Bombers face lean year as CFL losses loom
Winnipeg's CFL club, despite selling more season tickets in 1962, faced a cash crunch with a 404000 dollar loss and weak bank fortunes. Rural Manitoba helped boost attendance, with up to 700 rural fans per game adding about 80000 dollars over 10 games. The team plans four Friday home games before Labor Day with a 730 kickoff to attract lakeside cottagers, while GM Paul Robson vows a competitive squad and aggressive marketing. If losses repeat, the 1985 outlook could be dire.

Reggies Ramblings on wrongs and doppelganger humor
In a St. Regis Hotel Tavern exchange a speaker urges not to fear admitting mistakes and learning from them. A German term doppelganger is used to describe someone who looks like you. The remark ends with a blunt reminder that the world may owe you a living but it won’t pay off until you earn it.
