THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO ~SPORT NEWS Junior Hockey Teams Rounding Into Form The fears of Bowmanville hockey fans that Bowmanville junior tcams might not appear in competition during the coring winter have now been dispelled for both Juniors and Midgets are busy practising every week. When service clubs came to no agreement as to sponsorship and there was stili no rink in pros- pect in this town, Moe Breslin stepped into the picture and en- tirely at his own expense assured the boys they would have every opportunity to practice and enter league and playofi s. Brcslin's Red Raiders had their first tryout on Oshawa ice, Nov. 14. By chartercd bus the Juvenile squad, OMHA, 25 strong, wcnt to Oshawa and had a workout that displayed very strong talent. Some Midgets of last year show- ed form that will challenge reg- ular Juveniles on last ycar's team. Coach Breslin states that the Ju- veniles will present a strong, hus- ky team in the league. On Nov. 21, no less than 49 Mid- gets went to Oshawa by charter- ed bubs to fight for places on the teamn. There were several stand- outs including 2 or 3 newcomers to town. The practices showed fast, dlean hockey and after the team positions have been fillcd, the prediction is that Bowman- ville should finish high in the league. Candidates wishing a try- out should contact Mr. Breslin. The best portion of a good man's life is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.-Wordsworth. CKEY 580 8 p.ni.

HockeySidelights By Ed Fitkin, Assistant Publiclty Director, Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto When Toronto Maple Leafs harrassed by a jittcry defense, re- callcd Ernie Dickens from Pitts- burgh last week, they may have been guided by the fact that the Iast time they rccalied beetle- browcd Ernie thcy not only ciim- inated a defensive wcakness but won a Stanley Cup champion- ship for the first time in 10 years. That was back in 1941-42 before Dickens donned RCAF togs and went overseas. He and Bob Goldham, another brasb young rookie who had been rccalled from Hershey just before the erd of the league campaign that sca- son, formed a novice defense that was nothing short of sensational as the Leafs, after losing three straight to Detroit, came on to take four in a row from the Wings to climax the most spcc- tacular Stanijey Cup series in bis- tory. Now Dickens and Goldhamn are reunited, perhaps history will repeat. The fact that the tcamn alrcady bas picked up impetus is a significant omen. Dickens, in a sense, is a shadow walkcr where Wally Stanowski is concerned. Ycars ago Mhen Ernie and Wally the Wisp were juniors around Winnipeg, Lorne Chabot, former Leaf goalie, was exccptionaliy bigh on Dickens and told Toronto's No. 1 Scout, Squib Walker, to make sure he was on the Leaf list. But Squib shook his head. "I'm taking Stanow- ski," he said. Chabot was disap- pointed. "You should take Dick- ens," he said. "You'll be sorry." That was Shadow Walking In- cident No. 1. Thç second chapter occurrcd in 1941-42. By that time Stanowski was wowing 'cm with his swPrving, rink-long solo sorties and though Wally's expe- ditions seldom led to goals, bis box-office rating was second to none. The fans idolized him. Dickens, who had become a Leaf that fali, found Stanowski his ne- mesis again. Unable to supplant Whirling Wally Dickens went to Providence for seasoning. That was the season wben .Earnest Er- nie finally got his big chance in the Stanley Cup finals and made good. The fates were beginning to smile on hlm. Or so he thought. This fali, back from the war front, Dickens hit the Leaf train- ing camp dctermined to grab a regular berth. But no. Six other rearguards wcrc sclected ta stick with the Leafs-and Dickens hît thc minor trail again to Pitts- burgh. Stanowski was one of the six-and there was Shadow Walking Incident No. 3 staring Ernie in the face. It couldn't go on indcfinitely, Ernie rcasoned to hîmsclf, and it didn't. Squib Walker, scouting the Leaf farmhands in an effort to elcvatc to the Leafs players whô would help the club out of its carly-scason slump, dccidcd that Dickcns might fil the bill. So Ernie is back with the Leafs. And whose place is he taking? That's right-Wally Stanowski's!

Mr. Nichols was the eldest son of the late James Nichols and Agness Parsons and was born on August 27, 1875, near Wcsleyville. In 1905 be married Martha Amelia Brown of Orono wbo died seven years later, and in 1915 he married Ella D. Buchbeister of Caneadea, N.Y., who survives. A member of Wesleyville Meth- odist Church sincc bis boyhood, he was a member of the choir there whcn a young man, and has been a willing helper in commun- ity activities. Mr. Nichols was interested in travel and enjoyed many scenic trips with bis wife through U.S.A. and across Canada. He is survived by bis wife, one daughter Amelia, Mrs. Sidney Lancaster, Newtonville, and two sons, Alfred and Carroll at borne. Two brothers, Albert J. of Bow- manville and Stanley of Leaside. The funeral service was held in bis home, Nov. 4th, and was con- ducted by Rev. Dr. Oke. Palîbearers were close nelgh- hors, Arnold Austin, Edgar Bar- rowclough, Richard Best, Alfred Holdaway. Harold Reeve and Wil- liam Tufford. The lovely fiowers were ex- pressive of the sympatby of the fricnds fpr those who mourn, and a tribute to Mr. Nichols. Contmller MacCallum (Continued from Page One) federal authority was too busy winning the war. Housing Housing, for instance, could flot be viewed as a municipal prob- lem, yet municipalities, by the very exigencies of the situation werc forced to deal with it. Tor- onto witb an increase over nor- mal of 63,000 working people, largcly brought in on federal war work, was also faced with the problem of caring for returned men, many witb wivcs coming witb tbem. The city couldn't see people walking the street and had to move to ameliorate a situation fraught with the danger of ser- ious disturbances. Prcssed by these conditions the city took moncy from genieral revenue to which tbey had no legal rigbt and sought every means for housing. Ottawa, last year, built 250 bouses and thîs ycar 600, but for lack of arca, thc latter wcrc *built outside the corporatc limits. Ot- tawa said if you want these you'll have to provide services, sewer, watcr, etc., and the city had to spend $300,000. The total extra costs to date were $1,400,000 and with no hope of getting a cent back from the responsible auth- ority. In this respect, Toronto was the one instance in Canada suffering wholly this imposition. This briefly, was but one phase of an intolerable situation. Labor Problern An equally serious problem was that of labor. The city council has continually to hear labor groups asking the municipality to do sometbing. Today it is an hy staying at FORD H 0 T EIL JOS Modern, rireproof, cm"ntly toccrtud, lasy pwkiq as low as $150 ne perperson poil MAP et FOLDER. wl" FORD NOTEU CO. Montroal $2.50 to $4. imminent and grave situation and it is sprcading. The problem was not one of local govcrnment, but it had to be met. Mr. MacCal- lum agreed that solid trade un- ions wcrc here to stay, but he saw faults on both sides. With too many agitators on one side and too many recalcitrant employers on the other, it was time the peo- pic took a stand. We must get back to the pre-war basis of co- operation or we aIl are bound to suffer. Believing that intelligent men, for instance those found in ser- vice clubs, should take an active interest in settling the strif e pre- sently growing, the speaker ad- viscd that once back on a plane of sanity and agreement, Canada was destined for an unpreçedent- cd era of prosperity and expan- sion. Toronto bas budgeted for 40 millions in the next few years for civic improvements; the TTC will spcnd over 50 millions and more than 200 firms are now look- ing for floor space. Both federal and provincial governmcnts have vast plans for roads and tourist traff ic. The vista is endless s0 we must settle our labor disputes or suffer repercussions retarding progress for decades. Town Planning In conclusion the speaker toucb- cd on civic planning, the creation of community centres. With fa- cilities properly created, this would be largely the answer to our growing delinqucncy problcm among both children and adults. With centres dcveloped for cul- tural activities, sports and recre- ation, children would find a bealthf ul, interesting environ- ment and beverage rooms nced no longer be meeting places. This planning must come from the bot- tom for what people really desire tbey will get. The force of pub- lic opinion is the tbing that moves legishatures to action. Publie Apathy The wisbes of people arc cx- presscd at the polîs and Mr. Mac- Callum quoted Toronto figures showing percentages of accredit- cd voters wbo exerciscd their franchise. The low was 19.9 and the highest 35 per cent. He held that it should be at least 85 per cent. "Take an active part" said Mr. MacCallum, join some pol- itical movement; get out and vote for you have the power in tbis room to make this town." And tbat is truc ail across the nation. Too many with a stake in their communities simply do not ap- preciate it. The applause which followed was re-empbasizcd wbcn Lou Dippeli moved the vote of tbanks. Andy Thompson voiced the feel- ing of ail in tendering apprecia- tion for the excellent duets by Mcl Dale and Owen Nicholas, with W. E. C. Workman at the piano, and tbanks as well for the Carter Fa- mily in catering so capably for the gathering. Club business included Jack Cole's report that 19,368 lbs. of used clothing bad been gathcrcd at a net cost of $52.25. Frank Mcllvcen and C. H. Carter won Rotary fiowers for their birth- days.
