Earl CAMERON, 89, voice of the National
News anchor retired in 1976
Was announcer at Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for 32 years
By Jim BAWDEN,
Television
Columnist,
Page
A18
Earl CAMERON was often called Canada's best-known anonymous man.
The onetime warehouse worker from Moose Jaw became Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation's "
Voice of Doom" when he replaced Lorne
GREENE on
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's national radio news in the
late 1940s and Larry
HENDERSON on The National in 1959.
CAMERON, 89, one of only seven men to anchor The National, died
Thursday in Royal Victoria Hospital in Barrie after a lengthy
illness.
Over the years,
CAMERON's uncanny resemblance to the mythical
"man-in-the-street" Canadian made him a well-respected television
figure. Television critic Bob
BLACKBURN wrote in 1965: "
CAMERON
is not just the image of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation news,
he is the cultivated image of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
itself: solid, patriarchal, Gibraltary!"
CAMERON took early retirement from Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
in 1976, at age 61 and after 32 years with the corporation. Throughout
his Canadian Broadcasting Corporation career, he had always been
officially a staff announcer. He remained one of the regular
newsreaders on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Radio's The
World At Six but had become disappointed over his decreasing
role on Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Television.
On his last day, he simply dropped off a note for his department
head and left for Florida. That was in keeping with a man who
was typically "quiet, not ostentatious" said CTV anchor Lloyd
ROBERTSON, who knew
CAMERON from his early days at Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation.
"I came to Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in 1954 and we were
required to do it all. A typical day for Earl involved reading
weather on radio, then hosting a radio jazz show, doing station
breaks, too. At 9: 30 he'd stroll over to Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation News' studio to begin script rehearsals for The National,
which went live at 11 p.m. He had to do it all, and he did so
calmly, rarely making a mistake. We were required to memorize
the pronunciation of difficult names and foreign words, and Earl
made it all seem very natural."
Born in 1915,
CAMERON ran the gamut of business training and
normal school in his Moose Jaw hometown. Local radio station
CHAB hired him as a summer replacement at $20 a month.
CAMERON said in 1966 that,1" got the best advice ever from my
first boss. He explained to me I was reading for just one person.
He said to go into a house, and you'll find one person listening
to a radio. Try to talk to just this one person."
CAMERON later moved to Winnipeg radio station
CKY for a year,
and in 1944 joined Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Radio in
Toronto, from which he rose to top anchor status.
In 1965 Canadian Broadcasting Corporation executives began publicly
grumbling that
CAMERON was doing too many outside commercials.
His association with Rambler cars and Crest toothpaste, though
allowed by the union contract, was unseemly for the voice of
The National, they said. Under intense pressure, he ended his
lucrative contracts.
His television star went into eclipse the next year, when he
was replaced as headliner of The National by Stanley
BURK/BURKE.
There▲ was never any doubt about
CAMERON's announcing abilities
his reading was impeccable, but it was the system that was at
issue. He was dropped in an effort to break the union jurisdiction
which dictated that newsmen could write the scripts but announcers
could only read it on air.
Television critic Dennis
BRAITHWAITE wrote at the time: "The
national news didn't make Earl
CAMERON. He made the national
news."
CAMERON did not mention his departure on air. For his last broadcast
as announcer he simply said, "Now this is Earl
CAMERON, saying
goodnight for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Television News."
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation offered him a job as host of
the public affairs series Viewpoint, reading viewers' letters,
but that show was canned in 1976 after an 18-year run.
Retired, CAMERON moved his family to LeFroy, on Lake Simcoe.
He did commercials for American Motors and Krona margarine, golfed
daily and watched Global's 6 p.m. news.
His retirement didn't stop
SCTV from satirizing him and Lloyd
ROBERTSON as duelling, argumentative anchors Earl Camembert and
Floyd
Robertson in skits
CAMERON liked because "in this business
a little publicity always helps."
CAMERON leaves his wife, Patty; son, Hal; and three grandchildren.

Reginald 'Red'
HORNER, National Hockey League Hockey Player:
The bad-boy captain of the prewar Toronto Maple Leafs shared
the ice with such legends of defence as 'King'
CLANCY and established
a record for penalties that stood for 20 years
By James CHRISTIE,
Friday,
April 29, 2005, Page S7
The night of December 13, 1933, was a landmark night in the history
of the National Hockey League. The career of Toronto Maple Leaf
Irwin (Ace)
BAILEY was ended with a life-threatening head injury
suffered when he crashed to the ice following a hard check by
Boston
Bruins'
Eddie
SHORE.
What is not always mentioned is the fact that Mr.
BAILEY was
not the only man carried off the ice at Boston Garden that night.
He had an avenger, a flame-haired bad boy named "Red"
HORNER,
the prototype of hockey's "policeman."
Red HORNER was the oldest Toronto Maple Leaf captain and oldest
living member of the Hockey Hall of Fame. Red
HORNER embodied
Toronto Maple Leaf history. He was on the ice for the very first
shift played at Maple Leaf Gardens in 1931 and was involved in
ceremonies at the closing of the Gardens on February 13, 1999.
On the dangerous night in Boston Garden, Mr.
BAILEY recalled
in a 1985 interview with The Globe and Mail's Paul
PATTON that
"SHORE took my feet from under me. I wasn't facing him and when
I fell, my head hit the ice and I went into convulsions.
"SHORE was standing over at the other side of the rink when Red
went over and said, 'Put up your hands, I'm going to hit you.'
And HORNER did. One punch was all he needed. The boys told me
afterwards that they carried
SHORE out feet first, just moments
after they carried me out, and they needed seven stitches to
sew him up."
While Ace BAILEY was still unconscious and recovering from surgery
done at Boston City Hospital to relieve pressure on his brain,
"My dad went to Boston and he checked into the Copley Plaza hotel
because he knew that was where Conn
SMYTHE (the Leaf manager)
was staying. He had a.45 revolver with him and wanted to know
where he could find
SHORE.
SMYTHE said, 'Let's go up to my room
and have a chat.'
SMYTHE got two of the hotel policemen to come
up, and they must have slipped dad a couple of mickeys.
SMYTHE
put him on the train back to Toronto and Dad didn't wake up until
he was back in Canada. Two weeks later, he got his gun back through
the mail."
Fortunately, Red
HORNER was all the avenger the Toronto Maple
Leafs needed most nights during his 12-year career. Hockey feuds
were serious matters and Mr.
HORNER was hockey's version of the
blunt instrument.
"Red" HORNER was born in a small rural community near Brantford,
Ontario He was the
son of a farmer. The
HORNER family moved first
to Ancaster, where he started school, then to Hamilton and eventually
to Toronto. He was playing bantam hockey with North Toronto by
his early teens, living with his half-brother who was a grocer,
and his wife.
He was one of 72 players trying out for Frank
SELKE's
Marlboro
juniors in 1926 and although young Red did not distinguish himself
in that first practice, Mr.
SELKE felt that he would be as patient
as possible with him. The fact that Red was Mr.
SELKE's grocery
boy didn't hurt his chances.
Leafs founder Conn
SMYTHE was a builder and well acquainted with
Mr. SELKE, who was business manager of the electrical union.
Mr. SELKE's autobiography recounts how Mr.
SMYTHE was tiring
of his Leafs being manhandled by the likes of the Montreal Maroons
but couldn't pry any strong physical talents away from other
National Hockey League teams.
Mr. SELKE's suggested solution was for Mr.
SMYTHE to unload his
vulnerable veterans and fill the lineup with robust kids from
the Marlboros. Red
HORNER made his National Hockey League debut
on Saturday, December 22, 1928. He had already played a Friday
night game with the Marlboro juniors and a Saturday afternoon
match with a senior team when he was informed he'd be suiting
up as a Toronto Maple Leaf that night at Arena Gardens on Mutual
Street, the predecessor of Maple Leaf Gardens.
In a 2003 interview with the Internet site legendsofhockey.net,
he recalled his debut: "He said, 'I'll tell ya what I'm gonna
do. I'll pay you $2,500 for the balance of the season.' I thought
about it and it sounded pretty good because I was making $25
a week as a clerk at the Standard Stock Exchange.
"I said, 'Well Mr.
SMYTHE,
I've only seen two pro games in my
life before, I don't know any of your players, I haven't a car
but if you'd like to pick me up and take me down tonight, I'll
take you and introduce you to my mother and father.'
"He said, 'That's a deal,' and we shook hands on it. No signing
or anything, just a handshake."
He was not a graceful skater but could move the puck quickly
and possessed a gift for concentration under pressure. He could
make a pinpoint pass while two forecheckers were zeroing in on
him.
His tough, physical style of play earned him the league leadership
in penalty minutes for eight of his 12 National Hockey League
seasons. He set a record for penalties that lasted 20 years.
Mr. SMYTHE dispatched Mr.
HORNER to a summer camp to work out
and to put on weight in the summer of 1931. He was trained by
Olympic pole-vaulter Ed
ARCHIBALD. By the end of the summer,
Mr. HORNER had gone from a soft 180 pounds to a solid 190.
In 1932, he was on a Stanley Cup winner with Toronto. For seven
of his seasons, he played alongside another Toronto legend on
defence, Francis Michael (King)
CLANCY.
Mr.
HORNER played his
entire career with the Maple Leafs and served as team captain
from 1938 until his retirement in 1940. In 490 regular season
games, he scored 42 goals and added 110 assists for 152 points.
But his scoring statistics pale beside the fact he collected
1,264 penalty minutes during that time. He once collected 17
penalty minutes in the first 20-minute period of a game.
The scuffles didn't end when he retired as a player. Mr.
HORNER,
like Mr. CLANCY, turned to officiating and was an National Hockey
League linesman for two seasons. On January 11, 1943, at Maple
Leaf Gardens, he was working a game between the Maple Leafs and
Detroit
Red
Wings when Detroit manager Jack
ADAM/ADAMS berated him,
alleging he had missed an icing call. Later in the game, Mr.
HORNER lined up for a faceoff near the Detroit bench and Mr.
ADAM/ADAMS reached out and shoved him, claiming he was blocking the
view. Mr. HORNER swung around with an elbow that grazed his chin.
Mr. ADAM/ADAMS shoved him again. Detroit player Syd
ABEL took a swing
at Mr. HORNER, who shoved Mr.
ADAM/ADAMS hard before referee Bill
CHADWICK stepped in.
Mr. HORNER went on to a business career managing North American
Coal in Cleveland, Ohio, where he was the majority owner.
George
Reginald
(Red)
HORNER was born in Lynden, Ontario, on
May 28, 1909. He died in Toronto on April 27, 2005. He was 95.
He was predeceased by his wife.

Passed away peacefully after a brief illness, at Mississauga
Trillium Hospital, Sunday, November 6, 2005. Our heartfelt thank
you to the compassionate and caring nursing staff and doctors
who added such comfort in Mom's final days. Mom cherished her
family life in Applewood Acres and Bass Lake with her late husband
Bob and is survived by her son Chad and beloved daughter-in-law
Carole. Gramma J. will be missed by her two little darlings,
Robert and Katie. Special thanks to the daughters she never had,
who were always willing to step in to help out, Norma Sue, Elaine,
Bonnie and
to Uncle Robb for all his support. Dear sister of
Leonard CHADWICK
(Denise) and the Chadwick nieces and nephews,
Stephen, Suzanne, Scott, Michelle and Marc. Predeceased by brother
Eric (Win) and lovingly remembered by Richard, Jan, Allison,

at gatherings with family and Friends was always ready with her
political ammunition to engage anyone in debate. She remained
independent to the end and enjoyed her years at Westminster Court,
Mississauga. At Mom's request we will be having a private gathering
with family and Friends to celebrate her life this weekend. A
donation to the Ontario Lung Association in Marjorie's name would
be appreciated because "When you can't breathe nothing else matters."
