The most sporting game of all was played on McGiil's big football bowl, September 19. It was Canada's nearest ap- proach to the those Bowl game that hits the peak of United States college football blory. And, as in the Rose Bowl it was college, vs. college, and east vs. west. This game was of high sporting merit because it was designed for a fine purpose, that a£ establishing, or contri- buting to a fund to make life brighter for Canadian paraple- gic war heroes. University of British Columbia sent its football team east to play 1VIcGill. The game was the first of what is planned to be an annual event for the Winston Churchill trophy. The grim old British warrior and statesman who defied Nazi air power at the lowest ebb of Allied hopes in the last World War, gave his consent to use his name for a trophy. There is a trophy record -book, which will be kept in a com- partment of the famous sculpture "The Onslaught", a suitable receptacle, for the fine piece of work is by Dr. 'Tate McKenzie, famed Canadian sculptor, a work that is the property of the University of Pennsylvania and depicts with great vigor and vibrancy, a charging football line. Each year, the auto- graphs of the competing teams will be inscribed in the re- eord-book. and it will become, over the years, a valuable con- tribution to the history of Canadian college football. The game was played in the presence of two of the Domin- ion's most colorful mayors — Fred Hulme of Vancouver and Camillien Houde of Montreal. Mayor Hulme kicked off in this, the first east -west college classic to aid the Canadian Paraplegic Association. Similar to famous yearly Shriners Bowl games in San Franisco each New Year's Day for the benefit of crippled children, the Canadian ''Paraplegic Bowl" game is expected to become an annual attraction with the 1954 game to be played in Vancouver, As the most sporting football game of alt, in Canada, this column heartily commends it, for its scope, its sporting spirit and its fine objective. Your comments and suggestions for this column will be welcomed by Elmer Ferguson, c/a Calvert House, 431 Yonge S,., Toronto. o The most sporting football game played in Canada this year didn't take place on the gridirons of the eastern Big Four, nor the Western Conference. Doubtless these grim battles In Canada's upper pigskin brackets had their Inci- dents of sportsmanship. But not the kind Calvert DISTILLERS LIMITED AMHERSTSURG, ONTARIO a. ..Plaut Horse Sense.® by BOB If it is true, as the Globe and Mail reports, that "spokesmen of labour" are supporting the mining companies in their de- mand for an increase of the price of gold, it is time to ring the fire bell. An increase of the price of gold means inflation. It would cut the value of the dollar in the salve proportion as the value of gold is officially increased. Pensions, annuities, interest re- turns, savings, wages, bonds would be worth that much less. Those who own property would profit, but those who have to live on a fixed amount of dollars, which they receive weekly or monthly, would be the losers. Supply and Demand Only last week we felt com- pelled to deal with the campaign going on against government in- terference with the "law of sup- ply and demand" in the agricul- tural sphere. If only governments would withdraw their supports of farm products and let prices find their own levels, all would be well, say the wizards of finance. Why then do they not want to let this good old law of sup- ply and demand work its mir- acles in the gold market? No mining company is under obligation to sell its gold to the government at the controlled price. There is a- free market for gold and they are free to sell at the free price, Why don't they do it? Because the government price plus the government subsidy is higher than the price on the open market. Subsidies The government price is Am- erican $35 per ounce of fine gold which at present exchange rates amounts to Canadian $34.44. llom 13unetious — This ram is somewhat phlegmatic as he per. mils a boisterous White Rock rooster to crow from his perch atop the wooly one's head, LLIS Under the Emergency Gold Mining Assistance Act the Can- adian government grants sub- sidies which, according to the Globe and Mail, are "running at about $2.35 for each ounce Of newly mined fine gold" going to the ,''lint. Fixed price plus sub- sidy add up to $36.79. The current price on the world free market is only about $36.00. Since shipping charges have to come off this figure, it is "not sufficient to tempt produc- ers away from their principal customer, the Canadian mint." The mine operators are not in- terested in a free market; they prefer government interference with the price of gold. They say the lasting cure is in "the hands of the United States Government or the International Monetary Fund, which they say would raise the price of gold at a nod from the American Treasury." We hope the American Trea- sury will continue to nod on its treasure in Fort Knox and not nod at the International Monetary Fund. Agreement is Possible So far we have been told that of the three union demands for higher wages, shorter hours and the revocable voluntary check- off, the first two could be set- tled. In view of net profits for the companies of up to $6,000 per man employed, an agree- ment should not be difficult to reach We were given to understand that the main obstacle to an ag-° reement between miners and op- erators was the check -off which, as the president of one of the largest companies said, would not be granted as Iong as lie lived. Now we hear that "-rising labour costs and prices of mach- inery and other materials have made it unprofitable to dig gold to sell at $35 an ounce." Protest against Horse Deal If it is the intention of the operators to use the emergency situation created by the strike in the Porcupine for a horse deal, higher gold price for check -off, we protest, We protest In the name of farmers, wage earners, pension- ers and all those who have tried to save a few dollars of their meagre earnings for a rainy day. No names of the "spokesmen" for tabour were mentioned in the report, Knowing the leaders of the United Steelworkers as • being aware of their responsibili- ties, not only towards the mem- hers of their union but towards all working people, we wonder who these "spokesmen" were.

Johnny, a deaf mute, had previously been walking with his pet when a man drove up in a car, seized the dog, and drove away with it. It isn't very often, in sport, that you find members of the fair sex competing, on equal terms, with the males. In the top brack- ets, that is. There are, we believe, girls who could hold their own in such pastimes as croquet, rifle shooting and yacht -sailing; and we have known one or two who could — like Damon Runyan's character Miss Silk—"palm a pair of dice as good as any man." However, at the Royal Winter Fair this month, folks will get an eyefull of a young lady who not only competes 011 even terms with the menfolk, but who, often enough, tops them at their own game. Patricia Smythe — better known Over 'Ome as "Our Pat" ' —may not be the first to repre- sent her country in International show -jumping; but she's un- doubtedly the first that ever sel- ected, schooled and trained the horses she rides in this spectacu- lar and risky sport. Pat Smythe comes naturally by her love for horses and her knack with them. Her father was in the British cavalry; and her mother, herself a fine horsewomen, taught Pat to ride at the mature age of four, And she was not long in showing that she was better than a raw hand with a mount. By the time she was ten she was good enough—mounted on a pony named "Pixie"—to tie for first prize at the famous Richmond Royal Horse Show in London. When show jumping revived in 1946 "Our Pat" had arrived. A natural aptitude for horseman- ship, plus good judgment and shrewd counsel from her mother enabled the still very feminine Pat to compete at shows with growing success. By 1949 she had made the international grade. In the following year she set, on Kilgeddin, a European high jump record of Oft. 107/sin. Since then successes in all the major Euro- pean show jumping centers — Madrid, Marseilles, Paris, Rome, Nice, London — have come her way and the hundreds of rosettes, silver salvers and stirrup cups at her home bear testimony to them alt ' Neither Tosca, a gray mare of uncertain Irish ancestry, nor Prince Hal a massive chestnut gelding reject from the race- course, who are now touring with her had jumped before being pur- chased at bargain prices by "Our Pat". Today it is doubtful if any money could buy them, Their insurance value is understood to be in excess of ,52,000 each.

TW Harringay, London, arena that the girl from Gloucestershire won three of the main events at the annual "Horse of the 'Year" show that concludes the British season. They were secured in spite of strong home and European con- tinental male challenges. The Harringay Spurs, awarded for the highest score by a jumper under Federation Equestre In- ternationale rules, also went the same way. 4 ,I, e In the horse -jumping dodge they have some odd rules, You can accept money for prizes and still be a simon-pure amateur; but if you take dough for teach- ing horsemanship, right away you are a dirty pro. Pat Smythe could become a very wealthy woman by teach- ing—but, up to now, she prefers the kick of high class competi- tion. And, down at the Toronto Coliseum thousands will be pull- ing for her to prove that, from an equestrian standpoint, "the female of the species—" aw, you know how the rest of it goes.
