hockey this season in the league It would do you good to see the light of pure pleasure in the eyes of Fred veteran Bradford sportsman and a driv ing force behind the new cm- munity arena there There hasnt been less than 300 on hand for any hockey match and Fred is convinced that in both the puck and gutted stick game Celerytown is in for a big re vival Speaking of Bradford It was wtih deep regret that sportsmen everywhere rend of the untime ly death of the late Baldwin Big was a lacrosse star of yesteryear in both lacrosse and hockey al though he was best known for his lacrosse efforts Aside from Bradford he played with St Simons and Riversides We can recall the day all too many years ago in a juvenile lacrosse match at the old Bradford fair grounds when received a scar he was to carry all his life from the overzealous stick of the late George Fleury of Au rora Although it was not inten tional we can recall that all of us had to take refuge in one of the judging stands until rescued by cooler heads among the irate fans On the subject of accidents given the hushhush treatment is the injury to Charlie Burns of Whitby seniors who received a broken jaw recently in a senior game and who is in serious con dition Burns it will be recall ed played for Toronto Marl- last year and wears a steel plate in his head from a previous injury He plays base ball as well a catcher no less and was scheduled to have a trial with Toronto this spring Burns met the OHA ruling of a doctors certificate and got his parents OK before being grant ed a certificate to play A fine player it is to be hoped he re covers well as ever as is now indicated but that he calls it a day in sports Harold son of the great Sonny is once again one of the stars and one of the few native sons on the Milton
