over the boundless surf

DUESSELDORF,
West Germany (CP). --
Wind-surfing looks like the
coming thing in West
German boating circles.
Purchases of sail-equipped
surfboards doubled last
year, from 3,000 in 1975.

It seems that in the heart
of every German lurks the
desire to get away from the
hurlyburly of one of the
most urbanized countries in
the world by taking the helm
of some kind of sailing craft.

Many West Germans can
afford a boat, but the
waterways here are

_becoming more congested

every year and that,
combined with the in-
creasing difficulty of finding
an adequate berth for even a

modest sailboat, means that .

for most people here, the
dream never will be realized
in a conventional way.
True surfing is out, for
most because it is too
demanding physically, and
anyway, the kind of water
conditions a California
surfer would look for are not

“vyerband—the

to be found in northern Eu-
rope. :

For. many armchair
admirals, wind-surfing is
the ticket. The equipment is
simple: a plastic board
about 10 feet long, insertable
mast, and brightly colored

sail with clear plastic win- .

dow for ease of navigation.
The entire rig stows com-
fortably on a car-top
carrier.

A good day’s sailing can

be enjoyed in confined

uarters, but more than a
ttle skill is required to
manage one of these sporty
craft,‘ despite their easy
handling on land. The
recommended apparel for
the novice is a bathing suit
because, at first, more ime
is spent floundering in the
water than on skimming its
surface.

But once having mastered
the ‘‘vessel,’’ the wind-
surfer is truly a_ sailor,
according to the regulations
of the Deutscher Segler-
German

'

Sailing Association. The

say that the owner of a wind-
surfing board is to be
regarded as having a bona
fide sailing craft. But
despite this official recogni-
tion, most West German
sailing clubs do not, as yet,

offer much to the wind--

surfer.

However, this will change.
This year the sailing
association is creating an
open wind-surfing class, in
which only minimum
standards in the way of
board length and sail area
will be required, in order to

encourage both proper
training and regatta
competition.

There already are 40

rivate wind-surfing schools
in West Germany, many of
them in Bavaria, where the
sport is especially popular.
Considerable activity also is
reported in West Berlin.
Some hardy souls have been
tackling the North Sea, and
one even crossed the some-
times-treacherous English
Channel, But the sailing

association frowns on salt-
water windsurfing because
of the dangers involved,
even for the experienced.
The West German
ministry of transport is
getting into the act too.
Everyone who sails in this
country must have a
licence, and this is going to
be extended to wind-surfers.
As one wit pointed out, this
might mean that the wind-
surfer may never have to
know how to cast an ancher,
as some sailors do, but may
be required to be a better-
than-average swimmer.

The next growth area for
the sport likely be the
state of North Rhine-
Westphalia, the most
populous area of Germany.
with its many lakes and
rivers, About 15 European
firms are producing wind-
surfing boards and sellin

them for an average retal
price of about $725. Various
accessories, including
rubber suits at about $180,
also are on the market.

TOUGH FIGHT

Eskies vow
to top west

EDMONTON (CP) —
Hugh Campbell, new head
coach of Edmonton
Eskimos, predicts the
Western Football Confer-
ence is going to be a donny-
brook-in 1977.

“The difference between
winning and losing an
game is fone to be close,”
Campbell said in an in-
terview. ‘The difference
between first and last place
isn’t going to be much.”

He’s confident about the
Edmonton situation, even
though the Eskimes had
problems in 1976 and failed
to capture the WFC
championship for the first
time in three years.

"If the Eskimos had
problems last year, five
other teams had night-
mares. I’ve watched encugh
film now to know an awful
lot more about this team
than when I came here ...
and I haven’t _ been
demoralized. My confidence
has grown. There are
numerous ways we can im-
prove."

Campbell said the
Eskimos have to improve on
the defensive line.

“But I can see a lot of that
improvernent from within
without changes. Having a
whole Ron Estay for
example. And in the other
positions there are a lot of
young personnel. We should
improve right across the
line.

“The same thing is true
with the linebackers. The
two Canadian outside
linebackers are both young

_and should improve im-
mensely. As for the middle,

Dan Kepley played hurt for
half a dozen games or more.

“In the defensive
secondary we're still a
young team, Joe Hollimon
was a conference allstar in
his rookie year and we've
barely tasted what Ed Jones
can de. We've got a preity
good import prospect
coming in back there too,

and with Larry Highbaugh .

and Wayne Matherne we're
going to have five out-
standing imports competing
for three jobs. I'm sure the
other two will end up
somewhere else in the

league.

leadership at safety and

ready to crest it'll he in-

SPORTS
STADIUM

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) —

Gov. Rudy Perpich signed a

bill Monday which might
result in construction of .a
new sports stadium in the
Minneapolis-St. Paul area in
about three years.
. The bill creates a seven-
member citizens’ com-
mission to pick a site and
design for the stadium and
allows issuance of up to $55
million in revenue bonds for
its construction.

The commission must
pick three sites by Aug. 1

_ and then conduct a series of

public hearings and en-
vironmental studies before
a final decision is made. Its
deadline for a decision is
Dec. 1, 1978.

. The three probable sites
for the final runoff are
Bloomington, site of the
existing Metropolitan
Stadium where the Twins
and Vikings play; the In-
dustry Square site in
downtown Minneapolis, and
a northern suburban area in
Coon Rapids.

Campbell said
Eskimos probably won't
make any more than three
changes on. defence.
“Ma one person might
break into each area.”'

Offensively, he sees the
Eskimos as solid at the
receiver positions.

“We've got the receiver
people on our roster we can
win with. Tyrone Walls has
the ability to be outstanding.
McGowan has the ability to
win games.”

With John Konihowski,
Stu Lang and Don
Warrington around, some
people expect a trade but

mpbell is reluctant to
make player exchanges.

“I want to see the people I
have, especially if they’re

oung.”’
Atrunning back, Roy Bell
will be given another shot,
as will the other people who
came through last year ...
“and we'll bring at least one
more man in.”

Campbell said what it all
boils down to is that quar-
terbacking will probably
make or break the Eskimos
this season. .

“In Tom Wilkinson, Bruce
Lemmerman and Don
Moorhead we have three
quarterbacks who have
proven they can play in the
Canadian Football League.
What other team can say
they have three guys with at
least five years’ ex-
perience?

But if one of these three
doesn’t come through ....
well, then, we'd be in a lot of
trouble.” ,

Lions
trade
Baker

VANCOUVER (CP) —
British Columbia Lions
today traded all-Canadian
defensive and Bill Baker to
Saskatchewan Roughriders
in a Western Football
Conference deal which sent
import defensive end Jesse
O’Neill and Canadian
defensive tackle Frank
Landy to the Lions.

Baker, 32, was named the
outstanding defensive
player in the Canadian
Football League last season
in his third year with the
Lions.

He began his pro career
with the Roughriders in 1965
and was traded to Toronto
Argonauts in 1974 for two
imports—linebacker Steve
Smear and running back
Pete Watson.

Toronto then sent Baker to
the Lions before the start of
that season, with the Lions
giving the Argos two
Canadians— linebacker
George Anderson and
defensive back Bob
Friend—and a_ first-round
draft choice in the 1975 CFL
Canadian draft.

Baker was transferred to
Regina by the company for
which he works at the end of
the 1976 season. He played

his college football at Ot-’

terbein. He’s 6-foot-3 and 255

pounds.

O'Neill, 24, is a two-year
veteran from Grambling
who teamed with George
Wells to give the
Roughriders a strong out-
side pass rush. He was taken
in the sixth round of the Na-
tional Football League draft
by Houston Oilers in 1975,
but elected to sign with
Saskatchewan, He’s 6-faot-4
and 245 pounds.

Landy, 27, is a four-year
veteran who played college
football at North Dakota.
He's 6-foot-3 and 240 pounds.

A negotiation list player
also was involved in the
deal, but a B.C. spokesman
did not provide further
‘nformation.

No show for miler

if New Zealand

LONDON (AP) — Filbert
Bayi of Tanzania, world
record holder in the 1,500
metres, said Monday he will
not run in the 1978 Com-
monwealth Games’ at Ed-
monton if New Zealanders
are competing.

Bayi, in London for a mect
at the Crystal Palace
Wednesday, said in an in-
terview he backs the
African sports boycott of
New Zealand. It began al

the Montreal Olympies last
summer because a New
Zealand rugby union team
was sent to tour South
Africa,

“T will not be there (in Ed-
moniton), if the situation has
not changed,” Bayi said. ‘It
is humanity that counts,
more than competition, We
know of the millions who are
suffering in South Africa,

“~ don't mind missing
events just because New

in

Zealand runners” = are
competing. Even if they
were
records I would not want to
race against them.”

The Supreme Council for
Sport in Africa, which
organized the African
boycott of the Olympics in
Montreal, has said no
Africans will compete at
Edmonton if New Zealand
does not change its policies.
