-Once, at a Harvard Club
dinner honoring the hockey team,
the manager presented Cooney
with. some luggage. "Thank you,"
Cooney said into the microphone.
"but I have an old bag at home,
up 441 the attic." The hall erupted.
I mean an old suitcase." Cooney
corrected. Beautiful,
At the hockey writers
luncheons, Cooney always up-
stages the other speakers.

Eddie Miller "pineh-hit" for
Snooks Kelley and read off some
long Snooks quotes, Cooney would
interrupt, "Jesus, Miller, you're
getting to sound like Snooks."
Hockey trips were some-
thing else. I remember one, in
particular. Harvard was play-
ing Clarkson in an EC AC quar-
terfinal game in Potsdam, N,y,
Any trip to Potsdam was worth
remembering. This one was
by bus, An ice storm has socked
in every airport in the East.
Cooney krie rw a card game
called Euchre, or something like
that. "It's an old Canadian
game, ". explained thrOta Can-
adian. Well, Fran, Rosa of the
Globe and I were partners against
Cooney and official Eddie Barry.
Cooney had a new rule every
time his team lost" a hand.
On the golf course , Cooney
made Julius l3oros look like a
slow player. Talk to Cooney and
find yourself in the middle of
his follow-through. To get into
Cooney Weiland golf stories
would require a, liook. Anyone
who thinks he is a wily hockey
coach, should play him in golf.
The college game has changed
since Cooney came to Harvard..,
The sport has grown, rules have
changed and , more and better
teams are playing it. There are
several reasons for it, but the
two main ones are (1) the in-
' flux of Canadian players and (2)
better American players.
''Kids , are much better
skaters;" says Cooney, "The
emphasis is oat skating. This is
'an era'now where stick'-handling
has gone out the window. You
can pass it better than you can
stick-handle It's a skating,
passing, shooting game,
"The game is so fast, there's
not that much body 'checking.'
You diiiiirliave , a rThyrre-e7-7"--You`
can't ,he two places at once.
It's probably a faster game than
it was• just from the point of
view that you' can pass the puck
Triumphs
quicker, move it around better.
"I think one of the reasons
why the Canadian kid, if he's any
good, stands out, is that .he's
playing the same game. He's
not being changed. 'Maybe it's
not as apparent today, but it was
earlier. He was more advanced
in the theory of hockey and he
had played more games.
"There is a tremendous
growth around the East. You
have to get hockey players with
all these rinks. There's more
opportunity than ever. The game
is exposed, all over the United
States. Players are getting better
coaching in the high schools."
Hockey is a unique sport,In
many respects, and in a time of
defection, or disinterest, hockey
has seen little of it, As Cooney
says, "The hockey player wants
to play. He wants to excel at
it. A kid who wants„ to play
hockey is thinking about hockey.
"In hockey, it's fun, even
when you are practicing.- in
football, it's different. Who
wants to go 'out there every day
and keep getting his face, rubbed
in the mud? I find if you co-
operate with players, let them
know you're out there to help
them, you get along."
"His greatest word," says
Cleary, "is 'Why'?' A player
answers and lie will say, 'You
really mean that?' If he gives a
good answer, Cooney will accept
it. If he doesn't, then the
argument is on. It usually turns
out that Cooney wins the argu-
ment:". ' - ' ". • '
'Rules changes? O'Cooney has
afeW in mind, but he says,
"My own personal feeling is that
the game - is satisfactory as it•
is." The future, after March,
1971, and the golf season?
may write a book. Isn't every-
ho riy71Yr -'
"People .think," says Cleary,
"'that he's unemotional. Some
kids donq understand him. But
the tyheels are:working all the
time. He's a guy who always
sees something7in a hockey player
that no one else does. He is an
innovator, and other coaches re-
spect him.'
"It is the little things that
Cooney' is great at detecting,"
continues Cleary. "So many
things came to light after I left
Harvard. I've been around him
since 1953. and I love him. He's
a ,man of few words. 'He's a
shy guy, really, until you get to
know him".
A, warm, sensitive', complex
man, hiding under an old hat, In
back of dark-•rimmed glasses,
Cooney Weiland has left his mark
indelibly on Harvard. As he.
leaves, a little hit of Harvard
leaves with him. I wish he really
would write that hook.

A GREAT MAN'S VIEW OF
CANADA
"Well do I remember, that day
in May 1944, when - in the
shadow of Monte Cassino - the
Canadians broke through the
Hitler Line, seized the Initia-
tive and exploited the gap they
had made, thus setting the mo-
mentum for the advance on the
Holy City." So commented the
Rt. Hon. Field Marshall Earl
Alexander of Tunis, KG, PC,
GCB, OM, GCMG, CSI; DSO,
MC, Governor-General of Canada
1946-52, as he reminisced in
England in May 1969.
"Canada has fascinated me
since childhood. As a boy in
'Ireland, I was intrigued by the
sporting trophies my father
brought home from there - moose
heads, bear and .buffalo rugs,
Indian' bows and arrows, not to
mention ---'three black bear cubs
'and a young elk. stag, all very
much alive. A Canadian aunt
rime to visit and won my ad-
'filtration with her graceful skat-
ing on the frozen lakes during
the Christmas holidays. Pictures
and sketches . of Canadian life
fired my imagination. I built
up a picture of a land that was
romantic, picturesque and ex-
citing.. Little did I. think then
that one day would command
Canadian soldiers in a victor-
ions warvid then make thy
horn a amongst them in their
Country for six happy and 'wonder-
ful years.
My first introduction to the
Canadian Army . came during
World War 1, when I got into a
streetcar in 'France one day and
was 'followed by two kilted sold-
iers who to my utter astonishment
began a serious conversation-in.
fluent French. It was not, until
I took a closer look at their
uniforms that I discovered they
belonged to a Canadian regiment.
I was beginning to learn
something more about Canada.
That war taught me, and mil-
lions of other Britons,, a great.
respect for Canadian troops. But
it was in World -War II that I
•
had my ' first real chance to
appreciate them at first hand.
As Allied Commander in Italy,
l ,,
armies
or u nat to ae s pl e nhdaivde ina my
Canad-
ian
ad
4AialnlwieaCdsorps. Among many battle-
field successes, its troops made
a marked contribution to the
struggle- for Rome,.
. From many months of
action, I recall- them as they
were that day: first-class troops,
resolute, courageous and emin-
ently successful. It was a bitter
blow when the Corps was with-
drawn from my command to re-
join the First Canadian Army in
western Europe.
Then one evening in 1945,
after Germany's surrender, Win-
ston Churchill asked me to go for
a stroll during, the Potsdam Con-
ference: I was surprised when
' he said,' "Prime Minisfer Mack-
enzie King wants you to be the
next Govenor-General of Canada.
Do go! It is so important, and
you will love it."
He was right. My. family
spent six of the happiest years
Of our lives in a country which
lived up to all my boyhood
dreams. But those years did
something else: they gave me a
chance to appreciate much more
fully the achlevements.of.Canada
.in the war.
Her Army fought mag":`
nificently not only in Italy but
across western Europe. Her
Air Force not only ran the, great
Commonwealth Air Training
Scheme but, made major contri-
butions to the Allies' bomber,
fighter. and other offensives. Her
Navy was a crucial'element in
the six-year Battle of the At-
lantic. Her industry was
transformed to turn out a flood
of war material. Her economy
was turned' into a.disciplined
strument which won World, ad:-
nitration."
This distinguished soldier arid
statesman went on to say that
"theirs was a record of which any
nation in,ight well, be proud. For
a country of 11,000,000 people,
it was momentous: It is a record
I am more than happy to salute."
