The Seaforth News, 1953-10-01, Page 7TNS CaNtrt SPORTS COLUMO el It is inevitable when the super -stars of hockey meet in the annual all-star game, that there will be thrills and dr(i- ma. For here is the cream of the crop, players who represent literally millions of dollars spent in recruiting, developing and drilling thou into the polished ftnosse that major hockey requires. But, thoutsh the all-st11r glace iM now an T i nllatt Lipoate we doubt if it wall ever "trochee. wit throat etttelting dream as developed in the very find of each oflt'ta:eve 1L Was nn it February night of 1934, in Turuuto's Mluple Lea tlsirdime, the night a the Ace .Hailey benefit mune toil the first time, eve be- lieve, there ever wait aft Id1-SLai' hockey battle, A few weeks before, Louie had played in Boston. What was just another game had suddenly belched ferth grim and sinister tragedy; conjured up the ehill black spectre of death in the evening, death in a hockey game, Eddie Shore, powerful star of the Roston, most -idolized in Boston, most -hated elsewhere, had, from behind, roughly hurled his brawn into Bailey, a slim, fast -skating, herd -shoot - lug right-winger, as Bailey turned from an abortive play, and was moving back Shore never asked, never gave, any quarter In hockey. He played hockey as Dempsey fought, with an in- born savagery, a burning lust for victory. So, in his own rugged fashion, Shore plunged into Bailey, to shoulder him out of the way, Bailey, off-balance, pitched forward on his face, his head struck the ice with fearful im- pact, he lay there in a suddenly nerveless, inert heap. You can usually tell these major crashes in hockey, and the crowd, the players, instantly sensed that here was injury and damage beyond the ordenary. His skull was fractured. For days, it was a toss-up whether Bailey lived or died. The sports world turned bitterly against Shore, He was suspended by League edict, while the mob clamored that he should be barred for life. Others suggested he be jailed and tried for assault - perhaps for murder. The anti -Shore feel- ing was tremendous. Rut Bailey recovered. And when it was decided to stage an all-star game for his benefit, Shore was one of those select- ed to face Maple Leafs. Before the game Bailey stood in mid - ice, shaking hands one by one with the players who were to perform in his behalf. Finally, it came the turn of Shore, the man whose check, good or bad, had caused all this, the man who had just missed plunging a fellow -player to death, . A erowd sat silent, hushed suddenly by the sheer grippling dra- ma of the situiition. You might have thought Shore's head would drop a bit, that he would have faltered or hesitated or glanced about, But he did none of those things, Chin up, eyes clear, he wheeled up to Bailey, stuck out his hand. Bailey shook it warmly. And a sudden roar of pent-up emotion, that burst with the sudden force of the Johnstown flood, shook the great building to the very rafters. That was drama. We doubt if any other all-star game will ever produce its equal.

Jacques Crapaud, where the numbers "seven" and "elev- en" bulk most important. ♦ * * However, that isn't going to prevent us from handing out a little timely advice, which we borrow hoists bolas from one of Canada's greatest and most in- teresting outdoor authorities, Bob Turnbull. Thank you, Ronert! With pheasant and partridge shooting not too far off this is the perfect time to give somr' con- sideration to sportsman -farmer relations. Each autumn at pheas- ant time, particularly close to the larger cities, there comes a justi- fiable holler from rural residents that trigger-happy city slickers are peppering stock, farmhouse windows and so forth with mis- directed shots. Fences are. broken down and gates left -open so that cattle and horses often wander away. While it is true that only a small hooligan element is respon- sible for such poor sportsmanship the unfortunate thing is Chet an Where's that Barber? --- This fur- ry pup would like to get his paws on his barber, Seem he doesn't believe his new hairdo M foo fashionable. irate farmer is in no mood to dif- ferentiate between good and bad hunters, and who can blame him. So all must suffer, A * * Yet the farmer is the key to good shooting, and maintaining it, in rural areas, hard by our cities. So he must be given every consideration and co-operation. , While all wild game tecnnleal- ly belongs to the province, con- trol of most of its habitat u' vest- ed in the owner or tenant of the land. The farmer can lock the door to all hunting on his land, or he can, as many do, he ex- ceedingly generous with his hos- pitality. There is an easy appy a.h to the use of the farmer's magic key. This is simply through the use of common courtesy and the follow- ing 10 commandments are the open sesame to the farmer's fields and coverts: a 1. Always drive into the tar- mcr's yard end ask permtreion to hunt, 2 Hunt only in the areas he designates. Stay away from his stock, 3. Respect his fences. If neces- sary to climb them, do se by a post. Use gates if possible. clos- ing them behind you. 4. Never shoot near houses, barns or livestock. 5. Leave fruit and other crops alone. If you want some, huy it from the ,farmer. 6. Go around fields where peo- ple are working or pastures where stock is grazing. Don't walk on seeded ground. Don't tramp through standing grain. * 7. Shoot crows and predators that do damage to crops. 6, Share your game with the farmer. 9. On a subsquent vias, bring his wife or children some little gift or token of friendship, 10. After you've become well acquainted, suggest a planting program to better game hebitat, offering to finance it or help him with it, thereby showing genuine interest in his affairs. Just.4remember that the far- mer makes his living from the land that you want to hunt over, so respect it every bit as much as you would the saw or plane you might borrow from a craft-- man in the city. That's all the farmer asks -- consideration. Dain' the Turkey Hop - Tom Turkey sets a fast pace for pretty Jeon Chapman as they stroll down the Boulevard.

Hon. James G. Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agriculture, must have been right when he said in his cam- paign: 'The farmers never had it so good, they are making more money than ever before, 'There are no surpluses and the British markets are not lost' " Quick Response This drew a quick response from J. F. Gamble, Secretary of the Ontario Farmers' Union, Chatsworth, Ont., who writes: "Your recent article on the elec- tion results would tend to start some people scratching their heads as it seems rather ironical to say the least, but farm people apparently do not change easily, even when they are getting a slap in the face. There is a lack of true facts and the need of a better understanding of election planks if we are to get any natu- ral results, when today there is little personal contact and the average voter becoming more disconnected with elections and parties, "We feel there is a great lack of unity among members of la- bour unions and other organiza- tions that aim to improve con- ditions by political action. and until such membership is better educated to methods of achiev- ing their aims, we should not ex- pect too much." . , , "The general public is very critical of tabour for some of their actions and we are not condemning anyone, but feel there is room for much im- provement in the actions of in- dividuals if labour is to gain the proper spot in the public eye .. . The recent strike of the Team- sters Union did not create public appeal." Common Aim Mr. Gamble continues that "it should be the aim of any organi- zation such as labour or farmer to be militant enough to do a good job and still be sufficiently dignified to demand a finer place in the mind of every public minded citizen. It is something see*4 0.111111111.1...* otololmmiatINFM• AAe should all aini fur es eve worker, whether Ise is in a . fac- tory or on a farm, should realize that we are all in need of a bet- ter understanding and a more unified aim. In a country with such possibilities we coula show the world what a working peo- ple can do for themselves," Producers: Consumers, We agree with Mr. Gamble as to the necessity of more sine bet- ter membership education and believe that public relations of unions could be considerably im- proved. This applies to oath, la- bour and farmers, who inciden- tally realize it and discuss these two points at most every conven- tion_ Here is a wide field for the jpint committees established only a few months ago by the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and the Ontario Federation of Labour, and also by the Ontario Farmers' Union and the Ontario Federa- tion of Labour. We heralded these committees at the time -as hopeful achieve- ments, but have not heard of any of their activities. Not .an easy job by any means considering that labour unions like farm marketing associations are profit business organizations with the aim to get at large a share as possible of the price of the finished product for their members. As producers they nave no other choice in a competitive system. There is, however, one plane on which their interests are identical -- as COnautners. As producers we want to get as much as possible for our prod- uct. As consumers we want to buy it as cheaply as possible. This is the point where the field of co-operation begins.

This is how it happened. In 1051 a- young German walked into a Wolverhamton hospital with a tumor which necessitated the removal of an eye, and he agreed that the cornea should be given to Mr. Connolly. The operation was a great success. Then, by an almost incredible coincidence, a few months ago another German with the same complaint went to the hospital. He also agreed to give the Brit- ish ox -soldier the cornea of his useless eye. Mr. Connolly has never met the two Germans whose eyes have restored his sight, but he hopes that one day he will be able to thank them personally. -tat.cru TRAVEL AT `I`k6RIFT-SEASON' RATES A truly merry Christmas awaits you in your homeland tamen gots his year.
