Our racing friends in Chatham have been improving the track the past two seasons and will spend considerable money on it this Spring.

To the writer Mr. Holdsusy’: passing is o! more than ordinary concern because in all my con- tacts with him I found him a thorough gentleman. a narncss horseman one really enjoyed com. Dcting against and a welcome vis- ibor to any race meet. He will be principally remembered ln Charlottetown because of theper- formance of Bud Wcnger, raced for him by Earle Avery. Bud Wcngcr sci. up a new track room-d nt Woodstock of 2.05% which was later rcduccd to 2.05 by Ray Hen- lcy 2.02‘... Two wccks later on August 20th, 1936 in a great free for all contest with Calumet Bud- long 2.02%. Bud Wenger lowered the track pacing record at Char- lottetown to 2.05% where it still remains. But. Mr. Holdawayu greatest success was with the troticr Love Song, raced for him by Earle Avery. Love Song dom- inated the trotting events on the Maine circuit and was sold for $10000 and later that season was given a record of 1.59%.

We arc glad to hear from our friend P‘. D. Tweedy. Secretary of the Woodstock, N. 3., race track, who states that he has already received many entries for their stake race, three of them being from Prince Edward Island with others expected. Mr. Tweedy slates that the fire cleared out all the horse stab1es...."Howcver. when the military gave up the use of the grounds tlfere were a number of buildings scattered a- round which are being moved back and will make excellent housing for about 60 race horses and plans are to build more stables this Spring. The infield has been levelled and the track will be fenced and Mr. Tweedy believes it will be faster and bet- ter than ever in ifs history with a lot more surface on it. Jim Smith has ten of the Avery hor- scs at thc track now and ls jog- ging them every day. ‘They are in great. shape and with condit- ions being as they are early train- ing can be expected in the Spring. Robert Hamilton also has four horses in his barn that will be trained by him and J. H. De- Witt has three. Bob Brown has a very promising green pacer that he purchased at the Harris- burg salc. She is in Hamilton's cars. All in all prospects look good for thi- summer's racing." Thanks, Mr. Tweedy. and best of luck to you and your friends in pulling Woodstock back on the

Curlers from the Maritime: and distant parts have been enthusias- tic over the competitions ‘and many have intimated their desire to re- turn again next year.

In addition to the "master" schedule at the Charlottetown live wire rommittcemen through the Umpire in Chief W. W. Lord kept. the latest scores and schedules up- lo-date at the Queen Hotel, the Curling Club and the Forum.

Over 300 guests attended the curlers’ banquet held at the Chur- lottetown Hotel Thursday night. Among the many guests was Mr. D. A. MacKinnon. an ardent curler in the early days of the old Chag- lottctuwn Club and great promoter of the sport.

A visiting curler who occupied the seat next to Mr. MacKinnan asked where he was from. and whcn Mr. MacKinnon replied Charlotte- town the visitor enquired if he knew a Mr. Dan MacKlnnon. When informed he was speaking to Dan MacKlnnon the visiting curler who was from Newfoundland, passed ufl the regards of a mutual friend, Mr. Harry Wyatt of St. John's. The meeting of the pair was a co-inci- deuce, although the visitor had specific instructions to be sure and look up Mr. MacKinnon on his Is- land visit.
