And we urge this is the time, in Canada as elsewhere, for action, The British Empire, the United States, among the free countries of the world in which sport flourishes as a natural, and not a forced growth, and all others in the same happy category, should be deeply concerned. Surely the democracies, Canada included, must send every qualified athlete to have a chance to match Russia, We will never, of course, beat Russian propaganda in the Pravda. There is no and Russia can score as she plal ea es. Last timore in the Olympic sI a lwas kind enough to give the United States a tie with computation known only to Russia, a system widely at variance from .tha't un- officially and informally accepted in other nations. Next time, the system will be improved to denote a Russian .triumph, unless the victory of the democracies is overwhelming. We, in Canada, need money to send athletes, but first we need athletes to send. Time is short. Men not already in training will need to start an intelligent workout program and campaign immediately to have any chance of being worth anything in Olympic competition. If we dok't get a program going, we'll have few, if any, athletes' ready in 1956. And those won't be prepared to compete in November which is normally out of season in our land. This is something the Amateur, Athletic Union should take up immediately, in a practical way, with practical men at the head of the organization, men not interested in petty sports politics; but men interested in the development of our athletes through the medium of competition. This is the only way— competition based 'on efficient modern scientific traininkr methods. We have at least one great 1500 metre prospect. Rich Ferguson. We have some fine boxers and wrestlers. excellent swimmers, both boys and girls. Just what we have in Canada we'll never know until a better degree of competition is developed. Our hockey supremacy is no longer a matter to be taken for granted. There is . ample material, but a high degree of selectivity must be exercised here. For other events, track - field, swimming, gymnastics and the like, we believe that a series of Olympic preparatory tests and meets, with govern- ment financing in part could develop a few athletes worthy to carry Canada's colours, and compete with the best. by Tow tea mate and 1 Co for uthi sse,elle St., Ti skessj Calvert DISTILLERS LIMITED AMISIM141110.
