For the past ten years the amaz- mg Williams, who has become known as Mr. A. P. C. Leilll-10. 1185 burnt up the Nova Scotia Senior circuit with his goal scoring prow- ass. During tlrat time he has plyed his trade for Pictou where he now lives and it is quite appropriate that Pictnu fans have decided to honor him in such an outstanding manner.
Complete figures of the- num- ber of goals Williams has scored throughout his hockey career are not available but a Williams ad- mirer in Pictou has come up with the information that the "Ticker" has scored 438 times since he came

Wherever he has played Wil- liams has left him behind him a legend of stories concerning his hockey ability. He played for a year with Timmins in the North- ern ontario League and they still talk about Williams in that area. Gus Gustaveson, the Islanders big dcfenseman. was only a boy at the time but the scoring feats of Wil- liams are still outstanding in the mind of big Gus who watched many of the N. 0. H. A. games.
In Halifax they still recall the night in 1940 that the Sydney Mil- lionaires benched Williams during a Maritime senior play-off game because he was scoring too mauiy

only such distinction in hockey.
In Cape Breton they remember the night that the Sydney Million- aires attempted to "get" Williams. It was 1941 and Tic was playing with North Sydney in the play- offs against the strongest Sydney team on record. "All that Williams did was skate through the Sydney team from the face-off to score the opening goal. When the teams face-off again he repeated the performance.
Tic broke into hockey fame with the Junior Abbles back in 1934. The Abbles won the Maritime Championship and the Eastern Canadian Championship before being defeated in the finals by the powerful Saint Michael's Junior. The Saint Mike's team of that year had numerous stars on its lineup many of whom went into the N. ll. L. the following season.
The Abbies won' the Maritime title without too much difficulty and walloped the Quebec Junior Champions. the Mount Royal Cranes in a two games series here. In the final game the Abbies were victorious by an 8-1 score. one of the players on the Quebec team was Buddy O'Connor.
The next year Tie along with a group of local players. played in Denver. Odorado where Williams proceeded to win the League scor- ing title. Professional scouts were hot on Williams trail and Tie was given the opportunity of turning pro with Kansas City but he do- clined the offer.
The next year Tic split his time between Hershey and Baltimore of Eastern Amateur League and the following season he played with Reserve in Nova Scotia. Then fol- lowed a year with Sydney and a season with North Sydney after which he played in the N. O. H. A. League. The next year he joined the A. P. C. League and has play- ed with Pictou Maripacs since then. p
when he played in Sydney Tic was a team-mate of Johnny Mc- Cready who later went on to play with the Toronto Maple Leafs. One night on a radio show Mwready was asked who was the greatest player he ever saw and the N.H.L. forward replied Williams. At the time Mccready was a team-mate of syl Apps, one of the finest play- makers in the history off the game.
But it wasn't only in hockey that Williams excelled. Wednesday night "Had" Maclnnis estimated that Tic had-more natural athletic abil- ity than any other athlete the Island ever produced and that takes in a. lot of ground.
wlliiams was outstanding in track and field events. He could do eleven feet in the pole vault and was a. good one hundred yard man. For a number of years he was top point winner at the Caled- onia Meete in Cape Breton. He was also a star baseball player.
Hockey fans throughout the Maritlmes will appreciate the ef-, forts of the Pictou Maripacs hoc. key Qxecutive and the people of Pictou in honoring this great nth. late with a "Night". They started with the objective of presenting Williams with an automobile and the cash along with numeroug articles of clothing has been roll. ing into the members of the exec- utive. The matter of contributions is being handled by Bobby Beaten, Harry Trainer and Nannie Morgan of Pictou.

Premier J. Walter Jones express- ad concem at the attempts being made in some quarters of the Maritime Provinces to replace the traditiornai English ruzby game with Canadian football during a public noon at which the Provincial Gov- ernment honored the saint Dun- stn.n.'s Maritime senior ind inter- collegiate rugby Cha.m'plonS
The members of the Saint Dun- sta.n's team, their coaches A. J. McAdam and John Eldon Green were presented with suitable mo- mentoee from the Provincial Div- ision of Physical Fitness during the ceremony which tool; place in the Confederation Chambers.
Speaking of the attempts in the Mnritimes to replace rugby with Upper Canadian football Premier Jones stated "I have been follow- ing thtis trend for some time and 1 am somewhat concerned about

"In my opinion this would be a very unwise development and would ultimately mean the ruination of football in the Mvanitimes,” he con- tinued. "The Canadian game is more expensive; it requires very expensive equipment and highly trained and expensive coaches."
He added that the smaller cen- ters, the colleges and the high schools in the Maritlmes have not got the money to support the Up- per Canadian game and that in no time the game of football would be played only in the large cen- tres like Halifax. The Premier stated the efforts to bring Canadi- an football to the Maritimes is centered in Halifax.
Premier.loncs classined the Can- adian game as a spectator sport which "smacked of professional- ism". "Those who are attempting to bring it here are not thinking of the good of the Manitimes as a whole but only of one or two areas of concentrated populations which could support the game,"he stated.
Comparing the two games from his years as a standout Player 0! both, the Premier stated: "Rugby is by far the better game. It re- quires more of the players them- selves and less of the coaches. The players must think quickly as the play develops an the field. There is no pattern of play prepared for them. Like no other game it de- velops a team spirit of good fel- lowship that will stay with the player and will affect his behavior all through life.”
Premier Jones urged the players to support the English rugby tune as the traditional game of the Maritimes and as the only Klimt economically possible throughout the provinces.
Mr. R. R. Bell, Leader of the opposition. supported the Prem- ierts stand on English rugby and urged that efforts be made to have it re-established in the High Schools of the Province.
Clair Callaghan, captain of the saint Dunstan! team thanked the Government officials and the Physical Fitness Department on behalf of his team-mates for the presentations.
