The only question is. will he be able to marshal all his forces on the ' ' said Friday ‘ Vital nlght.” (‘us night in an inter\'iew aboard the Cunard liner Sylvania on the. way to New York from England, "Most important of all is that Patterson has intelligent. mind. Not that l'm disparaging Liston. he is intelligent too --but he has tended to concentrate on his fist power rarher than his brains.‘ D’Amato was in England as a self - appointed crusader to boost the waning popularity of boxing.

His ex: nerienres at that time weren't a bit funny. but he now gets “a l he " when he mulls things over. Preston was manager of the Toronto East, York club that lost 7-2 to Russia in the world ama- teur hockey tournament that year. The Flast Yorkers also surrendered the title to the So— \‘IF‘IS. it, was the last time the cham— pionships were played in Stock- holm until this year and Pres- ton reads everything he can get his hands on about the pres- ent tournament in the Swedish capital. “Now, when I read what the Swedish newspapers are saying. about the Trail Smoke Eaters. and what they've said since 1954 about Canadian teams even on exhibition tours. the only thing I can say is that we've got to expect it. it‘s all a re- petition ‘of they said about us in 1954." Preston. a Toronto business- man. talked it over in an inter- view the other day after the Stockholm 5 c a n d al sheets smeared Canadian player Russ Kowalchuk and the Smoke Eat- ers. "You know." he said. "we gave the Swedes a real good beating in 1954. We knocked them over 8-0 and they threw snowballs and ice at us and spit on us. “Then they figured we were the only team that could beat the Russians and the newspa- pers gave us a going-over. Any- thing the Russians said or dld was wonderful. It was just. the oppsite with us. They whipped up animosity against. us." After the Canada-Russia final game of the tournament, one Stockholm newspaper fired a last blast at. the Canadians un: der 3 banner headline that read "Why Canadians are Unpopu- lar Here" IT’S THUMB LICKIN’ GOOD Wits! 2-5" IPIECEE lam 3 to 5 ~_——— I DINING ROOM SPECIAL N French Fries fl Slow and 1 .50 ...auf~paces : _ -va‘ Has them "Irritation has been caused firstly by their boastful attitude and secondly by all the lies which unsuspecting S we d l s 21 journalists have fallen for, to an amazing extent," the story said.
