SPORTS MENU "Everything from Soup to Nuts" by Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR TEEDER KENNEDY has announced that this will definitely be his final season in the NHL and following the well-known fact that Conny Smythe had to talk real turkey to get The Teeder to even play his term, it can be taken for granted that this time he is not going to be talked out of his retirement plan. As a matter * of fact, it's our guess that he was talked into "a retirement plan" or he wouldn't be playing this season. The Toronto veteran centre has been doing a lot of nice play-making, has a full share of assist points but his goal on Saturday night was only his fourth. It would look as if perhaps he is definitely coming to the end of the trail. That was his 219th NHL goal < a splendid mark -- but not a record. But what brings this on is the latest all-out effort to see if they can get The Lady B¥ng Trophy for Ted Kennedy, in his final season oi hockey. In years gone by, Kennedy has missed the All-Star team when we figure he should have made it. There were a few seasons when they could have awarded him the Byng Trophy too and fae selection would certainly have re- ceived no criticism. But we can not help but wonder at: this latest publicity campaign. Conny Smythe added fuel to the cause in his TV appearance on the Hot Stove League program Saturday night. Toronto scribes are taking up the crusade too. Maybe i will work, certainly 'we do mot begrudge Kennedy winning the Byng Trophy, but this campaign may ig ang ! THE BaLLYHOD program that may boost Kennedy, has several us» ldn't do 01 early in the season -- at to put Kennedy on a pedestal so the publicity expense of other members of his own team. They have one of the best left-wingers and perhaps the best goalie in the NHL, for this season, but if the scribes spend their efforts in the Byng-fer-Kennedy campaign, Sid Smith and Harry Lumley may suffer. There are other hard-working MVP's on every other NHL team also -- and they don't pull down very many 1 pelialiies either. Rangers lost Phil Hergesheimer with a hair-line e of his old broken-leg injury, when Hergy bumped into Ken- on Saturday night, A sheer accident -- but such similar hockey game incidents, which would go almost unnoticed ordinarily, will . be "given unfair significance if they crop up while Toronto Leafs » intevests are in the midst of ballyhooing Kennedy for the Byng : Trophy. Better not overdo it boys, or you'll spoil everything! Brockville Magedomas reversed the procedure om Whitby, in their game Saturday might. In Brockville on Friday, the Maggies had. a 40 lead, at the half-way mark in the second period and thew lost out in overtime, 5-4. Bus Gagnon got two goals and' an dssist while Attersley got one and one, to also boost his point- seoring total. It has been intimated that Whitby will protest the game on the grounds that Brockville used a player mot listed in their official line-up. Other week-end results saw Goodyears heat Belleville 52 on Friday but lose back home in Kimgston to Belleville 4-3 on Saturday.

Fredericton Curling Club Celebrating Its Centennial FREDERICTON (CP) -- The "Fredericton Curling Club is cele- .brating its centennial and mem- | bers have been noting with intec- est the tribulations that faced the pionger curlers. The~club was organized in the] store of John Neill in 1854, six "years a.ter Fredericton had gained its municipal charter, * In the early years the river ice provided the surface for the first games and the brooms were used to sweep away snow that feil in the midst of a match. STONES WERE MYSTERY The first stones used by the :lub had a.hard time getting into Can- ada because custom officials at | Saint John, the port of entry, didn't know what they were Mr. Neill promptly rescued his stones when he learned that the closest. the officials had come to guessing what they were was to call them shoemaker's lap stones Official founding date was Dec 16, 1854, but it wasn't until nine | years later that members started' looking for a site to build a rink with a roof over it. They finally found what they considered a bargain. The Uni- | versity of New Brunswick had a piece of land that could be leased | for $40 a year and the building | was bought for | ON SAME SITE The present rink, still on the same site, had its official opening on New Year's Day, 1884. In 1946 the building was extensively re- modeled. The old-timers sit back and re- lax in chairs watching the "young- sters" on the ice. For them tne game now is too civilized. The founder of the club, John Neill, once said in a letter to club members 'if the autocrats of all Russians and King William of Ger. many would introduce curling in their respective nations, and throw the curling stones alongside their subjects, they need not fear ni- hilistic or socialistic bombshells being thrown at them." g SPORTS IN BRIEF HIT BY TRAIN MRYSVILLE (CP)--Sam Hunt, | 0, of Bellevillé, was severely in- jured Sunday night when an ex- press train smashed into his truck on a crossing here. The train, en route from Montreal to Toronto, took a mile to stop. The youth was taken to hospital with a fractured skull. Hhe was thrown 100 feet by | the impact. The truck was de- | stroved in the accident at this| village 13 miles east of Belleville. | STRIKE IN 11TH WEEK | WINDSOR, Ont. (CP) -- The strike of 5700 Ford of Canada workers here entered its 11th week Sunday. The strike, which has spaead to two other Ford plants in Ontarid and prevented the pro- duction of any 1955-model Ford ve- | and fringe benefit demands. About 800 Ford workers at the assembly plant in Oakville struck 10 weeks ago, and four weeks. ago 150 employees at a rts depot plant in Etobicoke, a Tdronto sub- urb, left their jobs. TRAPPED IN CAR 3 OWEN SOUND (CP)--Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Wheildon of Owen Sound were injured Saturday when the car in which they were riding was struck by an oil tank truck on the highway five miles south of here.
