Toronto's 1934 Soccer-less Centennial
Who said curling isn't cool? Look at this guy!
So, I had this wonderful idea of finding some soccer-related story from the March 6th and 7th, 1934
editions of The Globe (when, 75 years ago, Torontonians marked the city's centennial) to celebrate
Toronto's 175th birthday yesterday. Lo and behold, not much of any local soccer was being played,
or if it was, it wasn't newsworthy—the big news that day was Toronto Maple Leafs
"centreman" Joe Primeau's league goal tally surpassing that of his nearest rival, Frank
Boucher of the New York Rangers.
