Before getting Into the sports scene, perhaps some readers wouid like to know a littie about Florida and Miami Beach. Miami and Miami Beach are two separate cities, each with its awn form of government. Miami Beach, separated fromn Miami byý Biscaynie Bay, has no cemetery, rallroad, airport or negro area. More wealth is concentrated in the beach area, containing five miles of fabulous oceanfront hotels, than any place ini the world, fn the winter months. One small island here, In Biscayne Bay, just off Miami Beach, is quite a spot. Most of the island consists of the Indian Dort Leagui HeId Here . As Trophiei Creek Country Club.

Tic Floridians have ail tic sports .attractions we have in Bowmanviile cxcept for hockey. In addition, down here you may also participate in deep-sea fishing, ocean batiing, and shuffieboard. You arc able to watch (and bet on) dog racing, horse racing (tirce tracks in tic Miami arca), and Ja'-Alai (pronounced hi-l). No property tax is collected on tic first $5,000.00 assesscd value here, and you only pay tax on hpelf of tic remaînder. This is brougit about, due to tic revenue derived £rom tic wagering on tic greyhound and horse racing, and Jai-Alai. First o! alI, let's say a littie about Jai-Alal. It is a Span- * sh game played witi a curved basket affair, strapped to tic wrist, and a bard rubbcr hall. This sport calîs for greater strengti, endurance and skiil from tic individuai, than any otier hall gamc. I-.was informed tiat I'd have to wait until Dec. 12 to sec a game, as the Frontons (arenas) closed last month for tic summer scason. , As for tic borses, they also have dcparted from bere ta rac on thc northern tracks during tic summer. Thrce major -Cae tracks, the world-famed Hialeai Park, Tropical Park, and Gulfstream Park arc found here. I was able to visit Hialeai, *which is a beautiful place, rpaintained as a public park in tic off-season. I was informed that lining. the drive arc 36 of the tallest and most perfcctly matcbcd royal palms which could be found In tic Everglades. Ticre arc four islands in an artificial lnfield lake, alive wîth trout, bass, ducks and swans. Thc symbol of Hialeai is tic 650 priccless flamingoes, in tie infield, tic largest group on public exhibition anywhere.

The racing takes place at nigit, on a brilliantly *'illuminated course. Tic stands are arciitecturally superb, as ane t he frontons for Jai-Alai. In onc race I attempted to pick tic first and second dogs in a quincla pool, wbich pays well. Theic pooci tiat was supposed to arrive second, came in third, after the fîrst finisher bad come in on sciedule. Tiat only cost me $5900 in winnings.
