The local club has been in existence for only four months but is reported to be making tremendous progress. It is seek- ing visits from other clubs in the area to gain experience in Dave McGregor of the Wil- lowdale club won the junior or light-weight division (up to 90 1135.). after meeting eight con- testants.

Bill Bonnell Takes The Senior Division In Judo Tournament THAT SON OF YOURS Yesterday you stood with your nose pressed against ‘the sterile plate glass of an oh! so sterile nursery and gazed at a small loundle held by a masked and anonymous nurse. He wasn’t very big and you wondered if this mite could ever survive the rigors of the modern world. Bundled up to the eyes and whipping up and down the street pushing and pulling reluc- tant autos were the boys from the service sta- tions. Mast of them had vehicles with not too much in the way of a heater and they were well nigh frozen before the rush for their se*\""‘s had subsided. Sure it cost a couple of bucks but. it was worth it to a great many people. So herewith a small salute and a tip of the hat to all the local gas station boys who did such a good job!!! He was number one son and eventually, in no time at all it seems, he learned to walk, to run, to skate and then to play hockey. From here on time seemed to gallop and he was decked out in a foot- ball uniform and even had a girl and a part-time job. Then came his own car and he seemed to live in a dizzying social whirl. Then just as suddenly he announces that he has joined the air force for a five year hitch. What the dickens is the matter with those re- cruiters, they signing up babies now??? Comes the day when he really leaves home. You're heart sorry to see him go and awfully proud of himâ€"but how do you tell him??? Just wish him Godspeed and good luckâ€"don’t ever admit you envy him because you do just a little. And you’re so darned proud of him that it hurts!!! GARAGE OPERATORS ARE HEROES The unsung heroes of the recent cold snap have to be garage operators. During the bitter cold spell of last weekend hundreds of cars in the Richmond Hill area wouldn‘t even emit a feeble groanâ€"let airline turn over sufficiently to start. And it was co d l! The only holdout so far in the NHL is George Hayes and he was suspended for refusing to sit quietly for an eye test. He says it is a matter of principle but could be he’s a bit scared of the result. It’s all a delightful mystery. Hayes does have a point. He's the kind of official that can't really deny all allegation of myopia or at least a slight astigmation. In this regard he’s a real fans’ type official and more power to his refusal to submit to eye examin- ation whether he needs glasses or not. Some people might say that George Hayes is being very short-sighted in his refusal. but that would he an atrocious pun, so let’s have nobody say it, thing?” And then the payoff will be when they can produce musicians’ union cards with dues paid right up to date! One of the real joys of any true blue sports fan is to be able to shriek at an umpire or referee, “You blind bum!" What fun will there be now in scream- ing at an NHL official? He’ll merely skate daintin over to the boards and present the results of his latest eye examination. Naturally it will show that his eyes are in much better condition than those of the vociferous, myopic filbert who called him down in the first place. Oi veh!!! This time Campbell. you’ve gone just a bit too far. Your edict may prove that all officials are reliable as to eyesight but you’ve taken away an age-old fan prerogative. Even in the Roman foru'm the resounding cry. “Caligula thou art truly blind as a bat!" was no doubt heard frequently and no one REALLY knew if Calâ€" igula could see clearly. It was all part. of the proceedings and a big part of the enjoyment. What’s the use anymore when they all carry health certificates. The only fun will be on quick whistles when every fan worth his salt can scream, “What’s the matta bum?

Clarence Campbell, prexy with the NHL is a killjoy as far as hockey fans are concerned. His edict requiring linesmen and referees to have eye examinations is absolutely the last straw.
