Summer memories linger on WHERE do the summer go I know where the go They goon and on and em But Canadian summers seem to pounce out of a frigid spring like exotic plant and wither and die two months later I was looking forward to this past sum mer Lata of golf swimming loafing reading a good visit with my and arming back at school for the last four months before I quit tanned fit keen Planned to do some fishing a lot of walking and some travelling probably to the Maritime Well as Casey Stengel of the old Brook lyn Dodgers used to say Wait till next year Well murder the bums Ive played golf twice despite the beautiful weather because I haven had a leg to stand my right one Next year Im going to have It sawed off at the ankle and a tin foot Implanted aa the great Douglas did when he lost both legs In a flying accident got some artificial ones and went back Into combat u a fighter pilot Next summer Im going to swim every day at one of the great beaches In Canada even though I have two perforated ear drums I going to the Maritime if I have to hitchhike Im going to catch a trout if I have to resort to a stocked pond Icantwhlnetoomuch I did have a good visit with the I have a new one now He used to be Balind but the kids at school teased him for having such a funny name so he changed it to Ben And Ben he is now Not many people change their name at seven I also did a lot of reading and loafing preferably at the same time But Its hard to do both at once when your wife is talking ceaselessly about how she has stopped biting her fingernails how she Is planning to lose weight and sneaks down in the middle of the night and eats butter tarta what happened at her summer course In music and how many big bills are coming In against a rapidly shrinking bank account I planned to do some work on The Jungle the bushes around our property Too not The Jungle Is creeping closer every day and I would not be surprised any day now to see an orangutan leap from one of the oaks onto the roof There have been diversions of course The street on which we live was invaded by a construction crew about mid August and they will finish about the end of this week That keeps one on ones toes Theres nothing like the growling of a bulldozer outside your bedroom window at 7 am Its a grand summer operation though for elderly gentlemen kids and housewivei with nothing better to do than stand around and supervise a construction Job Parking your car is something else The construction crew digs a chasm 10 feet one sideofthe street and then fills It In again Dont ask me why They cheerfully throw In some gravel so that you can get into your garage Next morning you saunter out about a in to go and buy some milk or some thing Right behind your driveway Is the Colorado Canyon and youd need wings to get your car out and the crew is up at the other end of the street It takes a few days of hairy maneuvering before you give up and stick your car in the driveway of a kindly neighbor on ano ther street The big machines are not like puppets either looks as though a herd of elephants hid spent the night there having a square dance J a bit by the death of Ted Reeve the great old sports writer and athlete He was U and some reporter friends said he bad at least four unease about years ago A huge bunk of bone and gristle with a great broken beak of a nose and hands tike a couple of gnarled frying pans Ted Reeve was a gentle man and a gentleman except when he was clobbering somebody with a lacrosse stick or pounding an opposing lineman Into pulp First time I met him was in the Toronto Mens Press dub where be was wont to hold court with a collection of cronies I walked in a complete stranger ordered a beer and sat alone Within five minutes Ted Beckoned me over to Join the group He know who was didnt care but out of sheer gregartouBKSS didnt want Sotherelwasahlck columnist sitting with a group of top of the day Every time I met him thereafter hed wave me over He didnt even know my name but called me Wlarton because I knew a Stevie Stephenson from against whose father Ted had played lacrosse six decades ago Dirtiest lacrosse player I ever met but one of the best And finally I have a letter from Mrs Frederick Sevan of Vaynesbora Georgia She and her husband spent years on the prairies working our gun dogs She still takes her Review Her brotherinlaw was a W In and like to know where she could buy for him a copy of Boys Bombs and Sprouts which Id mentioned In this column Frankly I know Mrs But Its out in paperback now and 111 see that you get a copy even If I have to send you my own And thanks for your warm and generous letter So much for a beautiful summer I hope you had one My eardrum goes click about once an hour Maybe I should get a tin ear along with the tin foot and a tin nose which a doctor has been trying to get me to have straightened for years Any donors Obituar GergetwmActort Wednesday Oct B3 CURLING OPEN HOUSE LADIES CURLING SECTION OF
