Dave Price talks to Floyd Patterson, 22, the youngest boxer to ever become heavweight world champion. Patterson, who is visiting Toronto for a sportswriters' dinner, talks about his recent championship and his plans to defend it. Gordon Sinclair follows with the third episode of his biography and his visit to Russia in the late 1940s for the Toronto Star; the best story he ever wrote (about the sinking of the Graf Spee, a German pocket battleship). Closing the segment is a report on Frontier College, Saint John, New Brunswick, where students with special skills in Mathematics and English, learn how to work with the "common labourer" in Canada's wilderness. In turn, these students teach their special skills to labourers. <1h>Language:English -
