There halt since been one longer genie, the epic 1-0 battle between Montreal 11'broozls and Detroit Iced Wings, that lasted until 2.25 o'cloek on the morning of Mareh 25, 1936, when the teams battled 116 minutes 30 seconds of overtime before the .lied Wings won, But for sheer drama, for a story -book finish that no Hollywood script writer could excel, that long 1933 struggle packed the most spine -tingling t'inish of any such marathon duel, in any sport. For tiny Doraty, who stood little Blore than 5 feet 6 inches in height, carried only 132 pounds on his dinrintitive frame, the smallest player in the League, was the pygmy who broke up the battle, Dozens of scoring thrusts had failed to pierce the armour of Tiny Thompson in the Boston nets, and dozens More had been foiled by Lorne Chabot, Toronto custodian when tanity Andy Blair teamed with the tiny Doraty to post the game's only goal. The sixth overtime period had barely started when Blair was sent to pay special attention to the great Eddie Shore, pivot of the Bruin offensive corps, The former University of Manitoba star chocked the great defeneeman twice as he tried to break away. On his third attempt Shore batted the puck ahead of him—right on Blair's stick. In two long strides Andy crossed the blue -line into Bruin territory, He sidestepped Shore, and as the Boston rearguard swung around to jab at the puck, Blair shot it ahead to Doraty, streaking for the net. The winger nailed it in his stride and skated in on Thompson to fire into a corner of the net. Varied proposals to end the gauze after 100 minutes over- time had been played :'ailed. The players were so tired and attacks lacked steam to a degree when President Frank Calder of the MILL. asked managers Art Moss of Boston and Conny Smythe of Toronto to flip a coin and decide the issue. Both refused. Then Calder suggested the goal -tenders he taken out of the game to facilitate scoring the winning' goal. The mana- gers couldn't see that idea. "To a finish" was finally ruled. And the finish care; with dramatic impact just four minutes and 46 seconds after re- sumption of play.

CaLvtt DISTILLERS LIMITED AMHERSTIURG, ONTARIO ..Plain Horse Sense by BOB GLLIS Lost Battle The battle of vegetable oils is over. The farmers have lost it. Bill 142 got third reading and is now law. It had not been before the Agricultural Commit- tee of the Legislature, probably to avoid any further discussions or representations by consumers, producers or the edible oil in- terests. The bill permits the manufac- ture of dairy product imita- tions from edible oils, as long as no milk or milk products tre used in the manufacture. Ac- cording to the Minister of High- ways, acting for the Minister of Agriculture, this is the way the farmers wanted it. Which Way "Such"? When Mr. Doucett introduced the bill, he quoted from the brief presented by the farm or- ganizations, that "dairy farmers definitely want legislation ban- ning vegetable oils being blend- ed with any dairy product and a ban on the manufacture and sale of any SUCH. product mar- keted as an imitation of fluid milk, cheese, ice cream, cream and concentrated milk prod. ucts." From the brief, as it is report- ed in rhe Rural Co-operator, however, the word SUCH is Bali Stealer—Leaping high over the restraining arm of Ralph Greco, Al De Porte' steals the basketball, missing. Without it the quoted paragraph would mean that the farmers had asked for a com- plete ban of all imitations of dairy products. What happened to SUCH? Did it creep into the brief on the way to Queen's Park or did it get lost on the way home? Who is kidding whom? Wot, no Cream? One tiring is sure, The bill is not going to "put the cream back into creampuffs," as it is sup- posed to do. On the contrary, it will take out the little milk that had been used in the ersatz stuff. Manufacturers are now snak- ing it without any milk product in it and milk producer's have lost another s m a 11 outlet for some of their surplus. More and more markets are being closed to Canadian dairy farriers. The U. S. Secretary of Agriculture recently banned I:he importation of dried mill{ pow- der. Butter had been banned be- fore. Now the American dairy industry is asking for a com- plete ban on the importation of all dairy products. So Young a Body . The one farm organization which did take a definite stand and offered constructive ideas was the Ontario Farmers' Union. in their presentation submitted to the Ontario government in the last days of March they ask- ed for a Royal Commission to investigate the effects the intro- duction of dairy substitutes would have on the whole com- munity, with special regard to food values, soil conservation and "the price and- capital struc- ture of agriculture and the in- dustries related to and cleating with agriculture." They also asked for a complete ban on all imitations of dairy .products whether they were made with or without mill{ or milk. products, until the results of the investigation were known. In their letter they said that the union was young, "but the fact that it has sprung up out of a meeting of only 17. farmers and in less than one year has grown 10 an organization com prising 40 locals with 2,500 mem hers In six bounties, proves that the farmers of Ontario want an organization in which they hold direct individual membership." More power to them. • :s 0 o This column -welcomes stig' gestions, wise or foolish, and all criticism, whether constructive or destructive and will, try to answer any question, Address ,your letters to Bob Millis, Box 1, 123 - 18th Street, .New Toronto, Ont. It won't be long now -- May 2nd. to be exact --till millions of folks who never attended a race track in their lives will be all het -up and excited over the out- come of a eon test between Thoroughbreds. We refer, of course, to the Kentucky Derby, not by any means the greatest of all horse -races, but undoubtedly the best -ballyhooed. And, unless something happens to him be- tween now and then, the major- ity of those folks will be ex- pecting something to happen - which never did before --a gray horse to come clown in front, ) The gray steed referred to is, naturally, Native Dancer, owned by Alfred G. Vanderbilt, who needs the 100 grand or so the winning will bring him about as much es we need a 1'ew more creditors, Still, for all his wealth and despite the time, money and thought he has put into horse - breeding, Mr. Vanderbilt has never yet won the Kentucky event so that, should Native Dancer turn the trick, it will make a pair of firsts, 0. v Back in 1934 Mr. V.-- and a whole lot more of us, to our sorrow—thought that Discovery could take it all. But ho couldn't quite make it. After pulling into a two length lead coming through the stretch, Discovery found that Cavalcade had a little too much of what it takes, and finished a well beaten second. C 0 a On his last year's form, Native Dancer would appear to be a cinch. In nine starts ile was un- beaten — the fust unbeaten juvenile champion since Pavot in 1944. (Even 1Vfan O'War and Citation had one black mark each in their opening seasons). And Native Dancer chid his win- ning so easily that he appeared to be in a class by himself. He won on muddy as well as fast going. He equaled the world record of 1,14:215 for Olt fur- longs in -copping the Belmont Futurity, and in a race at a little over a mile at Jamaica looked as if he could go o11 without trouble. re Still, this is not to be taken as advice to go mortgage the family woodshed and put it all on Native Dancer, Lots of those two-year-old "phenoms" have hit turf investors ht their tenderest spots — the pocketbook — in the past, and what has happened be- fore can happen, again. Native Dancer, though he looks like a standout, is by 110 means home free. There's the matter yof distance, for one thing. -Native Dancer's longest race as a two-year old was at a mile and a sixteenth. The difference- between that and the Kentucky Derby route is a mere 330 yards. But those 330 yards earl look like a Marathon trip to a horse when the going is tough—and gray horses have always been noted for speed rather than'staying power. Native Dancer's daddy, Polynesian, was the champion sprinter of his day, and he has undoubtedly handed down plenty of that speed to his son. But, along with that speed did Native Dancer in- herit enough t'stickum" to carry that speed—or a sufficient por- tion of it—for ten furlongs? Kentucky Derby history is chockful of instances of sprinter - sired whizzes who looked like winners .until they reached that home -stretch. To this argument the Native Dancer supporters answer by pointing out that the gray flash was "going away" from his opposition at the finish of nearly all his nine races during. 195E 4 r t• So, genteel reader, once •again "You pays your money and you takes your Clarice". We're not ad- vising You to wager on Native Dancer, nor are we telling you to bet against hitt. As a matter of fact—why DO we keep for- getting such a thing—since the racing situation was purified in Ontario, you WOULDN'T BE ABLE to make a bet on him un- less you were personally present at Churchill Downs. And. if ,you 00 happen to be there, we'll give yeti a couple or three sure things that: ;you CAN bet - on with the utmost confidence, a 1 e ONE; that you'll be sick of hearing the strains of "8'ly Old Kentucky Home" long before the clay is over. TWO; tlhat the deep- est and syruoiest "you -all" ac- cents come from people who never before were farther south . than South Chicago, and, Ti -TREE: that yau'il. discover that the far' famed Mint Julep is the nearest thing, in most instances, to a non-alcoholic beverage of any- thing not sold as a soft drink, 0 a a And, in conclusion, we would just like to congratulate Ralph Allen, of MaeLean's Magazine, on an extremely interesting and well -Written account of the "fixed races" scandal which so shocked Ontario turf lovers so badly a couple of years back. The only thing that puzzled us was his referring to the Fort Erie track as a half -mile affair. Gee, the blame thing must have shrunk since last we battled with it! Only 4 Years Old But Lusty And Growing By Peter Gr'able OTTAWA — A child with 14 parents celebrated its fourth birthday April 4, preening itself on a formidable record in doing what every parent wishes every child would do — keep the peace. The North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization was born on April 4, 1949, and it already is credited with hurdling the year — 1952 — Western statesmen marked with trepidation as the year of supreme crisis when. they found- ed it. This unique intcrnaticn111 ex- periment — unique because it is an experiment both in (oliee- • tive security and in collective de- velopment — has come a long way in those four years and in the six years since Canada';: Prime Minister St Laurent placed the first embryo idsion of its possibilities before frr't men in 1947. But less than three week: after the birthday, NATO'S council will meet in Paris to chart the next stage, the program for 1953, in the drive for firm security. The NATO child has not yet mastered his craft. He still has a long way to go. It is Mr. St. Laurent who is widely credited with fathering the concept of NATO, a concept now so broadly accepted among Canadians that -it tends to ob- scure the profound change in the nation's pre-war no -commit- ments outlook it represents In 1047, torn and saddened as he sat 'among the hostilities of the U.N. General Assembly as Canadian Minister of External Affairs, he arose one clay rc utter this statement that is likely to live long after he is gone `Nations, in their search for peace and co-operation will not, and cannot, accept indefinitely and unaltered a council which was set up to ensure their se- curity and which, so many feel, has become frozen hi i'utihty and divided by discussion. If forced, they may seek greater sairty in an association of delnocretil and peace -loving states willing to ac- cept •more specific interns tional obligations in return for a great- er measure of national se('urity.' It may become the passage Canadian history chooses, above all others, to associate with- Mr St. Laurent's name. Two years later his prophecy was fulfilled. In the election campaign el that year, 1940, he chose as his cent- ral theme the hope and the as- piration embodied in NATO. Here at last, he preached !1: ham- let, town and city, is a frtunda- tion on which peace can build Here is hope for peace. A few weeks ago in Toronto he brought his vision up - to - date with this sober caution: - "What we need to be concern ed about is to prevent false con- fidence that the danger of Com- munist aggression has receded enough that we can afford to re- lax. I believe the danger has re- ceded somewhat but it ens re- ceded only because thr free world appears to meal business: and. if we are to be secuie, we must continue to mean business. This is Mr. St. Laurent'. •theme For 1953. - It also is the tbeine that will background April's meeting of the 14 -nation NATO council in Paris in finalizing, plans, already well matured, for what is to he done this veer, 5o5ew0tIe, S GUARANTEED FUEL PUMP FOR All FORDS $4.90 Order lodes. . nod Then Forge About Future Puol Pump trouble, 11 00 Deposit on All C.0.1) Order• sr 5011 ENTERPRISES BOX A ' PORT ERIE ON) CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING AGENTS WAN'rlili ..-.-� MAMMY STOUR ...._{—...-- AILS, GREASES, TIRES PAIelectrioal motors, eleetek tail applianceoand s IlobbYshop Machinery, Dealers wanted.
