Out(loor showcase
If
Pu are a hunter, then the Hunting and
Oatdoor Show shouldbe oft the top of your
priorities lisp It's the largest show of its
'kind in Canada and one of the few events
or anized with the hunter in mind.
Where else can you find such a large ar-
ray of equipment and apparel for the oat-
doors coupled with people who know the
answers to your questions? Nowhere, if yqu
want the truth unless you are prepared to
travel to the U.S. to do it.
With the hunting -season just around the
corner, you probably have a pretty. good
idea of what you want or need for the up -
corning year. The Show is the place to look
at all the alternatives, ask questions about
performance, and make your decision. You
might even consider buying it there, as a
good many of the booths will be featuring
"specials" on some items.
And, even though it seems early and you
probably don't even want to start thinking
about it yet, it's a great opportunity to start
your Christmas shopping. If there is a
hunter, in your family, it's often next to im-
possible to find a suitable gift at the last mo-
ment. That's why. it's important to keep him
or her in mind while you are browsing. It's a
good opportunity to pick up catalogues and
information packages from different
booths, which you can examine and order
from at a later date, or just wait until your
hunter starts drooling excessively and then
slip back and pick up the item before you
leave. Just remember, however, if you plan
to purchase a firearm, make sure you have
a valid Firearms Acquisition Certificate
with you.
But shopping isn't the only reason for
visiting the Hunting Show. There is enter-
t:I :nniert as well, and there is lots of It.

Naturally peaking
There is a photo exhibit from the Outdoor
Writers of Canada and artwork from the
Crysler Search for Wildlife Artists. • The
Canadian Taxidermy Association will again
have an exceI'lent display with many
specimens on view and the Association of
Women Anglers and Hunters will be hosting
a series of lectures and films.
Keepan eye otit for the brand new display
featuring Outdoor Wheels. The latest in 4 x 4
-trucks, off road vehicles, andsnowmobiles
will be featured. As well, accessories for all -
terrain vehicles will be shown, such as
brush guards and gun scabbards.
Getting back in the bush to hunt is often
the hardest task sportsmen face. And with
the need to haul equipment and food in, and
perhaps , a moose or deer back out, the
journey must be done in stages. Today it's a
lot easier than it used to be. Outdoorsmen
have the choice of a wide range of vehicles
to get around in, from the family sedan to
true trail -tackling 4 x 4 trucks. If the going
gets really tough, then specialty machines
take over.
Showing their newest lines of four-wheel-
drive trucks will be Ford, Nissan, Chrysler
and AMC. These power -pullers are aimed at
all road conditions from highway cruising to
even rough -cut bush roads.
When the trail disappears, ' all -terrain

vehicles take over. There will be a wide
range of these bush -invaders at the Hunting
Showa ranging from tough three -wheel.
"strikes" by Yamaha and Honda, to quad -
runners from Suzuki and Honda. Ontario
Drive & Gear will have their versatile Argosy
at the Show, the famous floating "bathtub"
that's at home in the bush or on the water.
All of these machines can travel on ice and
snow, but traditional snowmobiles from
Yamaha and Bombardier will also be at the
Hunting Show.
If it's accesories for your ATV you need,
such as snowplows; brush guards, or even
gun scabbards, Black's 27 & 7 R. V.'s booth
at the Hunting Show is the place to look.
Finally, for the camping hunter, World
Class Fibreglass will have everything you
need to convert a van into a travelling mini -
home in the bush, from raised roofs to
refrigerators. They'll have a converted van
at their booth at the Hunting Show to show
how it's done.
The show runs 1 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday,
Sept. 6th; 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday,
Sept. 7th, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday,
September 8th. Admission is $5.00 for

LOU MAC'S DREAM
New track record set at Clinton Raceway
By Toby Rainey
Clinton - Despite a new track trotting
record and the presence of .15 of Ontario's
top three-year-old trotting colts vying for
nearly $28,000 in, two divisions ofOntario
Sires Stakes (OSS) action at Clinton, it was
the secondary feature race that really stole
the day for most fang.
On August 25, race secretary Ian Fleming
put,'together one of the best bouts of the
season. with a $2,500 invitational pace'rnat=
ching five of the hottest pacers around in the
final race of the clay. Fans were on their feet
shoutingfor-a two -minute mile as the field
thundered off"the tor turn with no daylight
between them. When the dust cleared, Fred
Sadler and Springbank were in the winner's
circle, clocked.at 2:00 3/5. just a couple of
ticks off the six-year-old brown stud's per-
sonal best of two minutes, set July 28 in Clin-
ton with Ray McLean up. The last ,half was
timed in :59 2/5; the last quarter in :28 4/5.
Springbank, by Springfield -Willie's
Weetie, with more than $47,800 in lifetime
earnings, is owned by Nadia and Harvey
Neff of Delaware, and trained by Harvey.
Although Springbank was the only one 'in
this field to have raced before at Clinton, his
half-brother Spring Murray, showing most
speed on the charts, went off as the favorite
at the mutuels, only to place second in a
three-way photo finish.
Spring Murray is owned and trained by
Clarence Beitz of Mildmay; with Ross Bat -
tin filling in for regular driver b. Duncan.
who had another commitment.
A new track trotting record of 2:02 was set
by _Lou Mac's• Dream in the second OSS divi-
sion, with trainer/driver Garth Gordon be-
ingpresented with a $100 cheque'for the feat
. by Clinton Raceway treasurer Case Buff-
inga, who also presented the silverware in
both Stakes divisions.
2:02 was alsd a new personal record for
the bay son of Dream of Glory, making his
fourth win of the year to add the $7,042 purse
to his year to date earnings of over $40,000,
for owner Walter Emond of Etobicoke.
Clinton Raceway's previous trotting
record of 2:03 was held by Norm McKnight
Jr. with Imperial Glory, set July 3, 1983. -The
track pacing record was set by Ken Hardy
with Kevdor Aug. 26, 1984, and still stands.
Glencoe Alert, a fairly unknown Elesnar
coit owned by George Henderson of Mon-
treal, captured the first OSS division, set-
ting a new personal record of 2:04 2/5 in his
first win of the year. Driver was Percy
Robilliard. The bay colt went off at odds of
nearly 25 to 1.
Locally, Seaforth driver John Muir was
the hero of the day with two wins, one with a
Dublin horse, Sweet Noble, in the first; and
one with the well-favoured Walton -area ,
mare, K.M. Bertola in the tenth,'
in the first race, weet Noble led all the
way in his first trip to Clinton to win easily in
2:06 3/5 for owner 1,;iverne Robson.
Muir's second win of the day was a
fan's' treat all the way as Bill Harburn's
K.M. Bertola and Dale Kennedy's Mitola Hi
( driven by Ross Battin) ignored the other
• starters to make it a two -horse race from
wire to wire. Racing like a team from the
top of the stretch, Bertola won by a nose for
her tenth win in 25 starts, going the last half
in 1:01 2/5, the last quarter in ,: 29 4/5. •
' Old reliable Poppy Love, owned, trained
and driven by Wayne Dupee of Clinton,
defeated Seaforth rivals Becky Hi and Out
All Knight to win the third in 2:06 3/5 to put
her lifetime bankroll over $10,000. Goderich
trainer -driver Alan Shelton urged Carmen
Kerr's He's Special to a new personal record
of 2:Q7 4/5 in the ninth.
But the best touch of the day was a con-
• gratulatory message to a Goderich couple
well known to horsemen, Randy and Judy
McLean. As driver Randy McLean paraded.
to the post with Willowcreek Kate in the fifth
race, the tote board displayed the message:
"It's a boy! .CongratuLtions, Randy and
Judy". Willowcreek Kate came in second,
barely outclassed by Splurger in the fifth.
