Mr and Mrs Philip Mack- and Mrs J Lawson of To ronto called on Mr and Mrs Harrison on Sunday af ternoon This column is a composite a voice crying la the wilderness and a man en gaged In the futile process of locking the stable after the horse has departed But wilderness or not this voice is still in favor of the Grey Cup final being as a series between the eastern and western foot ball winners Pretty nearly everybody else has declared to the contrary including the Canadian Rugby Union but we still claim the right to speak our piece on behalf of fans east and west because we happen to think that under the present one- game final the fans dont get a fair break We grant freely that the onegame football final in Toronto is the greatest sports show Canada produces and that Varsity Stadium at Toronto with its field is better fitted than any other one place in the Dominion for such an event On the drama of a onegame final and on the setting and equipment theres not the slightest argument But the worlds baseball series and the Stanley Cup series are reasonably dramatic events too Yet they are not settled in one game in a city which may be a neutral battleground many miles from the homesites of the contending teams The folks who made possible by their seasonal boxoffice contributions the very existence of the winning teams in the American and National leagues and in the National Hockey League get a chance to see their beloved heroes in the final classic and thats more than you can say as a general rule of the Canadian football final And we happen to think this isnt fair to the fans who have supported the winning teams this radical observer the onegame setup is the height of frustration for in the home cities of the winning teams something akin to throwing the audience out of a theatre just as the dramatic finale of a gripping thriller is about to begin Perhaps were wrong Were merely offering the opinion that the Grey Cup could follow in lesser fashion the pat tern of the worlds baseball series or Stanley Sup series and be settled by games one in each of the cities whose team won the title We believe the fans in Ottawa Montreal and Hamilton would like to see the team they made possible playing for the top honors So would fans In Winnipeg Edmonton Regina and Calgary who under present plans cant get a peek at the play at all at least not until television comes in While were in a mood which is not one of sweet reason ableness we might as well disagree too with the hoist to eight imported players per team as against seven This we believe furnishes double discouragement for Canadian athletes seeking a football career Eight imports minimize their chances of making any of the major teams and the salaries necessary to lure American players here leave little money comparatively for Canadian athletes thus obscured in their own game We believe the as an economic measure to protect clubs which are spending too much money on imports as it is should have reduced the number of imports But after all were merely a voice crying in the wilderness for column be Covrt House Toronto DISTILLERS LIMITED acquainted luxe HILLMAN smooth engine velvet clutch
