On Whyte, poor wight FRANK COLLER, Vancouver, B.C.: In the Pacific Tribune of September 4 you refer to Doug Hepburn in your lead editorial and again in your sports column. While I-agree in principle with your criticism of the British Em- pire Games bungling of our city council, ih the interests of truth and accuracy I must bring the following to your attention. You twice state that Doug Hep- burn would have won a gold medal at Helsinki, had he had the opportunity to go. Well, he did have the opportunity. The weight-lifting trials were held in the East and he refused to attend. on his own choice although he was asked to by local weight-lift- ing officials and by the writer. Instead he preferred to send them an old weight-lifting total White Your he had made, saying that if any- one beat his total; well and good. H. Baille of Toronto did beat his total (which was Hepburn’s only official total by the way) and so became Canada’s representative in that weight division. Presuming that Doug . had been chosen to compete at Hel- sinki it is by no means certain he would have won. In fact it is this writer’s opinion he would not have won. An opinion form- ed through personal knowledge of Doug’s ability at that time. For instance, he could not be cer- tain of much more than 350 in the press, at that time, while a snatch of 300 was still touch and go. Allow him another 350 in the clean and jerk and his total is stil] 13 pounds under Davis, and who knows what Davis might -have done under pressure? I am convinced Doug would not have won. : One other thing. I take your sports writer to task for his re- mark, ‘the Americans wanted to win so desperately that they pro- tested Hepburn’s ‘snatch’ but of- ficials rejected the unsportsman-" like squawk.” Evidently Bert Whyte is not too familiar with the ‘Iron Game.’ Protests of the style, and style is a deciding factor, of other lifters is part of. lifting: You make your protest and the judges decide. The qual- ity of sportsmanship doesn’t enter into it, unless, of course, you protest unnecessarily. Since your writer did not witness the lift he cannot know the motive for protest. Again, Doug’s snatching style is none too good at any time. For instance; during his recent re- cord breaking attempt at Alma Academy, when he pressed 372, snatched 302 and ciear jerked 372, had I been an official I would have ruled out his snatch for pressing. However, the of- ficials presiding saw otherwise.
