Carmen Basilio Has Accepted | PTI Position Tay Pay Gorman Was Colorful Canadian By JACK SULLIVAN Canadian Press Staff Writer A sports columnist once wrote that anybody who would cate- gorize Tommy Gorman as a "promoter" would do him a shocking injustice. '"He's the unchallenged champion of all enter tainment promoters in 2 Canada." Those words were recalled | with the death in Ottawa this week of "Tay Pay." He was a rollicking, effervescent man whose tongue and typewriter Mand keen business acumen opened doors for him on the promotion end of hockey, base- ball , horse racing and even figure skating. He pounded typewriters for the Ottawa Citizen and the old Montreal Herald as sports ed- itor and writer, and produced highly - imaginative copy, but the money wasn't there. And that was no place for Tommy. The typewriter was a handy gadget. There was the time, {back in 1934, when he was managing Chicago Black Hawks and the team arrived in Mont- NEVER BASHFUL | Paul Thompson, Hawk left winger, looked up from a news- paper he was reading in the lobby of a downtown hotel and remarked to Gorman: "They certainly like you in {this town.

"After all, I wrote that best to recall is the time he went to New York in 1925 to manage the old New York Americans for Tex Rickard. That's when he showed the big city boys a few promotional gimmicks. He wrote stories for the New York papers about a full - blooded Indian who could really scorch the ice. The not-so-blase Americans, who knew nothing about hockey, gobbled it all up and Tommy really let his im- agination run wild. Before the opening game he had a couple of ambulances parked outside the 49th Street entrance of Madison Square Garden. Just a precaution, Tommy explained, because a lot of blood iikely would be spilled. GOT RESULTS The house was jammed, the ambulances weren't needed and his Indian was a flop. Andy O'Brien, sports editor of | Weekend Magazine, provides an interesting anecdote concerning Gorman and Baz G'Meara, now of the Montreal Star, who then was sports editor of the Ottawa Journal. That was in 1920. Gor- man was sports editor of The Citizen and they were asked to promote a Labor Day sports show for some working - men's benefit fund. O'Meara suggested they in- vite the mayor of Ottawa. That was okay with Gorman, but why stop there? The Prince of Wales -- now the Duke of Wind- sor--was touring Canada at the time and Gorman wrote to the person in charge of the tour suggesting it would fit in with the Prince's democratic reputa- tion if he attended the event. The Prince attended, the show was a colossal success and after it was over the directors gave Gorman and O'Meara $750 each. "Just how long has this sports promoting business been going on?" asked Gorman. He used his $750, borrowed another $500 and bought a half- interest in the Ottawa Senators hockey team. Five years later he sold his share for $35,000 plus and controlling interest in the almost - defunct Connaught Park Jockey Club, and Tommy was in business. A couple of months ago, while in Toronto for a television show, he said he was writing a book. Hope he finished it, because it should make interesting read- ing. JR. LACROSSE By JACK GATECLIFF The 1961 Ontario Lacrosse As- sociation Junior A League shapes up as the best-balanced in a decade. The stronger teams, such as last year's provincial champion Whitby Red Wings, Brampton and St. Catharines have lost some of their better players who have passed the 21-year age limit, while the weaker clubs such as Fergus, Hastings Hastings (formerly Peterbor- ough), Long Branch and the new Mimico entry have added strength. The season opens today, Long Branch playing at Whitby. The biggest rebuilding job is faced by Jim Cherry, coach of Whitby Red Wings. The Wings won 'he Ontario championship in 1960, and lost to New West- minster 4-1 in games in the Minto Cup final. Whitby Red Wings have re- cruited several players from Huntsville as well as promising juveniles from the Whitby area. {LOSE WALLY THORNE THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, Mey 18, 1961 2% Whitby Opens Season Play summer, were also hard hit by the age limit. They lost their top goal - scorer, Wally Thorne, and other stars. Harvey Madgett, coach of the Brampton Excelsiors, has lost few of his 1960 players. Both goaltenders, Pete Kitto and John Jefferson, are still eligible for junior play and Don Arthurs, son of a former Bram- pton senior star, should have an excellent sophomore season. Fergus Thistles finished fifth, out of the Junior A playoffs. They they reverted to Junior B and won the provincial champ- ionship in that division over Ottawa Combines. Fergus coach Hec MacKenzie feels his team can go all the way this year. Hastings is returning to La- crosse after an absence of more than 30 years, but there won't be a single Hastings boy on the team. All players have been re- cruited from Peterborough, {where both senior and junior {teams folded this season.

Long Branch has been hard hit by the age limit and only four of last season's players are back. The new entry, Mimico Moun- taineers, is coached by Norm Gair, who with his brothers Gord and Lloyd, helped estab lish Mimico as a great lacrosse centre several years ago. The Mimjco team will be manned' by graduates of the club which last year won the southern One tario Juvenile A championship, then lost to Huntsville in the all - Ontario finals. |Peterborough senior player.

The strains of last year's election conflict between the Roman Catholic Church and the government in Puerto Rico also linger. For months, in the other is- land countries, the tension has been mounting, with periodic open clashes. Fidel Castro's move to expel foreign Roman Catholic priests and nationalize Catholic - run schools was not without advance portents. Early this year, he had said "Falangist priests still reign in the church schools, inculcating counter -revolution in the youths," and the government planned to get rid of "the sowers of traitors."
