Expert and novice, amateur and veteran can fulfill the am- bition Of winning an angler's prize, The Rossport Derby attracts more entrants than any other fishing derby in these Dominions. Last year, there were 758 boats and 2186 contestants from the United States and Canada. Rossport is a picturesque 'village surrounded by some of the most scenic areas of Northwestern Ontario, It nestles in the shelter of the high hills, with their forested slopes sweeping down to the lovely shores of Lake Superior, A flare -gun fired on the big day at the stroke of 8 AM will send the myriad craft racing toward "The Gap," where the big trout lurk deep in Superior's waters, There are power -boats, sail -boats and even row -boats in this motley cavalcade, and lines and lures are flung into .the waters by the hundred. Lake trout are big, hard -fighting fish. The winners are judged by the poundage of their catch. Last year, trolling from the same boat, Maurice Thompson, a drugstore pro- prietor from Nipigon, Ontario, hooked the winner. It weighed 32 pounds, 11 ounces. Mrs. Rita Ray, from Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin took second -place lasrels with a beauty tipping the official Derby scales at 29 pounds, 15 ounces. ' %t's a real sporting event, for sports -minded folks. It grows in volume and interest every year, ranking with the best fishing derbies anywhere, and it is certainly one of Canada's most picturesque sports events.

H RSE SE .I jSE ae r By F. (BOB) VON PIfLAS Thies is Canada, founded en the blood and sweat of men who left their homelands to escape arbitrary government or reli- gious persecution and wanted to live as free men in a free coun- try. This is Canada, whose fifteen million people sprung from 26 different nations, none of them an absolute majority, yet all •united in their,faith in the Bri- tish tradition of fair play and freedom. This is Canada, the one coun- try in the two Americas which has not gone insane by suc- eumbing to totalitarian dictator- ship or falling into a hysteria of calumny, bigotry and smear. This is Canada, where free- dom,, of opinion and tolerance of opposition still prevail, Let us keep it that way. Pioneers and Pioneer Spirit With the exception of a couple Of slanted articles and some mud slinging, all coming from the same quarters, the response to our reports exposing the abandonment of the principle of producer controlled orderly mar- keting, has been very encour- aging. Canadians who are either pioneers themselves or still close enough to the pioneer rrpirit • of their forefathers to realize the value of freedom, do not intend to surrender their civil And natural rights to an all- powerful state, but want to look after their own business them- selves. Majority Should Prevail Only seven. years ago, at the National Marketing Conference, banana King -- But not by choice, Allergic to almost all foods suitable for a seven- month -old boy, -including milk, Bradley Savage, Jr„ of Chicago, M., lives on a banana diet. He oats an overage of six a day. the President of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture was reported saying that "our pro- ducers have reasoned that if the great majority agree on a mar- olleting plan, than the will of the majority should prevail to carry out the plan" He also gave this definition: "An organized marketing plan under legislation is a Croup of citizens who produce the same commodity and who are given Iegislative powers to perform certain services for themselves." Mark the words "a group of citizens . . to perform certain services for themselves." No thought there of getting a pater- nalistic government to do it for them. 01d and New Leadership How strong the farmers' be- lief in these two basic princi- ples of majority decision and self-government is and how little they want to abandon them, be- comes evident in a resolution of t he Ontario farmers Union which protects "against the eo- liths' taken by the beef produ- cers in setting up the organiza- tion known as the Canadian Meat Council." The Union believes it is "wrong both in principle and in practice," because, "this plan can only advertise meat and tends to distract the attention of farmers from a definite produ- cers marketing plan." The 'second and moat illumin- ating reason given for rejecting, the Meat Council is "that be- cause of the importance of the prefect, the intent of the meet- ings should have been made known in newspapers advertis- ing the meetings; that majority farmer opinion is not reflected in the meetings held, as a case is known where one man voted' for a whole township at a coun- ty meeting." Ontario farmers are getting tired of being imposed upon by a small minority; they are find- ing out that the old leadership has led them nowhere; their pa- tience is running out. That is why they are swelling the ranks of the Ontario 'Farmers Union. Organized Hypocrisy As to faith in governments, we may not quite agree with Disraeli that 'a Conservative government is an organized hy- pocrisy"; we are, however. al- ways aware of the fact that governments a n d legislative bodies are made up of politi- cians who want to stay in power and therefore nerd to be vigil- antly watched.

Face To Face With Sport - F. Cadlo, at left, of the famed Glasgow Rangers, comes face to face with the ball during an exhibition soccer match with the Chelsea Club of London, at Triboro Sta- dium in New York City. Both sides won "goose eggs" nearly as big as the ball, cis they fought the final game of their North American tour to a 0-0 tie. At right, only a "mudder" could love Jockey Mike Weisman, in this condition. Up on Mambo, he had just been on the muddy end of a race at Lincoln Fields track, near Chicago, 111., when this picture was taken. Here are a few words of ad- vice for ball players who would like to fatten their batting av- erages -.- and they come from a man who, although he was ratheron the small side — got the nickname "Little Poison" be- cause of his ability to make even the greatest pitchers look mighty sick. * * "I think ball players use poor judgment in selecting bats," said Paul Waner, now a hitting coach in the Milwaukee Braves organi- zation. "One of the most com- mon mistakes is to take a light, 33 ounce bat simply because you can get it around quicker and swing harder, "I never weighed more than 150 pounds when I was playing ball, but always started the season with a 42 ounce bat. Even during the heat of summer I never swung one under 38 ounces. "The more wood there is in the bat, the better chance you have of getting ee piece of the ball," Paul pointed out. "You also have a better chance to meet the ball squarely. Remem- ber that most all of the great hitters swung heavy bats and they weren't all big men, either." * * * Next, some pearls of wisdom — they, too, come from an ex- pert — to some of you ambitious future Walter Johnson's, Dizzy Dean's and Sob Feller's. * * , "The job of a big league coach is much like that of a golf pro, except that we work with pro- fessionals, not amateurs," said Frank Shellenback of the New York Giants. "You don't change the style of a pitcher. You try 60 help each man get the most out of what he has. You're asking for trouble if you try to make over a pitcher. Carl Mays threw underhand, Walter Johnson sidearm, Lefty Grove overhand and all were successful. If a pitcher has a natural style, that's the way he should throw, "A lot is made of throwing to a batter's weakness," Shelien- back went on. "Sure, we have hitters tabbed. But there are no set rules. The main thing is to keep the ball moving. By that I mean, vary the speed and the placing of each pitch. You can have all the speed in the world, but if you don't mix your pitch- es, the hitters eventually will gauge you," "Why do they keep on arguing with the umpires when they know they can't win -- that the best they can expect is the worst of it?" This is a question that's heard in the grandstands and bleachers a zillion times every season. 1 * k Here's how umpire -baiting is viewed by Mel Harder, coach of the sensational -- for the time being at least, Cleveland Indians. 7 * * "Every time l see a ballplayer thrown out of a game for argu- ing with an umpire, I can't help • wondering if he really belongs In the big leagues. A man who is expected to take part in the game every day should never ' lose his head. "We all know that there are . times when a player has- to squawk," Harder went on. "You wouldn't think jot rlf him if he didn't show some fight. But he should know when to stop — know when he's on the verge of getting thumbed out. Because you can't drive in the winning run or strike out the final batter in the clubhouse." * * * And although old Casey Sten- gel is finding the trail a bit rock- ier than it has been for the New York Yankees the past few years, he still doesn't seem to have let it get him entirely down and out. * * * A couple of baseball writers were in the Yankee dugout, talk- ing about the 'once popular blooper pitch as thrown by such now departed hurlers as Buck Newsom and Rip Sewell. Casey Stengel was asked how he would have hit the blooper, if it had been thrown in his time. "Well, I'll tell you exactly how I would have hit it," the man- ager of the Yankees replied. "As a matter of fact, I've given it a great deal of though." His listeners waited with strained patience for what they were certain would be interest- ing strategy from one of the game's wise men, Finally Sten - gen said: "I'd stand at the plate in a normal batting position until the pitch left the mound. Then, just before it reached me, I'd turn around, take a healthy swing and hit it up against the backstop." High-`: ouflcing Steel Strange as it may seem, a ball of steel will bounce higher than one of rubber, though a rubber one will bounce higher than one of weed. However, an average - sized ball of steel would be ex- tremely heavy and hard to lift. W h at makes a substance bounce is its elastic, or springy, quality — how much it can be stretched or compressed and still return to its original size. Steel is one of the most perfectly elas- tic solids, while rubber is actu- ally rather poor in elasticity. It can be stretched or compressed rather easily, but does not return accurately to its original size.
