Blue Jays in the American baseball league, but, they are being written off by CFPL radio in London. CFPL which has carried most of the Blue Jay's broadcasts for the first three seasons announced last week that the broadcasts are being discontinued. One of the reasons given by radio station manager Bud Knight was that Toronto team has failed to spend some of their money to bring in name players which would help the team in the standings. We are certainly disappointed in CFPL's decision as we caught as many games as possible during their first three years and the Blue Jays came pretty close to replacing the Detroit Tigers as our favourite club. The station must remember that the Blue Jays are as much an Ontario team as the Tigers are a Michigan club. We are not absolutely sure about this, but, would guess that the WJR Detroit Tiger network has a number of stations that are farther from Tiger Stadium than London is from Exhibition Stadium in Toronto. In fact, we remember at least one occasion when we did tune in Ernie Harwell and the Tigers that they welcomed a new station in northern Michigan. The Tigers can be accused just as much as the Blue Jays for not bringing in star players. CFPL may think three years is a long time, but, in Detroit it is now 12 years since the Tigers won the World Series and had a competitive club. They were very fortunate to win in 1968 with a bunch of veterans. They started a youth program a couple of years later and are still waiting for successful results. CFPL said the cancellation was for only one year and would be considered again next spring. If there are any of our readers also disappointed, a letter$ to the radio station outlining your feelings is in order. We have already done so.
