started by Dr. Dougan of Char- lottetown. Following the races newspapers were flooded with

calls protesting against the decis- ion in the third heat of the free- for-all.

Harry Hirsch! horse, Scott Spencer of Sydney. N.S., won the first heat and finished third in the second. In the third heat the lnlsh between Spencer and Royal Junior was very close and many of those on the finish line thought the Sydney horse won by several inches. However, the judges a- warded the heat to Royal Junior, bringing an outcry from the stands

Fastest time of the night was the 2.07 2-5 registered in the sec- pnd heat of the free-for-all by llcKiyo Cash, owned by G.B. Gay, Moncton. »

Although but 1s years old Ray was one of the kcenest sports fol- lowers in the City and pxovfnol and showed definite promise of do- veloping lnto a fine hookeyist through his performances with midget league teams. Ice skating was another of his specialties and in his brief career had won an im- pressive list of victories.

Horse racing was another of his fondest followings and he was a. familiar figure around the racing

stalble of his uncle, Mr. Walter He-nnessey, and so keen was his love of the trotters and pacers

Sport Echoes From Prince Bounty

There was one error in the list

of leading hitters of the Summer-

side Town League which appeared in the last "Echoes". Benny Grady was given one more "time at bat" than he should have been, and he is hitting .467 instead of .438 as had

been reported. ' I I I I

We have had some visiting base- _

ball umpires in Summer-side re- cently and one of them officiating at Lennox Island Tuesday evening immediately called a runner out for shouting as he passed a fielder who was attempting to catch a fly ball. The fielder dropped the ball but the umpire called the runner out "for interference." We believe the umpire was absolutely right and think it might be well for some umpires to,watch interfer- ence plays a little more closely then they do in these parts. The runner protested that he hadn't touched the fielder, which was true, but the umpire said, "You distracted him." Also true, and the book says merely "in any way in- terfere with a fielder in attempting to field a batted ball." (Rule 49, sec. 8). It is up to the discretion of the umpire to decide what con- stitutes interference, and any ob- viously deliberate attempt to be- fuddle the fielder should ba class-

ed as such. I I I

The umpire in question was Stu Wortley, well-known in Summer- slde for his prowess in hockey, having played in Sumrnerside (lur- ing the war years. His father, Ernest Wortley, a well-known base- ball umpire and hockey referee from Toronto, urnpircd the Blue Sex-Sheen d: Mclnnls game Wed- nesday evenlng and did n fine job. When a pitcher walked in and brushed off the plate after a call which he considered inaccurate, Wortley immediately threatened him with banishment for the bit of sarcastic by-play. Reminds us of a baseball story: In the United States, a game was being prolong- ed by the umpire beyond what one of the teams considered right, for it was getting dark and difficult to sec the ball. The team protest- ed, but the umpire refused to cpil the game and on it went. One of the protesting players dug up a lantern in the club house, lit At and took it with him when his turn came- to bat. l-le was promptly thrown out of the game, but the fans got a laugh o'ut ‘of it.
