our friend Bill was quite inter- utt-d when the two-year-old trot- tar Victory Mon 2.08. owned by C. T, Black, was put up for sale. This youngster received all his training met driving from Earle Avery and the bidding was spirited, finally mmng at 517,000. Yearlings from the farm bred by Mr. Black brought good prices. Flashy Fingo sold for ;12,oo0, Sunny Mon s'l,000. Earle Avery sl,l00. But he said he was really tickled and surpriseci when the Meadow Vale Farm yeariings wiiicli were bred by the noted race trainer-driver Delvin Miller, were Auctioned.

His investment has proved as good as a real gold mine. Bill did not see all of the Hanover Shoo Farms consignment of yearlings sold but potted down these prices: Edison Hanover 821,000, McCoy Hanover, 37,500; Galahad Hanover s9,000. Garth Hanover 810,000. Knight's Express 38,000, Jet Hanover sill,- 000, Stonewall Hanover 322,500, McIntyre Hanover sl5,000, Harlan Hanover 510,500.

Attending the Harrisburg sale was the well known horseman, Harvey Cormier of Moncton, who very kindly sent us a card which stated that he had also visited the Saratoga Raceway on his way up. We dont know whether Harvey bought a trotter or pacer but would not be a bit surprised if he

as.

our friend Jimmie Flood has handed us some late news from Joe and Mrs. O'Brien. They were glad to meet quite a number from home at the Harrisburg sale. Roach MacGregor bought a nice pacing mare and Dr. Seaman a promising filly. They were introduced to Mr. Camp who bought four more colts including Meadow Pace for 325,- 000. He is a half brother to Tar Heel 1.51 U5 and Camp also bought a Bill Gallon colt for sill,- 000 and a. Bill Gallon filly and a Hoot Mon filly. The rest of the horses at Lexington and the new colts were shipped out of there for California November 17th. The weather is simply wonderful in Lexington with the tempera- ture running around 75.

A release from Harrisbufg, Pa., states . . . The Standardbred Bale cash register rang to the tune of sl,-152,075 during the annual five days sale of trotters and pacers. The final session saw 160 head sell for 3118,1350. During the week 1.- 081 horses found new owners. The total amount realized is slightly lower than last year's record of 31,602,000, but last year the Rey- noidsl dispersal horses fetched al- most half a million alone. Top price for the final day was 311,- 000. which Ben F. Owen of Omaha paid for Direct Sun, a four-year- old by the world's champion pacer, Billy Direct. Hanover Show Farms full consignment of yearling; brought a total of 391139.900, an average of s3,541.

We are glad to have a. letter from Jerry Gillespie, Parrsboro, N.S., who mentions having had a visit from our mutual friend James Read of Trum, and that they had a great time talking horse. He is very sorry indeed to learn that Willard Kelly has retired from the racing game but hopes that when spring rolls around Willard will be back in the sulky again. as men like Willard are not too

The bleak. windy and rainy days of the past week have not afford- ed the football team much oppor- tunity to practice for the final game against Halifax Wanderers for the Mccurdy Cup. This game has finally been called for Back- ville this afternoon at 2.30 p.m. When negotiations" for the ar- rangement of this game began, the Halifax club favored a home-and-y home series but later changed its views in favor of a sudden-deatlrl game. saints proposed to play the: game on either home territory, thel home team guaranteeing the visi- tors a certain percentage of the gate, or on neutral territory at Sackville. Halifax declined to play here under any circumstances, was not in favour of the proposi- tion including 'a home game over there and picked Truro as neutral playing ground. The decision to play the game in Sackville was rendered by the Maritime Rugby Union.

The team left this morning for their final encounter of the sea- son. The Saints' lineup for the game will be intact. This will be the first time in the history of the College that the football team has been in a position to compete fr "supreme supremacy" in foot- ball in the Maritimes and the boys, realizing this, are determin- ed to put their best efforts in to- day's game, as indeed they have been doing all season, and once again bring honor to St. Dun- stan's.

It is hoped that the lull in foot- ball for the past two weeks and the subsequent decrease in inter- est will not dampen their zeal, but that they will trot onto the field at Mt. A. with the same confidence and morale which they displayed two weeks ago. Also, just as they Joyously stepped from the field bearing the Referees' Trophy, we hope they will repeat this per- formance, bearing the Mccurdy Cup.

The last page of a memorable football season has not been flip- ped in the college year book, but already basketball has started. First team has been holding work- outs and although these practices have not been too concentrated due to the fact that some of the players are still engaged in foot- ball, nevertheless, from what has been seen there is reason to pre- diet that st.

been appointed playing coach of the team. In addition to the prac- tices of first team, Gerry John- ston, manager of basketball, has the intramural and Juvenile lea- gues in operation.

It is a bit early to make any pre- dictions but it could be pointed out that the seniors will be meet- ing with stiff opposition n seek- ing to remain the champs. The champions of the juvenile league might well be the team which is most versed in football tactics, judging from the manner in which these games are being play- ed. . . .

The way the picture looks now, st. Dunstan's will not be particl- pating in any intercollegiate de- bating until after Christmas. Al- though the Maritime Conference was held late this year, St. Dun- stan's was in favor of having one of its three debates over before the holidays. However, the op- posing college. Acadia, was un- willing to agree to such a move and this debate will be held some- time after Christmas. In the meantime the local branch of M. I.D.L. will hold regular trial de- bates for the purpose of selecting capable students to comprise de- bating teams.

The feature attraction of the week proved to be the College Drama Festival which was held in the Assembly Hall Wednesday night. This was the fourth time that the Dramatic Society spon- sored such a festival and each of the four college years had pre- pared a one-act play for presenta- tion. The responsibllity of staging these plays rests with the Public Speaking executives.

Chairman for the evening's program was Conrad Kennedy. president of the Dramatic society. The Senior performers were the first group to appear on the stage. They presented a light comedy which typified the carefree man- ner of a cowboy's life, his crude method of choosing a wife with

tthe resulting complications. Sopho-

mores chose a melodrama for their presentation of the evening. This is a type of play that is not of- ten staged now because it is dif- ficult to gain an appreciative audience. However, on Wednesday night the audience seemed to en- joy this play very much. The two fliial plays presented by Juniors and Freshmen, were good dramast and of a more serious nature than the two previous performances. The Dramatic Society was for- tunate in having Father Maddi- gan from Holy Redeemer parish to adjudicate the plays. After the curtain came down on the last play, Father Maddigan, in his

general remarks, proposed con.

Sport Echoes From Prince county

The Caledonia rugby team was disqualified from further Maritime competition for falling to keep an appointment with the Halifax Wanderers. Instead of appealing their case, they "abduct" the Mc- Curdy Cup, and say to the con- tenders who are left: "If you want the cup, come and play us for it." Now everybody is wondering will they get. away with this ”finders keepers" routine.

We can certainly sympathize with the Sydney Millionaires in be- lng done out of a home game last Wednesday. but the Islanders seem to have some right on their side too. This schedule they're com- pelled to follow is a. killer, and you can hardly blame Chamberlain for attempting to make things a bit easier for his boys, by letting them retum to Charlottetown from Hal- ifax, and depending on plane transportation to get them to Syd- ney in a hurry. Of course. they were taking a chance on the weather, but from now on there'll be an element of chance in trav- elling by car, too. If the M. M. H. L. has a ruling on this, it will de- pend a. great deal on its wording whether the Sydney club can win its protest.

These M. M. H. L. clubs are op- erating very close to the red at all times, and the loss of a home game means a lot. Gates are the big item with them all, and hockey fans all over the Island will have to keep backing the team or we'll lose this brand of hockey altogeth- er.

0 O 0 It looks as if Ron MacArthur who is playing with the North

Sydney Juniors, may be forced out of hockey by a torn ligament in his knee. His doctor is rather pessimlstic about the chances of Ron's knee responding to treat.- ment if he continues to play hoc- key. Ron has been working way down in the bowels of the earth in one of Sydney's mines, and says he rather enjoys the experience. . o .

Latest reports have it that Paul Schurman is playing with the sus- sex Juniors, and Mark Delaney was reported to have played some games with st. John Beavers, but

we haven't noticed his name in their scoring or penalty lists of late. Things are pretty dull in

Summerside. Now that the cribbage champions have been announced we'll try to find out for you who is champ in the auction and but- ton, button, who's got the button brackets.

Beavers Sign New Coach g

SAINT JOHN, N. 3.. Nov. 21 - (OP)-The Saint John Beaver Hoc- key Club tonight announced that George (Buck) Boucher will arrive tomorrow to coach this city's entry in the New Brunswick Senior Hoc- key League. An N. H. L. veteran. Boucher coached Boston Bruins in the 1049-60 season.

More Than 1,000 Fans Plan To Accompany Eskimos

By DON MATHESON

EDMONTON, Nov. 21- (CP) - That green-and-gold snowstorm of Edmonton fans scheduled to hit Toronto Grey Cup day will be a blizzard if Eskimos'hopped-up fans all manage to get there.

Henry Singer, Eskimo vice-pre- sident in charge of travel arrange- ments for fans. estimated today that more than 1.200 Edmonton football enthusiasts plan to go east for the Nov. 29 classic.

"This definitely is the biggest contingent of western fans to a Grey Cup final." Singer said. "They also are travelling the long- est distance of any western ex- cursion. .

"Everything that flies, rolls or crawls is being used to go east from here. i

"If it wasn't for lack of game tickets, hotel accommodation and travel space this thing would have snowballed. up. to a move- ment of 2.000 fans."

Singer said 1,000 fans already are assured of travel accommoda- tion aboard two special trains and commercial aircraft. Another 200 fans are on the waiting list for train travel and singer said he is confident all will be accommodat- ed aboard extra coaches on reg- ular trains. I

In addition. scores more will travel out independe fly or through their own projects. one fan has chartered a 40-seal. plane for his own party.

Calgary sent two special train- loads of fans out in 1040. one special and extra sections left Winnipeg in 1950. Last year Regina hdd two extra trains. In these years many also went by air and independently,

To Decide Rose Bowl Teams In Games Today

. By John Chandler .

NEW YORK. Nov. 21 --(AP)- College football rolls into its final big Saturday tomorrow with a ”natural" in Loss Angeles between Southern California and Univer- sity of California in Los Angeles that will decide the West's Rose Bowl representative.

UCLA, rated third in this week's Associated Press poll, and fourth- ranked Southern California, are figured just about even. southern California, beaten the last two years by UCLA, hasn't been in the Rose Bowl since 1948. UCLA played in the Pasadena classic in 1947, its last vLsit.-

ln Madison, Wis.. Badgers can clinch a tie for the Big Ten cham- pionship and a probable Rose Bowl trip by defeating Mdnnesota tomorrow.

Michigan has -the same 4-1 con- ference record as Wisconsin, and meets Ohio State in its windup. Michigan played California in the 1961 Rose Bowl. so in event of a tie for the Big Ten crown, the athletic directors probably would lean toward Wisconsin. The Bad- gers haven't copped a Big Ten title since 1912.
