PEOPLE’S ADVOCATE

Wovember 5, 1937

Column
One

E hadn’t a lot to write

about this week and
while, theoretically speaking,
a good newspaperman should
be able to condense a column
to a paragraph or elaborate a
paragraph to a column, it’s
much easier to let the other guy do
the talking when called upon to per-
form the latter task, particularly
when he’s got something important
to say.

So we'll put our feet on the desk
and do just that.

Dear Thing (meaning us), our
correspondent opens up:

May I take just a little of your
valuable space to register a beef
I've been packing around fo.
months. é

it seems to me it’s about time the
cauliflowered gentry hereabouts sot

busy and devised ways and means
of inducing some of our promoters
to loosen up the purse strings. Byen
when there’s a full house they hate
to shell out.

Think this over. If a guy is lucky
he gets two four-rounders a month,
each of which nets him six bucks
Gf he’s still lucky). Out of these
tremendous earnings he has to buy
his training equipment—d ecent
shoes cost $12 a pair—and feed and
clothe himself. And he’s not going
to get far in the ring if he doesn’t
keep himself in the pink of condi-
tion. :

Some of our best little scrappers
—Phil Trudeau, for one—have fami-
lies to Support and you got to admit
it's tough going.

“With the exception of main event-
ers, most fighters are in the same
spot and it’s about time that spot
was made a little softer for them.
Why don’t they form a union?

Considering the amount of pre-
liminary work before a fight—10
days of hard labor that makes 2
pickanshovel job sissified in com-
parison—$20 for four and $40 for
six rounds is not too much to ask.
Wo man can fight on tea and toast
and it should be apparent to the
promoters that the fight game here
could be built up if they will first
Joosen up-

A much better way than appeal-
ing to the generosity of tight-—tisted
promoters is my suggestion that
prizefighters get together and form
a union regularly affiliated to the
Trades and Labor Council. It would
work wonders for the fisht same
which, as every fan knows, has been
on the rocks here since Columbus
sailed the ocean blue in fourteen-
hundred and ninety-two.

In parting let me say that forma-
tion of a union would mean no more
lopsidede fights and more satisfied
fans.

Lets hear from a few more pues
and see if we can’t get together on
this.

Yours for more steak,

HAMANEGGER.

Fletchers Quipointed
By Nanaimo
5-3

NANAIMO.—In a fast senior
Upper Island soccer league game
here Sunday Nanaimo City de-
feated Fletchers 5-3.

Bobby Forrester, at centre for-
ward, led the Nanaimo attack, tali-
ing four of the team’s five goals,
while Kemp scored the odd one.
Hanna: and English netted one
apiece for Pletchers and Higgins
brought the quota to three with a
neatly placed penalty.

Most of the scoring was done in
the second half. At half-time
Nanaimo had scored only one,
while Fletchers had failed to find
the net. Forrester’s aggressive
tactics in the second half, however,
brought spirited action from both
forward lines.

Clash With Radials

Week-end Scores.

North Shore 4, St. Saviours 3.

in one of the best games seen this
season St. Andrews held their own
at Jones Park last Saturday when
they drew with Radials. Only the
fact that Ben Hagman muffed a
penalty given against Jim Lawrie,
who gained the distinction of bemsg
the first player to be ordered off this
season, prevented the Scots from
emerging as victors.

Despite loss of Graham White and
“Dip” Arnott to Safeway, the Scots
had it all over Radials in the first
half. McKibbin and Lawrie, how-
ever, frustrated all efforts of the
St. Andrews forward line to break
through, although once a miuskick
by McKibbin let Webber through.
It was Pallot, on a perfect pass
from McKay, who finally opened the

scoring in the second half to put
Radials one up and head them for
what seemed certain victory.

Finally the Scots gained their
equalizer, but only after Mekay and
Pallot and the Greers had all come

near to success.

With a 3-1 lead over North Shore
United in the second half St. Sayv-
jours were unlucky to lose their
game at Confederation Park last
Saturday.

Jack Muir and Reggie Liptrot
both had a goal apiece to their
eredit, following Alex Ghristie’s
successful effort for North Shore
early in the game, and St. Saviours
were leading 2-1 when the breather
came,

Five minutes after resumption
Ted Enefer increased this lead when
he converted from Liptrot, who was

North Shore fought right back and
succeeded in bringing the score even

tal Monday, appearing little the
worse for his collision with Ossie
