BY CHICAGO OFFICIALS The current issue of "The Hockey News," an international hockey weekly published at Moa- treal, contains an article about Jack Price, formerly of Goderich. The story is written under a Chicago dateline and is by Bud Booth. - The story, in part, reads: "Jack Price, a 20 -year-old. rear- guard with an unspectacular but effective and workmanlike manner, may well have turned pro with the Chicago Black Hawks by the time this reaches print. He re- cently drew enthusiastic praise from Hawk officials. "A like him . he played very well,' Coach •Sid Abel commented in appraisal after the second Leaf game. He's not the sensational type; however, he is a good steady performer and came to us highly recommended by Jack Stewart." Abel then indicated 'that Price would probably sign a professional contract within a couple of weeks. "Built along the lines of "the Hawks' rugged Lee Fogolin, Jack has' been playing with the Stewart- coached Chatham Maroons in the 0.I -IA Senior circuit this season. He got a one -game tryout with Chicago during the 1951-52 cam- paign, which he spent as a star with Red Hamill's Galt (O.H.A.) juniors." - 'Editor's Note: Since the above was written, Price has signed a contract with Chicago Black Hawks.

Tony Despirito is a jockey. He hadn't been heard of when 1952 dawned, he may never again hit the heavy type. But December 30, 1952 was his moment' of glory, the climax of a play that gripped the imagination of sportsfolk all over this continent. On the morning of December 30, Tony had ridden 385 race winners. So that every one of the year's closing days would count, he flew to Havana to ride in the Sunday races tHere, then flew back to Florida to resume his' attack on the old mark of 388 winners in a single year. So, with one day to go,, he 'needed four winners to brea Goderick collegiate News (Sy Kar Hamilton) School activity has come to a temporary halt, all attention being centred on the variety show.

Too long ander a bushel • Here's a man who does a great deal to benefit his fellow -citizens. Yet for a long time he's been "hiding his light under a bushel". Anyone looking up Main Street, for instance, might never guess that he had a hand in establishing some 9f its fine new stores, hotels, office or apartment buildings. But he has. Nor would many people realize that they may have him to thank in part for their homes. Or for the pure water that flows' from the faucets. Or the electricity that serves them so many ways at the flick of a switch. Every week workers take home pay. from industries that this man helped to. develop. But they're unaware of his connection with their jobs. He even has an influence on his fellow -citizens' health and the length of their lives ! Who is he? • He's the typical file insurance •policyholder - a man .who might be any one of millions of Canadians. And it is through investments of his premium money that he helps create public works, homes and industries in their communities. Life insurance money is also contributed to medical research projects seeking to banish deadly diseases.

He had one day to go, which is drawing it as close as any camera finish could be. The undersized son of a textile mill -worker, at Lawrence, Mass., was so small that other youngsters called him "The Runt" and shooed him away from their games, lest some bigger lad should trample .him. So he wandered the eight miles to ,Lou Smith's Rockingham Park, and began to hang around the barns. Kindly horsemen let him earn a buck by 'walking "hots' -that is, cooling out horses after a .race. He rode•horses for training in. the f orning and finally, he got a mount, but he didn't get close. to the' -pay-off .line. In fact, he rode so poorly that the stewards instructed that Tony wasn't to have any more mounts until he developed skill and timing. So it was back to the exercise gallops in the mornings for *the kid from Lawrence. In January , 1952, at Florida's Sunshine Park, he got an- other chance. He rode Great Shuffle and won. Even then, success didn't blaze a sudden easy trail. For stewards at Sun- shine shooed him away, told him to quit riding before he killed himself, or somebody else. "You'll never be a jockey" they advised. ' But the kid didn't heed the advice. We presume he felt, as have a lot of other kids in a great many other sports, that he had the stuff if given any kind of a break. He went °back to New England, and on the lesser tracks there, he ;began to ride at a rate slightly more than sensational: One day he had six winners,' is now the eighth jockey in 57 years to ride more than 300 winners in a year. And despite a 10 -day suspension which seemed to wreck his chances late in the year, he rode courage- ously, rode well, until, on December 30r, with the end of the year just over 24 hours away, he piloted home four winners, became holder of the new riding record. A sporting and dram- atic feat indeed.
