Old Home Week, which will held August 10th to 15th, and among the feature events that will be presented this year is the 2.23 Pace that drew 49 entries. And in September, the 27th Annual P. E. I: Harness Racing Colt Stakes will be run off..

FOUR DOUBLES

Despite the unfavorable weath- er conditions, between four. and five hundred spectators were present at Monday night's racing at the Charlottetown track and saw a real good program.

The fastest event of the night was the A Pace, both dashes of which were won by Mr. Rock 2.08 1,5, owned by Charles Walker, Lower. Sackville, N.S., and driv- en by Cyril Smith. The times for the mile were 2.17 2-5 and 2.14 1-5.

A rather unusual happening featured the card in that it pro- duced four double winners on the eight-dash . Curtain Rai- owned and driven by Ja- Brown, best time 2.21 4-5; s Lad, owned and driven H. B illis, best time 2.18 the trotter New Forest, own- and driven by E. A. Bernard, time 2.17 3-5; and Mr. Rock,

He is six years old this year. FASTEST MILE

At Lower Sackville Monday night, Royal Onyx, driven by James MacGregor, won the third dash in 2.13 45, which is the fastest mile stepped in the Mar- itimes this season. Here are the other winners: Race 1 — My Clegg (K. Pinkney), time 2.15 45; Race 2 — Abbasong (A. Wal- ker), fime 2.14 3-5. Race 3 — Royal Onyx (MacGregor) 2.13 4-5.

Race 4 — Dynamite Volo (R. Loye) 2.14 4-5; Race — Cardinal Eche (W. Baker) 2.19 3-5; Race 6 — Abbasohg (L. Waller), time 2.14 4-5; Race 7 — Licking Time (A. Porter) 2.14: Race 8 — Hi There (L. McHugh) 2.16 15 (a new record).

It is altogether likely that Roy- al Onyx would have won the oth- er event in which he started, but his head struck the gate. Licking Time was purchased early: this spring in the Western United States. ‘He took a_ three-year-old record of 2.09, and is by Good Time 1.59 2-5. He is owned by Heber M. Sweeney, Bridgewater, N.S., who has owned some of the fastest horses ever brought.to the Maritimes, including Toll Gate 2.00 4-5.

In a telephone conversation with race secretary, J. F. Cruik- shank, he told us that the wea- ther was fairly good and they had a big crowd. The new pre- siding judge, Allison A. Grillo, of Edison, New Jersey, U.S.A., of- ficiated, and did an excellent job.

CINCINNATI (AP) — The hit- ting of Hank Aaron of Milwaukee Braves and the pitching of Har- vey Haddix of Pittsburgh Pirates gave them a tie Tuesday for the National League's first player of the month award for 1959. The award covers play during May. League presid Warren Giles announced that A | and Haddix each received 17 votes from the 40 - man committee of baseball writers and broadcasters who cover league games daily.

Only two other players figured in the voting. Elroy Face, the Pirates’ relief pitching star, re ceived four votes and two went to Johnny Logan, shortstop for the
