Wong Ping Shun's Thunder-

Saturday's racing at the Fifth Extra Meeting at Happy Valley was perhaps hardly up to the high standard set at previous meet- ings this season. One or two of the events, notably those in which Zorhan and Royal Flush were entered, were conceded beforehand Mrs. Pearce's Ficcy 157 lbs. to be practical "certs." Zorhan won in effortless style, but Windsor | Mac's Zephyr 166 lbs. Stag gave supporters of Royal Flush a severe scare for a few moments, until Mr. Heard's jockeyship told its inevitable tale.

But what was most irritating was the long periods of waiting between the races, so that the last event was practically a farce, places, 1st $9.10; 2nd $8.50; 3rd of little interest to the public, and of even less, one imagines, to the jockeys, who took a distinct risk in riding in almost total dark negs, Osiris, the favourite, 'was the winner, but very few people on the course could have seen anything of the race, and only thos: near the winning post could have known anything about the finish- ing order.

Mr. H. C. Lee had a very nasty shaking in the hinth race, and had to be carried back to the jockeys' room. It was learned that he was not seriously hurt, but he must still be feeling the effects of his heavy fall.

The Pineapple Plate. for Novices, provided an excellent race, and the best finish of the day, Mr. A. W. da Roza piloting home Young Pretender in far from novitiate style. Mr. S. Y. Liang, on Winsome Stag, gave him a very good run, whilst Mr. Stewart, on San Francisco, nearly sprung a big surprise with a re- markable burst at the finish, on The outside. Mr. Roza's riding gave Young Pretender's backers a handsome dividend of $62.20. This was eclipsed later, in the penultimate event, the Customs Handicap "D" Class. In this race, that popular rider and sportsman, Mr. B. A. Proulx, $10.20. romped home on Shanghai Beau

to pay his delighted backers $94.30. This was a very well-Customs Handicap: "C" Class received win, and put everyone in

a good humour, which was just as well, in view of the next, and final event, when it seemed as if the field would get away somewhere about midnight.

Sweet Dividends! Incidentally, in this ninth race Shanghai Beau paid $44.20 for a place, Peter Guerney, who ran second, paid $23.90,, and our old friend Snaefell, who seems to be the logical auccessor to Done Again, secured third place to pay a sweet little $44.60. So

everyone was happy! Another good dividend was that of Baby Face, who emerged from the gloom in second place in the last race to pay his backers $92.70.

Carnival Eve Off Colour. Carnival Eve did not seem to be quite in his usual form in the Lead Mine Handicap "A" Class, and Mr. Bulteel piloted a much- improved pony in Nationalist II to victory, stalling off a deter- mined challenge by Christmas Chimes. The Eve was a poor third, and the lightly-weighted Pickle was run out long before the end.

O'Moon broke a losing streak to win the second race, whilst Mr. Stanton rode a pretty race on Mike to account for the Lead Mine Handicap "B" Class.

Amongst the Riders.

Mr. Frost had two winners, a second and a third, and Mr. Harri- man two wins and a second, as did Mr. "Johnny" Heard.

But something ought to be done about these long waits!

[A communique issued by the Government of India and circulated at the India Office stated that in view of the pos- sibility of exaggerated and mis. leading rumours, the Govern- ment of India thinks it advis- able to make it known that during the recent disturbances in Peshawar City, when troops had to be employed, the conduct of a small element, namely, two platoons of the 2nd and 18th Royal Garhwal Rifles. was found to be unsatisfactory. The battalion was sent to Abotta- bad, where the enquiry was held. There is a fine fighting tradition behind the Garhwal Rifles. They were recruited at Garhwal and did well in the Great War. They served in France and Mesopotamia, and gained two Victoria Crosses, It is noteworthy that as high caste Hindus they have a religi ous bond with Gandhi.]

the Three Castlest

New York, Saturday, Mr. Dwight Morrow, opening his campaign for a seat in the Senate, startled the political world by his advocacy of the re- peal of the eighteenth (Prohibi tion) Amendment. He declared that the Federal Government had been turned into a local reform. He advocated that freedom should be restore to individual States, who should determine their own form of liquor control with Federal protection of "dry" States against invasion from wet States.

The Herald Tribune declares that his speech effectively crystal- lises American- sentiment and marka an epoch in the progress of thought on Prohibition. The New York Times states that his direct and forceful utterance may come to rank historically with what Lincoln said about slavery.- Reuter's American Service.
