He played a season with the B.C. Lions when they were first organized and with the Edmonton Eskimos until knee injuries side-lined him. He began trap shooting in the 1950s and excelled in this sport; winning the B.C. Championship twice, as well as titles in the United States. He worked 20 years for Swift's Meats in Vancouver. He accepted a position with the IWA, then went on to become a representative for the Canadian Labour Congress.[2]
