Lions Slogan By JACK SULLIVAN Canadian Press Staff Writer British Columbia Lions may not win many football games--and that's an understatement but they aren't pikers. The club, the wealthiest in Canadian pro foot- ball, apparently is willing to spend money as if cash is out of style, Take last week, for instance President Harry Spring of the Western Interprovincial Union club, blithely told shareholders that head coach Wayne Robinson was free to shoot the works In efforts to give the city a winning club in 1959, After all, the Lions have been in the WIFU since 1954 and still are looking for a playoff spot, Spring apparently veasn't fool ng. NO LIMITATIONS Robinsou, he said, had no limi. tations placed on him with re- gard to the amount of money he could offer any player. He was free to make any player pur. chases or trades that he con' sidered desirable and, sald Spring "at such prices he considers reasonable." That was enough to make any coach envious of Robinson, But Spring was just warming up. "I further told coach Robinson that If he at any time experienced was somwhere in the United | States searching for talent but you can bet your bottom buck any Interference from the general manager or any director, he should imunediately Teport it to the president, Some will say we that every Lions shareholder fervently hopes he is a "reason. able" fellow about prices when| |signing players | Unfortunately, too, there | weren't too many football officials|famed catcher Bill Dickey with at home to comment on Spring's|a $1,000 fine and a 30-day sus remarks.
