Entries are already coming in from widely scattered points, while even a California breeder of Afghans has written to seek information. Michigan, New York, Montreal and Port Arthur breeders have forwarded entries in several of the 65 classes, while interest in the club match, which pre- cedes the international evént, is reported good. The Lions Club of Oakville is associated with the kennel club in sponsoring the show. WHAT WILL PHIL CALL HIS TWINS Marion Dowdle~is one youthful follower of the Journal comics who has given a lot of thought to naming of those two tiny bundles of energy in Phil Berube's new strip, "The Twins." After watch- ing their antics these past few. weeks, Marion aptly suggests that these tousled, freckled little cut- ups be called Mischief and Trou- ble. The suggestion has been for- warded with others to Phil, who is seeking the best names he can find for his cartoon proteges. Anyone with ideas along this line has merely to forward sugges- tions to the Journal, but make it soon, because Mr. Berube is just Hebout ready to make his selec- tion. BREAKS BOTH ARMS When two westbound cars crashed Sunday after one went into a skid on Lakeshore Road West, four persons were taken to St. Joseph's hospital in Hamil- ton. Most seriously injured was Mrs. Sidney Martin, Toronto, who broke both arms and suffered head and face cuts. Prov. Con- stable Harry Wilson investigated. Inside and out, it's.a beauty!

On Wednesday evening the usual races were held in a fairly light wind. Doug Ar- mour won, with Art Hills right be- hind him for second place and Pork Munro a good third. The race was twice around the eastern tri- angle but owing to' the shortening of the days only one race could be sailed. Saturday -morning the Junior Squadron members held thelr first sailing races. For the sake of non. sailing parents, whose children have been taking instruction, when Junior tells you he has been sailing a Snipe out in the lake, you may rest assured that a senior or adult member of the Squadron was in the boat with him. The junior enrolment of the Oak- ville Yacht Squadron is about seventy members. Every second Saturday at least forty kids have turned out to classes. Next Satur- day, for their first regatta Oak- ville people should make a point of going down to the pier to watch these budding tars go through their, paces. Twelve of the fifteen Snipes were out on Saturday afternoon for their usual race. The wind was light and shifting. Bill Macrae in one of the new boats, came in first, with Art Hills second and Jim Baillie third. After the race the Snipes drifted back around forth outside the pier while their: owners decided whe- ther or not there was enough wind to hold a Ladies' race. Eventually the race was held to the outside buoy and back. Sadie Hills won and Holly Macrae came in second. Ann Peason was third. Late Saturday afternoon Bur- lington Yacht Club sailed into Oakville in their Rainbow boats accompanied by some smaller sail- ing craft, and immediately chal- lenged the local sailors. Sunday morning twelve Snipes divided evenly among the two clubs sailed two races. The wea- ther favoured with bright sun- shine, a steady wind and a mod- erate chop. Oakville Yacht Squadron came out the victor with two firsts, a second and a third. The first race was won by Al Masson with his better half (?) as crew. Art and Sadie Hills were second for Oak- ville. The Armours won the sec- ond race, Aub Baillie and Jack Baton were third. Bob Duncan, one of our younger members, de- seryes special mention for fourth place in that race, against such experienced sailors. As the sailing season is nearly over, there will not be many more Wednesday evening or Saturday afternoon races. The Oakville Yacht Squadron has two big events still to come. On Sept. 8th the locals are taking part'in the Snipe races at the C.N.E. On Sept. 15th the Squadron is racing against Queen City Yacht Club, Toronto. In the meantime we will be out this Wednesday evening and Sat- Masson urday afternoon. And don't forget the Jnior Regatta to be held this coming Saturday morning at 10.30 a.m. Come on down and see the kids perform.
