For Heavyweight Honors Against Walcott Tonight

' By MURRAY BOSE

NIIW YORK. Nov. 23 - (AP) - Rex Layne. a stoiit-hearted 22-year- old froxn Utah. Will attempt to vault smack into the heavyweight contention tomorrow night when he tangles with crafty, so-year-old Jeney Joe Walcott at Madison square Garden.

On the surface. it looks like the mismatch of the year. But the stocky. army veteran's calm ap- proach to this scrap. the most im- portant of his career, has knocked the price down from 10 to i to 4 to J and by fight ti.ine. it may be 3 to I. Walcott. seeking a fourth crack at the world title. appears to be too smart. experienced and too hard It puncher for Layne who has been fighting pro only since May of '49.

In that time. the handsome. curly- Ii-aired wesierner has lost but once in 28 fights. I-le avenged that de- feat to Dan: Whitlock and has scored victories over the best heav- ies on the west coast. including Joe Kahut, Grant Butcher and 'mi-key Tiioonpscn.iI-Ie has it) kayos to his credit. In his last two fights he draw with Dale Hall and Andy Walker. I-Ie blames lack of condi- tion for the deadlocks. .

"I'm ready for Walcott, and I think I can beat him." said the con- fident youngster.

Mcst experts who have watched him wori? out believe his style is made to order for the veteran Cam- ticn. N.J.. boxing master. Others. however, believe Walcott is ready in be taken. They point to Wal- cottls age and his 20 years of fight- XIIK.

Canadian Football Hall Of Fame Seen Possibility

By Jiurg liuliivan Caii:id:an Press Staff Writer A Canadian Football Hall of

Fame. a permanent shrine to hon- or the :lI1m0ri3LS of the gridirc'.i and officials associated with its dcvelopnicnt, may become a real- ity in l95l.

Football officials, queried by the Canadian Press on their views about formation of such a mem- orial. generally favored the idea.

"It is a wonderful idea and it would be an honor and a tribute io the great players of the game and to the people who have fost- ered it through the years," Eric Cradock of Toronto. president of the Intcrprovimial Union. said.

Cradock added he would recom- mend formation of the Hall of Fame to the Canadian Rugby Urilon board of governors at the C. R. U. annual meeting next February. "Football has -developed in Pobularity at ii. tremendous rate and I'm sure every official in the country would go for such an idea." he added.

"It's a good thing." C. R. U. president Tom Alison of Toronto said. I'm in favor of the idea. The Hall of Fame probably would be -similar to that set up by hockey (at Kingston. Ont.) and baseball (It Cooperstown. N. Y.)."

Harold Bailey of Toronto. vet- eran secretary of the Ontario Rugby Football Union, told CP it was a "great idea."

"This thing could be built up tremendously." he said. "There are ei great many things to be done. It would take time to figure out. and I would be happy to help in its formation."

Jim Mccaffrey. manager of ot- tawe. Rough Riders of the Big :Pour. said he had never given the idea of in Hall of Fame much thought "but I believe it would be a good thing if it had the right guidance.”

"One thing. there are enough experienced officials in Canada with probably enough enthusiasm to make it a success."

"A grand idea." said Lew Hay- man. coach of Montreal Alouettes of the Big Four. "It is natural that the idea of a Hall of Fame would find wide acceptance and would do a great deal for sport." I-layman said it was "ihe first" he had heard of the "Hall of Fame idea" but added that he was "agreeable in principle with it..." "It would be a great thing if it is on a good. sound basis. Foot- ball today is the most rapidly- growing sport in Canada..." Mocsffrey and l-layman will ai- tend the Ross Trix-rible Memorial dinner at Toronto Friday night. the eve of the Grey Cup. and both said they would talk it over with

bR.r:ugh Riders from

other club officials it is expelcrl more than 700 officials and play- ers fnzii nearly every section of the country - many possible can- dldates for a Hall of Fame-will attend the dinner.

Trimble. who (oaclied Ottawa 1936 to 1943 and played for Toronto Balmy Beach cf the Ontario Rugby Foot- ball Union in the late '20s. died suddenly at his Toronto home last March.

THE GUARDIAN. CH ARL()TTET()WN

NOVEMBER 24, 1950

It was close going for the Is- landers here on Wednesday night

when ihey shaded Saint John Bcavcrs by one goal to lake their 17th victory in 23 starts in Mari- time Senior Hockey League play this season and their third in four staris under coach Lco,Lamoureux. Coming from behind an early first psriod goal by Beavers. the Is- landers struck back in their tradi- tional form to run the count to 2-1 before the period ended. Playing to a scorclcs second period. both squads shot a brace of goals each in the final chapter. 0 . .

Although the Islanders hold a 4-2 irizirgin over their rivals dur-

ii. was any('.)ody's battle right to the final whistle. Nick Nlcollc-'s goal at 15:41! of the third frame li;id Bcai gunning really hard in me closing minutes of play for the equalizer and came too close for comfort in doing it before tit gong coded the game. Islanders had some hectic moments wlii-I coach Lcs '!:'"s'iy pullcd out goalie Dennis Brodciir in the clos- in; stagrs to put six forwards at work in a dcspciiziic attempt. Close defensive Iciiuii by the entire lo- cal sq-iiaci foiled the attempt how- ever.

There were a niinibcr of players

their pclrforniance in Wednesday .nigi'.4.'s gamc. Manny Mclntyre came up with an exceptionally fine performance for Beavers. Assist- ing lcammates Whiliock and Ni- colic on two goals. Mclntyrc prov- ed himsclf an all-purpose player. He performed on two different for- ward line combinations for the short-handed Beavers. and took a trick back on defence as well. turning in aggressive performances in al-l departments. Tommy Bren- nan also came up with a solid piece of play-making with line- mates Vic Jackson and Paul Plaiz, while Jack Hcon was a particu- larly staunch member of the Boa- ver bluoline department. . . .

Playing for the Islanders but working like the well known "Bea- ver" Bucko Trainer. Red Favaro and Walter Pawlynshyn came up with smart teamwork and passing. and alihouigh experiencing some tough breaks in around the oppos- ing net, were a going concern all night. Huib Beauriry, Mac Beaton and Marcel Clcmcnts also came up with better-than-usual perform- ances: while not hitting their cus- tomary goal-getting tactics. broth- ers Johnny and Danny I-Iorcck bored right into ihe thick of it at all times to account for one tally.

- . .

But it was left to two Island de- fcncemen to really turn it on in the way of effective playing. Geoiiee McLagan and Johnny Du- chakl were the pick of ihe night. Proving a. lower of strength on the defensive the two husky rear- guards were worth their weight in gold. Checking and clearing well P5PS'lSiCl'l'lly. bcntli boys kept their forward scciions hum-ping all night with wcll dirccied passups. Fol- lowing up on the play during ganiginig attacks they figured prom- inently in the scoring as well. Mc- Logan led the goal-geiiiing honors by sniping two. Duchak assisting on one of them. Their goal at 9:18 of the third period was an all- defcnccmnn effort. something that doesn't crop up in a game very often.

There has been a lot of rumor of late concerning ihe folding up of the Cape Breton hockey circuit. and the possibility of at least two of the three existing teams in that league scekinig entry into the Big Four. It is not all based on just idle rumor either. President Vic- tor Oland of the Halifax Saint Mary's Club. has already admitted that talks have been going on for a couple of weeks now between his cliilb and teams of the C. B. S. H. L. These recent talks have been by no means the first either along such lines. Both leagues have been toying with the idea of amalgamat- ing the two Maritime circuits for I year or more now.

0 C C

These talks have always seemed to bog down before any decision had been reached. But the pre- sent situation has I slightly dif- ferent keynote. Both leagues were more or less operaiiiu on a suc- cenful plane during previous ielkl concerning joining the two Leagues undertone heading. Now the Cape Breton division seems to be having their hands forced a bit. The com- petition this year seems in be slightly lopsided and as I result attendance: have been falling off to such an extent that the ritu- stion appears critical for existing clubs.

There is no doubt that the ad- dltion of Sydney Millionaires and poutbly one other team from that circuit to' the Big Four would

Fnllowiiit! the Chairman's rc- marks. reports were heard from the secretary. Mrs. J, 0. C. Camo- bell. Dr. Gilbert Houston, who headed this year's Field Dog Trials. and Mrs. William Brehaut. Field Trials secretary.

Mr. F. A. S. Jones also iztive an interesting account of the field irials themselves and called at- tention (nth? nuistanding achieve- ment of Mr. Ollie Harper in carry- ing off two leading awards with h-is Pointer entries against stiff outside competition. He also spo'-:e

of the fine work done by the judges during those trials and made special mention of Mr.

Propose Spring Dog Show

One of the chief proposals at the rneetin-g was the suiggesiion of holding a Bench Show in the 5l?FiDZ.of next year. and after wide discussion on the matter a motion was adopted "to hold a Sprllig Dog Show if it is at all possible." It will be the duty of the new executive to look into ihc matter and rcrport their find- ings.

A number of views were ex- pressed on the matter and it was proposed by Mrs. Brehaut that consideration should be given to having one of the local Service Cluibs sponsor the show. She stat- ed ilhat it had been carried out successfully at Halifax and thought 13 might be tried here. Other speakers on the subject were Messrs. 3. Graham Rogers. Char- les Scranton andDr. Houston. who all expressed their belief that with increased mem'bers'hiIp and inter- est they should be able to sponsor the show and were not in fa-

Suggesis College Hoop league

ANTIGONISH, N. S., Nov. 23- (CP)-Forniation of a Maritime Intercollegiate Basketball League was advocated here tonight by lf9l'- W- P- Foznrty. coach of St. Francis Xavier basketball team. Maritime intercollegiate champs.

Mn FOSIINY said he plans to bring the matter before the Mari- time Intercollegiate Union in De- ccmber because of a lack of com.

Deiition. particularly in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.

He suggested a league includ- ing Acadia. Dalhousie. N. S. Tech. nlcal College and St. F. X, from NW8 500118: Mount Allison and U.N.B. from N. B.. and with s:. Dunston's from P.E.I.

make it a terrific set-up as far as competition in the Maritime: is concerned. It would make it a pos- sible six-team league that would promise much to fandom in the way of top-notch hockey. But there are many factors to be considered, and one of the biggest of these is additional. travelling expenges, If such a thing should happen in the current season, there is also lhe bill Problem of what in do with the present schedule. Either I new one would have to be let up. (that would have to be done in any one with added team: in the 19II'ue) and the games played to date put down in "experience." 0 O O

Other sylteml concerning the schedule could be worked out how- ever-u one local hockey fan pointed out yesterday. They could strike an average of games won and lost by the Big Four teams to date and allow the added teams that average. or net the new teams below the cellar teem. Whether such reasoning would be applicable and agree- able in herd 'to say. and would have to be decided by the league and club executives in any one. All these things are worth think- ing about though. and if anything is going to be done this year, it should be done soon. before the noun prognoses too far.

vor of such sponsorship outside the cluib itself. Mr. Scranton said that many visiting siporismen dur- ing the field trials here expressed their desire to see a Spring show held here. but that having a com- petent and cxipcrienccd judge was a necessity. He also suggested that it should be held on a holiday or week-end.

Hon. F. A. Large. Minister of Education. was also a guest speak- er and in a brief talk expressed interest in the Kennel Club on be- half of both he and his wife and hoped they would be able to take a greater interest in the future.

A special motion was p thanking the farmers of the Har- rington and Winsloe areas for their fine co-operation and use of their lands during the holding of the Field Trials and also to the ladies of those areas for their kindness in supplying refreshments to those taking part in the trials. A vole of thanks was also tendered to the press and radio for their interest and publicity in helping to pro- mote the program.
