It‘s not the last goal he plans to score, he said. The sixâ€"foot, 180â€"pounderâ€"will conâ€" tinue his education and his sports career when he leaves for England and Europe in September. After graduating from George Harvey secondary school, Mr. Campbell worked at a gas station, then went to California, and got a job in a cireus. Then he decided to come back, and hitchâ€"hiked all the way. Here in Toronto he met Glenn Beden, who conâ€" vinced him to play hockey for the university and further his education. He did both well; making the Dean‘s List, and building a reputation as a dependable defenseman. Mr. Campbell, son of Mr. & Mrs. Charles Campbell of Rutherford Ave., Weston, has completed his college education, and plans to continue with hockey.

Controller Wes Boddington menâ€" tioned that there are all sorts of applications from people who live in York. If the city of Toronâ€" to had 300 applications from peoâ€" ple living in the city they would hire them from the city.
