0 THE CALGARY HERALD Mon Nov 30, 1970 Fans Are Winners Children Killed SCLATER, MAN. (CP) -Two children perished Saturday when fire destroyed their farm home a mile north of here. Police said Florence Matwee, 5, and her two-year-old brother, Dennis, were in the home when it caught fire. 'L mm i hi 45-yard line by another Calgarian, who still had four other tickets to give away. WELCOME HOME The whole frustration and joy of the whole eastern trip were summed up by one Calgarian on his return home Sunday night.

The captain had just announced that the aircraft was approaching Calgary, when a burly cowboy stood up at the front of the economy section and graciously declared: "I want to welcome all you people to the home of the Grey Cup champions of 1948." rL- -j. i.iimirn BV CORRESPONDENCE You can Earn Extra Income by Learning to Prepare Tax Returns for Full Details, Contact CANADIAN SCHOOL OF TAX ACCOUNTING 6 Adelaide St. Oept. 3 Toronto 1, Ontario floiv try a gentle laxative from the maker of Turns!

Again police said this year only one of the persons charged was from western Canada. BROKEN GLASS This year $300 of damage was chalked up in broken plate glass windows along Yonge St. Rowdyism disrupted and shut down the planned all-night discotheque in the Union Station early Saturday morning, and also impaired the free morning breakfast laid on for celebrants asiil passer-bys at the station. During the night, the cooking wagons had been moved by drunks, ripping out all power cable connections. Many visitors sobered sufficiently before Saturday's football game to join an estimated 500.000 who lined the route of the largest Grey Cup parade in history.

Even the game itself was a box-office success, with record receipts of $740,000, including $460,000 from the sale of tickets. The only letdown for the sell-out crowd of 34,454 in CNE Stadium was Prime Minister Trudeau's official kickolf. His 25 -yard kick into the hands of a waiting official was three yards short of his own record for heads of state performing the function. Scalpers experienced a nose dive in ticket prices. By game time the tickets were available from scalpers at $25 apiece while some fans were selling extras at the straight price of the ducat.

One fan was giving away tickets. One Calgarian who had just said two tickets at the going price turned around, and was handed two higher-priced tickets on the i From Page 17 became a milling mob, hut cheers were less fervent and quick manoeuverability in the throng was possible. However, elevator service again could handle relatively few, and the quickest mode of transportation was the stairways. As on Friday night, police were stationed at all entrances to the upper reaches of the hotel, using keys or printed invitations to identify those allowed to pass beyond. But wandering gate-crashers were again roaming the upper halls, banging on every door in hope one would open to the promised land of a booze party.

PERSISTENCE Some door-pounders got more than they bargained for. One kept hammering away at the door next to the Stampede queen and her ladies-in-waiting. The previous night several drunks had tried to gain entrance to the queen's room. Finally, in the incident of the mistaken door, the door opened and the reveller got a fistful of knuckles in the mouth rather than the expected scotch in his hand. Calgarians followed tradition.

Win or lose at the Grey Tup, the night of the game is the time to do the town, take in the attractions of Toronto nightlife. i White hats prowled the commercial strip of Yonge St. and were easily identifiable in every night club, tavern and dining room, and throughout the crowd at the Maple Leaf Gardens. Among the hockey spectators were Indians Wilf Mark and Hugh Crowehief, both of whom paraded before some 150,000 persons lining the Grey Cup parade route Saturday morning, and before the National Hockey League television audience that night. Gorde Hunter, former sports editor of the Calgary Herald, was.

SHORT TRIP Akmette supporters were boisterous but few in number. Many disappeared into the caverns of Union Station shortly after the conclusion of the game for a four-hour train ride home. Sunday the hardy still tried to carry on, but found few lakers. The action was at the checkout desk.

There were line-ups five deep all day at the Royal York's four desks, as out-of-towners took he first step to return to normal life starting Monday. To Peter MaeArthur, assistant manager at the Royal York Hotel, unofficial headquarters for the merrymakers, it was a whole new bag. "It's a different crowd. I've really noticed it this year. The crowd, from where I can see it, is so much younger.

Look at that; 16-and 17-year-olds. And there's a lot of younger ones. Maybe I'm just getting older." Name rock bands at the hotel and across the road in Union Station, where an all-night dance Friday was disrupted by rowdyism, were the chief attractions for the younger generation. DAMAGE Visible damages to the hotel Saturday flight was again limited to minor vandalism, broken light bulbs, globes, elevator mirrors, however, by that time reports were circulating that two rooms Friday night had been reduced to rubble by drunken vandals. Toronto police reported the weekend to be normal for a Grey Cup game, with about 150 persons arrested for minor infractions.
