He returned home Sunday after being sent off the practice field in Hamilto.i by coach Joe Zaleski. It happened after an exchange of words between Raimey and quarterback John Schneider.

Other problems "We had other urgent problems facing us number one the game w-ith the Hamilton Tiger-Cats," said manager Earl Lunsford from Hamilton. "So we decided to send Dave home. We'll sit down and try to solve the problem when we get back. "It's Joe's job to discipline the football team and run it, and he felt it best that Dave return home. He'll make the decision as to what the next step will be.

If he wants to keep him, fine, and if he wants to trade him, that's fine too." But Lunsford added that he is ooti- mistic the situation can be straightened out. Raimey, a fierce competitor known for his candor, said he and Schneider had "an exchange of words." He added: "Then he really rifled a pass at me and we had a few more words. That's when the coach sent me off the field. I feel Schnieder also should have been sent off the field. He was at fault, too." Raimey, an all-star in his fifth season with the Bombers, said he doesn't know what will happen next but hopes it wid be straightened out.

"I'm happy here," he said, "and I want to play for the Bombers. "We have a fine football team with so much talent that I believe we can win every game we play. I feel very strongly about this but there are certain things I'm not pleased with and I'm concerned about the team." He wouldn't elaborate, but it is believed to involve the Bombers' offensive-game plans and selections of plays.

He's been a fantastic ball-carrier ever since he entered Canadian football ranks. And the presence of Silas McKinnie also indicates the Western club can uncover a formidable ground game. McKinnie is one of the fastest men in the CFL. "Well," admitted Keys, John Atamian, another guard, was traded away.

Bayne gone The Ottawa roster lias been reduced with the departure of Don Bayne, the quarterback from Queen's. The Eastern Riders placed him on waivers and he wasn't picked up so Bayne has been dropped from the lineup.

He might have won a post had he been able to play defence but, with Russ Jackson and Buster O'Brien on the payroll, a third quarterback on the bench is not logical. game the one in which Regina shaded Ottawa Rough Riders, 6-5. Bob Thompson, a halfback from Oklahoma, has a lot of speed. It appears he's likely to catch on with the Western Riders. Eagle looks to a high-scoring game tonight and Ottawa coach Frank Clair says it's quite possible.

"We're going with our regulars most of the way in this game," says Clair. "It's our final pre-season tuneup and we have to know where we're going." Tom Pullen, who missed the western trip because of By Jack Hoffman Citizen sports editor Eagle Keys, here with his Saskatchewan Roughriders for tonight's football game against the Ottawa team at Lansdowne Park, is not found smiling too often. He's not one of the gabbiest men in football, either. But he's an easy-going, pleasant sort of chap who gets along well with the press despite his reticence. Monday afternoon, while the Western Riders prepared to take the field for a tuneup upon their arrival from Regina, Eagle discussed his club.

"We've got a lot of changes this year," he said. "The offensive line is almost completely new. What would you say if we turned out to be strictly a passing team this vear?" Well, with Hugh Campbell back at split end and playing catch with quarterback Ron Lancaster, it would be surprising if the western team did not do a lot of passing. But Saskatchewan also has a fellow named George Reed. With his type in the From badminton teacher to North American Flying Junior sailing champion in three and a half years is the story of Ian McAllister, who with the help of his wife, Hazel, won the crown at Kingston over the weekend.

Even though born and bred in the fine sailing locale of Glagow, Scotland, McAllister never set foot in a sailboat until he moved to Canada four years ago. The chance came when he joined the Civil Service Recreational Association in order to play badminton to keep in condition. There he ran into Bob Moors, one of the RA's top sailors, and Moore offered sailing lessons in return for badminton lessons. So, sailing it was, says Ian, who previously thought that people who participated were a little bit crazy. His wife began at the same time and is at present "as good if not better than I am," says Ian.

They hardly ever race together in competition and as adversaries Ian says, "I'd rather not look up the records to see which one of us has won more often." But he and his wife, who hails ironi London, England, joined forces for the first time in two years for competitive purposes on the weekend and the Norm American championship was the resuii. Going into the meet they figured an eleventh or twelfth-place finish in their 14-foot dinghy would be very respectable. The competition, especially from Montreal, Kingston and the U.S., was expected to be fierce. The championships will be held in the U.S. next year and the McAllisters would very much like to defend their trophy.

At the moment Ian feels "the cost could prove prohibitive." To keep in trim for the rest of the sailing season the McAllisters will be be competing in the Ottawa Civil Service Sailing Association championships in September and in the Ryan Memorial Trophy regatta the last weekend of next month. Whether they sail with or against each other has not yet been decided. Hazel may just want to split up and show their friends who was really responsible for that North American championship.

Spectacular scores The most spectacular touchdown came late in the fourth quarter as Mike Eben took a punt for Toronto and rambled 100 yards through the Calgary team for the six points.

The win nearly reversed the 24-10 defeat the Argonauts suffered at the hands of the Stampeders last week in Toronto.

Argonauts held a slim 4-3 lead at the end of an uninspired first half but capitalized on Stampeder mistakes in the final 30 minutes to take the match before 17,909 fans. Calgary took the lead early in the second half on a touchdown by Gerry Shaw with less than four minutes gone. Toronto came right back as Tom Wilkinson moved the club SO yards in nine plays with Dick Cohee scoring the touchdown. Wal-ly Gabler, who was quarter hansen converted all Argonaut touchdowns, kicked a field goal and scored a single on another three-point attempt that went wide. Larry Robinson converted Calgary's touchdown and added a field goal.

Toronto had a total offense of 311 yards to 271 for Calgary and had 16 first downs compared with Calgary's 14. Toronto collected two interceptions while Calgary only managed one. Toronto fumbled once and lost possession while Calgary fumbled twice, losing both. Rudy Linterman, who spent most of last year returning punts for Calgary, carried the ball eight times for 32 yards and caught five passes for 51 yards. Toronto's Dick Cohee "rushed for 31 yards on nine carries while Bill Symons picked up 14 yards on eight trys.

"A small step for a man and a giant leap for mankind" will probably outlive such standby quotablcs as "if you can't beat 'em in the alley, in the chronicles of the race.

Nevertheless, there is an athletic ring to that quote which seems sufficient justification for us sweat-shirt types to get in on the world's party. It may be a few generations before men follow the path of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin in the name of sport, but the mind has to boggle a little at the possibilities that follow that thought. A feeble old lady Pole vault? What's 17 feet? Not much at the Moon Olympics 102 is more like it, but how do you carry a 72-foot pole? Would they really have to have 18-foot hurdles to make things come out right in that event? Randy Mat-son's 71 feet, 5V2 inches would look like a gentle shove on a shot put. He'd need a 428-foot hurl to match it. Ski jumpers would need to go 3,300 feet or more to be up to scratch.

A javelin would sail out of sight to a point approximately half a mile away. Doug Hepburn wouldn't rate as a weightlil'ter. Like, the world mark in weighlifting is around 6.200 pounds. He'd have to get right up there to 37,200 to rate in the top class. To make things roughly equal, the Lunar football field would have to be 660 yards long, and Frank Clair wouldn't look at a field goal kicker who couldn't split the uprights from 300 yards.

You could go on boggling your mind all day with that kind of statistical fantasia, and up at the cottage the other day, with a cool one in hand in a group that was semi-boggled anyway, the mathematics were flying fast and furiously, if not necessarily accurately. Eagle has a new array in his attacking front unit, there's no mistake on that. Al Benecick, an outstanding guard or tackle, and Ted Urness, well known centre, retired this year. City avoids Riders9 TV disputes Ottawa will keep out of all disputes over the televising of Ottawa Rough Rider home football games. Rough Rider games broadcast from Lansdowne Park are blacked out on local television stations.

However, they are broadcast in Montreal and can be picked up by TV owners who subscribe to cable television systems. "The Ottawa Football club says it is being seriously hurt financially by having its home games available on TV to some 60,000 cablevi-sion subscribers in the area. Recently, Canadian Football League Commissioner Jake Gaudaur said it might be necessary to stop all television of Rough Rider games from Lansdowne Park, Con. Murray Heit and Aid. Don Kay asked the city to file an official protest with the CFL and with the Canadian Radio and Television Commission.

However, a majority of council members felt dispute was between the CFL and the city's two ca-blevision companies and the cily should not become involved in it.

But in one-sixth earth gravity, no atmosphere or crosswinds, and practically unlimited-roll. Jack Nicklaus on earth would have to look like a feeble old lady.

Down here on terra firma when he lets out the shaft the Golden Bear sends it growling 340 yards. Up there though, Jack's pack would need telescopes to keep it in sight. His record times six is 2,040 yards which is somewhat better than a mile. How about Mickey Mantle's longest homer? Just an infield popup on the moort, man. That was 565 feet, back in Mickey's better days in 1953, a long way out of Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C.

But if they ever have a Lunar League, those outfield fences will have to be at least a quarter piile from home plate. Mickey's blast up there would be good for 1,695 feet. He also might belt a few more in the course of a season. Without air, pitchers can't throw a curve. Nothing but fastballs, and a rookie's life would be heaven.

Don't, however, stop there. The 100-yard dash in 9.1 seconds? Mere child's play. Six steps and you're across the finish, and Harry Jerome looks like a turtle. Valerie Brumel? At seven feet, five and three-quarter inches, you could hardly call that the high jump anymore. Six times seven is 42, and that's a three-storey building.

ROUSSEL THE 500 SELECTION SERVICES (MONTREAL) LIMITED SB However, when somebody turned the conversation in the direction of horse racing au clair de la lune, one sweet young thing in the party decided it was time to get things back to earth. Said she: "How would you build a spacesuit for a horse?" Logic, sheer feminine logic, and that boggled tiu conversation to a halt. However, there are so many possibilities rampant in the whole thing that it's difficult to drop the subject quite that easily. There is, for instance, the fantastic appeal of standing on a rocky tee, overlooking a crater and knowing you can, without strain, anytime you want to, belt that golf ball 1,200 yards. Somehow though, even if I live long enough, I don't think I'll ever go on a golfing vacation up there.

It would be too damn easy to putt the same way. 615 Dorchester Boulevard West, Room 300 Quebec AFFILIATE OFFICES Toronto Quebec (416) 924-8111 (418) 522-8371 Vancouver (604 6S8-8251 Zi.
