was verbally burned as the rea-
son. At no time did he offer
a rebuttal. He accepted the good

that impression.
The quarterback his Argo
teammates fondly refer to as
'Funny Body', has always been a
realist, never once looking for
an excuse, as so often is the case
with other professional athletes.
Once after an Argonaut vic-
tory inspired by Frank 'Cosen-

porters circled 'Wilkie' and
asked him if the shoulder in-

game 'hurt him'. Instead of the

Ed Note; In the U.S, the team
on offense can wait until the
-rowd noise dies down even if
takes four or five delays: In
act, the officials can award the
game to the team not being able
,to put the ball into play, be-
;cause of crowd noise. Ahern,
Mr. Commissioner.
Question: 'Do you think you
.could have beaten Ottawa in the
second game?'
Answer: 'It was Ottawa's day.
• They outplayed us and there's no
" sense to make one thing sound
,. like another. There's no reason
•?, for excuses. I think they'played
the best they've ever played', but
• there's no reason for excuses.
Question: 'Is Ottawa-a better,
football team than Toronto?'
;' Answer: 'We could have won
three of the five games we playea
them. I guess- you're not too
much of a dummy to' say we
should have won. They didn't
out-man us'.
,•• Question: 'Where do you think
the weaknesses in the Argos are?'
Answer: 'That's up to the
..coaches. They select the pla-
yers".
'•,c Question; 'What are your lin-
;mediate plans?'
Answer: 'For the next two
or three weeks I'm going to look
for a jOb in Toronto. I like it
here. If I can't g et a job, thenl'll
go back to Wyoming',
