ilotel Wednes day nigbL While their being in the same place at the lame time is nothing new Wednesday nights gettogether was slightly oneside 0f the muakcteers two were against one And as if that werent en ough the two brought along 270 additional men tarhelp end the third mans career And soit was and so it is Hewitscn known across the Do minion as Bobby has departed from theranks as active member of the world of sport by retiring from his position as Sports Editor of the Toronto Telegram The two fellows who helped to gently push Bobby out of the picture were Milt Donnell Sports Editor of the Ter onto Star and Jim Vipond of thd Globe and Mail Resigned to their late that they couldnt say goodbye to Bubbyibythemselves these gentlemen were only two of the huge throng of sport editors writers and personalities who gathered to pay tribute toga great little guy for job extremely well done As well as running the sports section of the Tely Bobby Hewit son has left his mark on practically every Canadian sporting activity While horseracing was noted as his first love Bobby will always hold high place in the annals of Canadian football it was lie who was so instrumental in giving berth in the gridiron classic The Grey Cup Game Just as important is the fact that this same little gentlchn was the lg man in the Canadian ltugby Union never failing to miss abominion final until last full He spent several of his earlier years as National Hockey League official Ever since this reporter can remember Foster Hewiti has been broadcasting the Toronto Maple Leafs Saturdaynight home games And along With Fosters was another voice that rarely missed date That was Bobbys on the Hot Stove League Backyto Wednesday night however proof was contributed hundred fold of the little guys tremendous personality Nary word referred tohim was In the negative His staff orformer staff praised and ad mired him Apparently in all of his dZyears as the head of the Tele grams sports department Bobby never once gave an assignment He would ask the reporter if he werebusy andif he were able to cover this that or the other thing litany was the time when Bobby did the assignment himself Stan Houston memberat Bobbys for merbrood described him as definition of gentleness tact conslde oration and selfvsacritice For all this every assignment became personal for Bobby and every member of his staff gave his best be cause theyd never let him down John Bassctt tjie publisher of the Tely said that Bobby was large Fawcct in the jewel Tely He said that he respected Bobby not only or his age but for his tremendous contribution towards the suedessrof the newspaper as well as Canadian sports Everything it seems has been said about Mr Hewitson but we would like to add word or twuxWeonly hope that when and if we reach the age of 65 that as many people as remembered Bobby re member us The whole evening at the King Edward was not spent in sea timental Journey And the man responsible for most of the variation was the incomparable Moaner Ted Reeve As great storyteller as weve ever heard the Moaner was determined to make it an even that Bobby his associate on the Tely for more than 30 years wohlig never forget The Moaners address was telling Hewiisons life story And quite unexpected to an one sprung this story in his teens the story started Bobby was ayingvfootball Onedayhe got knocked down and while lying there an oppopent obviously mistookhis head for thc pigskin and punted him Soon groaned tKeMoaner withoutra squint the next day Bobby decidedhe wanted to become sports writerliad he been kicked harder by bigger fellow he would have probably wanted to become coluinnist the Moancr concluded then went on withaiiother story Among the gifts presented to Bobby were iiiFl gramaphohe With records and tickets for an ocean cruiseThe Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club represented by generalmanager Frank Seike presented Bohby With cheque which was promptly turned over to the Crippled Childrens Fund The Hamilton Spectator made another presentation John Bassettalso director of the MapleLeaf Gardens said that the Gardens too had presentation to make but in
