* # he Meat important toe in the sports
world does not, oddly enough, belong to
a soccer player, a football or rugby ace,
In fact this toe isn't employed in any
part of the kicking business.
The toe belongs to the greatest shot-
putter O'Brien of Southern ahCaliforniiad 'IUniversiter y', (MemPie
champion and world record holder in the business of heaving
the 16 -pound missile for distance.
Juse how did a toe become important to a shot-putter?
You might ask. And the story is this:
In 1950, O'Brien had set a national college freshman rec-
ord of 53 ft. 101/2 in. Instead of being satisfied, his coach, Jess
Mortensen began experimenting with O'Brien to the extent
that by the athlete's sophomore year his putting style had been
completely rebuilt,
Under the new style Parry's right toe is the key to his
success. Most shot putters stand squared away in the ring but
when he puts the shot O'Brien's big toe is pointed toward the
rear of the circle. Among other things this means that his
heel and back are to the direction of the put.
Mortensen believes this vastly improved O'Brien leg
drive. Whatever did it, progressively this young stalwart has
broken the National Collegiate Athletic shotput record, set a
new mark for the National A. A. TJ., established the all-time
Olympic record, and beaten Jime Fuch's world record. His
most recent nark, when this was written, was two and three-
quarter inches beyond the 59 -foot mark.
Back in 1904, Ralph Rose was putting the 16 -pound shot
appoximately 49 feet, at the time a tremendous heave which
nobody believed would ever be excelled. Rose, a giant of a
man, put the pellet 48 feet 7 inches to win the Olympic title,
O'Brien's title -winning and record smashing Olympic heave
was just beyond the 57 -foot mark. But that was merely a start.
Today's O'Brien, with his toe working smoothly to help pro-
vide great leg -drive in his push -off, is getting closer and closer
to the 60 -feet mark, and may be able to achieve this, come
the next Olympics, Or perhaps sooner. At any rate, he's one
athlete of whom you can truthfully say, he's the greatest the
world has ever seen, and prove it by figures,
Recently, a fraction of an inch was added to Les Steers'
high -jump record of 6 feet 11 inches, and even though a tech-
nical flaw barred the new record, it indicates that techniques
have improved leaps and bounds, particularly in field events.

85y BOB EL IS
The most important achieve-
ment of organized farming in
Ontario since the end of the war
was the establishment of the On-
tario Hog Marketing Agency
with its sales organization United
Livestock Sales, Ltd.
- It was very successful in main-
taining price even against re-
peated attempts by the packers
to bring prices down. To enable
the agency to keep up the good
work it is important that hog
producers continue to give it full
support by following its direc-
tives.
Send Hogs to Yards
One of the difficulties encoun-
tered by the agency in estab-
lishing prices is the recurrent
shortage of hogs at the stock-
yards. Too many hogs have been
shipped direct to packing plants,
In an open letter, published in
last week's Rural Co-operator.
C. D. Black, manager of the sales
agency, explains the situation to
all hog producers.
After reviewing the develop-
ments from the January price of
23 cents to the present price of
35 cents, Mr. Black says that he
is "not worried about being able
to keep the value of your prod-
uct at this higher level than it
has been for a number of years,
PROVIDED we get the hogs at
the RIGHT PLACE and at the
RIGHT TIME in order to do so."
Mr. Black thinks that ('very
hog producer should be aware
of the complications and eontin-
ues: "Regardless of what you
may hear from any source the
basic fact is that — price is es-
tablished at the public market,"
"It, therefore, follows that in
order to create and establish the
true value of your hogs, it is
essential to have sufficient hogs

at the public market and we
have consequently ordered trans-
porters to deliver hogs to the
Ontario Stockyards who have
been going elsewhere with your
hogs."
Rebates to Transporters
In an interview to the Co-
opeeator Mr, Black states that
the transporters have shown an
unwillingness to comply with the
directives..
Some farmers suspect teat the
reason for this is that an unde-
sirable practice of rebates to
some of the transporters has
crept into the marketing of hogs,
reports the Rural Co-operator,
Generally hogs sold a:, the
yards fetch higher prices than
those delivered direct to the
plants. Last week the market
price was at a record high of $37,
while at the plant hogs were
paid for at $35 to $36.50.
Appeal to Producers
Mr. Flack ends his letter with
a strong appeal to all producers:
"Now you, the individual hog
producer, probably not fully
aware of the situation, ,nay not
want this. We are concerned —
in that through lack of complete
knowledge on your part — you

Exhibition. Kathleen O'Connor and her dog "Sally" won the
Ballard Award and 15 silver dollars for the hest dressed dog
in the Big Mutt Show.
may become the innocent con-
tributing factor to lower hog
prices."
"In order to maintain the price
of hogs at this comparatively
high level, after complete study,
we cannot advise you too strong-
ly to insist that your trucker ad-
heres to the directives emanating
from this company for the sound
a n d well -considered reasons
stated above"
Necessity of Co-operation
Under a marketing system,
which is supposed to be regu-
lated by supply and demand, two
or three large buyers combining
forces, could secure undue ad-
vantages over a multitude of
small sellers.
As a matter of fact this used
to happen and has led to the es-
tablishment of the one Central
Marketing Agency acting for all
producers.
I stands to reason that only
through co-operation with and
full support to the Agency of
each and every producer suc-
cessful operations can be carried
on.

gestions, wise or foolish. and all

NO MATCHES, SO LANDS
PLANE
As he was planting out rows of
potatoes in a field adjoining a
country road near Dillingen,
Germany, a farm -labourer heard
the sound of an approaching
aeroplane's engine.
A moment later a small 'plane
made a perfect landing on the
roadway, and out stepped the
young civilian pilot, an unlighted
cigarette dangling from his lips,
He walked across to the Worlt-
er, offered him a cigarette, •std
said: "Got a light, please?" The
surprised man gave him a box of
matches, the pilot lit up and re-
turned them, hurried back to his
machine and took off.,

To Fly To Kars
The race to design and build a
"space station" is on.
Scientists the world over are
scrambling to complete plans for
the first station, in such a race
as the world has not seen since
the splitting of the atom demand-
ed a bomb. The nation, or group
of nations, which succeeds in
establishing 'this earth satellite
could beat off all attempts of a
rival power to do likewise and
hold the entire earth in cubju-
gation.
Hurtling around the earth at a
speed of some 18,000 m.p h. the
space station could bombard any
city with guided missiles fitted
with, atomic warheads. There
could be no defence against such
attack, the satellite itself being
out of range of anything but
Dr. Walter Dornberger. fam-
ous as the scientist responsible
for the vicious V-2 rockets
which showered upon London in
World War II, is now working
for America, advising upon the
development of guided missiles,
The doctor has predicted that
within twenty years man will
have fashioned a rocicetship
capable of the trip to Mars and
back, via an earth satellite. But,
he adds, this great solar adven-
ture will probably never take
place, for it would cost ne less
than £3,000,000,000 — perhaps
more! Certainly no single air-
craft company could foot such a
bill, but to a government — with
the military side in mind — it
is a different matter.
This man-made moon could be
the perfect international "police-
man." Under the direction of
U.N,O.,. no Power could ander-
take secret preparations for war,
without being observed.
The space station could bring
peace to the earth. £3,000,000,-
000 does not seem much to spend
upon the conquest of warfare.
Since the Korean flare-up, the
United States has spent nearly
five times that sum upon rearm-
ament!
