Lions To Assist Other Clubs VANCOUVER (CP) -- Good news for Edmonton, Winnipeg, Regina and possibly Calgary. British Columbia Lions will be able to help them out of their financial predicaments to the tune of about $80,000 this year. Herb Capozzi, general mana- ger of the Western Football Conference club, estimated this week that amount as the Lions record contribution to the con- ference's gate equalizaton pool. Last year the club put $65,- 000 into the pool. The pool is designed to help poorer clubs. An average net revenue figure is struck for the conference. Those above that figure contribute to the pool, those below it are paid from the pool. to reach a Canadian Football League record of 256,000 after Sunday's final game of 'the sea- son here. Capozzi figures that Winnipeg attendance at home of just over Blue Bombers, with an average 13,000, will receive $35,000 from the pool. Edmonton Eskimos should get about $30,000 and Saskatchewan $15,000. U.S. Golfer Takes One-Stroke Lead SAN. JOSE, Calif.

Fines NEW YORK (AP) -- Ernie Ladd, San Diego Chargers huge defensive tackle, and veteran Houston Oilers' quarterback George Blanda have been : 'slapped with the heaviest fines The Lions expect attendance) levied against players in the five-year history of the Amer- ican Football League. Commissioner Joe Foss handed down the fines Friday for "actions detrimental to the best interests of the American Football League' in Jast Sun- day's Houston-San Diego game. Foss also warned that further infractions would draw stiffer penalties, Foss, who said the fines were the langest against players in the league's history, declined to announce the amount. The New York Daily News, howeyér, said it had learned that Ladd's fine was $500 and Blanda's $250.

Although it is designed to at- tract the younger set, federal officials hope adults will be FC) tempted to read it as well. The comic book is the most ambitious project yet in a de- termined campaign to alert Ca- nadians to the need for retain- ing. wetland areas as. wildlife refuges and farm water reser- voirs. It was prepared by the Canadian Wildlife Service, the federal agency primarily re- sponsible for protecting migra- tory birds. Entitled The Swamper, it tells of a big city reporter's search for. the facts behind a contro- versy over the use of wetlands. The 81 comic panels show how the . reporter; first sceptical, sees the benefits of wetlands at first hand and becomes a de- voted advocate of the preserva- tion program. BIG PRAIRIE ISSUE Initial printing of the comic book, done by the Queen's Printer, ran to 267,000 English copies and 25,000 French. Postmen will deliver 100,000 copies to rural homes in. the Prairie provinces where the snare the Lions. wetlands issue is a major one. Others will he distributed) 15, through sportsmen's clubs, con- servation groups and hunting licence yendors across the country. Copies were sent earlier to United States agencies and the reaction has been enthusiastic. J. C. Carlsen, wetlands pro- gram supervisor for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sent a congratulatory letter to the the "accurate, intelligent" pres- entation, There was some early hesita- tion here in giving the go-ahead for printing because of the Lib- eral government's sensitivity to "comic books." The Liberals turned out a political comic book during the 1963 election campaign and reaped harsh eriticism for their trouble. Resources Minister Laing's concern over the wetlands sit- uation finally overrode this ob- jection. No advance distribution of the comic book was made in Ot- tawa; however, apparently to sidetrack political critics until the comic book actually gets into general circulation and people know exactly what it's wildlife's service here praising|ask 'Yogi oe May ay Be Back With Stengel ar Yeah Beets en iam Golfer Yogi ad wit e something to sa r ale ee about the latest devel-| Louis Cardinals in seven opment in his baseball career.| In New York Thursday, Weiss The former New York Yan-|Sald there has been "no con- kee manager was reached at/crete discussion of type of his home by telephone Thurs- job he might be hes in." day night on the eve of his de-! nut Weiss said he wanted Berra parture for a 10-day golfing hol- iday at Pinehurst, N.C. and understood that he was @ "What: about this New York|{ree agent.
