Don admits to being very busy these days what With five nights a week of judo lessons plus his reg- ular “bread and butter" job at the Canadian National Railways passenger department in Toronto. The McClellands have lived in Richmond Hill 301‘ the past five years after moving from Willow- ale. Adding stress to the McClelland's claim that judo is fun for the whole family are their three children. Nancy 6. Kathy 3. and Robbie 1. . “Even the children practice judo with one an- other.” said Linda. “They have a great time and they‘re humorous to watch." He also mentioned how Judo seems to attract mainly mild-mannered performers. “The alley-type fighters don’t seem to like judo. it’s not their game. We insist that anyone in our judo club has to keep his judo confined to the club. We weed the bad fines out in a hurry but you don’t find too many of em." Donald said judo also teaches a person to con- trol his temper. “I only remember getting mad once in a. judo match.” he said. “I saw red and the next thing I knew I was flat on my back. That's the last time I lost my temper.” “Judo is good for the mind. makes it alert." explained Donald. “You have to think fast. Strength doesn’t necessarily mean that much. It's timing and speed.” ’ GIRLS LOVE JUDO. T00 The majority of the members are teenagers with others also joining ranging in ages from nine to 11. “We have 25 young girls taking judo lessons, too," said Linda, “which might surprise some people. They love it. Judo is a beautiful muscle-toner and it doesn‘t give you muscles. The first thing women ask is if Judo will give them muscles. unsightly muscles. I assure them it doesn‘t." She indicated to herself. Again I hastin agreed. Donald emphasized the main aim in his judo club efforts 1s to have fun, to give the youngsters excercise in. good Aspprtsmanshm as well as judo. “Did you beat him," I asked. “No, he flattened me,” said Donald with a philosophical shrug. “He‘s good." The thing about Don and Linda. who are also one of the few married judo teams around. is that one day about a month‘ ago they thought it might be nice to open a judo school in Richmond Hill. "We didn‘t expect too much,” said Linda. “We looked at various locales before we located a room above the ABC Bowling Alley. It used to be a pool hall, it still smells like one. “We didn’t even take the whole room, just one corner of it where we set up a small mat, hung the shingle out. We advertised, expected maybe 30 people, to show up. “Came the opening day and they just poured in. We couldn't believe it. We’ve been going about a month and we have 125 members with more coming in. We started out having sessions three times a week, now its five nights.” He‘s also a member of the Hatashita Judo Club of Canada and has managed to reach his high standing â€" there are only about eight others in Canada with his ranking -â€" in Only three and a half years of judo practicing. He \has also collected something like 25 trophies for tournament compe- tition wins against fellow opponents of all shapes and sizes. “I‘ve even taken on Doug Rogers.” he said. Rogers is the ponderous Canadian who did so well against the Japanese in the Olympics a few years ago. probably the best and biggest judo man in Canada, ON GUARD? Donald, who is 34, is 5’11” and weighs 195 pounds, looks more like a bookkeeper than a, fellow who has his Fourth Degree Black Belt. But I didn't argue with him} Things like throwing them on the floor with a Uchi Mata hip toss, reduc- ing them with a shoulder threw, foot sweeping them to death, and even (oh, heavens!) choke - holding them? . . - Yes. you‘ve got to know- ' ‘ how to fall when you talk LINDA MOCLELLAND with Linda McClelland of 416 Browndale Crescent in Richmond Hill 01', for that matter, her equally soft-spoken. bespectacled husband, Donald. “You’re not one Of thesie, ahh. women liber- ationists. are you '3” I ventured cautiously, ready to hit the floor at the first sign of violence. Linda got a Uchi Mata look in her eye but simply said, “No.” I then adroitly switched over to husband Don- ald who has a few things going for him judo-wise, a so. ‘-‘I have my First Degree Black Belt.“ Linda explained. “I've had it ever since I was 17 years old, I’m 28 now.” She went on to speculate that she was‘ one of probably only four other women in Canada With a black belt. I wasn't in the mood for arguing. ’ But it was frightening the things, the black things she was saying you could do to people. ,VOL. 94, NO. 18. Because Mrs. McClelland, or Linda as I shall refer to her, is a judo expert which means the “gentle way” of putting you on your . . . erh . . . guard. She didn’t really look that dangerous sitting there. She appeared to be quite demure, pretty, soft- spoken ,Vet. She claimed that she was only 5'4", weighed 110 pounds, and I believed her.

It is likely Mr. Plander will now make formal application to plan- ning board for an amend- ment to the zoning bylaw to accommodate his centre.

For those never-say-die hun- ters who braved the inclement weather the results were consol- ing. Hunters success figures gathered indicate approximately one bird per hunter in Whit- church. and one half of a bird in Markham. Heavy fog together with rain greeted the hunter in the morn- ing, with the rain continuing in most parts of the district until mid-afternoon. Few hunters in comparison with past opening days were to be found in the field.

Weather Just Rotten For Pheasant Hunting YONGE ST.,I MILE NORTH OF RICHMOND HILL Datsun cars were the first imported cars to receive con- firmation in mid-May of their qualification to meet the very strict exhaust gas standards set by the State of California. All 1971 model Datsuns comply with these regulations â€" including those now being sold in Canada â€" are all fitted with emission control equipment. The California exhaust gas control measures are the most severe in the world and specify the following minimums for exhaust gas content: Carbon monoxide: 23g-mile; Hydro-carbon: 2.2gâ€"mile; Nitrogen ox1des: 4g-mile; Fuel evaporation: Gg-test. (Testing of fuel evaporation requires that engines run continuously for 11 hours under various conditions.) In April. Datsun cars were also given the exhaust gas stamp of approval by the US. Department of Health. Education and Welfare‘s National Air Pollution Control Agency. Personally. I‘m all in favor Of these controls because every step must be taken to help keep our environment clean. An announcement from the Nissan Motor Company‘s head office in Tokyo on June 8 (before the “white smog” phenomenon struck that city of 13 million people) stated that the company would exert its greatest efforts to solve the urgent problems of passenger and pedestrian safety and the elimination of exhaust gas air pollution. Nissan is the manufacturer of Datsun cars and the an- nouncement emphasized these problems were foremost in the company's overall aims of mass-producing the saf- est and cleanest‘cars that consumers can buy. Improved auto safety equipment and measures to prevent air pollution from exhaust gas have been of primary con- cern in Japan, North America and Europe. At a May meeting. the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association agreed that all research and development efforts in the immediate future would be devoted to the development of engines powered by lead-free gasoline. It is expected these will be in production within five years. Datsuns First To Meet Tough Californian Standards The editors of "Road Test” magazine really blow their minds in the review of the Datsun 240-2. First. you must know they are a very picky bunch of drivers and engin~ eers. They know all about cars and they don‘t pull their punches when they find something stupid. But with the Z-car they were so complimentary it was embarrassing. A few quotes: “A sportscar’s sportscar . . . considering the styling. the performance, and the price, the only word for the new Datsun 240-Z is ‘sensational’ . . . we would rate the little Z-car as extremely good in general comfort . . . the 240-2 stops dead true and with no dramatics . . . with the 'big discs up front, you know it’s going to keep doing it, too, come hail or high water . . . the interior is well-planned and luxurious looking . . . there is room for all the luggage one would nee-d, and the seats are ex- tremely comfortable buckets . . . gas mileage is good.” Read all about it in the August issue.
