Glamour Needed To Boost Track And Fleid Standards

, By BOB TRIMBEE Canadian Press Staff Writer WINNIEPEIG (CP) What's

needed to boost Canadian ath- letes into the international sports

spotlight, to greater power .in Olympic and British Empire gamesu

E. K. (Ken) Yost of Winnipeg, secretary of the Amateur Ath- letic Union of Canada, says its money, better coach-es and pos- sibly a couple of Roger Bannis-

' ters or Bobby Morrov’vs to give

amateur sports a bit of glamor.

“Money is the main worry, es- pecially now when amateur sports are making a strong comeback in public interest across the coun- try," he said. “With sutftcient funds most other problems can be licked.

GOVERNMENT AID

“It must come from our gov- ernments, federal, provincial and municipal. We can’t begin to ex- pect individuals or business firms to carry the load.

“Without government support it will be a long time before Oah- ada cracks the international bar- rier to any extent," he said in an “Even with their squ-

' portwe would have to work to

beanysontofthreatatthe1964 Olympics." I

Yost estimated the fiederal cost at $100,000 annually to operate the national portion of the program. This would include a director and assistant to Ibo-ordinateall activ- ities, and a director and assistant for each of the seven branches- water sports, track and field, box- ing, fencing, “nestling, cycling and

INTERNATIONAL ANGLE

The program would open the way for top international coaches to come to Canada and conduct extensive training programs and

non.

Yost, track and field coach of the 1948 Olympic team, said:

“We can’t kid anyone. Canada hasn’t had a topaflight coach in more than 30 years. Like myself, most Canadian coaches are en- forced coaches, men who take the

job to help‘ out because they love —

sports.

“These men can't begin to match coaches from other coun- tries at the Olympic or British Empire games.

“What we need is a world champion to bring glamor to our sports and whip up enthusiasm among competitors and fans.” STEP FORWARD

The Canadian Legion sports training plan and coaching clinic at Toronto, Aug. 21-30, is a step toward that goal, he said.

The legion has agreed to under- write the cost of bringing the top 10 athletes from each province to Toronto, give them a week’s training 11 nd er internationally- famous coaches and then stage a track and field meet.

Mac Murray, national AAU

publicity chairman, said lack of-

interest on the national level has impeded the progress of amateur sports in cant-Ida.

“Local interest is good, but once an athleteleaves high school he or she drops from the public scene," he said. ,

“Their exploits are often good copy infother countries, but not

in Canada. It usually takes an Olympic or B.E.G. medal to even break the barrier at home. “One answer is more national pride in our athletes such as is given football stars.

“It’s a long hard grind to inter- "national victories. [It’s dull be- cause the method is usually quite elementary, work and more work. Moral support is a must."

ExpectTo Move Sons Of Freedom

OTTAWA (OH—Announcement is expected later this week of a federal government a g r e e ment with British Columbia to share costs of sending the long-trouble- some Sons of Freedom Donk- hoors back to Russia.

Justice Minister Fulton told a reporter be mailed a “revised proposal” to 3.0. Attorney-Ge -

oral Robert Bonner Monday on the situation. . "He declined to make pu-bhc what the agreement will be, but it was learned that the two gov- ernments will split costs of send- ing the Sons to Russia.

It is understood that one fed-

eral condition attached to such fi- nancial assistance to the Donk- hobor sect would be Freedomite agreement to relinquish all rights of Canadian citizenship. I

This would ensure that they dld not return to Canada.
