meeting, the others being by the four-year-old pacer Thunderclap in 1.59 45 and Scottish Chief in 1.59 U5. The trio are all owned by C. M. Saunders of Toledo. Ohio, whole stable is the leading money winner at the.l-iollywood meeting. Scottish Chief 1.50 U5 cost C. M. Saunders only 51800 as a two-year-old and shows prom- ise of being one of the best in- vestments he has ever made.

A 13-year-old horse was a win- ner two weeks ago at Hollywood Park in 2.01 W5-rather extra- ordinary time for a horse of that vintage. other top miles were Miss Frondean's trip in 2.(Xl 1l5. She is a three-year-old and Joe O'Brien drove the two-year-old Cheryl Hanover. by Bill Gallon. to a win in 2.06 W5. This year over sixty miles have been trot- ted or paced in 2.00 or better over U. S. T. A. race tracks. . . . The world's record for a harness horse track holding consecutive meet- ings is claimed for Freehold. N. .l.. where it staged its 101st Consecu- tive race meeting this season.

We note that Theme Song 3. 2.03 2I5 by Algiers 1.58 U2, that was sold to an Italian buyer re- cently for a large sum, arrived by air last week to Join lhastable of Bergami Arrigo nf Bologna for racing. Prince Phillip 2.00, the first two-minute trotter by Darn- ley 1.59 35. is also being export- ed te Italy for racing. Both these trotters will he prepared especial- ly for the Prix de Amerique that will he raced in France shortly after the first of the year. '

The Quebecerl really have the money and go after the good ones. Among the top buyers there is Joseph Couchon of Quebec City. whose teamster is Jules Giguere. who raced horses in free-for-ails at Moncton some years ago. The latest acquis”' by Mr. Couchon is H. B. Chief 1.58 3l5. that was to be one of the big drawing cards for the coming Indianapolis Sale. No price is mentioned but it will likely be 320,000 or more.

Imperial Hanover, the yearling that brought the sensational price of 372,000 at auction in Harrisburg four years ago and was a failure when trained for his two-year-old and threeyear-old stakes but later took a record. was put back into the auction at Harrisburg and was knocked down for 8.400. Prob- ably twice that amount was spent for training him since he was first sold.

Our correspondent in Norton. N. B. writes us that Frankie Carr. well known harness horse driver. is training four horses there,antl expects to have two or more add- ed to his stable in the near lu- iure. Tlinv are Fiaxey Pointer 2.06. Just Nellie C. 2.19. owned by A. C. Titus. general merchant of Norton, (mllowav lw Federal and

We have a letter from our friend Louis G. Nalac, secretary of the Rhode Island Driving Club and harness horse writer for the Prov- idence Journai. This is part . . "The boys that went over to liar- risburg sale are all back and sev- eral of them made purchases to represent them in 1954 at the different receways. I learned with regret of the death of Roger Duncan, who was so long secre- tory of the National Trotting As- sociation and afterwards with the obituary in the New York Times U. S. T. A. There was a nice about him. I guess his heart was not able to stand the strain for he had been a v.ery active man in by-gone days and one whose word was his bond. Whenever he would make a trip to the Mari- time Provinces ln the years past he would tell me all about it when he returned. He had a splendid memory for people and was one of the finest friends one ever bad. This is the mildest season pf the year that we have ever experi- enced. People ars not wearing topcoats through daylight hours here. Dandelions are in full bloom on our front lawn." . . . Thanks, Louis. and we re-echo your senti- ments regarding Mr. Duncan.

And here is a letter from San- ders Russell, noted trainer and Grand Circuit driver who has had exceptional success with his string at Roosevelt Raceway this year. Mr. Russell is located at Steven- son, Alabama, and the writer had the pleasure of a visit to his home and considers the layout for a trainer one of the finest that can be found anywhere. Mr. Rus- sell writes . . . "Your friend R. G. Logue has some very good- looking young material with me and has also sent the free-legged pacer Prince Maplecroft 2.08. Wel- don Carroll has come down with them and plans to bring his fam- ily shortly. The Bannerway colt is a rather impressive individual, acts like he can pace and carries a head full of sense."

Bannerwey was No. no in Tat- tersalls Sale at Lexington, Ken- tucky, Tuesday, October 6, 1953, but was bought at a private sale by Mr. Logue from Clarence F. Gaines, proprietor of Gainesway Farm. He was one of the very tops in the consignment from Galnesway Farm, that had the highest average for colts in the Lexington sale. His sire is King's Counsel 158, one. of the greatest race horses of all time and lead-" lng living sire of 2.10 pacers, 2- year-old pscers, and his dam is Direct Lady 4, 2.07 3M by Billy Direct 4, 1.55, grandam, Dell Di- rect 2.03 1X2. Bannerway's whole pedigree sparkles with speed and his photo reproduced in Gaines-

. ternoon.

sensible looking horse. We, Mari- timers will be hoping that Mr. Russell and Bannerway will make the headlines in the future. and Dick Logue will be well rewarded for his investment.

A friend who keeps a big scrap book brought us in a copy of the Guardian dated August 17, 1944, with an account of the races held Old Home Week the previous af- Here are a few sum- maries . . . 2.19 Trot dz Pace- Guy Ann (Callbeck) 2-1-1: Flo Di- rect (Moreside) 1-B-7; Singing Sam (Smith) 3-2-8; Muriel Hanover (Haley) 8-5-2; Belle of Brooklyn (Harrison) 4-3-4; Lady Hal (Hood) 7-645; Bright Spot (J.

At the start of the upland game season if someone had told me that I would let a. stretch of two weeks go by without giving the dogs a workout I'd have laughed heartily at the joke...but it did happen. Still I have one satisfy- ing mamory to carry me through till the next opening day...I evened up the score with the old cock pheasant that cwckled in my face, and got away with it, on the holiday that fell on the 2nd shoot- ing day of the season. That both barrel mix still rankled and kept recurring at intervals as the time for hunting shortened. On the 19th at exactly 3 o'clock in the after- noon I turned Samba and Gipsy loose in the tract of waist-high aiders that was the old cacklers fortress.

didn't have much hope of a shot. When I set foot in the slders I heard him crow...s. ringing chal- lenge to every rival within hear- ing to stay away from his stamp- ing ground... and I felt a. sudden surge of anticipation. He was a- bout 200 yards away and close by the spot where Gipsy had flushed him out on the morning of Octo- ber 12.

The veteran Samba, winner in many bouts with pheasants, moved in swiftly and I was a good 60 yards back when the old cock rooketted out. of the older tangle. He shot straight up into the blue and then levelled off at a s5” angle. I can see him yet with his long tail streaming behind and every colour in his expansive make-up etched in clear detail in- cluding the opening and closing of his book as he called the dogs and the world in general every name in the catalogue.
