Ahearne liittyy myös niihin, jotka pitävät kisojen ennakkosuosikkina Neuostoliiton joukkuetta, mutta hän sanoo, että Neuvostoliiton voittomahdollisuus ei ole suuren suuri; Yksi syy, miksi jääkiekkoilun maailmanmesatruuskilpailut ovat jo saaneet niin suurta yleisösuosiota, on mr. Ahearnen selostuksen mu- , kaan se, kun neljä johtavaa joukkuetta — Canadan, Neuvostoliiton, Ruotsin ja Tshekkoslovakian joukkueet ovat melko tasaväTcisiä — ja se takaa niiden otteluihin täydet katsomot.

Pretty smart, huh,? A regular show-place, it is. But it presents a problem. Naturally they don't build show places for their own people over here, so why was this place built like this? I got it. They knew we were coming and just on the chance that 1 might up some day and write' al}out it (as Tm do-ing now), they got their brains together on decided: "Wont do. We've got to fix it up to look lik^ something." However, as they start-ed construction five years before we got here, l'm sometime going to ask to see the "prophet" or the "seer", who knew we were coming. At that time I had no more idea about coming to the Soviet Union, than 1 had of changing my name to Johnfenbaker; That over there is the plant. the apparent cause of the whole place being here (I say apparent to us who know better).'

Tliere is the kindergarden and the town- park right behind it, See the decorated gate. Here in front of us is one of the schools. The other is just below the brow of that hill behind those trees. l^ere is the School work shop, equipped with a machine-shop, electrical, drafting, Chemical equipment. It also has huge gym rooms. 1*11 het you'd never guess what that beautiful building over there is. The community centre or Palace of Culture? No, wi'ong. Its tjie town baths and steambath. They frown now on that type of construction. Its exces sively decorative and expensive. When I first saw it, I thought it was the town Opera-house or at least a theatre. ^ No, there is the Community Club theatre to the right. It's not too ugly either, though of later construction. But it is too small for the town. Why you ask. Don't they pian things ^lere. That is just it. They do. There is going to be a large new Palace of Culture up here on this hill, right behind us. You don't believe it. Weil I do. I-ve seen so much happen in these three years. But first they are taking care of the bread, the cake will come later. But there are biscuits akeady. That building just afront and to the right of the Club is the town Sports Centre. Reallywell equipped too. And right over it to the left you'll see the stadium. Class, eh? It miit finished when we got here, and it wäs äll done by voluntary work (beeSj as we'd call them) we also have left some small marks in its make-up. By the way, two years ägo/' when it vas. completed and they held the first Summer Sports Rally. I took part and got third piace In dicus. Yöu say its ali pretty nice in this bright northern sun. Brother, you äint seen nothing yet. Come some frösty Winter moming when these light-coloured buildings are ali glis-tening with frostmstals and you'll see a fairyland.; And of course äll that landscaping helps to please tlie eye at any time. Now, over to the right still fur-ther. See the water there between those evergreens. Thafs a little lake. Translated its name would be Gamp Lake. Because if you look closely into those trees on the other side, you*ll see some buildings. They are the Children*s äummer Camp. The lake itself is nature's gift to man. Its small and its shallow. Two warm days in spring and its fuU of squirming, squeeling, two-armed, two-legged critters. Without lakes like that there would be mighty little swimming tliis far north (unless they built pools, and still ä pool is never quite the same as a real honest-to-gosh lake.) And on this side of the lake is a beautiful man made sand beach for the older follcs. You can't see it from here for these trees, but you can take my Word for it, it's a busy spot during the summer's unbusy periods. • (To be continued) Port Arthurin kuulumisia KUULUISIA SKANDINA AVIALAI8IA i i IH^kiAi A POMAGNE.

Hipe Spriigs Eteroil 91 Editorial Hope springs eternal in the human breast! Years have gone by since the first YouthSection of the Vapaus, was published—many, many years. Since then the Vapaus whichwas originally established as a means of Communication and enlightenment for the Finnish immigrant population, has gone through a variety of stages—ups and downs. .•: The English section dedicated to the o'f f spring of these immigrant workers has also seen similar variations in its lot. There havie been times when the youth of our country was busily engaged in other activities and did not have time for such "mundane" matters as the enlivenment of that section of this paper that was published for their exclusive use. We might even call that the "lost" generatioh as far as the paper was concerned. ' But now, as we have already stated, hope springs eternal . . . and there is definite proof that our stand (that the tide will turn and the offspring of our immigrant fathers will once again^^turn to the Vapaus to use it for their own benefit and interests) vi^ill in ali likelyhood be vindicated._j::; We are particularly pleased by the f act that the number of our correspondents has grown and that the items they have submitted prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that there is a definite trend tovv^ards more activity in sports and other cultural fields. In > Short, we have great faith in the coming gener?ition. Lets just have more of it! YRITYS AO MEMBERS PREPARING FOR THEIR ANNUAL CONCERT Toronto. — Don Hall is a beehive of activity these days. By the time this appears in print the rehearsals and performances of the Inspector General (for which we hope to haVe a critical analysis in Club Neyvs) will have been completed; Nonetheless the hali will remain a busy place becäuse preparations are being made för the Yritys A.C. annual concert and cabaret dance, scheduled for the weekend of Mar. 17—18. This will be the highlight of the winter's activities so far as "Yritys is concerned. Festivities get under way with a c^haret dance on Saturday, March 16, 9-^12 pm. For the early birds the refreshment bar will open at 8. Feature of the evening will be a floor show based on either a Ha-waiian or Jamaican theme. This is being arranged by womens' gym instructor Dolores Niskanen. So come and dance to the tunefui music of the Annikki Vickman trio. The other two members of this neat coinbo are Mervin and Melvin Manninen. Sunday, March 17 at 4 p.m. is the date and time of the Yritys Annual Concert. This year will be the 57th birthday of Yritys. Guest performers will be the Slovak folk dance group. One of the main attractionswiIl be a big dance production by the Yritys *Rromen called "Finlandia in Abstraot." This is being done in modern dance form and will be of some six minutes duration. Other concert humbers by the Yritys wo-men will include a folk dance, a gay carousel waltz, as well as gym numbers. There will be some child-rens' program and vocal\and .in-strumentai -solos. It is' certafnly'' shaping upto be a very complete and well-balapced concert program. AU riiembers, former members and friends in the Toronto area are cordially asked to come to both the dance and.concerti We also take this opportunity of inviting those members who have dropped out of our club activities to come back into the f Old, and as always, new members are most welcome. Because the Suurjuhlas are in Toronto this year, there will be lots of work for every-one, new and old members alike. Also on the Yritys agenda is the preparation of one and possibly two, one-act plays in English for the competitions in Sudbury Easter weekend. — E. M. F. S. It is good to see new people writing to Club News from the Sudbury-Whitefish area. Lets ex-pand it so that people from ali Liitto clubs write in regularly. This will make Club News ali the more interesting. We are also look-ing forward to reading the series just begun by Jim Tuori.— E. Sudbury Youth Have Many Irons in Fire; AdivHy Has Shown HaM Increase Sudbury.— Weil, here we are again, and we hope to have sorae-one from the club contribute something in this column each week, recounting our activities. Last Thursday we had a hectic time, but fun, playing Dodge the Ball (it's good for the figure) for about an hour. Then we had fif-teen minutes of warm ups, though I think everyone was pretty well warmed up from dodging around the hali earlier. This was followed'by a brief meeting during which it was decided that ä 10c admission fee will be eharged and that this money will be used to buy shields for the Windows SO that we can start playing basketball. The finishing touches were also put on the Alerts & Visa A.C. Toboggan party. It was short no-tice, granted, but T was really sur-prised to see the number of kids who were out to enjoy themselves, big and little alike. It was held at the Wanup Hall on Sunday af-ternoon, March 2nd. I think everyone had toboggans, skis or flying saucers, and some of the giris even had big sheets of cardboard with which to slide down that steep hill that is a preli^e to the finish line on the ski trail. They claim it wasn't really good sliding wea-ther, but 1 don't know. When I was coming down one of the ski hills, one of my skis must have figured the skiing conditions per-fect because it took of f on its own accord and left me sitting near the top of the hill to watch it glide gracefuUy down. RIGHT to the bottom. One consolation, the wea-ther was the best, nice and sunny and warm, but the snow was wet. (I know.) . — We had a record player going ali afternoon and everyone had an enjoyable time doing the twist, poika, waltz schottische, and pony (eh?) Yes, it's a dance. Oh well... There was plenty of hot coffee and hot dogs for the slightly wet sliders and skiers when they came in. Like to thank Visa A.C. for the cake and milk that was donated. Also many thanks to the adults who were out to give us a hand and Special thanks to Astrid Salo who warmed up the hali for us and kept the cof fee hot ali afternoon. (Won*t say anything to the girls in the kitöhen though, that was ex-pected of them but the service wa5 good.)

Whitefish. — One of the greatest pastimes of our age is sports. Sports act as a social and cultural link be-tween the nations of the world. Many sports began in the back-woods of pioneer days, and today they may wellbe a national pas-time. In Its beginnings sports offer-ed an outlet in which to enjoy one-self; Everyone participated for the sheer spillsand thrills of recreation-al overtones. No one ever thought of adopting sports as work or as a means of support. However, today, many look upon sports an an active way of' life, as a basic 'job.' The days have long passed since the era in which everyone went out to play baseball, hockey, etc. Today we are content with sitting back and watching the games frim the sidelines. The fact that Joe Blow is playing for such and such a team is insignificant. Instead we are out to see the real professionals of sports such as Mickey Mantle, Frank Mahovolich Arnold Palmer to name but a few. These are the professionals. To most of them sports are a means of life. Sports give them a joh with a timely income and for professionals usually a handsome income. No longer do we go down to the arena to see John Smith's BuUdogs take on the ever. strong hockey team of the Lazy Lou Gang, no, instead we go out to see the fa-bu^ ous 50 "goal scorer increase his prestige over the fans by scoring three. or four more goals. He is" a Professional. In ali sports, the re-action is the same. Professionalism is the key to sports, some say. But, let us take a serious look at the advantages (if any) and the disadvantages of j)rofessionalism in sports. Professionalism offers but two things to the sports minded person, money and prestige. Many people entering sports today do so because of the great f inancial status which usually adorns professionalism. To single out but one example, a hocTcey player on becoming Professional may make upwards to $30,000 per year. A baseball player can go ashigh as $100,000 per year, and SO on. However^ these substan-tial yearly incomes are ;the basic pitfalls to sports. A person who enters sports for its pecuniary va-lues only, lack the drive and initia-tive to succeed. What does he or she care if they lose a game or match as long as they receive thfeir yearly income. Their drive to win has been somewhat dampered down in favour of taking it easy and rolling in easy money as it seems. Secondly^ prestige may also be ä' pitfall to sports. As soon as a person has become a sports celebrity. the same person may develop a feeling of superiörity over ali otlier participants. Would you or I think of stepping into a ring with Sonny Liston just for a bit of enjoynfcnt in sports. He has a name for hiin-self. I mean to say as ridiculous as, this example may appear, it is true. Professionalism also acts as a pitfall to brilliant young students who can succeed at university; Today many students drop out öf school sports, minor hockey leagues, ama-teur baseball leagues, just to become professionals; But is it not the smaller leagues, teams, school sports etc, that form the hasis of our sports of today? What are we to do when everyone is becoming Professional? Do we drop ali other forms of sports? ••:/•.• •."-—•r Professionalism leads to "snobl>- ism" and * hero-worshipping." This definitely should not be. Sports should remain on a leveleven with the average person. Professionalism has very few advantages. AU a Professional sport does is "pack in the crowds.'; It is iae arenas, the football and baseball fields etc, that benefit directly from pi-ofessionalism and this benefit is financial only. Gamblers are having a field day in Professional sports, bookies are having a good inin at the country's finances. So, in actuality, we are paying dearly for Professional sports. We pay for ad-mittance and we also make a wage on the side; Indirectly professionalism in sports has lead to a gambling racket. — P.S. What do the others think? — J.P. no gym practice next Thursday night, March 14th. We're not giving you any excuse not to study and maybe flunk. Good luck in the exams to ali of you. We would like to see ali of you and more this thursday night at 7 p.m. An executive wni be elected, soaU the more reason to come. We need a treasurer anyway, because we're on our way to one window shield. We didn't expect to make any money at our tobbggan party exce|)t to cover expemses, but we did. See, its a start. We'U only be going for an hour or so to-night for the benefit of those that have to study for Friday's exam. -^One more reminder: Bring aU your ideäs for our concert coming up in May. Remember, it's going to be your night, and we'd better get something down on paper this week already, so we can start rehearsing right after the exams. We have the talent, SO lefs get the show on the road and prove it. See you ali tonight. P.S. — please wear your running shoes or sneakers. —' Joan.

Tliere is the kindergarden and the town- park right behind it, See the decorated gate. Here in front of us is one of the schools. The other is just below the brow of that hill behind those trees. l^ere is the School work shop, equipped with a machine-shop, electrical, drafting, Chemical equipment. It also has huge gym rooms. 1*11 het you'd never guess what that beautiful building over there is. The community centre or Palace of Culture? No, wi'ong. Its tjie town baths and steambath. They frown now on that type of construction. Its exces sively decorative and expensive. When I first saw it, I thought it was the town Opera-house or at least a theatre. ^ No, there is the Community Club theatre to the right. It's not too ugly either, though of later construction. But it is too small for the town. Why you ask. Don't they pian things ^lere. That is just it. They do. There is going to be a large new Palace of Culture up here on this hill, right behind us. You don't believe it. Weil I do. I-ve seen so much happen in these three years. But first they are taking care of the bread, the cake will come later. But there are biscuits akeady. That building just afront and to the right of the Club is the town Sports Centre. Reallywell equipped too. And right over it to the left you'll see the stadium. Class, eh? It miit finished when we got here, and it wäs äll done by voluntary work (beeSj as we'd call them) we also have left some small marks in its make-up.

Come some frösty Winter moming when these light-coloured buildings are ali glis-tening with frostmstals and you'll see a fairyland.; And of course äll that landscaping helps to please tlie eye at any time. Now, over to the right still fur-ther. See the water there between those evergreens. Thafs a little lake. Translated its name would be Gamp Lake. Because if you look closely into those trees on the other side, you*ll see some buildings. They are the Children*s äummer Camp. The lake itself is nature's gift to man. Its small and its shallow. Two warm days in spring and its fuU of squirming, squeeling, two-armed, two-legged critters. Without lakes like that there would be mighty little swimming tliis far north (unless they built pools, and still ä pool is never quite the same as a real honest-to-gosh lake.) And on this side of the lake is a beautiful man made sand beach for the older follcs. You can't see it from here for these trees, but you can take my Word for it, it's a busy spot during the summer's unbusy periods. • (To be continued) Port Arthurin kuulumisia KUULUISIA SKANDINA AVIALAI8IA i i IH^kiAi A POMAGNE.

We might even call that the "lost" generatioh as far as the paper was concerned. ' But now, as we have already stated, hope springs eternal . . . and there is definite proof that our stand (that the tide will turn and the offspring of our immigrant fathers will once again^^turn to the Vapaus to use it for their own benefit and interests) vi^ill in ali likelyhood be vindicated._j::; We are particularly pleased by the f act that the number of our correspondents has grown and that the items they have submitted prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that there is a definite trend tovv^ards more activity in sports and other cultural fields.

By the time this appears in print the rehearsals and performances of the Inspector General (for which we hope to haVe a critical analysis in Club Neyvs) will have been completed; Nonetheless the hali will remain a busy place becäuse preparations are being made för the Yritys A.C. annual concert and cabaret dance, scheduled for the weekend of Mar. 17—18. This will be the highlight of the winter's activities so far as "Yritys is concerned. Festivities get under way with a c^haret dance on Saturday, March 16, 9-^12 pm. For the early birds the refreshment bar will open at 8. Feature of the evening will be a floor show based on either a Ha-waiian or Jamaican theme. This is being arranged by womens' gym instructor Dolores Niskanen. So come and dance to the tunefui music of the Annikki Vickman trio. The other two members of this neat coinbo are Mervin and Melvin Manninen. Sunday, March 17 at 4 p.m. is the date and time of the Yritys Annual Concert. This year will be the 57th birthday of Yritys. Guest performers will be the Slovak folk dance group. One of the main attractionswiIl be a big dance production by the Yritys *Rromen called "Finlandia in Abstraot." This is being done in modern dance form and will be of some six minutes duration. Other concert humbers by the Yritys wo-men will include a folk dance, a gay carousel waltz, as well as gym numbers. There will be some child-rens' program and vocal\and .in-strumentai -solos. It is' certafnly'' shaping upto be a very complete and well-balapced concert program. AU riiembers, former members and friends in the Toronto area are cordially asked to come to both the dance and.concerti We also take this opportunity of inviting those members who have dropped out of our club activities to come back into the f Old, and as always, new members are most welcome. Because the Suurjuhlas are in Toronto this year, there will be lots of work for every-one, new and old members alike. Also on the Yritys agenda is the preparation of one and possibly two, one-act plays in English for the competitions in Sudbury Easter weekend. — E. M. F. S. It is good to see new people writing to Club News from the Sudbury-Whitefish area. Lets ex-pand it so that people from ali Liitto clubs write in regularly.

Sudbury Youth Have Many Irons in Fire; AdivHy Has Shown HaM Increase Sudbury.— Weil, here we are again, and we hope to have sorae-one from the club contribute something in this column each week, recounting our activities. Last Thursday we had a hectic time, but fun, playing Dodge the Ball (it's good for the figure) for about an hour. Then we had fif-teen minutes of warm ups, though I think everyone was pretty well warmed up from dodging around the hali earlier. This was followed'by a brief meeting during which it was decided that ä 10c admission fee will be eharged and that this money will be used to buy shields for the Windows SO that we can start playing basketball. The finishing touches were also put on the Alerts & Visa A.C. Toboggan party. It was short no-tice, granted, but T was really sur-prised to see the number of kids who were out to enjoy themselves, big and little alike. It was held at the Wanup Hall on Sunday af-ternoon, March 2nd. I think everyone had toboggans, skis or flying saucers, and some of the giris even had big sheets of cardboard with which to slide down that steep hill that is a preli^e to the finish line on the ski trail. They claim it wasn't really good sliding wea-ther, but 1 don't know. When I was coming down one of the ski hills, one of my skis must have figured the skiing conditions per-fect because it took of f on its own accord and left me sitting near the top of the hill to watch it glide gracefuUy down. RIGHT to the bottom. One consolation, the wea-ther was the best, nice and sunny and warm, but the snow was wet. (I know.) . — We had a record player going ali afternoon and everyone had an enjoyable time doing the twist, poika, waltz schottische, and pony (eh?) Yes, it's a dance. Oh well... There was plenty of hot coffee and hot dogs for the slightly wet sliders and skiers when they came in. Like to thank Visa A.C. for the cake and milk that was donated. Also many thanks to the adults who were out to give us a hand and Special thanks to Astrid Salo who warmed up the hali for us and kept the cof fee hot ali afternoon. (Won*t say anything to the girls in the kitöhen though, that was ex-pected of them but the service wa5 good.)

Whitefish. — One of the greatest pastimes of our age is sports. Sports act as a social and cultural link be-tween the nations of the world. Many sports began in the back-woods of pioneer days, and today they may wellbe a national pas-time. In Its beginnings sports offer-ed an outlet in which to enjoy one-self; Everyone participated for the sheer spillsand thrills of recreation-al overtones. No one ever thought of adopting sports as work or as a means of support. However, today, many look upon sports an an active way of' life, as a basic 'job.' The days have long passed since the era in which everyone went out to play baseball, hockey, etc. Today we are content with sitting back and watching the games frim the sidelines. The fact that Joe Blow is playing for such and such a team is insignificant. Instead we are out to see the real professionals of sports such as Mickey Mantle, Frank Mahovolich Arnold Palmer to name but a few. These are the professionals. To most of them sports are a means of life. Sports give them a joh with a timely income and for professionals usually a handsome income. No longer do we go down to the arena to see John Smith's BuUdogs take on the ever. strong hockey team of the Lazy Lou Gang, no, instead we go out to see the fa-bu^ ous 50 "goal scorer increase his prestige over the fans by scoring three. or four more goals. He is" a Professional. In ali sports, the re-action is the same. Professionalism is the key to sports, some say. But, let us take a serious look at the advantages (if any) and the disadvantages of j)rofessionalism in sports. Professionalism offers but two things to the sports minded person, money and prestige. Many people entering sports today do so because of the great f inancial status which usually adorns professionalism. To single out but one example, a hocTcey player on becoming Professional may make upwards to $30,000 per year. A baseball player can go ashigh as $100,000 per year, and SO on. However^ these substan-tial yearly incomes are ;the basic pitfalls to sports. A person who enters sports for its pecuniary va-lues only, lack the drive and initia-tive to succeed. What does he or she care if they lose a game or match as long as they receive thfeir yearly income. Their drive to win has been somewhat dampered down in favour of taking it easy and rolling in easy money as it seems. Secondly^ prestige may also be ä' pitfall to sports. As soon as a person has become a sports celebrity. the same person may develop a feeling of superiörity over ali otlier participants. Would you or I think of stepping into a ring with Sonny Liston just for a bit of enjoynfcnt in sports. He has a name for hiin-self. I mean to say as ridiculous as, this example may appear, it is true. Professionalism also acts as a pitfall to brilliant young students who can succeed at university; Today many students drop out öf school sports, minor hockey leagues, ama-teur baseball leagues, just to become professionals; But is it not the smaller leagues, teams, school sports etc, that form the hasis of our sports of today? What are we to do when everyone is becoming Professional? Do we drop ali other forms of sports? ••:/•.• •."-—•r Professionalism leads to "snobl>- ism" and * hero-worshipping." This definitely should not be. Sports should remain on a leveleven with the average person. Professionalism has very few advantages. AU a Professional sport does is "pack in the crowds.'; It is iae arenas, the football and baseball fields etc, that benefit directly from pi-ofessionalism and this benefit is financial only. Gamblers are having a field day in Professional sports, bookies are having a good inin at the country's finances. So, in actuality, we are paying dearly for Professional sports. We pay for ad-mittance and we also make a wage on the side; Indirectly professionalism in sports has lead to a gambling racket. — P.S. What do the others think? — J.P. no gym practice next Thursday night, March 14th. We're not giving you any excuse not to study and maybe flunk. Good luck in the exams to ali of you. We would like to see ali of you and more this thursday night at 7 p.m. An executive wni be elected, soaU the more reason to come. We need a treasurer anyway, because we're on our way to one window shield. We didn't expect to make any money at our tobbggan party exce|)t to cover expemses, but we did. See, its a start. We'U only be going for an hour or so to-night for the benefit of those that have to study for Friday's exam. -^One more reminder: Bring aU your ideäs for our concert coming up in May. Remember, it's going to be your night, and we'd better get something down on paper this week already, so we can start rehearsing right after the exams. We have the talent, SO lefs get the show on the road and prove it. See you ali tonight. P.S. — please wear your running shoes or sneakers. —' Joan.
