2A THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, April 2, 1966 rf Twas an O. Henry Plot By FRANK RATCLIFFE Times Sports Writer It was like-a story you see on television around Christ- mas time. The one about the barefoot orphan girl who stands in the snow selling matches to pass- ers-by. The only difference was the orphan was a_ 216-pound orangutan named George Chuvalo. Despite the in- congruous physique, Mr. Chu- valo filled the role admirably. Seated impassively on a stool, a pale green towel draped limply over his head, he looked like he was wishing someone would notice the wares he had to offer. CHOCOLATE KING Bouncing up and down some 15 feet away, the milk-choco- late, self-styled King of Box- ing had no such worries. Cas- sius Clay had already reach- ed the top, and if you were seeing him for the first time you were just beginning to realize why. Predictably, the Maple Leaf Gardens crowd of 14,000 -- if TAIL ho hit TEEN te hot det aH ANDERSON HIGH SCHOOL The ladies were beautiful, the gentlemen handsome, the food delicious, and the auditorium lifelike. The event was Ander- s0n's annual semi-formal which this year pvas entitled 'Vien- nese Evening'. Congratulations should go to Linda Majcher who was at the head although Janis Book, de- corations, Marion Crawford, food, and Ronnie Lofthouse, public relations, were also re- sponsible for its stunning suc- cess. The decorating committee un- der Janis Book did an excellent job. In the entrance hall stood rose bushes around a portiere which had a roof consisting of numerous rose vines. Once in- side one could look upward to sparkling gold chandeliers with reflections from the lights creat- ing a life-like image. The de- corations were,in keeping with the theme, mainly flowers and other plants, Marion Crawford's food com- mittee with help from the cook- 'ing department presented a buf- fet. It consisted mainy of sal- ads, jellies, and cold cuts and was well enjoyed by all. The Queen of Anderson for 1966 is Sue Marlow who is well supported by princesses Kathy Cockburn and Sandy Bell. "THE ORPHAN TAKES STIFF RIGHT Clay was not overly charitable Orphan Versus Goliath not the whole world -- was on the side of the orphan. True, this was his home town, but it would have been much the same anywhere. Nobody roots for Goliath. Despite all the pleasant tales to the contrary, Goliath usually wins, and he won this time in most convincing fash- ion. You couldn't tell it from the prose pouring out of the Gardens >fter it was 911 over, but the orphan goi is nose flattened. Several tons of courage and determination weren't quite enough. Eddie Shack wouldnt fare too well in a spelling bee against Prince Philip no mat- ter how hard he tried. NO PUNCH One Toronto writer mini- mized Chuvalo's loss by say- ing the only thing wrong with him was that he didn't have a . punch. That was all. Nothing serious. The same thing could have been said of that improbable game back in 1905 when Ot- tawa Silver Seven thumped Dawson City 23-2 to win the Stanley Cup. Dawson City wasn't much good but other than that they were great. Some of ihe ringside com- ments during the fight por- trayed a truer picture than all the newspaper type in the world. "Clay's landing 10 punches for every one of Chuvalo's." said one obseryer in the 10th round, and feeling was his calculations weren't far out. CHOPPED LIVER "He's got George's looking like raw liver," one said a little later. face some- "Yeah," replied his com- panion, '"'but I guess he's. had his nose broken so many times it doesn't matter much any more."' Chuvalo threw some punches of his own, like the roundhouse right in the fifth round that somebody thought came from Glace Bay, or the one in the eighth that one writer, with imaginary micro- phone in hand, announced as "a glancing blow to the left wrist'. Nevertheless, the fans loved it. They saw their boy refuse to quit even though his mug was red and puffy and his nose pushed a little off to one side, and they thought, my, isn't it wonderful. They cheered wildly -when the orphan stepped from the ring, the green towel back Car Buyers Field Days 1964 CHEVROLET STATION WAGON 4 door. Lic. X7775. 1963 CHEVROLET 4 DK. STATION WAGON Lic.
