Sports Forum

NORTIIUMBERLAND MARATHON

Sir,-It appears to many think- ing people, with the best interests at P. E. Island at heart, that next rutnmer would be the time. and Northumberland Strait the place to stage, a super-feature event. which would sclntillate so bright- ly that it would focus the atten- tion of the world on the Mari- time Provinces - and P. E. Is- land in particular.

An nnen-to-the world swimming competition on the "tide rip" of the nine miles of Northumberland S'..ralt from Cape Tormentivve, N. P., to Port Borden in P. E Is- l.1nrI could scarcely fall to do just that.

That it is easily negotiable. has been proved by the feat of Miss Yvelyn Henry, a comparatively rant: amateur - last summer.

"Observer" in the Guardian ob- serves that the Mtaritlmcs are scarcely known to the common people of the world at larire. Mun" places are immortalized by "pets and bards-for example. "Killer- ney". "Bonny Dundee" "Okla- homa" and dozens of others of the same ilk-all lively and rollicking stirs which are very fetching. our "uoetic souls" can't seem to get. the proper inspiration - not yet anyhow. It behooves our poets and poetosses to write something niih verve and vitality - not sad rnd nostalgic.

We must. cater to the respectable middle class tourists for some time yet. After they stampede here In ever increasing numbers each year the plutnrrats will begin to take Loticel We are not nrepared yet

some of them being not "to the manner born are perickety and ar- rogant." There would be no bet- ter media of advertising for, the Maritime Provinces than that which could be given by the snort writers on the daily and weoklv newspapers of the Atlantic sea- board. The Upper Canadian and Midwestem papers would follow. It is quite pouible that both Nova Scotla and New Brunswick will feel constrained to no in "ca- hoots" with the Island In the pro- posed marathon. They both have nntny beautv spots and places oi erect historical interest. Many of the spectators from foreign parts will want to travel in the pro- v.nces before returning from the ';.ig event. Hundreds of mgr boats will be available to c 1' spectators who wish to watch the progress of the race -- for a small

fee

The name "Northumberlanrl" in a fine euphonio one - with all due respect to Mr. shskesneare there is something in a name. "Northumberland" conjures up historic legends of Vikings, Norse- msn and'Danes -' those intrepid explorers and conquerors of the early centuries of the Christian era - the progeny of whom help- ed to make England's archery un- beatable on the continent of Eu- rope. Our "Northumberlsnd" has it fair claim to a niche in the!-fall of Fame. It was the testing ground for the first undersea telegraph cable--about the year 1850. The mat Atlantic cable was laid short- ly afterwards. If memory serves rightfully it was also the testing lace for the first underwater telephone - considerably latqr. There shouldn't be a his amount of "detail" work .- selecting a date and starting time, will re- quire some calculation - in order to take advantage of the flood on ebb tides. Those are matters for later consideration. Anyway we have gPhysicaI Fitness and Pub- ticlty ureau here thoroughly cap- able of nupervisina ' Wmao ti of this magnitude. and no ubt athletic sport promoters and direc- tors of swimming clubs on the mninland will be willing and eager to help.

3-Ntmitted To Canadian A.A.ll. Hall Of Fame

MONTREAL. Jan. 13 - (Ct?)- Three oarsmen-the late Lou Scholes, Joe Wright, Jr.. and Jack Guest, Sr.. all of Toronto, were, admitted Saturday to the Cana- dian Amateur Athletic Union Hall of Fame.

Also admitted was a speed- skater, the late Charles 1. Gor- man of Saint John. N. 3.. whose name was submitted by the Can- adian Speed Skating Association.

The other three. all ormcr win- nets of the Diamond uils, were submitted by the Canadian Am- ateur Oats-men's Association.

Gorman won world champion- ships in 1924 and 19W and had other titles to his credit.

The Oarsmen's Associaiiloh also submitted the names of the late Edward (Ned) Hanlon of Toronto, the late Joe Wright, Sr.. of To- ronto and Bob Pearce, former Australian, now of Ottawa. All were famous scullers but detail- ed information was asked. and Pearce's position as I non-native of Canada will be considered further.

The oarsmen also nominated the Canadian four-oared crew which won at the Royal Henley Regatta in 1910: Frank Carruth- ers, Charles Allan, Gerald Aldous and Conrad Riley. This nomin- ation also was sent back for more information.

The Canadian Boxing Associa- tion recommended Eugene Bros- seau of Montreal. who won Cana- dian. American and North Am- erican titles as a welterweight. Action was withheld pending in- formation whether any other box- ers may be considered along with Brosseau. ,

The Quebec Amateur Wrestling Association recommended Dick Stockton of resented Canada at three Olym- pics-19124, 1928 and 1932. He fin- ished iourth in 1924 and second in 1-323. He also held six Dominion clia-mpionships and at least half a. dozen provincial championships. Action was withheld pending recommendation from the national wrestling body.

years .- by concentrating for b. few minutes. and' by calling up their Divitie afflatus to put their thoughts into words for their pap- ers. It will be a great boast for the manly art of swimming. This effusion is quite long already - if the proposal meets with favor from the Maritime press and neighborly news we can go ahead from there.

our GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN

Sweden May

(By Alan Harvey) LONDON, Jan. 13-(CP)-Can-

ladlans just back from fl Scandin-

avian tour said Wednesday Sweden may spring a big surprise in next month's Olympic hockey champ- ionships-if the Swe es can shake 'off their inferior ty com-

plox.

Bob Glddens, Canadian editor

of an American-British hockey publication, said the Swedes are fast skaters and exceptionally deft passers, but lack the "killer instinct” around the net. "It seems to he an inferiority complex." said Giddens. editor of Ice Hockey World. "They appar- ently ihink Canadian clubs are too good for them."

Keith (Duke) Campbell, 42- ycnr-old coach of Earl's Court Rangers. Canadian-staffed team from the English National Lea- gue. agreed that Sweden's weak spot is in finishing off plays in the enemy zone.

Campbell and Glddens returned last Saturday after accompanying Rangers on an exhibition tour in Sweden and Norway. The visitors won five of the six contests but had a lower goul average than their opponents in three games against Sweden's national team.

Campbell said every Swedish player seems to have an uncanny ability to get his stick on flying pucks. The Swedes are skilled in bnndy, a game played 'wlth n curved stick, which probably ac- counts for it.

Giddens, formerly of Ottawa. predicted that when Sweden and Edmonton Mercurys meet in tho; Olympics there will be an inter- esting clash in styles-between the Canadian brand of modern, "pressurized" hockey and Swed- en's pattern passing plays. remin- iscent of Canadian hockey 15 years ago.

"They toss the puck around as though it were on a yo-yo string," said Gidricns.

Louis Still Wont-' Say He's Through

LONG BEACH, Calif, an. 13 -(AP) -- Joe Louis is through boxing. but isn't ready to say so officially.

That was the gist of an inter- view Thursday night when the former heavyweight champion turned up here to referee a wrest- ling match. '

Joe said the "authentic an- nouncement" of his retirement will be made when he returns to New York next month. But to a question: "You're not going to fight again. are you?" Joe grunted "no...

That made it practically un- animous, since several states have indicated they wouldn't give him

to La Prairie. Que.

permission anyway.

Spring Big

. Hockey Meet Surprise

Some Canadian observers feel Scwden may pull off one of the surprises of Olympic history in the Oslo competition scheduled for mid-February. The Swedes themselves pick Czechoslovakia as the team to beat. Long one of Canada's dangerous rivals in in- ternational play. the Iron Cur- lain country comes back after a

two-year absence with a fast. young team. The Czechs once were coached

by Mike Bucknn of Trail, B. C. He went back to Canada when the Iron Curtain came clanking (town but railbirds say the 1951- 52 team still shows signs of Bucknu's coaching.

Mcrcurys, now in Scotland, ar- rive here next week for in game against Streatham prior to em- barking for the continent. Streat- ham now leads the English Lea- gue. with Earls Court Rangers in second place.

Minoileague Hockey Games

Close to two dozen paperweight, pct:-wee and bantam hockey teams went through their paces at the Forum on Saturday night in the minor .league hockey program con- ducted by the Department of Phys- ical Fitness.

The first paperweight game saw the Rcdwings defeating the Spring- ers with Ralph Beaton scoring for the Redwings. Bobby Lamourcux on a pass from S. Connolly counted for the Ramblers and the goal r.!CVEd to be the winner as the Ramblers downed the Bluebirds 1-0.

C. MacMlllan scored twice in the Btuins 2-0 victory over the Hawks. The Falcons defeated the Tigers 2-1 with Giggey scoring twice for the Falcons and Tredennlclc for the Tigers. The Rangers and the Cubs played to a scoreless draw.

In a girls' game, the West Kent Girls and the Parkdale Girls fought to a 3-3 tie.

In the Pee-Wees the Royals ('.owned the Rangers 3-1. Gregory Buchanan and Seaman scored for the Royals and W. MacDonald for the Rangers. The Hornets shut-out the Spitfires 3-0 with Warren. Johnston and Harper scoring for the Hornets. The Bulldogs and lBmves played to a 1-1 tie, 13. Allen ,s:oring for the Bulldogs and Cum- miskey for the Braves.
