Otter seaplane and was hailed by
Flying Officer Terry Stamers of
Antigua, British West Indies,
"Denny, you old son -of -a. -gun!"
he exclaimed, "am I ever glad to
see you,"

The City of Winnipeg reserve
squadron of the RCAF figures that
it holds some kind of speed record
for propellor -driven aircraft fol-
lowing a routine flight made re-
cently by Flying Officer Frank
Gillam.
The Winnipeg officer flew a
Mustang fighter-bomber aircraft
non-stop from Vancouver to Win-
nipeg in two hours and 49 min-
utes, His ground speed over the
1,166 mile course averaged 415
miles an hour,
F/O Gillam wasn't trying to
break any records. He was one of
a group of pilots on a long-range
navigation exercise,
Fastest time made along the
same route Was recorded last June
when the RCAF's new four jet -
engined Comet transport flew from
Vancouver to Winnipeg in two
hours and 30 minutes.
F/O Gillam is believed to have
had a very strong tailwind which
would account for him being only
19 minutes behind the Comet's
time.

A. lot of people believe thoroughbred
]horse -racing to be a completely commercial
undertaicing, the accent on dollars,, with no
sports overtones. With suck folk, the much -
abused term "improvement of the breed" is
strictly for laughs.
But admitting racing to be the most com-
pletely -commercialized of sports, is possesses,
paradoxically, cross-sections that are rich in generosity and
sentiment. The Quebec King's Plate, oldest race in America,
founded in 1836, when, according to tradition, British soldiers
Traced through the fields at Three Rivers for the guineas donat-
ed by King William IV, furnishes instances of lavish outlay
made merely to preserve a sentimental sequence,
Breeding of thoroughbred race -horses in Quebec province
does not and never has achieved the proportions of that in-
dustry in the sister -province of Ontario. Quebec is not so well
suited, climatically, for rearing thoroughbred stock. And so
the Quebec Plate race, as such, dwindled for Iack of equine
support, until its scope was broadened and it was opened to all
3 -year olds of Canadian breeding.
Even that has not proven successful. In the last two
years, despite the $5,000„ added purse offering each year, the
race has been run as a betless undertaking, the sponsoring
club thus getting no return whatever for its purse outlay by
the ordinary revenue of wagering, through the mutuels.
In fact, since 1927, when only one horse faced the starter
to race for purse and royal guineas, there have been nine bet -
less runnings, meaning that the sponsoring club got no returns
via the mutuels. Instead, the suxn of $14,500., was paid out
to the winning horse in these years and half as much again to
the placed horses,
In 1927, there was a walk -over for Saguenay. Naturally,
with one horse, there was no betting, In 1928, and for three
years in a row starting in 1933, again in 1945, 1949, 1952 and
1953 the race was run as a betless affair. The highest purse
given a winner in this list was $3,910., which went to Ontario -
owned Chain Reaction this year. The last was $250., to Tor-
bruk in 1945. Jim Fair got $2,465., when Last Mark won a
betless race in 1949. So, it's a "minus" proposition,
There is no .compulsion on the club to stage the Plate re-
newals. The advertising value of the race, in Quebec, is neg-
ligible as compared with the tremendous interest generated. in
Ontario' each year. But the annual running goes on, so that
America's oldest race shall, not fall into disuse, and the spon-
soring club cheerfully pays the freight. And over $20,000., wei
think, is a generous price to pay for tate maintenance of those
qualities which the cynical insist do not exist in racing—senti-
ment and tradition.
