In talking to farm- ers I have ‘earned that day old broods oi young have been seen this week being led tp water by the mother. Sometimes they nest a mile from any marsh or water hole and frequently sustain heavy cas- ualties running the gauntlet from the nest site to the haven of marsh or river where shelter and food a- bound. One farmer this week left his work to go to the assistance of a brood that a half dozen crow! had ganged up on. He had prev- iously seen the mother. with lit- tle toddlers following in line be- hind. waddling down his lane. When he reached the scene of the commotion the crows departed has- tily - but there were only 3 of the brood left. The mother with her bill wide open and wings out spread was putting up a gallant effort to save her family . . . but it was a loslngfight. The crows would leap frog over her and when she was trying to save one oi her . takes place on the evening of June 29th with a program of three races viz, 2'19 Trot and Pace. 223 Trot and Pace, and Junior Free For All.

The Summerslde Legionairea and Red Box are both being strengthen- ed acoording to latest reports. The Leulon management has signed Bill Mamurdo, who played last year with the Red Sox, and the Red 80x are reported to have secured the name of Roy “Pony" Daley on the dotted line. Daley, one of Summersideu top notch ilingers some years ago. has been cannpaign- ing on the mainland during ‘he last few years and still has a lot 0f pitching ability according to the boys who have been watching him on the mound.

Daley and Daley was a familiar battery in Summerside for years. "Dope" Daley was the member of the duo behind the plate, and the brother act was hard to trim in those days. "Dope," like most catchers, was shifty with the hickory, and broke up more than one ball game with an extra base blow at the right time,
