Sporting gestures, in which this column ,
is primarily interested, dot the sports scene."
That's traditional. There'll be many of them
this year, as in every other year. Amateur
and professional sport will both' contribute
their quota,
But at year-end, we doubt if you'll find
one to excel, in its spontaneous spirit, that developed in Mont-
real, before a fanatic hockey crowd, one night last January.
You'll require a bit of background, perhaps, to more fully
appreciate this. Maurice (The Rocket) Richard, is the idol of
Montreal sportdom. What Babe Ruth and Christy Matheson were
to baseball; what Lionel Conacher, Red Grange and Jim Thorpe
were to football, the Rocket is to Montreal's vast hockey public,
plus. That January night, Canadians were playing one of the
bitterest rivals,, the powerful Detroit Red 'Wings, and as an ad-
ditional attraction, if one was needed, Richard the Rocket was to
receive the award in recognition of being the Hockey Player of
1951, so selected by 'and for an American magazine devoted to
sports.
So it was, in reality, a. Richard night, a Richard crowd, come
to pay homage to an idol. But, unbelievably, because of one
spontaneous sporting gesture, the whole show was stolen by
Richard's arch-enemy of the National League right-wing ice e
lanes, quiet, hard-shooting young Gordie Howe of the Wings, iv
who just then was battling Richard tooth and nail for the
N.H.L. scoring lead.
It wasn't that Richard, unable to play because of injury, and
clad in civics, didn't get a great ovation when he stepped out
on the rubber runway, while players of Red Wings and Caned-
lens stretched in a line across the ice pounded on the ice with
their sticks to make their own contribution to the occasion, It
wasn't that Mayor Houde, a master-craftsman of words in such
events didn't speak with eloquence. All that went smoothly as
per routine schedule.
When the presentation was finished, and Richard had march-
ed back to the promenade and was just about to disappear into
the crowd, Howe suddenly skated away from his position, wheel-
ed over, and called out "Hey, Rocket!" When Richard turned,
Howe doffed his glove, extended his hand, and the two rivals
for top goal-getting honors in the National Hockey League shook
hanIdts w warmly.
so d . rt of genuinely unrehearsed, spontaneous gesture
asa
that caught the big crowd completely by surprise. Montreal
crowds are appreciative of dramatic moments and color in sport,
and they felt, rightly, that here 'was one of them. For a few
seconds there was stunned silence, Then this crowd who had
come to cheer the Rocket blasted out a thunderous roar that even
exceeded the warmth with which Richard had been received, be-
cause this cheer was for an event unexpected. It was a cheer
unrehearsed, and thoroughly, warmly genuine.
Before young Howe skated quietly back to his right wing
position, a press photographer asked him to shake hands again
with Richard, but Rowe, no actor, had already Contributed a
sincere gesture, and was in no mood to add any studied theatrical
touch and shook his head smilingly.
And after that, lie went on to score the goal -that put him
even with the ailing Richard. And the pro-Canadien crowd
cheered him again, even for that.
