Cameron 4 Ugh, it's football time - There was a time not so long ago when Canada's birthday meant summer had finally ar- rived. Baseball was in full Swing, the kids were packing for camp or the cottage and the sports pages were devoted to summer 'activities. But someone uncovered a neat trick called "forced". at. tendance at exhibition games (preseason games if you please), and football became a July sport, Not to be outdone, the Na: tional Hockey League decided If it's good enough for football, then it's good enough for Can- ada's national "pastime, now owned 78.6 per Americans (an improvement of almost 5 per cent over last year). Hock- ey opened camp at the same time but delayed the start of the season in order to stage "pre-season" games in their NHL arenas at NHL prices. That meant the Stanley Cup was later starting so, of course, hockey became a September through May sport: instead of howing gracefully out in mid- April : Baseball moguls couldn't re. sist the obvious dollars that more games produced. They, too, started playing those pre-season" specials for the fans in their parks and, what with expansion, made = the World Series stretch through most of October instead of . iia winding up on Canada's Thanksgiving Weekend. So here we go in July and what's on the sport pages again but football in a big way. The Montreal Alouettes realizing that Montrealers still are having an affair with the Expos, are going to great. lengths to grab attention. They brought Gene Cepetelli into town, knowing full well that his contract in the National Football League, prevented his signing with Montreal. But they sure got lots of publicity. And the hockey draft kept fighting for space. A visitor from abroad would have a hard time trying to describe sports in Canada in summer. The safest bet would be to name any sport and conclude that eventually, that sport will be on a year-round basis. Horse racing is the. closest to that goal right now and only the absence of big crowds in De- cember and January keeps the so-called sport out of a 12 month operation. ; Whether we like it or not, football is back again and with- out -Russ Jackson, the Grey Cup may again be a contest. Russ is coming back for the allstar game but there's abso- lutely no chance he will return with Ottawa Rough Riders. That was part of the bargain he made with the Board of Education in Ottawa when he was appointed principal of a bilingual school starting next September. And Edmonton Eskimos are joining the physical fitness fad that has become a part of ma- jor league sport. Let's "hope their "Strength Program" is more- successul than the "Pow- er Skate" program of the To- ronto Maple Leafs last fall. The Leafs were so powerful that they needed a splurge to finish last. . According to the release sent out by the Eskimos, new head coach Ray Jauch "is con- vinced the Strength Program - for the team will produce the consistency he will demand of ' players." 'Now, translated, that means: "Coach Jauch hopes the pro- gram will show him which - players are out of shape." 5 The, release continues: "The Strength Program. is designed to develop and maintain the muscle tone and strength of the arms, legs and torso in each player. Each player - will go through a strength program each day." Translated: 'Like it or not, every Eskimo will be given the torture treatment every day, even in July when it is 90. Those that flunk will be sent packing unless, of course, ev- eryone flunks. Then manage- ment will review the pro- gram." t Certainly, pro sport is mak- ing life difficult for athlétes. The longer schedules create more opportunities for inju. ries, and shorten careers. Now, football brings Strength Programs to add to a player's woes, as if it isn't bad enough playing football in July when sane people are at cot- tages swimming, golfing or sit- ting watching a baseball game.
