PLAZA 5373 vs MAPLE BLOCK 8: TILE Lmnm SALES 8 SERVICE DURING a recent reception at Toronto's new Radio Station CKFH, the thought occurred to us that if the floor supporting the crowd of 500 or more were to suddenly collapse, the cream of the sporting world would vanish irreplaceably. Newspapermen, sportcasters, promoters, hockey and football players were crowded into one jovial massâ€"honoring Foster Hewitt. ‘Mr. Hockey' shook hands and talked with Major Conn Smythe, Joe Primeau, Ted Reeve, Happy Day, Joe Perlove, Bob Hesketh, Dave Price, Jim Coleman, Frank Tunney, Deacon Allen, Bob McGall, Dr. Harry Griffiths and others too numerous to mention. For several, hours the talk rolled up and down the studiOs and (by actual count) the word ‘sport' was mentioned 3-mil1ion, 223-thousand times. Our best wishes to CKFH (Dial 1400) and to all its merry crew. For Foster and Bill Hewitt :1 dream has come true, while ‘W.A.' looks on approvingly. D.

From their city position these hardy souls com- . mand a sweeping view of their fellow §pectators but the players perform- ing below seem to rotate on the ice like leisurely puppets at play. A body-check delivered by 3. Harry Watson or a Leo Reise, while it seems dynamic and vicious from a seat near the rail, looks like a gentle protest to our friends in heaven. “Aw, step into him,‘ Harry! Don't be afraid of the bum.". echoes through the hall. The Maple Leafs roar to the attack and Ted Kennedy breaks through, going like the wind.’ “Aw, turn on the steam, Teeder! You're practic- ally standing still!", scream these rabid fans, failing to catch the tremendous strain creasing Ken- nedy's face. ‘ In the older days, before Maple Leaf Gardens and the other arenas, hockey was played right under the nose of the spectators. Each intent to murder was clearly seen by the crowdâ€"before the killing took place. The fans were already en- joyinfi the body-check before it actua ly came. This pmanal touch doubled the excitement of the play. Specially prepared by a prominent Canadian sporfl authorin for .

Now- adays, only the few by the rail hear the heartbeats, but the reat, loyal majority (13,000 strong can make up in opinions and catâ€"calls what they miss from the greys and the greens. Undoubtedly teleuijion should revive the ancient drama of hockey by giving us all a close-up view! We're informed that arrangements are practically com- pleted for the 1951 Canadian Sports- men's Show to be held in the Coli- seum, Toronto, March 9 to 17, _ under the auspices of the Toronto Anglers’ and Hunt- ers’ Association in the interests of conservation. Among the highlights of this year's Sportsman's Show will be a. stage and water revue, a conserva- tion show, dog show, boat show, motor show. travel show and an Indian village. In the sports demon- stration area, sports such as golf, tennis. ju'do, badminton, archery, boxing, fencing and so forth will be demonstrated by experts and champions. Again this year the four floors of the Coliseum will house hundreds of commercial exhibits including all the most upâ€"to-date equipment for fishing, hunting, camping. golf, skiing and other sports. Also, ‘Sharkey’; the amazing seal, will star in the big stage and water revue in the arena of the Coliseum, so set aside several evenings for this most unique and worthy show.

C. Porteous, a director of the Ontario Plow- men’s Association, is writing about the visit of Canada’s cham- pion plowmen to the British Is- les, Belgium, Denmark and the Netherlands.

The day was cloudless and we had a wonderful view of the earth below. Two things struck us as most unusual. These were the green fields at this time of year, (there being no snow or frost) and the network of Waterâ€" ways. Denmark is made up of about '500 islands while most of Holland, of course, is reclaimed from the sea. The waterways of Denmark are irregular and from the air they look like rain-fed streams, while those of Holland seem orderly, more like a system of well-laid-out streets. Bhe districts, communities and even the farms in Holland are divided or bounded by these waterways, or canals, and most of the trans. portation is by water. Anothe; iesolution of the local But I’m getting ahead of my- self. I had better fill you in on our' last day in Denmark. We were taken about 2-0 mile north of Copenhagen to see Frederiks- 'borg castle which was built near- 1y 400 years ago and tool 60 years to complete. It is a mass- ive structure with towers and steeples. Formerly it was .he residence of the kings of Den- mark but now is a public mus- eum. It contains so many treas- ures connected with the history of Denmark that we felt it would take a week to see them all. We had lunch at a restaurant overlooking the castle grounds and then returned to Copenhag- en. In the evening we were guests at a dinner in one 01 the city’s famous restaurants â€"- The Viking. Among the guests were Mr. Cornett of the Canadian Le- gation in Denmark whom I men- tioned in my last letter, and Har- ry Home of the Canadian Lega- tion in Norway, who comes from western Canada. The dinner was perfect in every way, as are most things in this country and it was with reluctance left to board the plane sterdam. When we landed at Amster- dam’s airport we were again welcomed 'by a, group of Esso representatives and government officials. In the group was Mr. Small of the Canadian Embassy here. This was another coinci- ience, for his wife lived in Owen Sound a few years ago when her father, Ralph McNeill, was with Out of consideration for requests re- ceived that we minimize interruptions to power because of sump pumps we cut work to that which was of an urgent na- ture.

PORTEOUS * Diredor ONTARIO PLOWMEN’S ASSOCIATION that we for Am- CANADIAN PLOWMEN ABROAD wing calling for representation for former members of the Women’s Division to be increased frbm one to three members on the Dominion Executive Council was also adopt- ed. These resolutions as well as oth- ers calling for better reserve train- ing facilities, refresher courses for Air Force veterans, will be passed to the national association for con- sideration at the national associa- tion’s annual convention to be held at Ottawa, May 18 and 19. Donald W. Murray, who is vice-president of 417, has been named the local Wing’s delegate to that convention with Harry Sayers appointed al- ternate delegate. Delegates, some 40 of them, rep- resenting members of the 30 wings, heard talks by Air Commodore L. E. Wray, commandant of th RCAF Staff College, Armour Heights, Toronto, on air power in Korea, the board of trade there. After we booked in at a hotel we were taken on a tour of the Hague, which is only a few miles from Amsterdam. It is a clean and tidy city and was one of the few large centres to escape com- partively undamagd from the Nazis invasion in 1940. It has many historical buildings includ- ing the Palace of Peace where the Permanent Court of Inter- national Justice presides. This is a handsome building set in the‘ middle of beautifully land- scaped grounds. The next day we were up early and started out from the hotel at 8.30. We went first to visit the co-operative flower auction at Aalsmeer, which I would think, is the largest of its kind in the world. The cut flowers sold there are shipped not only to the con- tinent and the United Kingdom but to the United States and Canada. They are shipped by air and the flowers sold here one morning are in the U. S. and Canada the next day. I might mention that the flowers are brought to the auction by boat for canals run alongside every hothouse and garden. We then went north and had lunch at Hoorn. While there we watched Freisian’ cattle being loaded for shipment to France. The exporting of cattle, which was knocked out by the war, is now pretty Well back in full swing and is important business. Later we visited a farm of 80 ac- cres where 80 head of Holsteins are maintained. While some feed for these cattle is bought outside most of the forage and silage and hay is grown on the arm, we were told. After inspecting the farm we drove north to Leeuwarden to spend the night. In doing so we crossed over an 18-mile dyke which divides Yssel Lake from th North Sea. It is a remark- able piece of engineering. Near this town I called upon the brother of a man who with his family migrated to our farm three years ago. There was much to tell him about how his bro- er has fared in the land of his adoption and much to hear for retelling when I return. But there was an element of sadness in being the mediator between brothers, who as he said, may not see each other again. Perhaps you wonder how we manage to talk with the people in these foreign countries? We have found that if you take your time you can be understood by them and by the same token you can understand them. Nearly all of the people we met in Den- mark and Holland have some knowledge of English, but it makes one wonder if some day there could not be an internat- ional language. This is a thought I’ll leave with you until the next letter which will come from Belâ€" gium. New Lights,Hangers Are To Be Installed For Pupils, Visitors Delighted with the success of their experiment in providing betâ€" ter lighting for the old classrooms in the Public School, trustees have decided to equip all six of them with fluorescent lighting. They have long teen dissatis- fied with the quality and volume of the light in those rooms. Num- erous tests have disclosed it to be considerably below standard. As reported sbme little while ago they experimented with new lights in one room after it had been asâ€" certained that the cost of a new wiring system would be prohibitive. At their meeting on March 1 trustees awarded a contract for the installation of new lights in all old rooms to Richmond Hill Elec- tric, total cost to be $1,650. As the original estimate for re-wiring was $5,690 approximately $4,000 has been saved as the result of the ex- periment. The new lights are to 'be installed in the additional five rooms as quickly as possible. For the convenience of organiza- tions using the school for meetings trustees also decided-«to install bars in the boys’ and girls' cloakrooms on Which hangers to hold coats could be hung. The move, ‘lt was decided, would add to the comfort of those using the auditorium and would also do away with the nec- essity of using classrooms as cloak- rooms. There are about 1,000 chemical plants in operation in Canada and the industry employs about 44,000 people. More than 1,000 are among the approximately 28,500 Canadians who participate in. target or 9the1: types of or; rifle shooting.
