FOUR DERBY WINNERS
Among £1,000,000 Worth of Thoro-
breds Earning Money for the War
The fourth Derby winner to be
shipped from Britain in the last
twelve months to earn foreign ex-
change for the war effort brings to
something like , ,01,000,000 the value
of thoroughbred horses sent overseas
since war was declared.
He is the famous thoroughbred
C. aneroniau, who has won races to
the value of £ 81,287, including the
Derby and the Two Thousand Guin-
eas, and has sired the winners of 77
races, valued at £52,000. Shipped to
>:Iere are two of the men who are frequently heard on the BBC pro-
gramme "Britain Speaks". Both Leslie lIoward, actor (right), and J. B.
Priestly, author, (left) are names well known to Canadians, which partly
accounts for their popularity with C't31' listeners. Britain Speaks may be
heard daily at 11.15 p.m. ED(T.

Buenos Aires, where he should breed
great winners for his Argentine
owner, he is the first Derby winnee
to be sold to that country since the
last war.
Three other Derby winners are in-
cluded in the 1500 thoroughbred
horses which have been exported
from Britain since war broke out,
The first was the Aga Khan's Bah-
ram, unbeaten winner of the Derby,
the Two Thousand Guineas and the
St. Leger, and the first colt to
achieve that distinction for nearly
40 years. He was purchased for £40,-
000 by a syndicate of foul' American
breeders, His service fee will be $2,-

for the Derby, followed his stable
companion to America where he was
sold to Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt
Whitney for. £20,000.
Thus, following the sale of Blen-
helm; rilahmoud's side, four years
ago, the Aga Khan's three winners
of the Derby have now gone to Am-
erican stud farms. Apart from Bah-
rain and Mahmom', American breed-
ers have taken such British horses es
Easton, Rhodes Scholar, Hunters
Moon IV, Galatea II (the only Amer-
iean-owned and bred winner of the
One Thousand Guineas and the
Oaks), Heliopolis, Hypnotist and his
clam Flying Gal, Foxbrough II, St,,
Andr'ew's II, Chrysler, Kahuna, 1Ya-
dushka and many others.
The fourth Derby winner shipped
abroad last year was Coronach,
which Mrs. Macdonald - Buchanan,
who retains the ownership, has
"loaned" to thoroughbred breeding
in New Zealand for the duration of
the war. This horse, winner of the
Turf's Blue Riband in 1926, leis aired
the winners of over 268,000 in Brit-
ain alone. His own winnings total-
led £48,225.
Thoroughbred racing stock Inas also
been dispatched to Australia, South
Africa, Malaya, Chile and Brazil.
Prominent among the British thor-
oughbreds sent to Australia was
Field 'Trial. who ran third to Bah-
rain in the Derby. with the export of
Robin Goodfellow, second in that
year's race, last year saw the ship-
ment of the first three horses in the
1935 Derby. Australia also bought
Golden Sovereign, Le Grand Due,
Kin1erseout., 0nglalul's Glory and
the two Hyperion colts Titan and
Helios. New Zealand breeders have
Purchased Battle Song and Tweed II
(a son of Iiotweed and StraitIace).
Early this year a consignment of
four yearlings (one by Field Trial)
and six brood mares were sent to
Canada, while India, which buys
about four or five hundred horses a
year from Britain, paid £7,000 for
Taut Mieux and £2,000-£3,000 for
several other Horses. Breeders in
South Africa received Blitz, Ches-
Itam, Nord Express and City of Flint.
MEN OF THE SUBMARINES
Moving about in naval bases and
among naval men, some of whom
are old shipmates from the last war
or from manoeuvres in the years
that preceded this war, one comes
every now and again on the trail of
stories that are veiled, for very good
reasons, behind the fog of war. As
time passes the force of the need for
censorship may lessen, and it is for
this reason that I am able now to
bring out of my scrap -bag a selec-
tion of the yarns I have come across
of the doings of our submarines in
this war, says a naval correspondent.
Does the name Shark convey any-
thing to you? It ought to recall at
once Loftus Jones and the V. C.
that he was awarded after his death
for the gallant way the little des-
troyer Shark fought at Jutland in the
last war. And it should recall to you
also the Shark of this war, a sub-
marine that suffered from a "tech-
nical hitch" while in enemy waters,
and of whom the official second
tersely said "no further signals were
received." But in the submarine
depots they tell a story of the last
hours of tlo Shark that one day wo
may hope to hear in full when the
men who were . captured from her
and are now in prison camps in Ger-
many e011 say more than has been
said up to the present.
The Shark could not dive and the
ships wo had sent to her assistance
could not find her on the assnntecl
Position. '6V11a.t 11ac1 happened was
this. Drifting on the surface she had
been attacked by enemy aircraft.
Her gun was manned and the crip-
pled submarine shot down one of the
attackers—and picked up the crew
as prisoners. But soon afterwards
German armed trawlers were, on the
spot. The Shark Was still drifting,
tumble to dive or to move ahead, and
those on hoard, British crew and
German prisoners alike, were picked
no front among the wreckage of the
Shark. That story to my mind is a
magnificent sequel to the heroic
record of Loftus Jones and his
Shark at ,Tutland 24 years earlier
There was delightfully calm ilia
pertinence about the way another
story was told. It happened during
the burly --burly of the Norwegian in-
vasion. One of our submarines was
busy in the Kategat area, which was
stiff with enemy transports and their
escorts. "Two trawler's were about
1,000 yards away from us, so a cou-
ple of torpedoes wore fired at them
to discourage their approach," a
young officer said in describing the
events. Then the submarine got well
hunted and went under. "The chap
who was recording the explosions of
depth charges round us lost count
when he got beyond 100, and that
annoyed the crew intensely, because
they had organized a sweepstake on
the number of depth charges that
would be dropped." That submarine
was hunted and depth -charged for 43
mars. Only once in all that time was
the chaplain able to get to the sur-
face, and then he had to crash -
dive to avoid attack.
it used to be supposed that one
'thmarine could not hunt another
muter water because it was blind
ice the periscope was submerged.
'flat may have been true some years
70. It cannot be true guy longer if
'lis story, told by a man who was
here, is well founded, and since he
old it to an admiral I doubt if there
pas any leg-pull in it . By some
neaps or other a British submarine
'under water picked up the trail of a
U-boat and blindly hunted for half an
hour to got into position for a shot
with a torpedo. Finally, at compara-
tively close range as far as he could
judge, the captain fired. There was
no explosion, so the British sub-
marine, still submerged and blind.
kept up the hunt, Groping along un-
der water, using every instinct anci
every- bit of training he had the
captain trailed the enemy boat for a
long time, until he reduced the range
to something that Ire estimated was
half that of his first shot. Then he
loosed off torpedoes. Within a few
seconds there came an explosion.
and when the British boat snrfaeed
there cm the waters was wreckage
and a tall -tale patch of oil.
