East RR Station Phone 107 i 13 Page Recoraurowd At Opening Of Northville The Northville Downs night harness race meeting, which is to continue through Sept. 13, was launched on a record-breaking scale Monday evening when a crowd of 9,247 spectators, biggest opening night crowd in the track's four-year history, saw the in- augural eight -race program. Opening night records were shattered in almost every depart- ment of operations. The biggest mark to fall was the pari-mutuel betting total. On Monday the fans wagered $157,395, an increase of more than 69 per cent over the 1946 opening night figure of $93,- 000. Every winning horse was a Michigan bred and Michigan owned horse with one exception. The new E. M. Smith Patented Starting Gate made a great hit with the tremendous throng that crowded the half -mile plant al- most to capacity. The mechanical starting device. with Paul Wright of Camden, Ohio, in charge as Chief Starter, sent the race fields on their way in the best order Northville has ever known. The big feature of the opening night's card was the Inaugural Pace, an $1,800 stake race which drew 19 entrants and was con- tested in two divisions at a mile and one -sixteenth each. The first division was won by Miss Bert Abbe, an old favorite at the Northville track, in 2:21 2-5, while PARFEN'S GROCERY OPEN DAILY -9:00-7:00 FRIDAY and SATURDAY 9:00-8:00 Complete Self Service CHOICE MEATS & GROCERIES Fresh Fruits and Vegetables 8861 MIDDLEBELT RD.

Archie Niles, veteran Northville trainer -driver, got away to a fast start in his bid for top honors among the reinsmen at this 48 - night meeting. Archie had four mounts on the opening night's card and won with two of them— Dan Patch Scott and Lee Morgan —while finishing third with Lee Morgan in a "comeback" race. The Inaugural Pace launched a great series of stake races which will be staged at Northville this meeting. The Plymouth Trot on Thursday, July 24, was the second in the series, while next week the Windsor Pace on Tuesday, July. 29, and the Pontiac Trot on Thursday, July 31, will highlight the racing. Elton R. Eaton of Plymouth, tate representative from this district, officiated in presenting the Inaugural Pace Trophy to Miss Bert Abbe's driver, Carl Fackler on Opening Night. Pro- minent officials of other cities, after the Northville s t a k e s have been named, will be similar- ly honored at future events. Many of the biggest name horses and drivers of the country are scheduled to arrive at North- ville next weekend, following the closing of the Maywood Park meeting in Chicago on July 26, with the result that the flood- lighted track here will be the harness race capital of the middle west for the next seven weeks. More than 400 applications for stable, space had to be rejected for this meeting, but the capacity supply of 360 horses on the grounds represents the highest quality of racing stock in North- ville history. The Northville Downs races start. at 8:30 p. in. each night except Saturday when the post - time is 8:15. Home Moderization Garages Built Quality Workmanship Consult a licensed . builder. HARRY E.

Damage as yet has not been determined. The Livonia Fire Department was called at 1:2)9 p. in. Tuesday afternoon by the Redford Fire Department to assist in extin- guishing a fire in the Zimmer Boat and Trailer Co., 12750 Ber- wyne avenue, Redford Township. Prompt action by the employees and members of both fire depart- ments saved the plant from des- truction. The fire was confined to paint spray room where combu- tible mater; --i- were stored. It was said that a spark from a broken electric light bulb was the cause of the fire. Four large trailers in the paint shop were destroyed but approxi- mately 50 others in the yards were moved out of danger. The Redford Fire Depaictment is to be complmented in making such a fine stop on a fire of such hazardous proportions. The responding by the Livonia Fire Department typifies the fine community spirit between sur- rounding fire departments in Wayne County.

And the new, reorganized Air Forces give thousands of eligible young men an opportunity to take an active part in building America's air power ... on the ground as well as in the sky. You may, for example, enlist in the Air Forces for three years. If you have a specialty which will qualify you, you may also be able to enlist in a grade at higher pay. If you have had Air Forces experience, you may join the Air Reserve and continue your military aviation traming outside of business hours.

On Air Force Day, make a point of finding out everything about your Air Forces — especially the new Aviation Career Plan described below. Full details can be obtained at your U. S.

Army Recruiting Station, advise the Recruiting Officer - the kind of aviation training you want and he will provide you with an application blank and a complete list of available courses. When you are selected to attend the course of your choice, you enlist in the Army Air Foroes for 3, 4 or 5 years. After your basic training period you are guaranteed the education you have selected to make you a -specialist in the type of work you want. Get a list of all the schools and courses open to you under the AAF Aviation Career Plan at your U. S. Army Recruiting Station. * U. S.
