Times-Advocate, 1981-05-13, Page 9Times -Advocate, May 13, 1981 Close finish features old pigeon races The second old -bird race held by the Lucan Homing Pigeon Club provided one of the closest finishes ever recorded. Adam Bratscher of Bryanston and Al DeHaan of Exeter entered birds in a race flown in conjunction with about ten other clubs in South western Ontario. At 8 o'clock last Saturday morning the birds were released at Stouffville, Ontario. Bratscher clocked his first bird at 11.01.53, while the DeHaan bird was timed in at 11.05.57. At first glance the Brat- scher bird might seem an easy winner. However, the distance from Stouffville to the Bratscher loft is 188.955 km whereas the DeHaan bird had to fly 193.194 km to get home. When the respective flying times were divided into the distances, the DeHaan bird had made an average speed of 1038.96 meters per minute, while the Bratscher bird flew at 1038.88 meters per minute, a mere difference of .08 m or 8 centimeters per minute. This means that the DeHaan bird for eveny minute it flew gained t'lcin on Bratscher's bird. Figured over the entire flying time of 3 hours, 5 minutes and 57 seconds, the DeHaan bird had gained 892.56 meters, or less than THURSDAY CHAMPS -- The Close-Ettes were the Thursday night ladies bowling champs.
