Imlach is one of those rare breeds in. professional sport who makes a reporter's task somewhat easier with his straight answers and honest phraseologies. He will offer a few standard "no comments" when discussing a question posed him by a member of the press corps. However, Punch will elaborate on the question "off the record." To tell a reporter something off the record doesn't detract from a story. This allows the typewriter slave to ask various other contacts many pertinent questions using the informa- tion he acquired off the rec- ord. A small amount of tact and a heap of intelligent dig- ging will always produce a readable story or column. Canadian sportswriters have been fortunate through the years to be blessed with Im- lach types who will give out clues and leave the detective work to the questioners. And often a reporter will stumble across a better story than he was originally seeking. The greatest asset any repor- ter can have when he is on the prowl for copy is to have com- plete trust in his source, and also, his sources must have faith in the scribe. These two intangibles make for excellent relationships between two pro- fessionals and keeps the knot of friendship taunt. There have been instances where a reporter will betray his source of information and reveal an item to the public which he should have kept locked in a drawer. Granted, the reporter comes through with a scoop on his rival pap- ers, but he is taboo from that point on not only by his infor- mation sources, but also from his fellow reporters. A legiti- mate scoop by any individual through hard work gains re- spect from his newspaper ri- vals. Breaking faith results in silence and disdain for the traitor by everyone connected with the job; including his edi- tor and colleagues who realize that his underhanded maneou- a aciamueshsp canes etic t Pt CA DOA TELL OTT vre will undoubtedly cost the newspaper many top stories in the weeks to come. Reporters who eat and sleep with a team in sports during the season are almost regarded as members by exec- utive, coaches and players. Na- turally the reporter is aware of almost everything which goes on with the team. Certain items are to be kept from the public on orders from team management. Perhaps the most important piece of information to be kept from the public spotlight is a story on injuries. Not the kind which occur at a public prac- tice or in a game, although these can usually be under- played by the club's publicist. The injuries which are to be kept quiet are ones which hap- pen without the public being aware. An example would be if a goalie broke a finger on his stick hand, but didn't allow it to affect his performance dur- ing the rest of the game or practice, why should it 'be made public? A _ reporter would be told of the injury with a warning to keep it quiet so the opposing club would not attempt to take advantage of it by shooting the puck on his stick side. Perhaps some people may feel they are being told only what the various clubs want them to know. This is partially true, but eventually all the facts will be made known. The fans are never kept in the dark for a long period of time as the teams allow reporters to break a story when the time is right or the injury sufficiently healed. I remember a few years ago when I first met Imlach at a supermarket store where he was presenting the top prize in a contest. I was looking for a story about his Leafs who were heading into the finals of the Stanley Cup playoffs with the Montreal Canadiens. I asked him a direct ques- tion about his team and he replied: "You write it the way you want but don't get me into trouble." As Adam Clayton Powell would say: "Keep the faith, baby."
