IVIeNaughton. eaetatko ULAN( PE DOE Canada is 85 years old, come July first, and in these times• when Dominion Day marks the greatest sports program, in point of variety, of the entire year in Canada, you might be inclined to think back, and wonder just what sport there was to intrigue the folks 85 years ago. In. this and succeeding articles, we'll try to give you a sketchy idea. Perhaps you figure there wasn't much sport at all when Can- ada was a new-born infant in 1867. Certainly there were no automobile races, no bicycle races, no organized baseball, no hockey, no football as we know it 'now. But don't worry too much about the folks of 1867: Sport there was, Sport- there almost always has been. Not, of course, in the organized form of today, not in the great mass participation, or the tremendous following. But sport there was, indeed, 85 years ago, and quite a, good deal of it, too. There were foot- racing, track sports, harness racing, horse racing, lacrosse, curl- ing, golf, cricket, skating, snow-shoeing, and, believe it or not, there was even world championship boxing. There was horse racing, but, of course, with no pari-mutuel betting. America's oldest continually-run horse race, most color- ful of its kind in these Dominions, was then three years old. That, is the Queen's Plate, raced at the Toronto Woodbine track last May 24, a race that in eight years' time• will be 100 years old. The early records of this colorful classic are lost in anti- quity. But, for the purpose it's enough to state as an established fact that there was organized horse racing in Canada, long be- fore Confederation. For the Quebec Queen's Plate, which had its beginning in the, reign of King William IV, was old when Confederation was new. It has endured through the reign of seven British sovereigns, kings and queens, from its foundation in 1836, and is now 116 years old. The Quebec King's Plate was first run at Three Rivers 31 years before Confederation, in 1836, staged by British soldiers, so the rather skimpy history of the race relates, and run probably on an informal track laid out through the grassy fields in the British fashion. Since then, it was raced at Quebec, St. Hyacin- the, Sherbrooke, before becoming a permanent Montreal racing fixture. There was lacrosse, of course, and if we were putting these sports in their consecutive order' of birth, we would put lacrosse, or dip farther back, and put baggataway first. But this will keeti, because everybody knows there was lacrosse back through the centuries in Canada. But we think it might be more interesting to touch upon those sports which, perhaps, you didn't know existed when the prov- inces joined up. Cricket, for instance, an ancient and honorable sport. Cricket in Canada dates far back. The first international cricket match in American history was played between Canada and the United States at Montreal in 1845. A British professional team was guaranteed $3,750., to come to Canada .in 1859, another visit was made in 1868. Cricket is still played beneath the elms of many a college campus in Canada today. But bank in the days of Confederation, and before, it was one of the principal sports.
