14 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, October 6, 1964 BOBBY BEATON Colorful Sportsman Recalls Long Career By ED SMITH NEW GLASGOW, N.S. (CP)-- top oes ee ee listed on the card in New Glas- aly night in 198 but aay % many inot insist the fifth was the best of the lot. Referee Bobby Beaton. had just finished aged 10 over middleweight Bumbaso, a soldier from Debert, N.S., who had a lot of pals rooting at ringside A cacophany of catcalls came from a cluster of khaki - clad comrades who were of the opin- ion their had been the vic- tim of iclent refereeing. Never one to dodge a chal- lenge, Beaton invited his tor- mentors to enter the ring and settle the argument. One did. Beaton recalls the soldier out- weighed him by about 30 pounds "'but it was the start of order at the stadium as I knocked him out with two punches and have been referee- ing ever since." It's been almost 20 years and more than 300 fights since that! night, but Beaton, now 52, con- tinues as the most sought-after- third man in Maritime boxing. "I'm not out to set any en- durance records, but I love the fight game and intend to keep at it as long as my legs stand up and my general health re mains okay." PLAYED HOCKEY A native of Port Hood, N.6., Beaton, now an insurance ex- ecutive, has stayed at a solid 180 pounds the last 10 years with lots of walking, bowling, curling, skating .. . and refer- eeing. This variety underlines the versatility of one of the most accomplished and colorful athletes the Maritimes have known. For Beaton has also been a boxer and marathon runner and has played hockey, baseball and softball. Such versatility can have its disadvantages, too, Beaton dis- covered, because it was boxing that cost him a chance to play with the 1933 Allan Cup hockey cham pions, Moncton Hawks. His amateur hockey status was revoked that year when he ap- peared on a professional boxing card. ' | It was also a fact that Beaton occasionally had difficulty leav- ing his ring skills behind when he ventured out on the ice. During the Second World War, classy senior leagues operated in the Maritimes and Beaton himself against clubs with NHL stars in the services. A report of a 1941 game in Halifax Forum recalls that "nothing was barred in the near riot that Bobby Beaton of the Halifax Crescents and Fos- ter of the RCAF touched off in the last period." PRIVATE BATTLE When the general melee was sorted out by police and offi- cials, Beaton and Foster broke away for a private set-to. The newspaper account says "'only one punch was thrown, a terri- fic left hook that put the air- man away for five minutes." Beaton's senior hockey career began in 1931 with New Glas- gow Panthers. After patrolling right wing with Moncton and Saint John teams, he headed for England where he per- formed with Brighton Tigers, Streatham Lions and Falkirk of the Scottish League. After war- time stints with Halifax Cres- censt, Beaton became playing coach in the Antigonish-Pictou-| Colchester senior league. [ B - led teams prod + a OLD COUNTRY SOCCER SCORES .

The Scots are also without) Caidow, a former captain, who) had his leg broken in last} April's international with Eng- land. In both defence and attack, the Scots have lost much of the skill and fire which brought them two suc- cessive British international championships, and much team re-building will have to be done before the world cup series of! 1966. England, on the other hand, have made ea good start by win- ning their first game, with Ire- s land, at Belfast, The youn-g|for Scottish soccer if the Hamp- Irish team, also in the processiden Park team won promotion of rebuilding after the retire-to the first division this season.

Everton lost at home to West Ham, and drop-} ped back in the league race. Liverpool and Tottenham are in the battom half of the table, but Manchester United look like the most serious challengers to Chelsea's leadership.

The MFB issued the or- der after reviewing safety factors following Caturday's dress rehearsal of the two ceremonies at the National Stadium. "High heels are danger- ous things," said one MFB official. "A woman could get a heel caught in a seat. Or even worse, some woman might get too excited and spike someone sitting beside her. "Besides flats are much more comfortable." i They went to training camp in Montreal where "we learned a lot from former New York Mets pitcher Ray Daviault." They proved good enough to be chosen along with two players from Calgary, one from Nova Scotia and nine from the Mont- real district.
