Prize Seniors-- 1--Clara 2^Eleai 3--Helei Win Crashes Claim Lives of 225 During 1938 improvement Over Tragic Record of of Last Year Indicated Indications that Ontario's motor-vehicle accident record this year will show a marked improvement over 1937, blackest year in the Province's motoring annals, were seen in a report issued Thursday last by A. H. Rowan, statistican of the Department-of Highways. The report showed a 42 per cent decrease in highway fatalities during the first seven months of this year. Accidents this year have taken 225 lives up to July 31, according to the report, as compared with 391 deaths for the same period a year ago. Mr. Rowan expressed satisfaction at the improvement indicated in his records. "The decrease is particularly pleasing in view of the fact that there are at least 4,000 more licensed drivers in Ontario this year that last," he said. "We have issued a total of 684,872 licenses this year, an increase of 6.8 per cent over 19i37."

Greyhound racing is becoming more popular in Canada from year to year, and it is hoped in introducing the sport to the Cobourg district that it will provide keen entertainment to local people as well as the many thousands of visitors expected for the jamlboree.

A few of . the entries, expected are "Gallant Warrior." "Limerick Blue," Sandy Beaches." "Royal Air Mail," Loch Leven." "Oshawa Clipper." Baason" and others. The complete card will consist of 0 races, with 5 to 6 dogs competing in each race. The winning dogs in the first 5 races- will then meet in a special event, followed by the winners of the last 5 races. The two winners of the latter race will then hook up in a race to decide the best greyhond of the meet, and a trophy for the latter event has been donated by the British Hotel. Messrs. Jim Kerr of the Gilbert House, Trenton; Pop Burns of Cobourg and Joe Kelly of Harwood have kindly consented to act as judges. The timers will be Mr. Chris Graham, of the Empress Hotel, Peterboro, an<l Claude Tyce. Belleville.

The Junior Department of Peterborough Fair has been steadily growing until this year a record of 275 boys and girls took part. Forty-four girls and 113 boys entered from Northumberland County.

M, Dewan, Minister of Agriculture for Ontario, addressed the group.
