| BLUE BONNETS NOTES I $ $ MONTREAL, Que., June IS. Jockey L. Schaefer was an arrival from New York. His plans are to remain here for the remainder of the meeting. Schaefer will have the mount on Display in the Windsor Hotel Cup, which will be run on Saturday, the closing day of the Montreal Jockey Clubs first meeting. T. J. Healey and Carey Winfrey returned to New York last night. Winfrey brought the filly Sweet Lacruse up from Aqueduct and turned her over to J. Cook, who is handling several of the horses that Winfrey is racing en the Canadian circuit this summer. Healey plans to return the latter part of the meeting. C. Robillard has taken out a license for the apprentice J. Merro. Robillard has what is probably the largest thoroughbred in training in Beau McNeill. The latter, which was purchased out of the Maryvale Farm sale at Woodbine this spring, stands 10. 3 hands high and weighs 1,100 pounds. Johnny Shields, who arrived from New York, was busy greeting his many freinds on the club house lawn. This is Mr. Shields first visit to a Canadian course in some time. A few years back Shields was riding for his father, the late Alex Shields, on the Canadian circuit, and one of his favorite mounts was that famous old campaigner, Logan. Shields, who was a slim trim lad at that time, is now a six-footer and scales something over 200 pounds.
