DRIVE :1 Repairs It looks as if “Tiger” Alex Jensen, the Swedish Bombshell, is at it again. Tuesday night at the Farmers’ Market in Thorn- hill he used his dreaded Cobra hold on Little Beaver, the hith- erto unbeaten Indian wrestler, and nearly put him out for good. Doctor Rushed To The Aid Of Little Beaver So serious was his condition that Dr. Wynne, Richmond Hill physician. was rushed to the In- dian Grappler's aid. There is no doubt that the Beaver was the victim of one of the rings cruelâ€" _est grapplers. Jensen did lose one fall to the redskin but suc- cessfully hammered out a win. The fans were in an uproar over the brutal tactics employed by Jensen, who merely said, and we Victim Of Cobra Hold Ihfigorts Clinc Midget Wrestlers Feature Next Tuesday’s Match Midget wrestlers have been a feature of the fights at Maple Leaf Gardens for some time. but to date no such show has been sponsored for the local fans. This Tuesday, May 31, however, the midgets will hold forth at the Thornhill Market, for the enter- tainment of grappling fans. Big Inch, who tips the scales at 102 pounds and hails from Dallas Texas and Tommy Tuck- er, who is a monster at 200 lbs. If you are a jumper or sprinter make sure you av- oid running or jumping on hard pavement or ground. By doing a lot of running on very hard surfaces you will take much of the bounce out of your lower leg muscles. Do your running or jumping on grassy ground, a cinder track or fairly soft ground. Be very careful to run or jump on even ground because if you get on uneven ground it is very easy to pull a muscle; an injury that can bother you all year. So, stay off hard ground or pavement and train on level ground. BEFORE-GAME SICKNESS Before-game sickness is caused by nervous ten- sion. A little of this is nothing to worry about. It simply means that your glands are making your body ready for action by pouring out a discharge that will increase your physical efficiency. However, too much of it or too much thought given to it are not good things. Remember, if you control it, it is your friend; if you let it run wild, it can do you harm. When you look across at your opponent with your stomach doing tricks, re- member that he is probably feeling exactly the same. Few hockey players realize just how much they can improve their hockey skill by playing games during the off-season which complement hockey. One of the best off-season activities for any hockey player interested is track and field, especially the shdrt sprints and broad jump. These events develop terrific leg drive. The sprints develop condition and stamina (particularly the half mile and mile). Richmond Hill, Other good games for a hockey player are tennis, soccer and lacrosse. If you are a goalkeeper, you should play lots of table tennis; badminton and hand- ball. To replenish your energy and to have pep left for homework, the big date or any other activity after a hard Workout, be sure to rebuild your energy reserve by including a large glass or orange juice, sweetened with honey or a fruit salad sweetened with honey in your after-activity meal. OFF SEASON SPORTS 'FOR HOCKEY'PLAYERS AN EARLY SEASON TRACK TIP An Official Department of Sports College Conducted by Lloyd Percival AFTER EFFORT quote, “I don‘t fool around in there, and it‘s every man for himself in the ring. The Indian just didn’t have it.” Dr. Wynne allowed The Chief to go home after he brought him around, but he was not allowed to drive by himself. The first thing the Indian said was “I want a rematch,” but the fans are afraid he will be in no shape t9 wrestle anybody except a very small boy for a few weeks. In the other bouts Bennedetto Lima took the measure of Joe Greenfield. Harold Van Dyke took a real rouser from Bobby Davies and Chivo Ward loét a tough one to Jimmie Hopkins. and is a very tall gent indeed â€" all 55 inches of him â€" will per- form. These two provide the maximum in action as they scoot around the ring on their tiny legs and look like sorfiething out of Grimms Fairy Tales. Tommy Tucker, the smaller of the two, is a very bad tempered fellow and seems to get into trouble with the referees where- ver he goes. Ronnie Leonard has been appointed special ref- eree for this night and Big Inch says, “Man that referee had bet- ter not get in our way.” Because of the smallness of the ring at Thornhill, the fans should real- ly get plenty of action when these two mighty mites come to grips next Tuesday. Outstanding Card An outstanding card has been linde up for this evening’s fun with Chief Little Beaver clash- ing with Benedetto Lima, the Italian champion. This, match will be two out of three falls and should provide lots of action. The Semi-Final will have special local interest as that up and com- ing young heavyweight star Joe Greenfield will attempt to take the measure of Alex Jensen, that very tough Swedish wrestler. There will also be a team match to make the cheese more bind- ing, with Chivo Ward, the Lang- stafi Billy Goat, teaming up with Jack Flicker. rugged Aurora grappler. These two will op- pose Billy Foster. Brampton La- crosse star. and that flashy little middleweight, Bobby Davies. In the other bout carded.

AT NO. 7 HIGHWAY Phone AVcnue 5â€"0032 Intermingled with the success stories and record catches we hear about after the opening of the fishing season. are always a few amusing incidents and some- times embarassed anglers. Here are a few of them that recently came to the attention of “San- dy" Ellis, Fish and Wildlife In- spector at Maple. Names are mercifully omitted. On check- ing a fisherman recently at 8 o’clock in the morning at Nich- olson dam Lnspector Ellis was informed by the beaming angler that he had driven from Toron- to and started in fishing at 6 a. in. He stated he had caught his limit of five 4 1b. rainbow trout and was on his way home. The Inspector examined the fish with dutiful admiration and heard about the fishermen's secret tech- niques and lures used. After- wards "Sandy" said, “We could not disillusion such an enthusias- ‘tic sportsman and only hope that ‘none of his friends will be so hard hearted as to tell him that the “rainbows” were really “red ihorse suckers”. \Better Luck Another story tells of four en- thusiasts who were busily en- gaged fishing on a stream run~ ning beside a country road in Adjala Township on opening day. The men had expensive tackle and the full quota of as- sorted lures. Unhappily they advised one of the Fish and Wildlife staff driving by that in spite of all their efi'orts the fish 'Weren’t hungry and there hadn’t been any bites. It is a bit hard to believe but had they checked ‘a little further they would have ‘discovered that the “creek” was actually only a roadside ditch and the water resulted‘from a heavy storm the night before. Life Father â€"- Like Son? On another stream Conserva- tion Officers asking a fisherman how he was getting along, were informed that the creek was full of brown trout, but small in size and hard to catch. However. he told the officers his chum fur- ther upstream was having better luck and had already taken about a dozen. When the Department men checked the other chap he sorrowfully admitted taking 12 undersized brown trout and pro- duced them for any action nec- essary. It was a good opportun- ity for warning the fisherman that the limits on brown trout were five per day and the mini- mum length was 7”. As it turned out the fish were “horned dace chub.” Some Creek We have heard something like this story before. Two parents took their five year old son with them to the Boyne River on op- ning day hoping to get a nice mess of trout. On the insistence of the 5-year-old, the father cut him a short willow pole and at- tached a two foot line, baited hook and sinker, with instruc- tions to hold it in the water yhile father proceeded with the derious business 'of catching trout.

WYMOUTH LUCKY DOOR PRIZES arrived on the double in time to save his son from being pulled into the river. On the ‘other end of the pole was a 4 1b. speck- led trout. P.S. â€" The father did not get a nibble all day and it still re- mains a mystery how a spe led trout of that size got into the Boyne River. Unsolved Mystery Strange things happen also on the Pine River. A lucky fisher- man hooked a record rainbow trout on opening day. After land- ing it he left it on the bank still attached to the pole while he ran some distance back to the car to get his camera and record the event for posterity. As you guessed, the fish and pole were missing when he returned. The only ending to this. story we have heard about comes from another fisherman who reported six days later seeing an unkempt and unshaven character with a wild gleam in his eye acting sus- piciously along the river bank in the same vicinity. It looked as “if the man was searching for something but unfortunately the mumblings could not be made out.
