Our good friend Glen Jenkins writes from Chatham, N. B.:-"I noticed in the Back Stretch where A. 'B. Cutciiffe. Charlottetown, has sold Margaret Jean 2.10V.. and you also mentioned that she had pro- duced two very handsome young- sters. I have an eight-year-old trotter. Sea Forth 2131-5, by Sim- coe Harvester out of Margaret Jean, that I like very much. In the Year Book you will see that he has won over 31,700 and is eligible to the 2.22 class. They raced him through Maine last year and Arthur Shaw of Fort Fairtield told me that he was the gamest trotter he had ever seen. Harry Coleman drove him to his record of 2.13 1-5 and in conversation with our mutual friend Bob Brown of Woodstock he told me that Sea Forth had trotted to the quarter in 30 seconds and came the last quarter in 30 2-5. I don't go in for campaigning horses now; what I like is to get a good colt and de- velop him. hoping to have the same success as 1 had with C01- onel Dan'." Well, Glen, all we can say is that trotters are mighty scaurce now and Sea Forth should be much in demand.

A letter from Matt McAdam of Glace Bay, brings the news that he has bought back from Harry Hirsch. Redwood Grattan 2.12, the seven-year-old gelding by Texas Grattan that was such a sensation last season. pacing a half in 1.02 3-5 early in the season and hav- ing winning brackets in sixteen heats. Matt has always been very fond of Redwood and no doubt it will give him a great deal of pleasure to have him back. Matt believes this has been one of the greatest summers in harness rac- ing in the Island of Cape Breton. with large crowds at the Sports Centre and Ken MaoDougall do- ing a good job as manager and receiving excellent cooperation from the horsemen, but he says it is very hard to pick a winner!

It is rumored that the three- year-old pacer Resourceful 3. 2.15 2-5, by His Majesty 1.5956, has been sold by Heber M. Sweeney of Bridgcwatcr. to Harry Hirsch. He took a time record of 2.19 2-5 at Charlottetown last fall as a two-y'ear-old and good judges are predicting a great career for him.

"There is no better way to clar- ify "Knotty Problems" than through the ouestion and answer depart- ment". states Billy Evans, the auth- or, "Here are a number of situa- tions, all correctly answered. The rights of a batter are many and equally important." Do you knew them? Whether you do or don't. here are a few of them anyway.

"Why is it when the batsman hits a ball in front of the plate. that is apparently fair and it then- strikes the batsman In his box, that the ruling on the play is al- ways foul? The batters box is practically entirely in foul terri- tory. when such a ball hits fair and rebounds, striking the batter, umpires figure the batsman dill not have a chance to get; into fair territory, so quickly did the play happen that the ball must have hit. the batter in foul territory and therefore is a foul,

"If the batter hit 5 ball that rolled only a few feet, settling in fair territory in the direction of first. and the batarnan ran into the ball, what would be the proper rul- ing? The fact: that the batsman run into the ball rather than being hit by the batted ball while it was still in motion. does not affect the decision. The batsman must be called out for being hit by a bat- ted ball.

"If the batsman hunted lie ball and then, after taking a step or two on his way to first. again hit the ball wlth.the but while still in his hands. what about it? Hitting a ball a second time with the bat must be construed as interference and the batsman called out for his action.

"The batter hits at ball that strikes several feet foul and then rolls into fair territory and settles between third and home. What is it, a fair or a foul ball? It is a fair ball. The fact that it first strikes foul means nothing: It is where the -ball finally settles between home and first or home and third. In this case it finally settled in fair territory and is a fair ball.
