As some sage remarked to us yesterday "if the Prince Rupert citizens won't suport a hookey name every 35 years, how do you expect them to support n hockey team or skating rink." lie was referring to the fact that despite the efforts of half-frozen Kinsmen to solicit wads of folding money from what looked a large sized crowd on Sunday, the service club failed to make expenses let alone boost Its polio fund. It was a rough go and quite a blow to the Kinsmen. They feel the public let them down after they had gone to considerable expense and as much effort to btiiig the city and district something unique and exciting in the way of entertainment. Well, that's true In a sense, but it comes back to the same old fact that unless you stage a sports event in an enclosed area where you can lock the door and club the customer over the head until he forks over the stated price, you're not going to collect from everyone whose enjoying the game. It's the same with baseball and football iri opep parks all over the country. You'll get your hone.st-to-goodness fans who wouldn't think of taking in the game for free and you get the free-loaders. Suppose you walk up to a guy on the edge of the rink. He's cheering his head off and having a wonderful time. So you rattle your tin box in his direction and accost him with "Dot your polio ticket yet, pal?" He looks at you like you've caught him kissing the grown-up baby sitter and says "I've got mine, I've already got it! Go away bud, you bother me." Now you know that this section of the rink hasn't even been canvassed yet, but are you going to call the guy a liar? Maybe he bought a ticket In town . . . maybe he didn't. Are you going to ask him to produce it. No, sir, you're not. You're going to pass on to the next person, hoping for better times. Ho you see it poses quite a problem. One that organizations have been fating for many years. But that still doesn't explain all the free-loaders at Sunday's game, or are the townspeople really that broke? Just got enough money to buy pas to get the new Plymouth out to the lake and back, eh? However, whether the town can afford enough money to build a rink, and whether the public could keep it in brine if they did, will be one of the topics under discussion when the Civic Centre Association holds its annual meeting Friday night. This should be a live meeting if the adults of the 1900-odd membership turn out. Figures, costs statistics have all been lined up on one .side of the forum and the meeting welcomes anyone with suggestions. If things get dull Civic Centre directors might have a suggestion or two about an indoor swimming pool to drop in the lap of anyone short of a conversational gambit.' But neither the Civic Centre nor on unborn hockey arena or swimming pool will flourish if the membership doesn't turn out to attend to its own business. We understand that last year the annual meeting had to grab the badminton players off the floor to rolleqt a quorum. Well if things are really tough on Friday, there'll be a Junior Boys' basketball game going on about meeting time. Mayor George Hills earned our respect Saturday i.fternoon when, speaking to the Ketchikan Rockets at a luncheon hi their Honor, he made a public apology to the Little League Baseball Association for not attending their banquet. "I was taken to task," His Worship said, "and rightly so. I can think of no better occasion than while speaking to a group of athletes, to apologize. Under the pressure of committee meetings I forgot about the engagement which I "had made a week before. I could have made it, had I remembered. It was very remiss of me." It takes a good man to admit his mistakes. POST SCRIPTS Congrats to Challengers' coach Don Hnrlttin on winning the second game of the Kelchikan-Rupert series ...
