thatintics from the sparkling 1948
beach/di season in the United States
;reveal that a record total of 20,849,-
824 fang attended the games of the
American and National Leagues. If.
for every one of those people, you
substitute two, then you will have
some idea of the enormous popular -
IV of Aseociadon Football in Eng-
land.
Huge crowds ere attending the
'week -by -week fixtures of clubs en-
gaged in the championship of the
:English League. Attendances be-
fore World Velar iI were 750,000;
they soared to 1,000,000 on the re-
sumption of league soccer in •1946;
and since then the graph line has
ahown a non-stop upward trend. On
a recent rainy Saturday afternoon
the officials count Was 1,171,732.
This tapped the previous best, 1,164,
014, established at the beginning of
the new season last August.
The English soccer season lasts
for approximately 36 weeks, and so,
by a simple calculation, it will be
seen that the seasonal aggregate
for 1948-1949 is likely to be nearly
40,000,000, or just about twice that
of the United States baseball tally.
For those who would like to go
Soto the compar on a little more
deeply, it should -be explained that
in the English soccer league there
are, in the four divisions, 88 teams
which each contest 42 engagements,
while in baseball there are 16 teams.
Following a recent decision by the
ATational Arbitration, to which the
delegates of the Players' Union took
their case after disagreement over
wages with the Football League
Committee, the professionals of the
English clubs now receive a min-
imum weekly wage of £7 t$28)
when working at top pressure dur-
ing the .cason and £5 in the sum-
mer. The maximum was advanced
to £12 in the season and £10 in
the summer,,, These financial limit-
ations apply equally to the national`
sup tournaments, with the exception
that a club may pay men an extra
£E2 each for taking part in a third•
round match and subsequently in-
creasing amounts to £12 for a final.
The total maximum is £24,
* Y Y
rhe reason for this relatively in-
pignificant remuneration for the
chief performers in a great show
ie that it is considered to be in the
best interests of what is essentially
a team game. 'Those in control say
there is no such player as a "match
'winner." Unsupported, no player,
however skillful, could win a match,
and, as a rule, a great deal of any
mar's luster is derived from the co-
eperation of teammates on the field
of play. Also, insist the soccer authe
orities, it is only a wage limitation
which makes possible the mainte-
nance of professional soccer clubs
all over the country. If clubs were
allowed to pay what they could, the
game would cbviously become an
affair only for big clubs in populous
areas.
Against this the players retort
that the team is an intricate ma-
chine, and that if the machine is to
be geared to high-power efficiency
then the constituent parts required
trust be appropriately paid for. The
players are also aware of the sub-
s etantiat profits the big clubs are
making—despite entertainment tax
--and although they know that in
most cases these profits are plowed
back into the game, they feel they
nhould have a sayy into which field
the plowing should be done.
The present code of rules were
framed in the days before soccer be-
came big business, and a major
rause of discontent among the play-
ers is that although a club can re-
ceive as much as £20,000 as a
transfer fee for a professional, the
player himself has no say in what
happens to this money, and can still
continue to draw only his basic
salary of £12 a week,
Under the existing rules, once a
player signs on the dotted line the
club, if it so wishes, can tie down
that player for the rest of his career,
When the yearly agreement ends,
the club may offer him terms for
another year's service, in which case
he is not able to sign and play for
another club in the rest of Britain
or in any other of the 60 countries
affiliated with the Federation Inter-
nationale de Football Association.
A player can refuse to sign — in
which case he receives no wages—
er he can request a transfer. The
club may grant or refuse the request
as it wishes. The players want to
lotroduce an agreement whereby
they are free to join any club they
choose any time after their agree-
ment ends.
The league 1 aniigeewnsA's reply
to this is that If pia}'ars are free t`o
come and go as they wish, there
up he no effective team building,
If at the end of the season the pro-
fessionals are allowed to go to the
slab making the biggest offer, then
ghviouely the wealthiest would have
the best and the championship
would automatically go to them:
alio small club would have a chance
of building a side and winning pro-
motion, linable to do this, they
would gradually fall from favor and

WRAP
GREAT BRITAIN
Although it never attained any-
thing like the popularity of its pre-
dtceesor of twenty years before,
"Tipperary", one of the most widely
aung ditties durin the early part
el World War Two was "1.111
Marlene".
It le now almost forgotten, But
memories of that song were revived
a recent anecdote regarding
Winston Churchill.
Not long ago the great British
War Leader had a vacation. at
Monte Carlo, One evening, while
dining at the Hotel de Paris, he
reeked the aschestra leader to play
"I iti Marlene".
The orchestra obliged. But next
sky Churchill hatted new instruc-
tions. "Please never play that song
&gain while I'm present—it made
roe dream all night of Rommel."
Rommel—EI Alamein—and all the
volt of it --how long ago it seems
e
FRANCE
Although most of the French
people fear—and with good reason
—the idea of a revived Germany,
with the possibility of further Ger-
seen aggreasion and perhaps another
war, there are thinking people in
the first -named country who are
earning to take a different view of
the matter.
These people believe that the
;lather weakening of German in-
dustry and the dismantling of the
great Ruhr Valley industrial aye -
tem will be a real mistake. In their
opinion the only way to make an-
other Franco-German wen impos-
sible is to develop such strong
Bonds between those two, end other,
Western European nations, that an-
other Eurt6uean conflict would be as
unthinkable as one between—for ex-
ample—France and Britain, or
Britain and the United fitatea.
This is the view taken in all art-
icle appearing in one of the great -
eat and most authoritative of French
newspapers—Le Monde, Paris—and
to onlookers in other countries it
tame as something of a shock. But
to many of the more far-seeing
among the French it represents
a little noticed, but highly signifi-
cant, change in public thinking in
their country. And to the Germans
k appeared as a glimpse of reason
at a time when the dismantling of
their great industrial system seem-
ed like nothing but vindictive re-
venge on the part of the victors in
the last World War.
The article in the Paris paper ap-
peared late in November. It took on
greater significance when the
French Foreign . Minister—Robert
Sehuman--gave out a semi-official
statement just before leaving for a
two-day conference In London with
his British "opposite number" For-
eign Minister Bevin, Schuman said
that hatred and vengeance had been
removed from French policy toward
Germany with a speed that would
have been impossible following
World War One,
To many thoughtful observers—
especially in Britain—Schutnan's
statement came as a real gleam of
sunshine on a cloudy and troubled
sky. They have been, as one re-
porter puts it, "for many weeks
aearching for some sort 'af basic
formula that would bring Germany
and Western Europe together." For
with a strong and united Western
Europe—which would have to, of
course, include Germany—the threat
of Russia on the westward march
would become far Tess troublesome.
But whether anything will come
out of such proposals .remains a
matter of considerable doubt. For
in the minds of the majority of the
French people, the name of Ger-
many still stands for that of an en-
emy—an enemy always fo be fear-
ed and kept, if possible, under
strongest reetraint.
SOUTH AMERICA
Latin America has long been
known as a land of many revo-
lutions, But recent happenings
down that way make one wonder
whether the latest of these repre-
sent just the keeping up of an old
South American custom, of if, in
those parts, there is a concerted
movement against democracy and
the democratic form of Govern-
ment.
Last October a military revolt
overthrew the popularly elected
Government of Peru. In November
a awift-moving group of army offi-
cials quietly but efficiently snatched
the reins of Government from the
elected 'President of Venezuela.,
Romulo Gallegos. During Decem-
ber a military clique in El Salvador
tossed President Salvador Castro
out on his ear, while exiled Costa
Ricans staged an armed invasion
of their homeland.
In Chile the government man-
aged to break up a revolution be-
fore it was well started, and the
President of Bolivia has been hav-
ing his own troubles with plotters
and schemers. And in other coun-
tries there were rumors of teouble.
To a casual looker on it almost
resembles the old situation of the
Irishman who—observing a brawl
going on—politely inquired, "Is this
a. private fight or can anybody get
into it?" But it may be far more
important than that, In most South
American countries, the masses are
terribly unhappy, and with good
reason. Why they should be so can
be seen from the situation in Vene-
zuela, whtre LESS THAN THREE
PER CENT OF THE PEOPLE
OWN MORE THAN SEVENTY
PER CEN')' OF THE LAND.
Trouble --really serious trouble—
seems to be a -making south of the
equator. And the rulers ---the ex-
ploiters of the masses --.stem to be
trying, through their military power,
to squelch that trouble before it
goes too far.
ROLL YOUR OWN

CIGARETTE / fM /' o11Yi,A ri cO
Good baseball empires are cheer'
ttically absolutely fair anti unbias-
ed in their decisions, Actually, they
aren't, but lean just a trifle to the
visiting club. As onc veteran ball -
and -strike caller—we think it was
Tim }Furse—used to put it, "Yeez
can do stuff in the gray that yeez
can't get away with hi the white."
W * *
By that he meant—as we have
most likely explained before—that
umpires tend to be a bit more strict
with the white -uniformed- home
team players, and to take less sass
and backtalk from them, than they
do with the grey clad visiting team,
4 5 *
The reason for this is obvious,
even though most umpires will
strenuously deny that they do do
anything of the sort. A home town
players who argues with the imps,
or shows signs of disgust at some
of the arbiter's decisions, is far
more likely to stir up trouble among
the farts than a visitor. So, the
home -towner often gets chucked
out of the game for things which
would get by with one of the. op-
position.
Continuing our unasked -for, and
no doubt unwanted advice to the
professional hockey folk, we would
advise thdt the President—or who-
ever it is that's the real boss of the
National Hockey League—should
instruct the referees not to be so
lenient about putting a player's cue
in the rack for the balance of the
game, or even for several games,
when he's guilty of actions designed
to set '•boil the feelings of some
of the morons who seem to attend
hockey in such -numbers these days.
y ,s *
Throwing., coins. and. torn. 5Io
pieces of paper is bad enough, but
when it comes to bottles, sooner
or later somebody is going to get
hurt, and very badly. Yet practically
all such ruhbarbs get their start
with some 'hone -town players giv-
ing the folks she idea that the ref-
eree is giving the local club all the
worst of it.
* W
A case in point—as the lawyers
put it—is a recent game at which.
Ray Getliffe was making his first
Toronto appearance as a whistle -
tooter. Most of those we talked to
afterwards—that is to say those
whose Opinions on hockey we rate
worth listening to—agreed that Mr.
Getliffe, although still somewhat
green, had turned in a pretty fair
chore.
W e
Yet front the sounds and .e:tia-,e
of a lot of Maple Leaf supporters, a
casual visitor might very well have
thought ',hat Ray was a direct, al=
though slightly illegitimate descend-
ent of Jesse James and a whole line•
of bandits reaching right back to
Attila the Hun, whoever he may
have been.
Why did such a. thing happen?
}Principally, perhaps almost wholly
because certain Maple Leaf athletes
were trying to cover up their inept—
to give it as kindly a description as
possible—play, by making the ref-
eree look bad. And the dumb fans
—mentally dumb, that is—fell for
it and fell for it hard in it manner
which was e disgrace to a town
where folks are supposed, to know
something about the game. .... ..
* * ,. *
i 1 e au
So, in addition L o the ggestioa
made at the start of this piece, we
have another couple to make, One
'is that the Maple Leafs should
have, in their dressing room, a
phonograph continually playing
nothing but that once -popular ditty
entitled, "11 Isn't What You t'sed
to Be. But What You Are Today."
The other=Utak the Toronto pap
ers should be ordered to eease and
desist from running any more pict-
ures showing„ Coon Smyth, with a
beneficent look on his face, bask-
ing in that nice Florida sunshine..
If they'd print pictures showing
Mr, Smythe's face showing the
expression it's liable to be wearing
when he collies north, and starts
telling the boys exactly what ails
them, it would be far more )?able
to secure the desired results.
For what's been happening to
our beloved Maple Leafs must
stop, and the sooner the better, For
already we know of several of their
most ardent radio supporters who
are forced to nerve themselves with
three or four stiff shots of soda pop
before they even dare to tune in of
a Saturday night, and hear the
Voice of Hockey tell of the dire
things that are happening down
around the corner of Church and
Carlton Sts.
•
In conclusion we would just like
to quote a few remarks regarding
the game of hockey as played to-
day, and the athletes who play it.
"They have no guts and they don't
know how to skate.—How can a
man expect to play hockey when he
strangles himself by skating bent-_
over like a pretzel,—He isn't any
good for more than two or three
minutes unless you attach a spare
skate to the seat of his pants,—In-
my days we played because we liked
to. For the players today it's only
plain hard work—and hard cash."
Now the gentleman who made
those remarks is not any Johnny-
comerlately or even a disgruntled
sports writer. His name is Eddie
Shore, who—if he isn't Old Alan
Hockey"- in person—comes close
to being that mythical being. Mr,
Shore played hockey as well as—
or possibly better than—any man
before or since his time, When Mr.
Shore opens his mouth and gives
his views on hockey, his Words are
worthy of, consideration. So,tvaybt
some of the rest of us haven't been
so far astray after all.
