Down at Saratoga Raceway, N. y,, on the evening of October 4th me 222 Pace was won by the five- yea:-Did Kay Budlong by Calu- met Budlong 2.02 3X4, dam, Calu- met Bee 2.11. She was driven by Aubrey Rodney and the time was 2,11, The track was not fast that night. The previous night the Syracuse Trot, purse 32,000, was won by Miss Key West, an eight- yeu-old mare by Long Key, dam. , time 2.10. Miss Key West was first or second in 28 races this season, which is prob- gbly as good a record as any chalked up. Her driver was Aubrey Rodney, Rodney's first bid to fame was in 1912 when he made an almost clean sweep of -the richest trotting stakes on the Grand Circuit with Baden 2.04 in by Bingara. This great showing led to his saieito a Russian noble- man for 025,000. a large amount of money in those days.

At Truro last Saturday nisht one of the Marltimes most re- spected drivers, Johnny Conroy, had the pleasure of finishing first in four of the nine events on the program. Johnny started his racing career with the writer in 1912 and with the exception of his years overseas in the army, has continued ever since. He is one of the most reliable and honorable d.rivere to be found anywhere and we are glad indeed to see that the horses in his stable have made their usual great showing this year. The first race he won was with the trotter Rockford by Pag- liacci, owned by Wall McNeiil. Southport, and in doing so he re- duced his record to 2.15 No. Sec- ond was Baron (Kidney) and 3rd Raymond Brewer (Kennedy), 4tli Winnle's Last (0'Meara). He won the 3rd race with Frankie Bud- long, owned by Alfred Lowery. Montague, Rosalie I-Ioopor (O'- Meara) 2. Carl Aubrey Kennedy) 8. Judy Budlong (Smith) 4, time 2.14 SIS. His third win was with Frankie Budlong in the 7th race, Carl Aubrey 2, Judy Budlong 8. Rosalie Hooper 4, time, 2.18. and he won the 9th race with Joey Harvester. owned by well Mc- Nsill, with Babe Britten (O'Mesre) 2 A:-got Pointer (Kennedy) 2, time, 2.10 315.

This week the racing curtain

It could be described as a glorious ending, with perfect weather and great crowds attending. This was most pleasing to the promoters who had put up real good nurses to race for. At Truro the man- agement also gave. in addition to 82,700 in purses, a magnificent trophy to the winner of the Free For All, which carried the largest purse-01,500, 3500 a dash. The winner proved to be the almost unbeatable lola Henley 2.07 2l5, owned and driven by Clayton Mac- Leod, Westville, N.S. It ended a marvelous campaign for this 13- year-old pacing more. a daughter of the redoubtable Peter Henley 2.02 U2, that was in his day one of the greatest campaigners on the Grand Circuit and also on half mile tracks. Iola's summary in the Free For All was 1-1-1. Seven-Up Direct 2.08 35 Walker) 2-2-2, Victory Dale 2.05 215 (Giv- en) 4-4-4, Single Streak 2.10 (Con- roy) 5-5-3, Hedgewood Chief 2.06- 312. time, 2.10 225, 211 2X5. 2.12- l .

Several records were lowered that same afternoon with Tom Stuart starting it in the 1st race. He is a five-year-old gelding by Calu- met Budlong and is owned and was driven by George Turner. Dartmouth. His new record is 2.16 3l5. Second was Phil Vitals, owned by Bert Steele of Truro. Phil has improved wonderfully since he left Montague a few weeks ago. Third was Eddie Hoosier 218 N5, a three-year-old by Jose- dale Hoosier 2.07. We believe he is the first by that sire that has tak- en s record in the Maritimee. An- other three-year-old that has at- tracted a lot of attention and many are predicting that he will be a real star next season, is La- hey's ,Dream by Jollity 2.04 U4, owned and driven y C. W. Mac- Kenzie. Truro. H lowered his previous record of 2.17 215 in the second race to 2.15 315. Second was Gallant Bobby (Connors), 3rd, Lombardy Peter (C. MacLeod). The 4th Race saw time almost equal to the Free For All, made by Gailonage, a son of Bill Gallon 1.59 U2, owned like his illustri- ous half brother, Brewer's Gai- lon 200 M5, by B. C. Cruikshank of Halifax, time, 2.11 U5-a new record for Gallonage. The former Grand Circuit pacer. Cari Frisco 2.03 (Walker) 2, Follow Up Jr., 2.08 U5 (Daniels) 3. Still another record was lowered in the 5th race which was won by the trotter Clipper Dale by Playdalc, owned by H. Wisener of Pictou, and driven by H. Harrison, time, 2.15- 415, Winnle's Last (O'Meara) 2, Norman Frisco (Conroy) 3, Lusty's Queen (L. Walker) 4. The 6th race was won by Postman, owned by A. D.

The 9th race was won by the trotter Clipper Dale in 2.17 2.5, Winnle's Last 2. Lusty's Queen 3.

The Thanksgiving race card at the Sydney Sports Centre proved to be one of the most interesting and thrilling cards held in Cape Breton for a long, long time. Like Truro there was a capacity,crowd and several big upsets occurred that made the racing go over big with the fans. The first big up- set was in the Free For All Trot when Miss Eloise, from the Vel Stables in Sydney and driven by Wendy Carroll, finished with a great burst of speed and beat out Great Deon 2.11 (MacDonald) with Prairie Pete 3. Cobblestone 4, time, 2.15 215. The second trip for these horses was at a mile and a half, but it did not prove too much for Miss Eloise. who again finished

first with Prairie Pete 2,sCobble-

The Week at S.D.U.

Last weekend was one of hell

days for most of the students. The tended -- from Saturday at noon to Tuesday .

Thanksgiving holidays

at noon. Some students, whose homes are not on the Island, re- mained here for the holidays. We may presume that students from

the rural communities on the II- -

land weren't home very long be- fore they were introduced to the potato field. There would be little objection raised, since picking potatoes. or any other task con- nected with the potaio industry, is much more fruitful this year than a. few years ago. The prospects seem to indicate that some of us will be able to return to college for an- other year! .

It has been said that scratching the head is indicative of mental exertion: by way of parallel, ”lt may be said that rubbing one's back is indicative oi physical ex- ertion. At any rate, it was the lat- ter operation in which the writer was occupied after coming from the potato field last Saturday evening when someone posed the question: "Did you know that the saints defeated St. I". X. in the game this afternoon?" Immediate- ly 1 queried: 'Whst are the details of the game?" "The game was broadcast. Saints won 5-0. some fellow by the name of Reardon 'made a klck' and another fellow, Coyle I believe was his name, 'went over for a try”' came the reply. It wasn't I very detailed answer but it was a sufficient sum- mary of the game. one could pre- sume that each player on the team must have turned in the best per- formance of which he was capable. A brief examination of the circum- stances would point to such a con- clusion. The name of St. F. X. among Maritime universities is spoken of with much respect in athletes, debating or any other college activity. To defeat St. F. X. in a. football game on their own territory by the score of 5-0 is a feat, the distinction of which we as students of S. D. U. are proud to share with lthc members of the team. When the team plays Acadia at Wolfviile this afternoon we feel assured that the boys can and will bring home another victory. Cori- gratulations and continued success to the coach and members of our team!

There were other activities in football during the past week. On Thanksgiving Day the second team Saints defeated an aggressive Air- force squad by the score of 8-5.

have contributed in some measure to the success of the campaign of this year's first team. This meas- ure we speak about refers to the apposi ion which second team fur- nishes for first team in the daily practices here on the campus. The members of second team work hard to provide this opposition which moulds the first team into football trim and indeed some evenings the former turn the tables on their op- ponents and end up on the top of the scoring. Keep up the good work, second team! 0 O O

To leave the field of athletics for this week, we think our read- ers may be interested in a. brief glimpse of a student's life at St. Dunstan's. No doubt you have ask- ed yourself the question: "Just what is a day around St. Dunstan's like?" We shall now attempt to answer this question. The ringing of bells in all buildings rind on cach.coi'ridor divide the routine of the day into its various parts. At'7 am. the students arise '?ll'ld attend mass. Breakfast follows immediate- ly after Mass and the time for it varies each morning but is ap- proximately 8 a. m. After break- fast the student returns to his room and has a few minutes in which to tidy his room before be- ginning classes for the day. The forenoon is divided into four class periods, each of fifty minutes duration and each separated by three minute intervals in order to allow students to move from one classroom to another. The first class begins at 8.40 a.m. and the last one ends at 12.09 p. m. Din- ner follcws, immdeiately after which there is recreation until classes begin in the afternoon at 1.- 25 p. in.

O O O

In the afternoon there are three class periods which are similar to those of the forenoon and which terminate at 4.00 p. m. Mom then until 5.00 p.m .there is recreation which consists of the playing of the various college sports which correspond to the particular time of the college year. There is a study period from 5 p. in. to 6 pm. Before supper the students as- semble in chapel for the rosary ex- cept during the months of October and May and the season of Lent when there is Benediction and ros- ary at 7.20 p. in. After supper there is another recreation period before the night study begins which ex- tends to 10.45. While considering this routine of a day at S. D. U., one can readily see that it is im- portent to be on time on all oc- casions. Consequently the practice of punituality goes a long way in the student's better adaptation to college life.

Hunters' corner

Continued from page 6 hunters. "rho red fox is no saint but he's an opportunist and takes what comes his way in the line of something for dinner. Consequent- ly he kills a share of nestling game birds and also stalks the ground roosting I-luns in the win- ter nights when the trees crack with the frost and blinding snow drifts sweep across the country- side. .

Farmers have reported seeing foxes carrying hen pheasants to- ward the woods or hillside where their dens were located, and they also pick up the odd nesting Hun.

Last week I farmer from New London told me that last season (1951) at least five I-Iuns had nests aiong a high bank that bordered a narrow sandy road near his farm. One morning he observed some feathers on the road below the spot where he knew a nest was located. Investigation showed that the nesting Hun had vanish- ed, and 32 eggs were either broken or scattered from the nest. Fol. lowing a trail of blood drops he found the tracks of a fox in some soft send and some yards further on the spot where Brer Fox had lain on his (or her belly) endleft nothing but the feet and wing tips. What grieved this farmer greatly was the fact that the re- maining four nesting Hui-is left their eggs. They remained there for weeks as mule testimony as to what had happened in the night. until the crows found them. The surviving birds had evidently heard the commotion when one of their

A few days ago a farmer living in an ideal Run and pheasant country commented on the birds not multiplying like they should He blamed a pack of five dogs that had combed the area all spring and summer for disturbing the birds and destroying nests and young chicks. The increased use of high speed tractors for mowing purposes doesn't give nesting Huns and pheasants much chance The easy moving farm team plugging along with barely enough momen- tum to keep the knife blades from jamming will soon be a memory of the past. Reports of house cats lugging young Huns, and evenifull grown ones, home to their kittens are becoming quite common. Last spring an observant farm lad told me he saw it big tomcat kill a hen pheasant and drag it into the woods.

It is not the hunters with guns that give the I-luns and pheasants the biggest headache. They only have to contend with this factor less than a month and a half out of the 12...or supposedly so. The fox, coon, skunk, hunting dog, cat, hawks, owls, crows, etc.. are on their trail morning. noon and night year in and year out. May- be I'm wrong in my conclusions but I am convinced that we are now losing 10 Huns from preda- tion for every one we lost 10 years ago and that this is the real hot- tle-nr-ck that is retarding the in- crcsse of our upland game birds ...plus a seasoning of poaching.

In the Capitol Bowling Alleys in Summerslde, if you step over the foul line, a red light comes on and a bell rings, and the ball you roll doesn't count. Now why doesn't someone invent a contraption which would turn on a red light every time a baseball passed over the plate between the armpits and the knees of a batter, no matter how tall or short he happened to be? That would take some figuring. wouldn't it? Maybe we ought to get Einstein working on it. Can you jvust see the red faces of our local umpires?
