The fast class will be raced as a handicap which lg a iliwell)’. at _least a handicap has not been. tried for some years. There will be‘ no gate operating with the handicap. Races get 1m. der way at 8.30 sharp and there should not be a dull moment to- night.

_ Thlfiy-eight drivers hold cur- rent season's records. with Dr. H. M. Parshaii leading the pgck with (our records to his credit. Harry Fitzpatrick _is second with thrcc, Gibson White, Wayne Smart, Er. nic Sworthwood and Foy Funder- burk each with‘ two. Twenty-nine stallions have sired current cham- pions. with Volomite having ten to his credit. and The Ambassador three.

Full Bloom 1.58 4-5, that took her record as a ten-year-old in Cali- fornia this season, is back in training alter recovering from a leg injury. The noted trainer Frank Erwin is preparing her for an appearance during the Ham- bletonlan Week at Goshen, N.Y.

Frankie Dale, an eight-yelar-old chestnut gelding by Hal Dale. sur- prised his owner and a great many others by winning a race a‘. Roosevelt Raceway two weeks ago for Joe O'Brien. The owner and his wife were mighty pleased, as one would expect. ’

King Gustave 5th of Sweden. who is a direct descendent of Marshall Bernadette. one of Nap- oleon's marshals who left him after his‘ banishment to Elba, pre- sented a beautiful cup to the win- ner of an open event for Sweden- born trottcrs regardless of age, raced at Gothcnburg, Sweden, two weeks ago. The successful horse was Roland and he covered the 2,- 220 metres at a rate of 2.17% for the mile. His owner H. Nordquist was presented with the cup by his 91-year-old sovereign, who took a great interest in the race which was known as the King's Cup.

The Western Harness Racing Association, Los Angeies, Califor- nia, whose executive secretary is Bernard Kearney, have already advertised their 35-day Grand Cir- cuit meeting at HollywoodTark, which starts October 8th and con- tinues to November 26th. Holly- wood takes up the torch just as soon as Lexington, Kentucky meeting is over and it is probable, in fact almost a sure thing, that early in December Phoenix, Ariz- ona night racing plant will be in operation. 1t seems to the writer that it won't be long before there will be a chain of race meetings extending the whole year around.

A discussion has often taken place as to whether a horse is henoiitted by being let down for some months after a race season. We remember reading the exper- ience of the noted mile runner Tommy Conneff, who for several years h id the American amateur record. Tommy was of the opin- ion that it was harder for an ath- lete to get in condition after a long layoff, that the heart and

off and that an athlete would be far better off to continue compet- ing all through the year. Of course he could not-nor could a horse-be putting forth his most extreme efforts week after week without probably incurring harm.

We remember that great race mare Fern Hal 2.12% that was Billy MacPhersoNs meal. ticket for many years in western Canada. then came to Ontario, raced through the ice meetings at Duf- ferin track and Montreal and con- tinued all through summer and fall. She was always in condition. Later she passed into the hands of Dr. MacAiiister, Sussex, and was raced by Fred Cameron and in 1920 she set a new record for Maritime pacers over a half-mile track at Charlottetown. Just from memory we believe it was 2.12%. Fred continued winning free-for- alls with hcr wcck after week for several years and she never ap- peared to lose flesh or be injured by the racing.

The many friends of Victor Douse. son of the late Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Douse, will be glad to welcomehim back after a long absence from his native city. Mr. Dousa has had a good deal of bus- iness experience and campaigned a stable of trotters and pacers for many years. One of them we re- member particularly was Oswego Boy 2.10%. Vic wps an excellent driver and trainer and very well liked by feliow-relnsmen and oth- crs wherever he raced. We trust he will see night races at the Charlottetown track this evening. We are sure‘ they will prove quite

Youthful George Andrew of the Green Gables Club, Cavendish. won the second annual Maritime High-Handicap Golf Tournament which concluded at the Belvedere course of the Charlottetown Golf Club yesterday afternoon. Andrew carded a gross 94 yesterday to give him a total gross of 178 for the SB-hole. two-day meet.

Dr. Ken Irwin of Charlottetown was the runner-up with a total gross of 184, and came up with a total nei of 132 to lead the field in that department, six strokes up on Andrew who placed second for net. By divisions, Andrew and Irwin lead the A and B divisions re- spectively. while J. O. C. Campbell of Charlottetown leads C division with a gross I96 and a net 136. Stirling MacDonald, City, placed second in the A group with a gross 1B7, while H. Mitchell of Wolfviilc and L. P. Bing of Vir- ginla placed second in the B and C divisions with gross scores of 190 and 199 respectively.

With between 40 and 50 compet- itors pariicipating in this year's meet. the two-day affair was bless- ed with ideal golfing weather and was run off in a highly successful manner. Although the "duflers" didn't take the play so seriously that they couldn't have a bit of fun and banter on the side, there were some excellent scores rung- up nevertheless, with George An- drew shooting the best ill-hole round the opening day with a gross 84 while Dr, Irwin came up with an 89 the some day.

At the end of the play yesterday afternoon, the meet was brought to a happy conclusion by the pre- sentation of prizes by B. M. Sears of Charlottetown.

The following is the prize list: A. Division-Gross: 1. G. And- rew; 2. S. MacDonald; 3. J. Coles; 4. Dr. C. Gallant. Net-l. H. Mc- Innis; 2. D. Murray.

It will get underway at 3.30 and it is the game all baseball fans in the City have been waiting for all season. The first game will only be‘ a seven-inning affair while the other game will continue until the Sunday curfew comes in to halt proceedings. _

And what proceedings there will be at Memorial Field in resurrec- tion of the Old Timers. Baseball mixed with a little frolic here and there will be the order of the day as the forgotten men of Island baseball come back into being. bringing with them some of the now lost color of the game. Never in the history of the sport has so much enthusiasm been shown" over the game. The locals. however. will be out to win the same as they were edged out in the West- ern capital Wednesday after going into a three-run lead.

Hunters’ (turner

‘Continued from page 6

"Natives" appear most plentiful. Children picking raspberries or hunting for the cows tell me that they often see big flocks of part- ridge. One young laddie told me that a. partridge fluffed up her feathers and chased him.

Quite a few pheasant coveys were reported in June and early July but they appear to have dropped out of the picture this past few weeks. The motherpheas- ant keeps her chicks under cover pretty well and with foliage so abundant as it is at present one has to stumble over them before being aware of their presence.

The black duck prospects are d9- finitciy brighter than they were three weeks ago but at time of writing are _not yet up to par. Reports reaching game headquart- ers indicate that some itchy fing- ered gun artists have already burnt powder. Some might be in- clined in figure that “Jim” crow was getting a touching up but last Sunday afternoon at approximate- ly two thirty five gunshots were discharged near the mouth of a creek on a well known duck marsh. An incident like that spells ducks and nothing but...

On other duck grounds reports have been received of suspicious gunshots. It's up to all interested in saving our waterfowl in cooper- i110 with game enforcement offic- ers and report any infractions that come under their observation. Tile excuse that we are saving the birds for the “Yankees" does not apply lo our black ducks...thousands of thorn remain with us the year ‘round.

Hudsonian curlew are here in good numbers but the black bel- lied piover apparently have dal- iied enroute or else their numbers will fail far short oi’ last season.

In my younger days a black rab- bit was a rare occurrence. I well remember well nigh fifty years ago when Bill Hooper caught a black rabbit back on "The Burns place”. Hooper. long since gone the way of all flesh, was quite a character. He had a shack near a spot known as "the Burns spring" and spent a lot of time living there when he was running his line of rabbit snares or huntin8 Ruffed Grouse. I do know that we youngsters were scared to death of him and wouldn't risk going near his shack for anything even if we did know the way there.

Of recent years black rabbits have been shot or snared on sev- cral different occasions. There ls a cause for this. They are defin- itcly more common. In May of this year a full grown black rabbit crossed the road in front oi me in the Fortune area and in late June a half grown bunny, black as Liie Ace of Spades. hopped along the side of a road in front of the car in the Peaks's district.

Anglers are still asking where the sea trout are. I could tell them where a lot of ihsm are. which most of them already know, but I don't figure ti will do any- one much good. I haven't even tried to hook one for a month.

There are times when the per- sistent angler will reap a reward. About three weeks ago two men and a woman were trying their luck in the pool below Crawford's Mill at the head of the Hilisboro River. They figured there were trout in the pool but even the juclest blobs of worms brought no response, Suddcniy a heavy show- er broke out and in the fifteen odd minutes it lasted they landed lovely sea trout. The lady angler held the record for size, landing four that averaged close to one and a half pounds each. One gen- tleman has gone back a number of times since wlthgut being re- warded with a nibble.

A number of nice catches of sea trout averaging around the one and ‘a quarter pound mark have been taken off the bar near where the Georgetown Ferry docks at Lower Montague. Some lovely trout have been caught at Vernon Bridge this summer and lots more are still there. There is nothing certain about’ sea trout fishing. One may take half a. dozen beaut- ies in twenty minutes and then draw a blank every trip for a week. Newman Fraser. Vernon, is reported to have taken s. 5'4. pounder near the bridge last week. I intend to verify this report at the first opportunity. A sea trout of that poundagc is something that most anglers only dream about.
