Former Olympic star
dies in Montreal —

MONTREAL (CP) — One of
Canada’s most noted runners
and a medical authority on
tropical diseases, tuberculosis
and chest diseases, Dr. Phil Ed-
wards, 63, of Montreal died
Monday night.

The British Guiana native,
who won five medals for Can-
ada in Olympic Games track
competition, was one of four
men named almost a year ago
for induction in the new sports
hall of fame at New York Uni-
versity.

A 1930 graduate of NYU who
became a consultant for the Ca-
nadian government in tropical
and chest diseases, Dr. Ed
wards, who was part Negro, be-
came the first of his race to
graduate in medicine from
McGill University in Montreal.

He was honorary head of the
department of parasitology at
Montreal's Royal Victoria Hos-
pital. :

His NYU award, one of four
by the university, came 34 years
after he hung up the track shoes
with which he brought in-
ternational honors to Canada.

“This award was especially .
exciting,” he said at the time. |
“In the past the only people en-
tered in the NYU hall of fame
were writers and poets, sculp-
tors and academics. It was very
nice to be one of the first in the
new sports section.”

BEGAN IN 1927

Phil Edwards started his
track career at the university in
1927. He was credited by NYU
as the man most responsible for
emergence of the university as
a top track competitor in the
late 1920s.

In 1928 he won the 80-yard
outdoor title of the Intercolle-
giate Association of Amateur
Athletes of America and anc-
hored the victorious NYU two-
mile indoor relay team. In 1929
he helped NYU win its first in-
tercollegiate championship.

Because he was a British sub-
ject he didn’t want to run for the

U.S. in the 1928 Olympics, so he
travelied north and qualified for
the Canadian team,

In the Olympics of 1928, 1932
and 1936 as a middle-distance
runner,-he won a total of five
bronze medals.

He was a member of the third. -

Place Canadian 16,000-metre
relay team in 1928 and again in
1932, He was bronze medallist in
the 800 and 1,500 metres in 1932
and third again in 1936 in the 800
metres,

In 1936, having quit running,
he went back into training to
help out when the Canadian
team need bolstering,

His third-place bronze medal
in the 600-metre run and his fifth
place in the 1,500-metre race not
only added to Canada's point
totals but added Phil to the
Tanks of black athletes from
many countries who shot holes
in Hitler’s pure Aryan track
army on their home field in
Berlin.

WON MARSH TROPHY

On his return he became the
first recipient of the Lou Marsh
Trophy for Canada’s best ath-

ete,

Recently graduated in medi-
cine from McGill, he served
overseas in the Royal Canadian
Medical Corps in the Second
World War.

Dr. Edwards, of mixed
Negro, Indian and white blood,
served for three months in 1960
as a member of a Canadian Red
Cross team of four doctors and
six nurses working in
Coquilhatville in the former
Belgian province of The Congo.

His assignment at Coquilhat-
ville included running a
surgical clinic in the mornings
and visiting an 9800-bed
leprosarium at Iyonda, about
eight miles out of town, in the
afternoons.

Dr. Edwards had been ill for
about three months before his
death.

His wife and three daughters
survive,

-feated Washington Senat:

on Nixon's price freeze, 10% surcharge | TO PONDER AWARE

The Fisheries Council of
Canada, Ottawa, released
comment today on President
Nixon's August 15
Proclamation. :

“It has taken some time to
assess the effects of the
measures announced by
President Nixon on August 15,
as they pertain to the Canadian
fishing industry.

“There were three aspects to
be considered — the impact of
the 10 per cent surcharge, the
effect of the price freeze, and
the level which the Canadian
dollar will reach in relation to
the U.S. dollar,

“Now thal we have had time
to analyze the application of the
surcharge, it is clear that it will
affect us more severely than
was thought al the outset, Yased
on our 1970 exports to the U.S.,
the surcharge will add aver $3
million in additional duties.
Since our common practice is to
quote prices landed in the U.S.,
duty paid, this extra expense
falls on the Canadian exporter,

‘The U.S. regulations provide
that the increased duties can be
passed on, under certain cir-
cumstances, and, at the outset,
this appeared to be an easy way
out — without getting hurt too
much — in other words, to in-
crease prices to cover the in-
creased duties.

“In actual fact, it is proving

difficult to meet these ad-
ditional costs in this way.
Despite the provisions for price
increases which exist in the U.S.
law, many of the U.S. chains,
following the spirit: of the
President's proclamation, are

refusing to raise their prices. In.

addition, sales of many items of

concern to us have slowed down.

and we cannot risk slowing
them down further by price
increases at this time.
Groundfish products are a good
example. During the first two
quarters of this year the total
U.S. consumption of groundfish
was down by 35 million pounds,
or 11 per cent from the Jan,-
June period in 1970,

“The freeze on prices in the
U.S, is beginning to have ad-
verse side effects on our in-
dustry. There are many fishery
products which are produced on
both sides of the border and
which can move in either
direction free of duty. This
means, in effect, that the U.S.
imposed ceiling prices becomes
the ceiling on the Canadian
market, because if our -prices

should move higher than those .
in the U.S. — they. will attract :

importsfrom across the border.

“There. are other products
which are produced. on both
sides of the border, but with the
U.S. surcharge, take, a much
stiffer duty going in to the US.

than they do in reverse. As an

exampie, our canned .salmon -

entering he-U.5. now has a 19

per cent duty — compared with -

7% per cent on’ U.S. canned
salmon entering Canada, With a
US. ceiling price on the
product, there could be a

downward pressure on the .

Canadian price. 22

“Other products which fall
into this same situation —-a
much higher U.S. tariff than the
corresponding one in Canada —
are sardines, groundfish and
