03 3, 1948 THE -DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE THIRTEEN © SATURDAY, JANUARY | Spicy Bits |From Other Sports Cols. *¢ , By H. DENT HODGSON {Canadian Press Staff Writer + Ottawa, Jan, 3--(CP) -- That you are looking "large "orifice down belongs to Mr, Samuel Fox, | L. Laplante ho may be remembered as the' ate coach of the late and failing ttawa Rough Riders of the Big 'our headaches. He fs down in Washington now, ére the climate is more suited to gridiron talk, and, as Sammy 'always has done,' he is indulging controversial + gun-beating -- iways an interesting sport when Mr. Fox is the man behind the 'yvocial chords. A The lanky character with the _ big pose and even bigzer mouth has had his feet in hot water ev- ' ersince last spring when, before { ever seeing a Canadian game, he | called Joe Krol "just another g Joe," 'Now, in an interview with Bob (Washington Post) McLean, he © discloses , that' he taught Canad- ¢ fans the forward pass. Listen to A j some of his U.S. capital inter- 5 view; -- "Fox is one of a group of Am. | ericans who entered Canadian ! Football this year and revolution- ized the game by teaching the players the art of passing--Am- erican style." The story goes on to say that Sam.is 'full of ideas" for future development -.of the Dominion game, . Dumb Lilke a Fox!! "Sammy," says Jack (Ottawa Citizen) .Koffman, "a good en- ough fellow whose greatest fault is his habit of talking too. much, must have an idea this country is nothing but a village, inhabit- ed by people who don't know the score, ,. «ft. probably would be inter- esting to Sammy Fox to know that there have been fellows op- erating "in Eastern Canada foot- ball for some 17 years who could give the said Mr. Filcock and the Gabby Mr. Fox a lesson or two in passing. "Sammy might have proved a good. Coach had he learned to control his tongue . . ." » Olympics Aga The Canadian Amateur Hockey 'Association, Tommy (Ottawa. Cit- . izen) Shields says, should sharp- en up. This after statement from Al" Pickard, President of the C. A.H.A,, saying that the R.C.A.F, Flyers, Canada's Olympic hockey contenders, should have a game, "praferably against' one.of the couiitry's top senior clubs." «Just what Mr. Pickard Is go- ing to learn," says Tommy, "by 'matching the nd with a high- class senior sextet ig something we cannot understand. "Probably Mr. Pickard, the main in the best position to know, hasn't been told that Sgt. Frank | Boucher has been given an inter- b> mediate team to take to St. Mor- itz. Surely, the R:C.A.F, and the kA H.A. have come in for enough criticism to date without asking the Air Force Club to tackle the (Ottawa) Senators, (Montreal) Royals, Shawinigan Falls Catar- acts, Hamilton Tigers or some such other Senior outfit, .."

But don't some of them do that now--starting at the first? Judge Fraser Harrison of Liver- pool Fy he ma ioned ideas but he doesn't believe it's a "matrimonial offence" for a man to play golf. He granted a decree of divorce to Paul Bates on the grounds of desertion by his wife, Emma. Of Mrs. Bates he said: "She is obviously a very attractive wom- an and if she in the absence of her husband, is sitting on the sofa dressed in her pyjamas with a man who is 'not her husband, it is, to my old-fashioned ideas rather peculiar."

Phila. delphia drafted Alexander from Syracuge in 1910 for $500 and the Syracuse Club thought it was a pretty good deal , .. Seems that Charley Carr, who had Alex at Indianapolis, also was interested in a sporting goods company and wanted the New York State Lea- gue to adopt his ball.

Perhaps they're neglected because, with tue small bore, they're the most difficult of guns to clean proper- ly. You're more likely to devote hours to slicking up your boit action 30.06, which you prob- ably shoot only a few times a year, than you are to picking up the old .22, which probably leans in a corner somewhere all set for a rabbit. hunt or a little target shooting and giving it a once ov- er with cleaning rod and gun grease. Don't take too seriously the ammunition anufacturers' assur- ance that since their cartridges are fitted- with non-corrosive pri- merg there's no need for cleaning the gun in which they're used. It's true that the fulminate of mercury primer passed out of the picture years ago. It encouraged condensation .of salty moisture which produced rust. But oxidat- ion can still develop in neglected barrels, and so can leading and pitting, thus throrough cleaning is almost as much a necessity as it ever was, ALWAYS clean a barrel from the butt end if possible, since this eliminates the possibility of nick- ing the rifling. This 'has been guarded aganst in many rifles by crowning the muzzle, or round- ] ing it so the handle of the clean- ing rod cannot come in contact with and mar the termination of langs and grooves, y. own cleaning procedure is as follows, though others are equally effective, First I run a couple of patches through: (the dirty barrel, making certain that while the bits of cloth are large enough to follow the rifling, they are not so tight, they'll jam, Then I pass a brass or nylon cleaning brush through the barrel several times, keeping the tube moist with nitro solvent. Later I run several mqre cloth patches through the barrel, then, after all residue has been remove ed, a small patch or two heavily greased with Rig. There are other gun greases than Rig, but it happens to be the one with which I'm most familiar. "It's a good rust preventive for the outside of the barrel and for the receiver, too. Oil firing pin and action with a good gun ofl, but don't overdo it. Under frigid conditions graphite is a good substitute for oil on some parts.
