The Clinton Kinsmen Raceway has already held two Sunday afternoon meets and the re-opening of the Goderich track takes place tonight, Thursday. The Goderich track was dark for the 1978 racing season owing to the closing of the grandstand by provincial authorities. Jack Morrissey, racing secretary for the Goderich meet tells us Thursday's 10 race card is completely filled and some of the top pacers in the province will be in action. No less than 22 of the best three year-old pacers go in three divisions for prize money totalling more than $17,000. Two locally owned horses will be in the running for top honours in Goderich Thursday. They are Dangerfield Bruce and Blackbro Garken. Dangerfield Bruce, owned by Dave Morrisey of Ailsa Craig and Peter Crud, Kippen has gone a mile un- der two minutes several times this year and should be "a sure thing", if, there is such a thing in racing. The other local entrant is Blackbro Garken, the property of Ken Blackler of St. Marys and Garth Blackler of Kirkton. This colt has several wins to his credit at Western Fair raceway in London this summer. Only last Monday night he was a winner in just a fraction over two minutes and three seconds. A week or two earlier he was second to Bill Habkirk's good pacer Camper's Scamp, who will also be in Goderich. Terry Kerr will be driving Blackbro Garken. Other entered in Thursday's three divisions which will go as the fifth, seventh and tenth races are Arrochar Mist, Autumn Glow, Bold Zip, Devon's Scout, and Jumbo Dynasurge. The following Thursday night, July 12 an Ontario Sire Stakes race for two year-old trotters will be held at the Goderich track which now sports a brand new grandstand. Quite a number of Sire Stakes events are schedul- ed for the two local tracks for the balance of the summer. This coming Sunday, the Clinton program will feature an O.S.S. three year-old filly pace. Some of the best three year-old trotters were in Clinton this past Sunday and drew a large crowd and helped produce one of the best betting handles the Clinton track has ever enjoyed. The 1,600 fans in attendance poured slightly more than $92,000 through the mutuel machines. This in only $4,000 less than the all-time Clinton record. One of the upset winners in Clinton Sunday was Brisk Knight, a 13 year-old gelding owned and driven by the Woodham area's most enthusiastic racer Robert Rundle. Rundle, better known in his junior hockey days as Jim brought Brisk Knight to the finish line first at better than 17 to one odds for the gelding's second win in it's last 22 starts. Good exercise This writer is one that needs to take heed of the following advice that is going to be passed on in the next few paragraphs. After a large number of banquets during the last couple of months weight has again become a slight problem. One of the best modes of exercise is walking and it also continues to be the most enjoyable and popular form of physical activity. Following are some hints on walking properly and the right equipment to be used which we gleaned from a recent column in the Toronto Globe and Mail written by physical fitness consultant Peter Elson. "First, the shoes. The best walking shoes have a vibram sole and a flexible upper. Buy them in the evening as feet have a tendency to swell during the day. Use shoes that have a lace or strap. Negative heels and clogs are out. Shoes with heels higher than one and a half inches make the wearer susceptible to ankle injuries or shin sprints. The number one injury associated with walking is blisters so take the following hints. Make sure your shoes fit. Wear cotton socks, which not only absorb sweat but also minimize fric- tion between the shoe and foot, thus preventing blisters. Don't wear nylon, which has no breathing capaci- ty. If possible, carry an extra pair of socks and change whenever your feet show any signs of being wet. Enjoyment of walking also depends on wearing clothing that is as light as possible, both in fabric and colour. Always carry a light bag or sack for extra clothes. Carry water if you are not going to be near a water source during an extended walk. A good drink is often the antidote needed for tired feet. If you have any foot-related problems, see a podiatrist or similarly trained physician." Need new system Each year when the major league baseball all-star voting results come in, so do the complaints. The method of voting by the fans is far from the best. It seems the clubs with the best crowds get more players named to the all-star teams. At the moment, Roy Smalley, Rod Carew,'Bruce Bochte, Brian Downing and Steve Kemp are the leading hitters in the American 'league. Carew, who is inactive because of injuries is the only one of the five with any chance of being named to a starting position. Wouldn't the American league have a better chance if they were able to use their top batters? Needless to say, they need all the power they can muster to upset the tables on the National league who have been consistent winners of late. Guenther tops at men's night Jim Guenther fired a 40 to win low gross honours In the 'A' flight weekly men's night at the Ironwood golf course.

The Q.S.S. divisions will go as the fifth, seventh and tenth races on the program, Secretary Morrissey told the T-A Tuesday, "most of the top three year-old colts in Onfario will be in action in Goderich Thursday night."
