternoon. The Charlottetown team won the opener from the R.C.A.F. squad at Sumimerside by a S-Tscore. O O O On Monday Thanksgiving races will be held at the Riverside track. The card will mark the end of harness horse racing for tihe sea- son i-n this Province. Commencing July 1st a series oi successful rac- ing events has been held on Is- land tracks and judging from the standpoint of attendance and com- petition offered have been every bit as successful and up to the standard oi previous years. It is expected that the closiing races at Riverside will be the mecca for racing enthusiasts throughout the Province. The races are scheduled to get underway at 1.30 p.m. O O O ‘Iihe attention oi local rugby fans will be rivetted on Bt. Dunstan’s University team at Fredericton this afiemoon where they engage the UN.B. representatives in a scheduled game of the Inter-collegi- ate series. Tihe Saints boast a speedy backfield and if given a chance to break away may prove a potent threat to the highly rated New Brunswick team. Fans here will wish the local college team and coach A. J. McAdam the best of luck in their opening tilt. O O O While the Red and White sire battling it out at Fredericton Prince oi Wales College will be carrying the invasion oi Island rugby teacns onto the gridiron of Mount Allison University at Sack- ville.

Its ‘s. great moment when the rush oi powenful wing beats drowns out the whisper of the tide in tihc salt grass and dark. shadowy forms hover above the decoy; but don't bank too heavily on a fat nicely browned black duck In the pan untl you have tzhe bird in your hand. There was a good hatch of ducks this summer but one would hard- ly think so at the present time There has been a marked decrease iii number of ducks in inland areas since October came 1n. Since Sep- t-zmber 29th the countryside has re-echoed to the roll of gunfire from hunters after Hungarian '-~~t- tar-c and this may account for the bulk of the blacks being ‘raited’ 1.. iIJE.‘ tidal flats and estuaries with a considerable number of them lying well outside. A few favoured inland points wll produce good sport on the opening day but it is a foregone conclusion lhai the bulk of the ducks shct on the 16th will be taken on the salt marshes and rivers. A black duck taken on the opening day this Mrs-o" will be a 'pr ze worth carry- ing home. A couple of days ego I . myself watching a flack of . -¢-..-<. 153 feeding along the (dge of a sandbar about iihree gunshots czi shore. I turned a powerful pair of Field glasses ( a souvenir from the 1st Great War) on them and they looked as big as brant. From all appearances they were fat and heavily plumaged. Some of them reminded me oi barnyard ducks as they waddled along the Bar with ther broad beamed breasts almost scraping on the sand. I'd be willing to bct a tidy sum that some oi them would tip ihe scales at iour pounds - four pounds of lip smack- ing deliciousness. Here is something for you to r0- lmecnber — duck hunters. The daily bag limit on ducks is 7 - exclusive of Mergansers (Shell ducks) and the possession limit is 14. Another little point worth keeping in mind: legal shooting starts at 1-2 hour before sunrise and ends at 1-2 hour after sunset. Be sure to check up on the Guardian or tide table before you start out and find out what time the sun sets on the evening of October 16th. Ofihand I'd hazard a guess that the dead line on the evening of the opening da will be around 5.4.5 perhaps c ling it a quarter to 5 will be more understandable for most of the hunters. Blue-wing teal and Ring-necked ducks are thinning out fast, as both these species leave early in Oct- obcr for the south. and hopes are becoming dimmer w.t.h each pass- ing day liiat many. if any. will be bagged on the 16th. The Blue- wih; teal has always been regarded as tops as a table duck. The Ring- hecked duck is a plump well flavoured bird but not In the same class as the Blue-Wing. The hardy Greeri-whg teal. on the other hand will st ck it out until the hard frost comes. The odd flock of Canada geese have been reported and some luckv gunner may have the chance oi bagging one or more of the bi; hoiikers. It is expected that the black duck will make up 90 per cent, of the total kill oh one c-pening day with Plhtail, Greenwing teal and Amerloan-Coldch-eye (Whim- ler) making up the balance.
