Little American sports news on down -under media
Ther(' is no place like home.
After six weeks down under we can certainly say it's great to
t home.
As a dedicated follower of professional hockey and baseball
it was difficult to exist that long without much news of what's go-
ing 00.
, The only sports events on television from North America while
we were in Australia were the Masters golf tournament and the
Ilagler-Hearns boxing match.
We did get a little news during a phone call home early in the
morning of April 29 which was April 28 at home.
From son Dan and son-in-law Brian we learned of the fortunes
<< of the Toronto Blue Jays and Detroit Tigers and which clubs re-
mained in the Stanley Cup playoffs.
Incidentally, the phone call from Christchurch in New Zealand
to London. Ontario cost $:32.10 for about 10 minutes.
Two days Tater when we started an 11 day tour of both islands
in New Zealand. it was a pleasant surprise to find 1:3 other North
Americans on the bus.
• Eight were from Winnipeg. -Two of these Hughie Allan and
Floyd Lovelace were ardent sport fans and supporters of the Win-
nipeg Jets.
They were surprised to learn we knew Paul and Perry Pooley.

get a good shot at making the Jets next season. She added." They
are very fine young men and a credit to any communit.'."
Hughie Allan is a retired Winnipeg Tribune photographer and

The Tribune headline the next day read." Gerry and liughie

It was Allan that told us of the death of Foster Hewitt. That
brought up a question from us about Jack Wells. who was the
Foster Hewitt of Western Canada sports broadcasting.
