BATigN, Sports Editor It was with mixed emotions that we read. on Friday that the CBC had decided to carry tins year's Grey Cue game ibetween Winnipeg and Montreal?) at the insistence of the Board of Breadcast Governors. We were naturally quite pleased to hear we would have the opportunity to witness Canada's Sporting spectacle, le;it it meant we had to throw •out the column we wrote on Thursday afternoon in which we pointed out the loss of CPI action and the Grey Cup game from the CB(' was detri- mental to Canadian football. However, most of our writings are still ap- plicable to the general scene as the televising of regular weekly action has not been altered and there is no indication that it will change in the immediate future. There is little doubt that interest in Can- adian football in this area has been cut consider- ably since the CBC was outbid for the weekly games in the Big Four and we feel this has been a big blow to Canadian football. We doubt if our concern is shared by most -football fans who have come to enjoy the superior • play in the Sunday broadcasts from our neighbors to the south and there are perhaps few who really care whether they see CFL action at all, as long As the NFL games are continued by the CBC. However, without too much flag waving, we should point out that this puts us back in the -old rut where we are actually more interested in what athletes in the United. States are doing than we are in our own Canadian players. We realize there is really nothing area foot- ball fans can do about this and the CBC can't be faulted too much either, as they just didn't think they could afford the price the Canadian operators wanted and received from the other TV network. But, we think the CFL moguls made a big mistake and it will show up over the long run as interest in their league in the areas covered, exclusively by the CBC will drop to practically nil, not only among fans, but future football prospects. This will be detrimental to Canadian foot- ball in our opinion as very few youths will consider taking up the game seriously if they have to watch teams that are made up exclusively of American players and where, to our knowledge. no Canadian has ever made the grade. On the other hand, if they have the oppor- tunity to watch CFL teams in action they will hear about the successes of other Canadian players and will at least know they have an opportunity to graduate to the "big time". We feel this is one of the reasons why very few Canadians ever make professional ball teams. Sandlot players only hear the names of American players mentioned and there are no shining ex- amples of Canadians in professional ball to give e our youths an indication they could make the grade if they made an all-out effort. By the same token, this is perhaps what • makes hockey our big attraction for the young- eters. They know that Canadians dominate the professional leagues and they have an opportunity to make it if they are good enough. So, it is with this in mind that we say we would like to see the CFL games return to the nation-wide TV screens and we hope the big brass in Canadian football will stop to realize that over the long run they may lose even more money fend future Canadian talent) than what they have made by selling their product to the highest bid- der, The BBG, in asking the CBC io cover the Grey Cup, pointed out the game was "of national importance". We share their opinion, because it has been a bit disturbing to our national pride ; to realize that in the past there \\ ere more Can- Adians watching and takieg an interest in NFL play than there were watching Canada's greatest sporting spectacle. BATT'N AROUND Although indications are that several area deer hunters have met with some success, we haven't received too many defin- ite reports and would appreciate learning of those who have been fortunate in bagging some game.

LACED BY ROCKETS Exeter junior Hawks, play led without three regulars, and. losing two more in the game with injuries, went down to their fourth straight defeat in Strathroy, Thursday, by a score of 8-2, With Dale Turvey and Fred Wells forced to the sidelines with injuries and Bill Heywood sitting out a one-game sus- pension, the Hawks still man- aged to start out in high gear in, the tilt and outplayed their hosts in the first stanza. However, captain Bob Jones was injured in the second per- iod when he was boarded into the open door of the Strathroy players' box and Lester Hey- wood joined him with a hip injury. From then nn, with then. five stalwarts missing, the locals couldn't keep up with the front-running junior Rock- ets. The home. tors started the scoring off in the first period when Dave Robinson' broke in. with Ken Fadelle to lift a perfect. 'shot that caught the small space between John Wade's shoulder and the top of the net. Exeter carried most of the play through the remainder of the period, hut couldn't find their shooting eye as they continually missed the net or shot into Lanny -Brown's pads. 'Strathroy upped their margin to 2.0 in the second on a goal by Bill Brady at the 3:12 mark and made it three in less than three minutes on a tally by Ron Carrothers. The Hawks helped the Strath. roy cause in the latter stages of the stanza when Flick "Boyle and Don Cooper both made clearing passes from -behind their own net th at deflected off Strathroy players behind Wade.
