Thus attired, he was ready for the photographer who’d come to his Granville Street men’s cloth- ing shop to record something of Willie’s other business. Willie Fleming, of course, is first and foremost a football: player; the most oa aE | halfback British Columbia Li- ons have displayed in their West- ern Football Conference history and voted for three consecutive seasons as the most popular play- er among B.C. fans. ' So far this season, he’s given every indication that he'll be the field —if not more so—than in his previous three years with Lions since coming here from the Uni- versity of Iowa. GATE ATTRACTION His sensational explosive run- ning is the Lions’ most potent, ticket-selling advertisement. Off the field, the 23-year-old Will of the Wisp is his own best advertisement, a likely candi-' date as one of the best-dressed individuals on the Lion roster. | His taste runs to casual wear and this might prove a handi- | cap in sartroial competition of international society. But among the sports fraternity, he’s con- sidered a well - dressed young “In a way,”. Fleming said, “T've been a bug on clothes as long ‘as \I can remember. I’ve always| ;spent a lot on clothes, so when I Igot the chance, I went into the | business.” The business is called the Li- ons Den, a men’s wear shop in which Fleming is in partnership j with long-time Vancouver cloth. oy Frank Richards. Fleming runs the shop, han- ‘|. dles the buying and some of the selling, but has to employ staff to help out, especially in foot- ball season, { Ottawa in defensive battle By The Canadian Press It’s been a while.since a team took over first place in the Western Football which it failed to score a touchdown. Saskatchewan Rough riders turned the clock back Monday night, putting together four sin- gles and a field goal to earn @ 7-71 tie at Calgary to take a one- point lead in the crowded WFC standings. 7 .. In large measure, they owe their exalted status ‘to their namesakes from the east. In a devastating two-game opening of their interlocking schedule, Ot- tawa Rough Riders slapped down the mighty Eskimos 29-21 in Edmonton last Friday and moved on to Vancouver to jolt British Columbia Lions 18-7 Mon- day night. That left the Lions deadlocked Blue Bombers in with four points apiece. Stampeders have three. ° OTTAWA MOVES UP . Ottawa’s double victory pro- duced a tie at the top of the Eastern Conference standings as the Riders joined Hamilton Tiger - Cats with. six points apiece. Montreal Alouettes are third with two points and Tor- onto Argonauts have yet to pick up a point in three outings. . Saskatchewan and Calgary battled to their deadlock in a chil] wind and driving rain be- fore about 11,000 fans. Fine defensive play marked the game, with both teams hav- ing only one good opportunity at a touchdown. The Stamps made the most of their chance when fullback Earl Lunsford slid over Bskimos and with Winnipeg second place The from the one-yard line for the’ yard touchdown to give Ottawa | : “age groups: game’s only touchdown and Larry Robinson converted. Saskatchewan's scoring was |made up of three singles by full- jolts B.C. Conference in a game in in punting. He averaged 50.5 yards on 11 kicks. | Saskatchewan took a 1-0 lead in the first quarter and increased it to 6-0 by the half.

Calgary had a 286-yard offence with 19 first downs. | Quarterback Bob Ptacek was ‘good on six of 11 Saskatchewan ‘passes for 108 yards while Cal- gary’s Jerry Keeling and Eagle Day combined to complete six _of 15 for 80 yards. At Vancouver’s Empire Sta- dium a crowd of 29,423 watched ' . the Lions go down to Ottawa in a hard-knocking defensive bat- tle in which tempers flared and. penalties were frequent.

' “They come in and talk foot- ball a lot,” Fleming said, “but they also buy clothes.” Claridge said Willie’s personal taste in clothing is fairly con- servative. “He dresses in good Ivy League , fashion,” Claridge said. “He’s al- ways well dressed, but not gau- dy.” '- Fleming, more comfortable without the tie, is more inclined to discuss football than his clothing interests. | He’s under contract for two years to Lions, has taken out the necessary papers to qualify for , Canadian citizenship in three ‘years’ time if he chooses to do ‘so and has settled down fulltime \in Vancouver where he and his ‘wife are apartment dwellers. “Ym hoping for a real good year,” he sald of hits football career, “I had a bad one last year (he was selected to the WFC all-star team) and I’m hoping I can have 2 better one this year.” Jiof his Lion teammates — “I buy! gie and a field goal by Reg | Whitehouse. lsays end Pat Claridge, “put he; , doesn’t try to push us into buy.

The Vikings won 88 games to the Boomerangs 86. The perennial Holkestad was the star although he was not playing the brand of tennis that has made him club champ- jon.
