"No more broadcasting or tele $ vising of fights" is the latest edict of The British Baxing Board of - Control -- a move. bound to come in for plenty of criticism from vari- ous sources, especially those close to the business of Radio and Teles vision, Speaking personally -- and - as ome more concerned with sport 2s a pastime than as chiefly a money-making racket -- we think it a move in the proper direction. : * . . When sports broadcasting was in its infancy, we remember much dis: cussion as to what its general effect would be. Those who argued that it would help to popularize sport, and increase interest, proudly point to the sell-out crowds at big league hockey and baseball, championship fights and so on, saying that broad- casting did a great deal in making FRER them possible. i % * L * Maybe they are right, at that. Perhaps broadcasting did. -- and does -- help fill places such as Madison Square Garden, Montreal k Forum, Maple Leaf Gardens; and | the couple of millions of dollars Louis 'and Walcott are liable to i, ) draw a few months hence might not have been possible without all the aerial ballyhoo to make folks more fight-conscious, and to wrap uw mantle of respectability around the boxing game. - : * * * But 'what of the other side of the picture?" Ask the small-town hockey manager how many potential dol lars of revenue will fail to show up \ in the till should his scheduled j 5 C game happen to run into the com- i bination of stormy weather and a as >it night when Foster Hewitt is on the air -- or even only the latter, With the option of sitting at home and listening to a couple of mationally- known top-notchers tangle, or of --------------------going-out--and--helping--to--support-- boxing in your own community, which are you going to choose? For that matter, which is the healthier condition -- a few million. youngsters out playing baseball' on 'their own of an October afternoon; or crowded around radip sets list- ening to the doings of New York Yankees .and Brooklyn Dodgers? pos * * * With television looming larger and larger, the tendency will be even } greater for the general public to con- centrate on star allractions, to the detriment of lesser sports events. "More and more this will tend toward our becoming a continent of sports- i : lookers, rather than sports-players. For a while this will be OK. with those who "control and profit from those bigger allractions -- another case of "the rich jet richer andthe poor get--children." But there may be a day coming when even those who Apok on them as fine sources of re- Yrenuwe might wish they hadn't com- mitted themselves so" deeply to the Television and Radio people. Tsal's why we say we think the move of the B.B.B.C. mightn't be such a bad thing after all. » Ld aH Ld It may not be a case of "The King is dead. -- long live the King" -- but if the King we-are speaking -- of -- last name Clancy -- isn't quite a subject for the mortician as yet, even his closest friends and great- est admirers, and he has plenty of both. must admit that the old flam- ing fire is in danger of dying down Sports - And One Thing or Another By FRANK MANN HARRIS _ "A Sixbit Critic") itis id din tators at a recent Toronto hockey game received a terrific shock when a Boston player rudely pushed Re- feree Clancy roughly out of the way and received, in receipt, nothing more thdn 'a pained look of remon- strance, : . * . For there was a day -- and not s0 long 'ago: -- when "The King" didn't wait for any overt act before springing into instant -and violent acion. We aren't quite sure, but we think it was Chuck Conacher who first described Clancy as "the guy that started a million fights -- and has yet to win his first one." Anys way, we do cherish in memory dozens of picures of Clancy in the very thickest part of a brawl and Conacher reaching out one of those huge paws to rescue his belligerent friend and teammate, * * * But now Clancy lets himself get pushed around without flinging a misconduct penalty, let alone a right swingl Yes -- the old fires must be dying down; or else when Presi- dent 'Clarence Campbell issues those letters of his, telling players and .officials how they must all positively act like little gentlemen on every occasion, only the latter bother to read them, Maybe the present-day playe1, when he receives a_letter that fails to request either a picture or an -autograph, just \tosses it in the waste-basket as not worthy of attention, x x x Although recently several millions of dollars were added to the food- budgets of Canadian families, right along the ling 'rom the farmer to the retailer, cverybody concerned 'absolutely denies getting a penny of the increase.

He little foresaw the day when it would become the favorite winter sport of hundreds of thou- sands, and a means of attracting millions of tourist dollars to Canada.

"Ski Skills" "Spills, Chills & Thrills" was the marquee slogan one theatre used last winter in describing "Ski Skills," a National Film Board film devoted to skiing in Canada, when the film played in over one hundred theatres. across This year--again in the approp- -riate season--"Ski Skills" is being: rural circuit the counties film of --how-or-other-twe-are-reminded-of-the school teacher who had been giving his class a lechure yegarding some of the world's greatest men, in which he had referred to such figures as Napoleon, Lincoln, Edison, Shakes- - peare and so on. pe £ % h = "Now tell me, Abie," *he addressed one pupil when the lesson was finish- ed.
