What is more to the paint, just think: of what a gulden opport- unity was missed at the start of the now -defunct Canadian football season, What a clean-up could have been made if somebody -- prefer- ably ourself — had pussesscd en- ough Tnoxic to take all the "expert" selections and forecasts, and play them with the copper oil! * M * Let ns see now. In the Big Four —or "Little All American" as some of us prefer to call it — a few of the prognosticators weren't certain whether the 'Moutreal Alottettes or the Ottawa Rough Riders ;would take it all. Still, must of them cal- led the final standing as Ottawa, Montreal, Hamilton, Toronto, The real order of finish, as you probably recall, was the exact reverse of that• 'Y'es, indeed, somebody who didn't consider gambling immoral —except, of course, when you lose —could have picked up a nice piece of change right there, :k �' k • In the Intercollegiate, it was much, the sante thing, McGill, quoth the seers -- especially those around ro nd that dear oldlforryell — were much t00r St All f the res g or t of the lads. As tes aeon went on we were told that McGill was not only a great team, but probably the finest ever to perform in col- legiate circles. Well, Maybe they were; but they didn't act that way when .the chips were down. And the wettest crying towels hung out the Monday morn- ing after the Western - McGill playoff by no means belonged to members of the Montreal rooting section. Several of those towels were the property of folks in other parts who — forgetting that the experts who had been so consistent- ly wrong all Autumn could slip up again — followed the "wise money" and bet on McGill instead of taking some, of the juicy odds that were being offered against Western, * * It would be laboring a point un- necessarily to refer at length to Western Football. Vire all knew, because we lead been informed enough times, that the Calgary Stampeders were a cinch to repeat for the Western title, and probably for the Dominion Championship too —the biggest cinch that had conte up since one Thomas Dewey was running for President of the Uuited States. One would have got you at least five if you'd had nerve enough to bet that the Stampeders wouldn't take the trip east—twenty or more if you'd said they wouldn't even get into their league playoffs. Yes, this has been a season of golden opportunities missed by the bushel—a season when you didn't Bleed to even get out the form charts and try and pick them for yourself. All that was necessary was to let the experts make their selections— then bet those selections with the copper on and be sitting snug and i cosy all winter long. Still, you didn't do so, and what's s the use of our rubbing it in? But, d for that platter, NEITHER DID WE, Unless the Argos manage to I1 knock off the Winnipeg Blue Bon~- t' hers — a matter still in doubt as we write these lines — this will go down in history as one season when we didn't win a single foot- t ball wager.
