OUR READERS WRITE NFL football superior to brand Dear Mr Editor Your editorial Let see all the game which ran In the November of the Free Prchs failed miserably in its attempt to convince those us who shall we say are Harvard graduates of football education that CFI should replace American football on our TV screens mask of diplomacy and pedalling In which the editorial was cloth d did not conceal the writer feelings that a better brand of football is played in the CFI than In the NFL and American college Conferences To you sir we pose this question Would you to trade brand new car for a I960 model I m sure you would balk at the suggestion Why then would you consider it important to see NFL trade ins like Mini Max Anderson who rose as high as the Buffalo Bills taxi squad during his career Barton another taxi with a perfect passing record one pass attempted one intercepted and Bob Hudspeth who has the dubious distinction of having been cut by the New Orleans Saints when you could be the likes of Manuel Sistrunk Spain Spider and Godfrey Why should we be subjected to terribly Inept play of the Hamilton TigerCats on Saturday afternoons when offensive dynamos like Sonny Sixkilier Junior Ah You Grumpier rind Sugar Bear arc rewriting college football record books And finally with all due respect sir may I suggest that it is highly unlikely you would order peanut butter sandwich at the Ports of Call Why then would you want to have imateurish halftime shows like the one presented at this year Grey Cup occupying valuable space on the screens of our color TV sets What we need is class entertainment like that provided by the Marching 300 of Purdue and the Golden Girl The Bayou Bengal Band from Tigerland and the world famous Apache Belles from Tyler Junior College in Texas And where are our Curt Chris Sehenkel and Ray Scotf Mast we have the agony of listening to Johnny Don and Ernie prolonged Our suspicion is that CFI officials are well aware of the growing Canadian interest in the superior American game What other reason could they have for switching the Grey Cup gome from Saturday to Sunday than to avoid a TV clash with the Alabama Auburn game Signed I a Canadian but love the National Football Ieague note And I suppose Jr A hockey us better than PETER receives his tie from Murray Harrison DISTRICT COMMISSIONER Gordon Douglas into the Acton Thursday night Four Staff Photo of Georgetown invested a new group of scouts boys recite the scout oath Staff Photo Need grace of God for Ulster peace 1 I Dear Editor More on the land of the shamrock that symbol of divinity peace and goodwill which should be cherished by all true born Irish with the interest of Its welfare at heart We all know the woe and desolation that has been brought to Ulster by all those who have no interest in its peace and prosperity keeping It in turmoil with nothing to them The Catholic minority has been subjected to looking down the barrel of a service rifle carried by a B or C Special to dominate and intimidate the Catholics in Ulster for which there was no call for outside of a compromised fear the South for an The South has proved to the world that they can govern themselves and administer Justice and equality to all This is our purpose In life with dignity and humility as the slogan Since the takeover by British troops things have got worse and the British has turned it into a playground for her rascality which caused Kennedy to express his views on the diplomatic situation that the minority was placed in which was ill received by all want no solution or interferences on the playground To mention the grace of God may make it sound like a fairy tale but we all know that dignity and humility have no place in our lives without it So it is up to all of us to improve conditions in this world of ours by the grace of God to elevate the mind as the good made this world for us all to enjoy as our purpose in life So let the shamrock be your guiding star for the best
