12 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, August 7, 1964 we TERRANCE HIND Western Sportsman Ponders Retirement _ By WALTER KREVENCHUK thinking of getting out, At least, that's what he says. "The day has gone when you just open the door and expect people to come in," said the 43- year-old bachelor wistfully dur- ing a break from his duiies as vice-president and general man- of Winnipeg Goldeyes, one 7 two Canadian teams in or- baseball. , "It's a sacrilege and a trav- esty the things you have to use to Bet people to come to games. Getting fans out has been a problem for Terry for 11 years, a period in which he has served as Manager and president of Winnipeg Maroons, currently Canadian senior hockey cham- pions; secretary - manager of the Manitoba Junior Baseball Teague; honorary president of the Manitoba Junior Baseball League, and boss of Goldeyes of the class A Northern League. After early success -- Gold- eyes. showed a $40,000 profit in # the 1957-60 period -- Hind has found it "a terrifie challenge in the last few years to keep peo- ple coming out. "There were times when I came quite frustrated and dis- couraged." MAY MAKE MONEY Faced with a "make or break" season this year, Hind feels he is winning the battle. He figures he has found "the key to the door" through a se- ries of promotions ranging from a supermarket night to triple headers com bining baseball, wrestling and boxing. He is confident the Goldeyes, after losing money in 1961, '62 and 63, will hit 120,000 attend- ance for 61 home games this year. This would bring out the black ink for Goldeyes who bear responsibility for $41,000 of the $100,000 club budget, the rest falling on the shoulders of the parent St. Louis Cardinals. Despite a career in baseball that began with inspiration from his father, a top amateur pitcher, and continued through to the management of Godeyes, Terry says hockey's Maroons are his "real love." Recalling the hockey team's start in 1950, he says: "It was terrifically tough in those first years. We were'nt really wanted, had no place to prac- tise and no league to play in."| Maroons still have some of} these problems but have nn- aged to reach the Canadiar fi- nal three times and to win the national crown once. CREDITS MANAGER Terry says the credit for Maroons' championship should go to the current manager, Bud Holohan, who with a number of [Hockey Association recently HIND AT WORK -- Terry Hind, 43, of Winnipeg, holds evidence of the paper work involved in his duties as vice- president and general man- current Maroon players cav- orted on the baseball diamond with Hind years ago. The Canadian. Amateur picked Maroons and their coach, Gordie Simpson, to form the nucleus of Canada's team in the 1965 world hockey cham- pionships. Terry's efforts for Winnipeg baseball and hockey are not without recognition. Three years ago the Manitoba Tourist and Convention Association voted him its Golden Boy award. In 1961 Hind sought a new) challenge, turning to politics) and winning a Winnipeg alder- manic seat. But he doubts he'll seek a third term in October, saying "I haven't been a good aderman, unfortunately." "I don't think i's my cup of) tea. I'm really concerned with Goldeyes' make-or-break sea- son and have subjugated things I should do as an alderman." jhampered with injuries ager of the Winnipeg Gold- eyes, one of two Canadian teams in organized baseball. --(CP Photo) | Ph ag. aD Pe Fee ee 'Fancy Symbol' As Fourth Win At Greenwood TORONTO (CP) -- Fanny Symbol made it four wins in her last five starts in gaining a nose decision over Homestead Dan in the Junior Invitation Trot Thursday night at Green- wood Raceway.
