THE Cat A °t SPORTS COLUMN
vtratotio
fr The most sporting football game
played in Canada this year didn't take
place on the gridirons of the eastern
Big Four, nor the Western Conference.
Doubtless these grim battles in Canada's
upper pigskin brackets bad their inci-
dents of sportsmanship. But not the kind
to which we refer.
The most sporting game of all was played on McGill's big
football bowl, September 19. It was Canada's nearest ap-
proach to the Rose Bowl game that hits the peak of United
States college football biory, And, 'as in the Rose Bowl
it was college, vs. college, and east vs. west.
This game was of high sporting merit because it was
designed for a fine purpose, that of establishing, or contri-
buting to a fund to make life brighter for Canadian paraple-
gic war heroes.
University of British Columbia sent its football team east
to play McGill. The game was the first of what is planned
to be an annual event for the Winston Churchill trophy.
The grim old British warrior and statesman who defied Nazi
air power at the lowest ebb of Allied hopes in the last
World War, gave his consent to use his name for a trophy.
There is a trophy record -book, which will be kept in a com-
partment of the famous sculpture "The Onslaught", a suitable
receptacle, for the fine piece of work is by Dr. 'rate McKenzie,
famed Canadian sculptor, a work that is the property of the
University of Pennsylvania and depicts with great vigor and
vibrancy, a charging football line. Each year, the auto-
graphs of the competing teams will be inscribed in the re-
cord -book, and it will become, over the years, a valuable con-
tribution to the history of Canadian college football.
The game was played in the presence of two of the Domin-
ion's most colorful mayors - Fred Hulme of Vancouver and
Camillien Houde of Montreal.
Mayor Hulme kicked off in this, the first east -west college
classic to aid the Canadian Paraplegic Association. Similar
to famous yearly Shriners Bowl games in San Franisco each
New Year's Day for the benefit of crippled children, the
Canadian "Paraplegic Bowl" game is expected to become
an annual attraction with the '1954 game to be played in
Vancouver.
As the most sporting football game of all, in Canada, this
column heartily commends it, for its scope, its sporting spirit
and its fine objective.
Your coinntents and suggestions for this column will be welcomed

by BOB FLUS
If it is true, as the Globe and
Mail. reports, that "spokesmen
of labour" are supporting the
mining companies in their de-
mand for an increase of the
price of gold, it is time to ring
the fire bell.
An increase of the price of
gold means inflation. It would
cut the value of the dollar in
the same proportion as the value
of gold is officially increased.
Pensions, annuities, interest re-
turns, savings, wages, bonds
would be worth that much less.
Those who own property would
profit, but those who have to live
on a fixed amount of dollars,
which they receive weekly or
monthly, would be the losers.
Supply and Demand
Only last week we felt com-
pelled to deal with the campaign
going on against government in-
terference with the "law of sup-
ply and demand" in the agricul-
tural sphere.
If only governments would
withdraw their supports of farm
products and let prices find their
own levels, all would be well,
say the wizards of finance.
Why then do they not want
to let this good old law of sup-
ply and demand work its mir-
acles in the gold market?
No mining company is under
obligation to sell its gold to the
government at the controlled
price. There is a free market
for gold and they are free to
sell at the free price.
Why don't they do it? Because
the government price plus the
government subsidy is higher
than the price on the open
market, •
Subsidies
The government price Is Am-
erican $35 per ounce of fine gold
which at present exchange rates
amounts to Canadian $34,44.
Ream-Bunctiaus - This ram Is
somewhat phlegmatic as he per-
�FaaIts a a boisterous 'White Rock
per -
Pelt
to craw from his perch
atop that wooly ono'!; head,
ani
Under the Emergency Gold
Mining Assistance Act the Can-
adian government grants sub-
sidies which, according to the
Globe and Mail, are "running at
about $2.35 for each ounce of
newly mined fine gold" going to
the mint. Fixed price plus sub-
sidy add up to $36.79.
The current price `'on the
world free market is only about
$36.00. Since shipping charges •
have to come off this figure, it IS
"not sufficient to tempt produc-
ers away from their principal
customer, the Canadian mint."
The mine operators are not in-
terested in a free market; they
prefer government interference
with the price of gold. They say
the lasting cure is in "the hands
of the United States Government
or the International Monetary
Fund, which they say would
raise the price of gold at a nod
from the American Treasury."
We hope the American Trea-
sury will continue to nod on its
treasure in Fort Knox and not
nod at the International Monetary
Fund.
Agreement is Possible
So far we have been told that
of the three union demands for
higher wages, shorter hours and
the revocable voluntary check-
off, the first two could be set-
tled. In view . of net profits for
the companies of up to $6,000
per man employed, an agree-
ment should not be difficult to
reach
We were given to understand
that the main obstacle to an ag-
reement between miners and op-
erators was the check -off which,
as the president of one of the
largest companies said, would
not be granted as long as he
• lived.
Now we ,hear that "rising
'labour costs and prices of mach-
inery and other materials have
made it unprofitable to dig gold
to sell at $35 an ounce."
Protest against Horse Deal
If it is the intention of the
operators to use the emergency
situation created by the strike in
the Porcupine for a horse deal,
higher gold price for check -off,
We protest.
We protest in the name of
farmers, wage earners, pension-
ers and all those who have tried
to save a few dollars of their
meagre earnings for a rainy day.
No names of • the "spokesmen"
for labour were mentioned in
the report. Knowing the leaders
of the United Steelworkers as
being aware of their responsibili-
ties, not only towards the mem-
bers of their union but towards
all working people, *we wonder
who .these "spokesmen" were.

Boy's Best Friend - There's true
year-old John Sottile gave his
recently reunited at St. Mel's s
previously been walking with
a car, seize'ti the dog,
friendship in this hug that eleven
dog :Beebee when the two were
choot. Johnny, a deaf mute, had
his pet when a man drove up in
and drove away with it.
It isn't very often, in sport,
that you find members of the fair
sex competing, on equal terms,
with the males. In the top brack-
ets, that is. There are, we believe,
girls who could hold their own
in such pastimes as croquet, rifle
shooting and yacht -sailing; and
we have known one or two who
could - like Damon Runyan's
character Miss Silk -"palm a pair
of dice as good as any man."
However, at the Royal Winter.
Fair this month, folks will get
an eyefull of a young lady who
not only competes on even terms
with the menfolk, but who, often
enough, tops them at their own
game. Patricia Smythe - better
known Over 'Ome as "Our Pat"
-may not be •the first to reps
sent her country in International
show -jumping; but she's un-
doubtedly the first that ever sel-
ected, schooled and trained the
horses she rides in this spectacu-
lar and risky sport.
* ',
Pat Smythe comes naturally by
her love for, horses and her knack
with them. Her father was in the
British cavalry; and her mother,
herself a fine horsewoman, taught
Pat to ride at the mature age of
four. And she 'was not long in
showing that she was better than
a raw hand with a mount. By the
time she was ten she was good
enough -mounted on a pony
named "Pixie" -to tie for first
prize at the famous Richmond
Royal Horse Show in London.
*
When show jumping revived
in 1946 "Our Pat" had arrived.
A natural aptitude for horseman-
ship, plus good judgment and
shrewd counsel from her mother
enabled the still very feminine
Pat to compete at shows with
growing success. By 1949 she had
made the international grade. In
the following year she set, on
Kilgeddin, a European high jump
record of 6ft. 107/sin. Since then
successes in all the major Euro-
pean show jumping centers -
Madrid, Marseilles, Paris, Rome,
Nice, London - have corse her
way and the hundreds of rosettes,
silver salvers and stirrup cups at
her home bear testimony to them
all. 'a *
Neither Tosca, a gray mare of
uncertain Irish ancestry, nor
Prince Hal a massive chestnut
gelding reject from the race-
course, who are now touring with
her had jumped before being pur-
chased at bargain prices by "Our
Pat". Today it is doubtful if any
money could buy them. Their
insurance value is understood to
be in excess of £2,000 each. It
