IKE RODDEN He's One Of Canada's Most olortul Sports Figures By JACK SULLIVAN madian Press Sports Editor Mike Rodden. Here's a name @hat many of Canada's younger eneration of sports fans prob- ibly have never heard, but it one that deservesa place of honor in Canadian football and hockey. Mike, now 73 and living in Kingston, Ont., is a unique and colorful personality. He is the only man in Canada to be made a member of both the hockey and football halls of fame. He made it to hockey's shrine a few years ago and, just a week ago in Toronto, football admitted him to its hall. In his time, Mike was a hard-bitten leader of va~ie' talents. He playec 1. coached foot- ball. He coached and refereed in the National Hockey League. He coached football teams to 27 titles during his career and these included two Grey Cup champions. He joined the sports staff of the old Toronto Globe im 1918 and stayed there for 20 years, eight as sports editor. He later became sports editor of the Kingston Whig-Standard and even today contributes one sports column a week. HELD THREE JOBS For a couple of years Mike held down three jobs, any one of which would have been full- time employment for the aver- age man. He coached Hamilton Tigers, 1928 and 1929 Grey Cup winners, officiated in the NHL and was Toronto Globe sports editor. . He refereed in the NHL, On- tario Hockey Association, United States Hockey League, Northern Ontario Hockey As- sociation, the International League and in leagues in the Maritimes. He was on the NHL staff for 13 years. Mike also was an all-star with Queen's Golden Gaéls football teams four years in the early part of the century, long before the great Pep Leadlay and Harry Batstone played with the - college club. And he made the all-star team af a different po- sition each year--centre, tackle, flying wing and end. He coached Toronto Argo- nauts to the 1920 Big Four championship and a year later piloted Toronto Parkdale Canoe Club to the Ontario Rugby Foot- ball Union title. Mike has some wonderful memories and the happiest con- cern the Hamilton Tigers of 1928-29. He had some great players on his club--one bruiser was Brian Timmis, the Old Man of the Mountain, a 210- pounder who refused to wear a helmet. Another was Jimmy Simpson, Hamilton's young end playing his first season of organized football. Simpson played until the early 1940s, later officiated in Big Four games and now is trainer of the Tiger-Cats. Mike considered his Cup champion Tigers the greatest teams he had ever seen. His 1928 club defeated Regina Roughriders 30-0. Early this year he talked about that club and said '"'we could have beaten them 130-0." "T told the team to take it easy," he recalled. "There wasn't much interest in the and | the crowds were falling off." In 1960, Mike, a native of Mattawa, Ont., had a lung re- moved. Few gave him a chance to survive. They didn't know Mike Rodden.

ROD CURRIE LOND: (CP) -- American football came to England and left British sports writers amused, bemused and more than a little confused. The Sunday Telegraph lik- Slened it to 'trench warfare-- without trenches." And The Times, which hardly ever takes a light-hearted approach to any- thing, said it resembled "a rather violent game of blind man's buff." The Daily Mail, under the heading 'Doodle Not So Dandy," said it is "'a sort of semi-civilized war." The Times account, bylined "From a (Bewildered) Staff Re- porter," 'said -that "once the F |ball was on the move, the Brit- ish sport it. most resembled was rugby league football--with the addition of forward passes and thé subtraction of continuity. "Short of spurning the field altogether and _ settling the whole thing with pencil and pa- per, it cannot be possible to go much further in reducing a game to a set of theories." The occasion was the final of the U.S. Air Force in Europe football championship, in which men from the base at Rhein Main, Germany, defeated a team from Chicksands, Bedford- shire, 40-0. \ LIKED HOOPLA But no one was much inter- ested in the score, being preoc- cupied instead with all the flurry of brass bands, hot dogs and cheer leaders that accom- panied the players. "One cheer leader showed unladylike tend- encies," reported J. J. Warr in The Sunday Telegraph, "by shouting 'kill the bum' through her megaphone," Nor did most of the reporters make any serious attempt to explain the game. , Even if you understand the rules," Geoffrey Nicholson as- sured readers of The Sunday 'Times, 'exactly what's happen- ing in the game remains ob- scure."" Nevertheless, Nicholson found it "a pretty splendid sight" and said that if it were only "a lit- tle more fluid it would be a marvellous spectacle." Most found the constant changing of players and the numerous interruptions tedious by comparison with British rugby in which players wear hardly any padding and play the entire 90 minutes, with no replacements permitted. Warr explained that each play is' "preceded by the equiv- alent of a huddled board meet- ing, the general manager or quarterback giving them a num- ber which is the set strategy." COULDN'T GET TIRED The team from Germany was superior, he speculated tongue- in-cheek, because "their man- aging director had more num-' bers up his sleeve." English Sports Scribes see American Football As for the play itself, he added: "The runner with the ball was preceded by six or seven hatchet men who brought down anything that moved above grass level. There was no chance for anyone to get tired --they were never on the field for long enough." Although there was no appar- ent enthusiasm for adopting the game here, the visitors got some considered praise from Doddy Hay, writing in The Sun- day Observer. "American football is fre- quently criticized in Britain on the grounds that its moves are predetermined and t! little is left to the initiative' of the in- dividual,'* he wrote. *'All.right; but let no one scoff at the man who can thread his way, as these boys do, through a series of purely imaginary gaps in a wall of struggling beef and thrashing: limbs," THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturday, December 5,1964 J] . Whitby Dunnies Meet N. York By CLIFF GORDON Whitby Dunlops whipped through a brisk workout Thurs- day night at the Whitby Arena as they made ready for their big game here tonight against the North York Maple Leafs. This game will now be played at 7.00 p.m instead of the pre- viously scheduled 2.30. Coach Pet Baker, along with manager Ivan Davie, looked over the team and appeared pleased with the way they were working. Baker informed us previous to the start of the practice that he had made some changes in the lines, in an effort to get more scoring punch, j One of the big changes is the moving of captain Brian Fletcher to centre between Tom Lavender and Paul Reed. Baker feels that Fletcher with his ex- perience and ability should be able to help carry the club at this position rather than just roving up and down one wing all the time, ; Denis Wing has been inserted at centre between Danny Sand- ford and Terry Lane. Lane look-' ed especially good with this set up on Sunday afternoon and in . practice, Jim Whittaker has been drop- ped back to a blue line position and there is a strong possibility that Ricky Gay who has been playing defence, will be moved up to a forward position to spark -- the scoring punch.

(CP) -- Harry Whebby remembers when he could sit on the sun porch of his hunting lodge and watch deer strolling on his land. The 'sight isn't as common these days, however, and it's one reason why the 48-year-old hunter and guide is so strong for conservation. Whebby, a Dartmouth con- tractor, has been a guide for 26 years, mostly in the eastern part of Nova Scotia around the Musquodoboit area where his two-storey lodge at Meagher's Grant has been host to visiting Canadian and American hunt- rs. , The outdoorsman, whose five- foot-10 frame is packed with 214 pounds of solid muscle, often goes for an 18-mile walk before driving the 35 miles from his camp to construction jobs in Dartmouth. His observations on such strolis have convinced him that the province's deer herd has de- creased to a fraction of what it was 10 years ago. In 1940-55 there were at least 15 times as many deer as now, he says, blaming the drop on the growing population, "winter kill," and, most of all, the fact that hunters are allowed to shoot does. "~ He says a Closed season on does is needed for three years "to give the herd a chance to get its breeders back." During this period, hunters should be allowed to shoot only one four- point buck a year. PLAYED HOCKEY A former hockey player (he played centre and defence with Sydney Millionaires of the old Cape Breton senior league from 1939 to 1942) and a harness rac- ing buff (40 acres of his land have been cleared for grazing for more than 30 horses he and his brother Eric own), Whebby has conservation interests as big as all outdoors. "Our sports fishing is defin- itely going backwards," he says. Taking of salmon by trap nets in saltwater estuaries is not letting enough salmon up the rivers to spawn and "we're Veteran N.S. Guide Sees Need For Conservation taking out more than the fish are putting back." He realizes that some com- mercial fishermen make their living by trap netting at the estuaries but maintains that if too many salmon are taken be- fore entering the river to spawn "there won't be any left for them either." Another drain on the salmon population, he says, is the con- tinuation of the ancient system of granting berths to fish salmon by net in certain harbor waters. For a small fee a fish- erman has exclusive right to one small section of salmon water, a privilege that remains until his death. But Whebby says there must be a certain period, possibly two or three weeks, during which no salmon should be taken on their way from the sea to river spawning grounds. TROUT NEED HELP He also advocates a later opening of the season on sea trout which in most Nova Scotia rivers is April 15. What is happening now, he says, is that "'slink trout" (trout travel- ling seaward in spring) are be- ing caught before they have a chance to fatten up. If the season were postponed to May 1 it would allow the young trout to reach the sea where they would feed . and grow sturdy before returning upriver about mid-June. As it is, the hungry slink trout, having spent the winter under the ice, "bite at any- thing." Fattened fish, though tougher to catch, would offer better sport and a more delect- able prize. Noting that Nova Scotia this year had its first moose season in 27 years, Whebby says he was sorry that hunters. were permitted to kill females. A herd is only as good as its breeders and to allow hunters to shoot cow moose is "'ridicu- lous." He suggests that to bring moose hunting back to the prov- ince it should import moose-- perhaps 50 a year at a ratio of three cows to one bull--from Newfoundland to "mix with our own herds." By THE CANADIAN PRESS Rookies supplied the thrills in the Amcrican Hockey League Friday night as Pete Stemkow- ski continued his blistering scoring pace for Rochester Amiericans and Gordon Wilkie sparked Cleveland Barons to their first win in eight starts. Stemkowski's sixth goal in four games gave Rochester a 4-3 sudden-death overtime win over Providence Reds. Wilkie's two- goal effort provided the margin in Cleveland's 5-3 victory over Pittsburgh Hornets. Rochester moved eight points in front of second-place Buffalo Bisons in the western division while Cleveland remained at the bottom in the west with only four wins this season. Pete Stemkowski Pacing Rochester Baltimore Clippers downed Springfield Indians 7-4. in the other Friday game.
