Page 10 â€" THE TIMES ADVERTISER â€"â€" Thursday, August 30, 1962 Spearheading the drive for more money to keep Thistletown YMCA alive, the trio of Mr. Fred Harshâ€" man, Mrs. William McGee and Dr. Ann Curtin are still collecting useful donations from residents for their Satâ€" urday sale and auction. On the auction block will be fifty original oil paintings generously donated by the Franklin Carmichael Art Club. We salute the artists for their fine gesture. â€" e When was the last time you had the fun of attenâ€" ding an honest to goodness auction? All residents of the area will get their chance to participate in one of these rare and wonderful sales campaigns on Septemâ€" ber 8th. Comparing Canadian football to the American game is something like matching Davis Cup tennis to a ping pong bout. One is fast, exciting and strenuous, the othâ€" er strictly back and forth. Can you imagine rugged Red Storey calling for "Time Out" or the Big Train electing a "Fair Catch"? Nonsense! Possibly this was Agase‘s downfall. Up here we don‘t mollycoddle our players. Usually the stretcher bearers have to run for their lives or wind up in the middle of Shatto plunge. GOING, GOING, GONE! It seems that a group of fine people is not quite satisfied with Thistletown‘s outmoded youth facilities, and is actually doing something about it on their own. Over the past year this paper has run what practically amounts to a crusade to bring about even adequate facâ€" ilities for the voungsters. Now we have company. People of Thistletown and the surrounding subdiviâ€" sions should not get the idea that the efforts of these good persons will solve the problem of a youth centre. It is a start, a solid one, but it can only extend the exâ€" isting facilities in time, not capacity. HOW BEN FRANKLIN th mADE IT |.,, ‘The foundation of Benjamin ) li Franklin‘s fortune w a s hisJE‘ "‘Poor Richard‘s Almanac." He} established | this publication â€" in | P 1732 and it became a best seller| for 25 years. Franklin quickly & made ‘"Poor Richard‘s Almnn-;fg ac‘‘ _ wellâ€"known . by predicting}ifig the death of his most formidable 4 rival in almanac publishing. On‘|/} the day forecast he lnnouncedI 4 Still the big question remains. Who is going to fill the wellâ€"worn pacing groove behind the Argo bench? Would you care to try, buddy? One conmsolation. You couldn‘t do worse. Thistletown "Y" was no doubt O. K. in the days of the remote police village in the country. Now the area While three straight losses had a great deal to do with the tardy departure of our erstwhile friend, we felt that the Gilchrist episode was the last straw. Pro football is big business, and it therefore follows that the men who indulge their athletic prowess in the sport are businessmen. You don‘t find to many junior executive types punching a time clock. This is the significant point. Agase was assistant coach at a U. S. college. It took him three years to disâ€" cover that "Rah, rah, rah!" and Siss, boom, bah!" do not win pro matches. He was no longer dealing with schoolboys. Look at his imports this year (what imâ€" ports?) Only one of more than two dozen made the grade. What would your boss say if you guessed right less than four ner cent of the time? is the fastest growing@ in Metro, the village has given up the ghost to the Taj Mahal, but we still have the same old "Y". TOO LITTLE TOO LATE Toronto football fans expressed little surprise or sympathy when coach Lou Agase got the axe last week. The only question in our minds was how the man lasted so long in a job for which he was undoubtably not qualified. â€" â€" â€" â€" Something will have to be done. It took Rexdale alâ€" most â€" six years to finally get approval for Pine Point Arena. Maybe if the people alon# Albion Road start now they might stand a chance of breakin« cround for a community centre before all of those 25,000 people they promised us arrive in town. Along with thousands of scalper victims, we thoroughly believed that Argonaut Managing Director Lew Hayman would bid his latest fizzel a fond "bye bye" after last year‘s humiliating defeat at the hands of the bluntâ€"toothed Tigers. With the best backfield in Canadian football and a healthy lead going in the deciding game, how could any man blow a sure thing? It wasn‘t easy, but Agase managed to do it, and Hogtown fans by the score simpâ€" ly sat down and cried. Friend Tom Thomson reminds us that the Thistleâ€" town Softball League will resume play next week after a one month layoff for vacation.
