0 The oldest partnership in major hockey,
now extending beyond the 20 -year mark,
still carries on. We refer, of course, to the
Milt Schmidt - Porky Dumart community
of interests, which started when they were
juniors In Kitchener. Since then, with the
exception of a season when Dumart played
with Boston Cubs in a minor league, while
Schmidt continued to serve his apprenticeship with the home-
town Greenshirts, they've never been apart. When this was
written, they were still the Damon and Pythias of the ice -lanes,
in Boston Bruin garb.

36 soon — March 5 is the date. Dumart has slowed down some-
what, but Schmidt carries on at an undiminished pace, one of
the all-time greats of the game, mainspring of the Boston team
for so many years, that he is now taken for granted in the
Hub. For, as a skinny 18 -year-old, he joined that club in 1936-7,
and a long fourteen years Iater, years that encompassed. his
World War II service, he blazed to glory as winner of the Hart
Trophy as the most valuable player to his team in the League,

it is accepted in Boston hockey circles as a certainty that
when, if ever, his playing days are done, Schmidt will become
coach of the club, white the present coach, Lynn Patrick will
succeed the veteran Art Ross as general manager of the Boston
team. And the most significant remark on Schmidt's value to
the club came from Coach Patrick.
"Schmidt will never be as good a coach as I am," declared
Patrick. "Whenever we're in trouble I just look' down the
bench and yell for Schmidt to get out there. But when Milt
becomes coach he won't.. be able to do that because there'll be
no Schmidt available. For I very much doubt that there ever
will be another Schmidt."
Dumart, like Schmidt, joined Bruins in 1936. Soon after,
there came front. Kitchener a third and notable partner to the
twosome, in the person of Bobby Bauer. This threesome be-
came known as the Kraut Line, in tribute to one of Kitchener's
favored dishes, and in the season of 1939-40, they performed
the unusual feat of finishing 1-2-3 in the scoring race.
Bauer retired, but Schmidt and Dumart still carry on, the
oldest partnership in hockey.

PLAIN NORSE SENSE
a®
By BOB ELLIS
"It was looking none too bright
until last year," said Mr. V. S.
Milburn, - secretary -manager of
the Ontario Federation of Agri-
culture, as quoted in the press,
Then we got a hog marketing
board and both cheese and soy-
bean, producers got action. Now
peach and wheatproducers are
making headway. Biggest thing
out of our Ontario meetings is
demand for more marketing ac-
tivity. It overshadows every-
thing else."
Orderly Marketing
Perhaps the most important
resolution carried at the Annual
Convention of the Ontario Fed-
eration of Agriculture, was the
demand for a national confer-
ence on marketing of farm prod-
ucts,.
Critical of the last dominion-
provincial conference in Ottawa
all November 1953, at Which only
questions concerning production
were discussed, the delegates de-
cided that the problems of mar-
kets and prices are of more im-
mediate and urgent concern to
the farmers of 'the country.
Farmers .are beginning to re-
alize that they have to deal with
their affairs through co-operative
action, not only on a local or
provincial, but on a national
scale.
Sadly missing on the agenda
of the convention was a resolu-
tion calling for legislation pro-
viding for national marketing
Operation Shape -.Parisian dan-
cer Oaby Gruyere is busy gofting

agencies for any commodity
whose producers want it.
That the resolution asking the
government to let the OFA re-
view all proposed legislation be-
fore bringing it down in the
Legislature, was talked out by
the executive, should not b of
any great importance. No sen-
sible government should be ex-
pected to introduce legislation
concerning the interests Of any
group of people, without first
consulting the representative or-
ganizations of the group,
Processing Facilities
Faced with contracting mark-
ets and shrinking prices, it is no
wonder that farmers are paying
more attention to the distribu-
tion end of their business. They
should keep in mind, however,
that longer supply and shorter
demand will make it difficult,
maybe impossible, to keep mar-
keting orderly by "direction"
only.
To function properly, a mar-
keting agency needs the "pow-
er to market" which means buy-
ing and selling. Eventually to
counteract any ganging up of
buyers, producer associations will
have to establish their own co-
operative processing plants. ,
'Half a dozen meat packing co-
operatives, along the line of the
one in Barrie, strategically plac-
ed all through the province,
might do wonders in keeping
rice g
prices an even keel at times
of sudden gluts. By the same
principle the fruit and vegetable
growers could do much to im-
prove their situation if they
would set up a few plants of their
own.
If the fisherman in the Mari-
times can can .their lobsters, the
farmers of Ontario can do the
same with their peaches and
hogs.
BADLY MISTAKEN
A comely young lady, taking a
casual walk throught the coun-
try, came upon a secluded mill
pond. The day was warm and
the water was inviting, so she
removed her clothes and dove in.
As she eenjoyed . a swim across
the pond, a small boy came by
and promptly tied her clothes in
knots. When she swam back,
she surveyed the situation, grab-
bed up an old washtub and,
holding It In front of her, march-
ed furiously toward the little
boy.
"You nasty boy," she exclaim-
ed, "you know right well what
I'm thinking."
"Sure," said the bay. "You're
thln1dn;g that tub has a bottom!"

The recent visit to Toronto of
the Choong brothers, . and the
ease with which ,they mopped
up their Badminton opponents,
has aroused increased interest in
the "biff the birdie" pastime, and
in the extent to which our
Asiatic friends now appear to
dominate same.
* * *
The "Davis Cup" of Badminton
is the mug presented ' by Sir
George Thomas, known as the
"Thomas Cup," first competed for
in 1948-49 when the finalists
were Malaya and Denmark, with
the former winning out. The
Malayans successfully defended
the cup in 1951-1952, the finalists
being the U.S.A. Now, with the
third of these triennial contests
coming up, NO LESS THAN
SEVEN CHALLENGERS FROM
ASIA ALONE are due to
compete.
*
The seven, land details of how
then have . drawn in the. Asian
zone, of the 1954-55 tournament;
are
Ceylon vs, Pakistan
Thailand vs. India
Hong Kong vs, Burma •
Japan, a bye
* * *
Choice of ,courts lies with t e
country named first and the fi st
.round has to be completed°' y
July 31, 1954, The zone final as
t be decided by 'the endlof
March next year. Inter -zone ties
--^ Australasia, Europe and
America are the other zones —
are due to take place in Malaya
during the month of May, 1955,
unless any two zones concerned
should mutually agree to play-
off elsewhere.
x e
The challenge round is pro-
visionally arranged for June,
1955, at Singapore where the
public is very Badminton con-
scious and the takings are con-
fidently expected to cover the
zone finalists. Which countries
will reach that stage and which
will ultimately challenge Ma-
laya can be anybody's guess in
a game still rapidly expanding.
Internationally, Badminton has
widened its sphere more than
any other sport since World War
II. In that period the IBF,
founded in London in July, 1934,
has trebled its membership to
30. And with members coming
from all the five continents Bad-
minton may tl my 'be described
to have arrived nog;" rr"d.„game.
Speculation ala"bb.f€` zOi win-
ners and the challenge round
finalist accompanying' Malaya is
influenced by a number of events.
One is the return to the game of
the greatest exponent of shuttle-
cock control the world has ever
known — David Freeman. The
Californian, who was undefeated
from 1939 until he retired in 1949,
emerged to become champion of
U.S.A. again in 1953. Another and
probably more significant factor
is the dramatic upsurge of the
- Asian countries in which sport
and games have become a social
phenomenon.
* * *
Blessed with the natural apti-
tudes of feline agility, instant
coordination' of thought and
action and tractable yet steely
wrists, Asians are superbly
equipped for such rapid -thinking
quick -moving games as Badmin-
ton, field hockey and squash
rackets. In them they show signs
of dominating the world. Cer-
tainly that is true of field hockey
with Indikundefeatecleundefeated in five
world tours and it is equally
true of .Badminton with Malay
holding the Thomas Cup and
roviding at -least 12 out of the
29 ranked players today.
So here, dear reader, is still
another name in which the dark-
skinned races are surpassing their
teachers, and if this sort- or -thing
goes on much longer, all that
stuff .. about "Nordic athletic
superiority” will have to be
dumped down the drain. In base.

subject for discussion by the
"Hot Stove League" boys some
Saturday p.m.—but if they ever
took it up, you can bet that they
wouldn't dig very deep into the
