When the five accepted position as leaden of Nanajmo's newest sports infant, an organization was created dedicated to the development of football on a wide-spread With the front office keyed to spreading the gridiron gospel, north, south, east and west, the formation of a touchdown club is a major step in giving members a thorough education in all phases of Canada's major fall sport, Expecting to spend considerable time nursing a sickly Infant, club officials were astounded when the youngster developed overnight into a well-muscled juvenile. Starting from scratch, the Nanaimo Touchdown Club now has a membership of approximately 13S, with the list till growing, and starting Thursday. July 18, the club will hold its first meeting in the Net Room of the Tally Ho at 7:30 p.m.

T.D. club officials plan to hold luncheop meeting every second Thursday of the month during the football season, and expect to bring over various members of the B.C. Lions executive and team as guest speakers. For Thursday's meeting, Denny Vietch, Lions' minor football co-ordinator; Mack Burton! and Jack Lyons representing Labatts will be in attendance. Membership fee in the touchdown club is $2.00, which will entitle members to view films of all B.Q.

Lions' away games; be eligible to see the home games via the huge screen at the Royal Theatre in Victoria, and obtain the excellent Touchdown magazine at a reduced rate. All phases of football will be covered during the season-lon meetings, and officials are confident members will be rewarded for regular attendance by picking up a thorough knowledge of the game. Although they won't come right out and say so, it is quite evident that the ultimate aim of the club is to persuade the B.C. Liops to use Nanaimo as a training site. Lions general manager Herb Capozzi has already hinted that the football club is contemplating moving from Courtenay, and there is little doubt the Nanaimo officials have sent in a feeler or two.

Peterson, Martin et al point out that Nanaimo is blessed with perfect layout at the senior high school with its huge expanse of turfed field and facilities, while overnight accommodations in the various motels is second to none. They hope that the city council win aid their cause.
