Wardien was not used in riders exhibition tilt with Tor onto beaches indians wednesday night because of a slight knee in jury. He will see action in Winni Peg along with the other five. Coach Grant held a full workout thursday night and another Light Drill Friday before boarding the train. Of the 30 Grinders on the roster 29 will make the trip. Absentee Friday night when riders will be. Roy Wright Home brew t was one of the closest finishes in the history of the Manitoba open As three former open champions finished within a couple of strokes of each other. Boes at 149, Eidsvig 150 and Tachan at 151. That tells quite a tale of the drama that was enacted at the St. Charles club Friday afternoon. Boes however was not to be denied and while he nearly threw away his chances when he carded an ugly 6 at the 16th, he came Home faced with a ten footer Sid Hill at and the Ball went into the very Centre of the Hole to give him still another Manitoba open Crown. We have seen bogey miss Many such putts and in fact he missed one the night before at the fish Pond event at Fred Triggs Home that was what made him go for the one putt that meant the title Friday. It was one of the Best pressure putts i have seen Boes make in the 20 years that he has been playing top flight Golf. His steady play for 27 holes with out a Birdie tells the Story of the championship that lands in his Lap again with the double Crown to Boot and both Are no strangers in the House of or. Boes. Hal Eidsvig made a bold fight to hold his Crown but visited As Many As seven Sand traps which is the Story of Why he is in the runner up spot although it is doubtful if Hal Ever played much better Golf than he did Friday outside of his Bunker mishaps. He had a putt to go under 150 but did not make it on the final Hole and it appeared just outside the distance that Boes was left with. There Are no Marks taken from Eidsvig on his show crests made to order prompt attention Given to out of town orders.

Open and he did All that was expected of him and outside of his Hazard Jour Neys the tables would have been turned by Many strokes in his favor. Little Joe Tachan from Elm 1 Hurst certainly was in there fighting with All the strength he had and. His second shot on the last Hole from the rough at the right of the Fairway was a classic. Joe put All he had into that wooden shot and it carried 235 Yards against the wind to leave him within Birdie distance of the pin. His steady play was quite a feature the whole championship but the Crosswind was tantalizing to him As he battled it to the last Lap just to miss the Hole after taking a couple of bogies on the 15th holes. Emil Beauchemin played one of the nicest holes on the 15th of the whole Day. He spanked his drive a Long mile on that Hole and placed a 5-Iron on the Green and nonchalantly sunk a putt to card the Only Eagle of the Day of the entire Field. Emil is the longest hitter front the tee that we have seen in Manitoba since the so s when some of the present old timers had brawn and muscle and they usually used them both with Carefree Don in those Days. It was a Fine championship the course was immaculate. I have never seen a better conditioned course. It even had the Fine Nia Kwa layout just a Little in the Shade. The turf is in wonderful shape at St. Charles and carries through with less Effort on the Iron shots than on any course in the District. Picturesque St. Charles in the West end was a gorgeous looking piece of golfing terrain Friday. With the wide open fairways on the South nine it offers Superb land for a big event where you could accommodate Many Many thousands of spectators with no Effort at All and could watch Sev eral holes by sitting still at the 4th Green 13th As played the Morden tournament will be this weekend.

The series has been written for the. Free press by a reliable authority who wishes his identity not be revealed. However All statements Are Well founded and medical Testi Mony can be authenticated by competent authorities in that Field. By trackman medical science s great Advance of the past few years have Bee put to uses on the race trac which the scientists never Antic rated at the time of their disco eries. Drugs which have worke miracles in curing serious sick Nesses Are used by crooked horse men. To stimulate their animals. Insulin is one drug which fal into this category. Laymen a Well aware of the wonders the drug has worked in the treatment of diabetics. However few realize that some greedy horsemen als use it As a stimulant. Some a argue that insulin is not a stimulant but when we consider the manner in which it works on the body it will readily be seen tha it Falls within the Bounds of the concept of stimulants which is Hel by racing associations. Insulin causes the body to us its sugar Content More completed and More rapidly than Norma since sugar is Energy it hat Rall follows that accelerated use o the body s sugar reserves is conducive to greater muscular activity. In the Case 01 a horse greater Speed is possible. Another wonder drug whose use has been Given a distorted twist by the greedy horse Man is i Tsitrin. A heart stimulant it Isla product of the pituitary which medical science labels the body s master gland am is native to the body. An injection of i Tsitrin stimulates the heart increasing the blood flow and there fore inciting greater muscular activity which in a horse results in greater Speed potential. This method of stimulation i adequately covered in racing rules of stimulation which Fork treatment of any kind liable to in fluence a horse s ability to run either. Faster or slower.

Two radio hurlers Mike Rogers and Joe Shaddy were tagged for a total of seven hits. Four of these came in the five run third inning and two in the four run seventh. In the eighth two mis cries.

Spine shrine is simply a less effective form of Ephedrine which has been health with in a previous article. As matters stand now there is no test taken to detect insulin i Tsitrin epinephrine or a variety of other drugs which Are being used to stimulate horses. Many of the Chisling horsemen simply give their animal a few ounces of Brandy or whiskey and any other remedy which will cover the smell of the alcohol. Neither space nor time permits individual mention of All the drugs used in stimulation but there Are Many others besides the ones mentioned in this series. I have covered Only a few of the More generally used and most effective ones. The horsemen who Are using these various drugs Are no smarter than the men taking the tests for stimulants. It is simply that no real Effort is being made to stamp out stimulation. The Only test generally used to Check stimulation the Sal Iva test is catching Only a very few of the most common drugs. Earlier passing mention was made of the use of electrical de vises As a Means of stimulation in the piece dealing with Ephedrine. However it will be of interest to know How a Battery is used on a Norse two Small Pencil Type Bat teries with a finely wound Coil to increase their voltage Are used each with a wire con tact wire at the end. The circuit is completed when the two contacts Are pressed into the horse s neck. He gets a Jolt that scares and excites him increasing the flow of the adrenal glands into the bloodstream. This increased flow reacts the same Way Only not so effectively As an injection of Ephedrine Adenine s synthesized form. Usually this is done in the stall prior to the race the jockey does not run the risk of being caught carrying the Battery in the race. In this Case a wire ring on his Finger with two wire Points which he shoves into the horse during the race has the psychological effect of making the horse think a Bat Tery has been used. He reacts the same Way. It May seem crude but it works and is still very common. Much regard for their animals to stoop so Low. A Man May stimulate his horse but let him catch any one chaining a horse and he will Deal with him adequately in his own Way. However despite this threat of punishment from his Fel Low horsemen the occasional Case of chaining still pops up. Only a few weeks or so ago a Man ruled off the track for life in the United states after he was caught chaining a horse. The Wise horsemen who play the game. Straight Learned a Long time ago that there is Only one Way to stimulate a horse and get the most out of him. That is through his stomach. They give Good feed a Well balanced diet judiciously bolstered by vitamins which equip the animal for a Long healthful racing career. The Wise and successful horsemen do not use the various Means of artificial stimulation which in the end result in the animal being burned out and no Good. The horse which is continually Given artificial stimulation generally is through after two seasons during a which ii May. And it is not. Certain win a fairly Larye amount of Money. When the break ing Point is reached it comes Sud Denly and there is no restoration. A Handicap horse can suddenly degenerate to the Point where he is unable to beat the cheapest claimer. In the and last a Tirle of this series 1 will review the slops which could taken in stamp out stimulation unil to old ii up the bad practices in racing. Victory for Victory gift scatty Kennedy Vic in Fri of j5 Sallo pins to Triumph in the added Lon acres Derby at Seattle last sunday. Closest to the been lodged. Nursery school was officially Given second Posi Tion and or. L. H. Appleby s ohs Odry third. There is one other method stimulating a horse which at one Ime was fairly prevalent but now Las practically disappeared. That s the practice of chaining a orse. It involves precisely what Classy three year Olds for Rich Canadian Derby he name implies the horse is eaten with a Chain. Chaining is stimulant in the same Way that Battery or other electrical device Here s How it works. The horse s ump is covered with a Blanket he is held in his stall. He Len is lashed with the Chain be Blanket merely serving to keep he horse from Marks which could questions to be asked. The orse becomes frightened Conse gently causing an increased flow f Adenine in the blood. This in leased flow of Adenine is the a mutant actually the same Way lat it is when a Battery or other electrical device is used. Chain in is Only slightly less effective Lan an injection of Ephedrine. He difference is that chaining Only stimulates the flow of Adren e already in the body whereas four outstanding three year old which have been playing Majo roles on the Dominion s Racin scene this year headline the Fin list of nominees for the added Canadian Derby to be re at Polo Park on saturday septem Oer 4. While the Premier stakes even of the Western turf year has attracted Many Brilliant stars in Pas years it is expected that 194srunning will be marked by Thi finest Field in history with top con tenders being shipped from Tor onto the West coast. And Edmon ton within the next week. The. East will come r James Speers lord Fairmont n injection of Ephedrine adds Trenine s synthesized form. The reason Why chaining is not prevalent any More is simply be most horsemen have too St vital takes Lead St. Vital Tiger ettes took a one ame Lead in the senior b girls softball league final Friday night bouncing cardinals 7-3. St. Vital now holds a 2-1 Edge the four out of seven series Ith one match tied. The big gun in the Tig Erette tack was Daisy Thompson who lashed out three hits while Mary Silchuk also poled a triple. A triple double and single by Yrtle Mazur was Best for Tiger Tes with Joan Paulson connect g for a pair of hits. Manitoba three mile record set by Sante a Veteran distance runner who was generally believed to be on his Way out turned the tables at the Manitoba track and Field championships at Sargent Park Friday and set a new record in a courageous display. George Sante the old timer of the Winnipeg track and Field scene the favored Don James by inches in set Ting the new Manitoba three mile time of 151 minutes 39 seconds. The former record of 15.4c was held by a. Clarke of Toronto. Sante Hung on James heels for the first eleven laps and most of the final one.
