ABSOLUTELY THE LAST
We thought last kveek's column was goitre:
'to be our last before hiking tau to the golden
shores of. Lake Huron tunongst the bikini,. but
there's been a slight change in plan so you'll hai e
to bear with us one more week.
However, we are pleased to announce that
our good friend Bill Pollen will be taking over our
duties for the month of June while our summer
replacement, Bob Schroeder, is writing his tmal
grade 13 examinations.
We imagine most of our readers know Bill,
hut fo rthose who don't we should point out he
is well qualified to handle this task, an case you
didn't think you had to have any qualilications!
Bill graduated through the minor ball and
hockey ranks i n town an d d ur i ng h is ejA.e years at
.$FIDHS was an outstanding contributor to sports.
He played basketball and helped the junior
boys work their way to the WOSSA playous one
year and he copped one individual track eliampiote
ship as well if our memory serves us come
However, although he certainly doesn't look
the type. Bill's main forte was football and he
quarterbacked the Panthers to the \VOSS,\ tine's
7as he more than made up for his size, or rather
Jack of it, with his fight and determination.
In recognition of his athletic abilities and
his efforts in other student functions the was
president of the student council he was chosen
as the school's representative to the London Free
Press Leader's Club.
During his three-year stay at the 'tfniversity
of Western Ontario, where he graduated with his
B.A., the popular student played intramural basket-
ball and volleyball and last year at Emmanuel Col-
lege in Toronto was the star of the soccer club.
However, similar to most "aging" persons. he
has curtailed most of his athletic endeavour to
touring the golf links where his even temperament
allows him to shoot in the low 80's.(Which is the
same as saying he's more often in the high 80'se
We can think of several other "interesting"
comments we could make on Bill's past that would
undoubtedly make for enjoyable reading. but real-
izing that he will have the power of the press for
the next three weeks or so, we realize that dis-
cretion is certainly the better part of valor.
At any rate, area sportsmen can realize from
this short resume that. Bill knows his way around
the sporting world Feld along with their help
should be able to keep our readers informed of
all the sporting activity throughout the area.
PLENTY TO DO FOR ALL
It is for this reason primarily that w e are
writing this column because we had Bill talked into
taking over his new duties immediately and he had
consented to writing, it this week.
However, after sitting down with us for
an hour on Thursday afternoon while we detailed
the activities he would be looking after. he was
practically on the verge of handing in his resigna-
tion even before starting. So. to entice him to stay,
eve said we would handle this task for one more
week.
We have often heard the old maxim that
"you can can't see it for looking at it", and after
our talk.„evith Bill this was certainly brought very
much to our attention.
Naturally in our job we have to keep abreast
of all the sporting activity in the area, but it
wasn't until after we had outlined Bill's duties
that we realized just how much was going on for
the enjoyment of all age groups and in so many
varied activities.
We started out by listing the Huron-Perth
baseball league and the extensive minor sports
in town and alter a phone call to Boom Gravett
were informed that, minor ball was also flourish-
ing in Hensall, ('entralia. Crediton and Dashwood,
We then listed the Fee softball loop and the
ladies' division and pointed out that a WOAA
men's softball league was also in the formative
stages.
Turning to other activities we listed the
Exeter men's and ladies' golf clubs, the Centralia
soccer team, the lawn howling club in town and
the various public school track meets that were
still to be held before school closing.
We mentioned he should keep an eye on
the local horses competing at the Western Race-
way, the McGillivray softball league and a few
other odds and ends that we threw in to keep him
out of mischief and away from the London hos-
pitals for awhile.
Crammed into a few paragraphs this might
tot appear to be too much activity, but when you
look at it closer you stop to realize the number of
people involved in all these activities.
So, we would ask area sportsmen to help
till as they have helped us in the past and keep
him informed of their doings by phoning or de-
livering scores and results of their outings.
It's a big job to chase all these things down
without this help and so once again we would ask
your co-operation in lightening Bill's task consider-
ably,
BATT'N AROUND—Actually, the appoint•
ment of a university graduate was almost 0 Deers-
Sity so he can sit on the bench of Exeter Mohawks
and talk with the players. At Stella we took a
glance at the field in the fourth inning and point-
ed out to manager Derry Boyle that while he may
not have the best ball team ever assembled ire
town he should have the smartest because five of
the fellows are university graduates and they have
a sixth when Kirktort's Bill ('sago gets into the line-
up „ In our resume of till's activities we should
have mentioned he was also an ardent fisherman,
or at least; claims to he. However, we purposely
left. it out after the experience we had when we
visited hill on his preaching field in Thessalon in
the northern. part of Ontario three years ago. Ile
had been telling us of the exceptionally fine fish-
ing he was enjoying and similar to most fishermen,
had tales of largo catches, and so on. However, ice
spent a day sitting in a boat with him and the
only thing we were able to catch was black flies.
noWeVeie he returned home at, the end of the.
Summer with a couple of nice pickerel and invited,
us to a fish fry to enjoy his catch. (Al least he
said he caught them.) . . So, that's all for now
and see you among the bikinisi
