Sports - And One Thing or Another By FRANK MANN HARRIS =^^====== ("A Sixhit Criric") ==^^=== Right now, in honor of Princess Elizabeth's forthcoming marriage, people of various Canadian com- munities are preparing to send over donations of food to the under- nourished people of Britain. Then, in just a few months, we propose to ship a whole bunch of hungry ath- lete* and their hangers-on over there, to take part in a set of games which the British â€" and the rest of the world, for that matter â€" are about as much in need of as they need a third World War. If that doesn't figure out as a screwball proposition, any way you look at it, »t least it should serve till the real thing comes along Of course it will be argued that the Canadian 01\-mpic athletes will take their own food along with them. To that we reply, O.K. â€" send that food to be eaten by folks who really need it, and let our athletes stay at home. * * * It is our personal opinion that the British authorities have made a great mistake in not calling the whole thing off before this, as it puts them in a false position â€" especially in the United States â€" to be stressing their need for Western World assistance and. at the same time, preparing to stage such an unnecessary and fool- ish aft'air as the Olympics. But if British pride won't allow them to cancel the show, at least let us stay out of it. Right after a family has come through a combination fire and eunbqiiake isn't the time to go paying thiin social visits, even if they arc close relatives. * * * '/7u' /•i'/i/ii-fl/ orator Kas tiorking uf> toxi-ards liis peroration and. like most of liis tribe, using flenty of oldies a.< though they zvcre iiriu- iiiiiited thoughts of his oiin.. ."After alt. tiiy frii-:;ds." he said, "nothing in this t.\>rld is absolutely certain, e.r- cel>t dmlh and taxes."

And it was between two amateur teams, ot course for wc all know that vvc linvcii't any such thing as professional football in Canada. * * * That's the way the whole sweet- scented atTair stands at this writing; and it should be a warning to all charitable organizations, too many of whom allow their names to be tacked onto promotions put through by gents who believe that Charity not only begins at home, but also ends there. One of the teams in- volved pot something between $4,500 and $5,(HK1 out of it ; which, even in these d:i>s of high prices, would buy quite a lot of train fares, bandages and liniment All we hope is that the crippled kids won't he asked to kick in to make up the deficit. * ♦ * No matter how they try to smooth it over or explain it away, we think that the Ottawa Trojans and Mont- real Alouettes have been guilty of a very grave mistake. It isn't so long ago that there was serious talk of taxing football on a professional basis, but the promoters of that sport managed to wiggle through without getting nicked. But now with this happeningâ€" and happening right in the taxinir anthorilios own back yard â€"well, when the inevitable takes place, they can console themselves with the thought diat they certainly asked for it ! * * * To many of those whose entire waking hours seem to be spent within earshot of that great inven tion, The Radio, nezi.s of Mr Petrillo's ban on any future mvsica recordings came as a ray of sunlight bursting through a dark and for- bidding sky. But nozs comes this airful thought â€" maybe those much- publicized gcnitises, the disk-jock- eys, are readying for us entire pro- grams composed of nothing but Singing Commercials! * • « .-Vccording to a recent newspaper report, the Toronto Maple Leaf Hockey Team has a friendly interest in, and lends an occasional helping hand to â€" among others â€" such ama- teur clubs as Toronto Marlboros, Senior and Junior; Winnipeg Mon- archs ; Oshawa Generals ; as well as one or more junior outfits in North- ern Ontario. * * « This may be all very well if you are one of the many to whom the success or failure of the Maple Leafs is all that really matters in the sport of hockey. But if you were just a sports-lover in a small town, trving to keep the kids of your com- munity interested in playing the game, we very muct fear that you wouldn't look at it in exactly the same light. In fact wc think that, sooner or later, you'd begin to wonder if it wasn't pretty near time for an entirely new deal for the little fellow not blessed with any such wealthy and generous relatives. « « « Into a Toronto restaurant the other day came a man â€" at least ht had the outzi'ard appearance of a maiiâ€"ii'ho proceeded to put on an amazing demonstration of sheer gluttony. Mousing down : he victuals at record-breaking speed, he got o-ivy ztilh four full-size meat or- ders â€" each zvith regular complement cf vegetables on the side â€" and then topped it off with nine separate and distinct desserts! Although trying to appear oblivious of the stares of the astonished specators, he was obvt- ously enjoying the sensation h* created. But he didn't linger long after an old gentleman, tvho had been zt-atching the performance, ap- proached. "If you're thinking of sell- ing yourself any time, Mister," said the old gent, "I'd adi-ise you to da it right azvay. as I don't think the price of hogs zvill ever get higher!" SomethinflT New: Iron-Bearing Cows Pity the poor cow in this modem century. Time was when Bossie could mind her «iwn busines*. cat what she liked. But not now. L«t her go oflE her fe«dL or get a Httk dry and a veterinary is on her tail promptly. However, the bst straw, from Bossie's point of view, it the btMt wrinkle being developed at the ft^ tario Agricultural College.

HEARS WIFE'S CRIES W Hen Alex Canaran heard his wife's cries, he nished out on the second floor balcony to see what was the matter. Realizing there was not a moment to lose, and that his wife could not possibly reach the child in cLme, be Tmulted OTcr the bdcooy and leaped two floors to the ground. IN THE NICK OF TUMI Attracted by the exdtemeat, the child's horror-stricken mother looked on as t nee de- Teloped between Canaran and the last-approaching train. The engine was only a few yards from the terrified child when Canavan leaped onto the tracks. Snatching the baby from almost under the wheels, Canaran burled himself and young Jackie clear. Together they rolled down the embankment â€" safe! Such cool courage and quick thinking in an emergency is worthy of the admiratioa of every Canadian.
