lotictown last August. She is gliglble to the 2:19 pace. Last bu; not least is Little Delbert 3.15 1/5, a 5-year-old pacer by Abngr T. CIIIK 220‘ 1/2, Lhlf. qafled 14 times last year. was 3 hmes first. 6 times second and :1 times third and is eligible to the 24 class. Earle certainly has a formidable stable and they are in uceptionaily good shape. A num- ber of us saw Dean Gallon work out Wednesday morning and class was stamped all over him. It will be remembered that he trotted a muning mile over the Summer- side track last year in early July r. 2.10.

As caretakers for the above Earle has secured the services of Teddy weir and Austie Tierney. Both have had a long experience. Teddy has handled some of the best in the Maritime: including the aged trottcr Heatherbell 2:08 1/4, that under his care lowered track re- cord! in the Maritimes. As a driver he has had quite a success aisn. Austle Tierney is a very ronscicntious caretaker who has had quite as long experience as Tpddy and has looked after some at the best that raced in the Maritimes. With the above good horses and personnel. we will look for Earle to have a very success- ful season.

A wunx man that was partic- ulariy well liked around the Char- lntletnwn track this spring is Bobby Harper. son of James Har- pfr of this city. Up until a few [lays ago he was a caretaker with Emmett Bernard and last year he was with the well-known trainer- West-

driver Clayton MacLeod. \'Ill(‘. NS. As a result of being ll‘[l‘l'~ recommended he has Join-

rd ihr stable of Bob Brown of \\'ond.<lnck and will look after some of the best horses in that iirzng. We predict a very success- lul career for Bobby.

Frankie Daniels. noted traincr ul Truro. N. S..who was a visitor here last week. did not return rmpty handed. On the hunt for a promising pacer he purchased the ‘.'-year-old Belwin Budlong 2:1? 1 5 by Calumet Budiong 2:02 .'i/4 ii-om Vernon MacRae, Milton. He is a .24 class pacer and should like a much lower mark. He has been training nicely in the stable of Emmett Bernard. Frankie started Belwin Wednesday night it Truro and was fourth in 2:16 4'5.

The new management who have lakrn ovcr the Bridgewater track li'ld another meeting last Satur- day afternoon. There were eight dashes on the card and fast time us! a feature of several of the units. In the 6th dash John Clear 2:11 2/5. owned by Dr. It. E. .\luri-ay of Halifax and driven

by W. Baker. won from Gallant Bobby and Patchen Volo 2nd, time 1:04. evidence of a fast horse and a fast track. In the previous dash Gallant Bobby 2:13 4/5, own- ed by Cyril Dauphinee. Halifax, llttl driven by C. Connors. headed John Ciegg with Lusty's Queen third. Races 1 and 4 were won ivy Honors High Jinx 2:19. owned by Kaiser it Nicholson and driven is_vCla1'y Nicholson. best. time, 106 2/5.

Another double winner was Sen- itor Faicourt 2:24 3/5. owned by A. Cleveland of Kentvlile and driven by him. He won races 3 and 7. best time 1:09 2/5. Second in rare 3 was Miss Alice Guy

(Connors) and second in race 'I was Lady Hoosier. Other winners were Avalon Gal. a newcomer to the Maritimes recently imported by Heber Sweeney. Bridgewater and driven by R. McAlduff. time 1:07. and Todd McKay 2:2) 3/5, owned and driven by Harold Cleveland, Berwick, who headed Dusty Veivetine and others home in race 8. Time, 1:07 3/5.

Hi-Lo‘: Forbes, harness horse of the year in 1953 and who burst into national prominence by going a mile in 1:58 3/5 at Roosevelt Raceway a little over a year ago. is lame and his season’: racing debut has been postponed indef- initely. according to Earl Wagner of Landover Hills. Maryland. He says the 6-year-old stallion is lame in either or both of his front feet and that daily dia- thermy treatments have been ord- ered in an effort to clear up the trouble. He has been treated all spring for lameness in his right front foot and after a recent work- out he appeared lame in the left front foot. Wagner and his wife have switched trainers, giving the horse -to Eugene Minnear who has had considerable success in treat- ing other horses hy diathermy. Henry Clukey had been the Wag- ner trainer. '

The popular pacing mare Lady Abner 2:15 1/5 arrived at the Charlottetown track Wednesday night and was fitted with racing shoes Thursday morning by Em- mett Galiant. Se is in splendid shape and should go another good campaign for owner Claude Smith and trainer-driver Cyril Smith. Hunter River.

Several bad accidents have oc- curred in recent weeks with some of the top drivers in the eastern United States involved. On the Maryland circuit as many as four drivers are laid up. Veteran Henry Myoit of Columbia. S.C.. is reported a hospital case for some months. Bill Flemming. son of the renowned driver Vic Flem- minl. Ralph Manuel and Jack Boring are also on the injured list as a result of accidents at Rosecroit Raceway. At Buffalo Raceway in western New York the popular 22-year-old Canadian team- ster Bill Gilmore, that had such success last season. received a bad injury going into the first turn and is in hospital for a major op- eration on his jaw. Most of the accidents occurred on the first turn where horses and drivers were trying to better their posi- tions before they hit the back stretch. Driving too close and not giving the other fellow room enough are generally the causes of these things.

Del Miller. who has had the greatest auccesa with colts in re- cent years. claims that Waylheld by Algiers 1158 4/5. bred and owned by Clarence Gains at his farm in Lexington. is the top colt of his stable this year and is ex- pected by him to be a major fac- tor in many of the largest stakes. Mr. Gaines. proprietor of Gaines- way Farm, is now in Europe vis- iting leading farms and race meets in Italy. France, Holland: and Belgium.

A couple of weeks ago we re- ferred to the star trotting more at the season. Lady Dunn 2:00 3/5 and we have since learned that she was sold in the yearling sales ring for 8600 and that her owner. Barney Scholl of Cincinnati. Ohio. has since refused an offer of S50.- 000 for her.

Emerson Ford of this city rec-

ently purchased the 4-year-old

brown pacing gelding nob 01081. by Abner T. Clegg 2.04 1/2, dam Norma Frisco by Lusty Frisco 2.07 1/4. from Alyre Pineau of South Rustico. Bob showed up well as a 8-year-old and took a record of 2.17 2/5 and had money winnings of 3706. He is now in the stable of Cyril Smith who raced him last year. Friends of Emerson wish Bob Clegg the beat of success this sea- SOH.

We were talking to a friend of Roach MacGregor yesterday and he informed us that Roach has as usual been getting along quite well. Last week he won a sec- ond and two thirds with My Dar- ling. the miles being around 2.13. and he had also won with Lucky Number. Josedale Clipper 2.08- 1/2 haa been sold and Roach has added to his stable Sir Peter L. 2.09. I pacer by Dean Grattan. eligible to the 22 class. and the

7-year-old trotter Tonamlte by- Wiimington, eligible to the 30 class.

. The very likeable tnd enthusias- tic Cape Breton harness horseman. P. J. Cadegan. is expected to ar- rive at the Charlottetown track early next week bringing with him his free for all pacer Lucky Chief 2.04 1/5. that dead-heated with Prince Maplecroit 2.08 at Old Home Week, Charlottetown. in the Free For All pace. time 2.08 1/5; Com- ing also is the trotter I-‘laxscot 2.08 1/5 that was a winner at Char- lottetown last year. There ahould be some real hot racing later on when Lucky Chief. Royal Value 2.04 2/5. owned by Walter Hen- neasey. Honest Abbe 1.00 1/5. owned by Jack Curran, Summerside. Babe Britton 2.08 1/5. winner of twelve races last season. and others hook up.

The work done on the Truro track has shown its value very quickly. Last Wednesday night Shelby Vic 2.10 2/5 .owned and driven by J. E. Given of Halifax. headed Tonymite (Turner), Mjy s_ 'Gratt.an (Wisener) and others home in the 3rd race. Time. 2.12-- the fastest mile trotted or paced in the Maritimes this season. In Race No. 7 with the some field May driven by H. Wisener, Pictou. head- ed the others home in 2.13. May is by the Maritime owned sire Ginger by Volomite .and last year she was ten times first. four times second and six times third and started this season as a 23 pacer. We Predict 2.10 for her.

Other winners were — Races 1 and 4. Dudie Dale, owned and dlrven by George Turner. Dart- mouth. best time 2.18 4/5. Nancy Britlon (Daniela) was second in Race 1 and Fraser Scott (LeBlanc) second in Race 4. Tom Stuart, own- ed and driven by Don Turner, won Race No. 2 and was second in Race No. 9. Time. 2.16 4/5. Andy's Right, owned by Earl Burgess of of Halifax and driven by Carter, was 2-1. Time. 2.10 4/5. George Turner also won Races 5 and 8 with Patrick Budlong. best time 2.18. It was a field night for George Turner who won four races.

The saint John Raceway drew one of its largest attendances for a night harness race meeting in the past two seasons Wednesday -night. when 2.600 paid spectators saw a real good card with some excellent finishes. Star of the night was the cx-Ohio pacing mare Thelma. Lou 2.06 2/5, thst won the 4th and 8th daahoa from the fastest field in 2.14 1/5 and 2.15 2/5-—oniy two seconds away from the track pacing record set up last year by Abbe- land. Thelma Lou is owned by D.

Today the season on ducks opens on October 10th and closes on December 5 . . of less then two months duration. Legal shooting hours between one half hour after sunset and one half hour before sunrise. Live birds as decoys are prohibited and the daily bag limit has been reduc- ed to 8. a fraction under one third of use original quota. Pump guns and automatic: are restrict- ed to 3 shells. one in the chamber and 2 on the magazine. There are other restrictions such as the sale of game. excepting rabbits. but me thinks one of the greatest wa- terfowl aavers was the law a- bolishing the use of live decoys.

. . . .

On the .opening day at Bloom- in'g Point ponds when the season opened on September 1 the black duck kill was practically sicken- ing when the English Call ducks were used as decoys. One incid- ent is indelibly imprinted on my memory and it happened in 1929. I can visualize the scene as if it were yesterday. The sun was just peeping over the horizon and two hunters were rigged out on ‘The island‘ with a dozen live decoys. We called them English quackers and it was a very appropriate

Next‘ Wednesday afternoon mati- nee races will be held at use old favorite Riverside track. Vernon. and promoter .1. Leo Praught has lined up about thirty-five horses which will be classified to give an exciting afternoon's sport. Riverside races have always been favorites of the public and no doubt this one will draw a good at- tendance.

Night racing starts next Satur- day night nt the Charlottetown Raceway and race secretary E. Frank Acorn has over 100 horses to pick from for eight dashes. No doubt most of them will be double dashes. It ahould be a grand open-
