22r-CP) The Royal Canadian Golf Association is after Bobby Locke, the South African golf wizard, for the 1949 Canadian Open. Locke, who won the classic in 1947, did not compete last year. Tournament officials said Locke had no other bookings for June 22 when the Open starts at Toronto St George's Club. E. H.

He said he expects to leave Toronto March 15 for 'Edmonton with a few stops en route to line up talent for his club. Players will be the big problem in the revival of senior football in Edmonton, a revival sparked by the victory of Les Lear's Calgary Stampeders in last Fall's Canadian finals. Was Deciding; Factor. Stukus' knowledge of the Canadian game probably was the deciding factor in his choice over Nolting.

But a strong argument in favor of the big Toronto boy was his assurance he could pick up some topnotch Canadians and that he has connections that will result in the signing of adequate imports from the United States. Most of Edmonton's hometown products are said to be a little on the old side for active competition in the tough Western Conference.

"If Canada is to participate in International hockey at all, she had better send her best teams or cot send anybody at External Affairs Minister L.

B. Pearson toid an overflow gathering of 500 at a banquet honoring Ottawa's Eastern Canadian football champions last night at the Chateau Laurier. From' his experience as athlete, coach and diplomat Pearson drew for an appreciative audience a comparison between the field of international sports and politics while paying tribute to the Grey Cup finalists, and suggested, after saying that the lines "were clear- ly drawn in each, that the Dominion should be careful how we throw our 'teams Into the realm of international in view of the different interpretation placed on Victory in various parts of the world. Mentions Soviet Reaction. Victory in international sport cow, in view of recent developments, had not come to mean so much a matter of winning a game, according to the speaker, as it was one country winning over another.

A former hockey and football star as well as coach at Toronto Varsity, Mr. Pearson quoted" in support of his contention the reaction of the press of Russian dominated countries which had Czechoslovakia's recent triumph in the World Hockey Tournament as a victory for-the -workers and the moral strength of our nation on the path to Prague sports editors also had predicted defeat of the Canadian and United States teams because of their "capitalistic style of Mr. Pearson said he had be-come depressed by the trend of international sport which had led to the emphasis being placed on one country winning against the other Instead of "12 men winning against the others'. Before the war the Nazis had had-' a great deal to do with the debasing of sport, making it a national rather than a personal issue. Sport in Communist dominated countries had become a subject of national prestige rather than pride.

Note For Three Thinr. It was then that the External Affairs Minister referred to the fact that in his opinion Canada had been noted in Europe for the calibre of the men we sent overseas in war; for its wheat "and for the calibre of its hockey players. Sa far as hockey was concerned: "We should send our best teams or not send any at alL" When the Russians a few years go had sent over a football team, to England it was not as a group of sportsmen but as representatives of a "Communist State and government, and it might have been very tough for them had they lost." Years ago the Russians had cot known hockey as the people of Canada did after originating the game. It had been played with a bat and ball there, but one of the Jew concession towards the Dominion made by Russia had been its decision in recent years to refer to the style adopted there now as "Canadian Hockey-. Pearson suggested amidst laughter that he would not be at all surprised if at some time the Soviets were to claim that hockey had been "originated by Peter the Great or Ivan the In serious vein he defined the lines "as clearly drawn" and said "we must face the On the side of democracy Canada.

Great Britain and the United States were linked, and as a parallel with football procedure he pictured Canada in the role of "running Interference" while someone else carried the balL However, he described it as disconcerting to sometimes find the ball carriers running to "consult 'Congress" while "we were trying to find a Traces History of Game. Mr. Pearson, in paying tribute to the Rough Riders as "the finest football team I have ever seen in traced' the history of football from its Infancy. He had acquired knowledge of its origin by "doing a little research during the. course of a dull speech in the House of Commons by a Conservative The speaker recalled that a team from McGill University had introduced in the U.S.

McCaffrey thanked Mr. Pearson and outlined his career as a sportsman and diplomat.

Members of the Eastern champions, with both line coach Eddie Michaels and middle wing star John Wagoner making a special trip for the occasion, were presented with leather windbreak-era, embossed wallets and group pictures by President E. K. Emerson. Mr. Emerson traced the growth of the game here since his early playing days.

In 1912 it had been the practice to look forward to a season in which the club took in $8,000 in a season. He recalled Coach Walter Masters' first coming to Ottawa as a player in 1932 for $100 per game, but expenses had increased greatly since then. He said it was the intention to build another strong team for this year, and thanked the fans for their patronage and support during the 1948 campaign. Col. George Machum, trustee of the Jeff Russel Trophy, pre-sented-the award to Eric Chipper, Rough Rider captain, who won it last year.

Mr. Emerson presented the Hiram Walker Trophy and gold watch Howie Turner, adjudged the most valuable1 player on the team. Coach Walter Masters paid tribute to his players for their fine co-operation during the 1948 campaign. "It was a great team, a fine lot of fellows and we hope to go one step' further this year. C.

B. Sneiling presented the Dixon Trophy, emblematic of the Big Four championship, to vice-captain Tony Golab and paid tribute to the entire team and Golab as a star. Eddie Michaels termed the 1948 team as "the best lot of fellows ever assembled" and said that in his opinion Rough Riders rated as the best team in Canada with Montreal second and Calgary third. Mayor Bourque extended the city's greetings while Alderman Emond represented Hull Mayor Moussette. Messages of regret at their inability to attend were read from Lew Hayman, Bob Young, Nelson Greene, Joe Ryan, Eric Craddock, Charles Lawson, Tommy Alison and Big Four president Dr.

Jack O'Connor. Mr. Emerson occasioned warm applause when he forwarded a message of congratulation on behalf of Dr. A. P.
