= THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, JANUARY 17, 1948 PAGE TWELVE PORT NAPSHOTS Oshawa hockey fans get a rest tonight. There's no game locally scheduled in the Junior "A" circuit for today. Our Generals are tangling with the Toronto Young Rangers this afternoon at Maple Leaf Gardens in the second game of a Saturday doubleheader. In the first tilt, Barrie Flyers are right back at Marlboros and a lot hinges on the result of this game. St. Mike's are visiting Teepees tonight also and a glance at the standing shows that this is a great chance for Teepees to improve their bid for that coveted 6th place spot. Right now they are in 7th place, not very far behind Marlboros. Guelph Biltmores may not win tonight in Windsor but if they should upset the Spitfires, then things would be looking up. Barrie Flyers can move into 3rd place with a vic. tory this afternoon even if Galt Rockets do win at home tonight over ,BY Campbell Stratford Kroehlers, That game between Stratford and Galt tonight looks like the toss-up game of the day, although none of them are in the cinch class, If the Generals make the costly mistake of losing today, they're apt to find Barrie Flyers only one point behind them, when next they look at the standing. Sy * » The Generals have some hectic weeks ahead of them now before they conclude the schedule, Actually, so far the schedule has been fairly kind to the Generals but from here in, for the rest of the way, they'll have tough sledding. It's in this next three weeks we'll find out just how much the Generals have "got on the ball". On Tuesday night they go back to Maple Leat Gardens to play St. Mike's and on Thursday they are in Galt, playing Guelph Biltmores, Young Ran- gers come to Oshawa next Saturday night. The following week, Gen- erals play in Stratford and in Galt on successive nights, Monday and Tuesday (Ouch!) Then on the mext Saturday, Windsor Spitfires come to Oshawa. The following week, Oshawa plays in Barrie on Friday night and right back here on Saturday against Barrie again, Yep! that's a mighty tough schedule for the next three weeks and will be a real test on condition, staying power and "moxie". Ld » LJ = A glance over the writings of some of the Junior "A" scribes in Western Ontario reveals some interesting comments, this week. Roy Mason, manager of the Guelph Biltmores, is a little annoyed to learn that Silvio Bettio is back playing hockey with Boston Olympics, despite the C.A.H.A, ruling that he played in Guelph--or else, and that his transfer to the U.S, League was withheld. Clayton Browne is striving hard to point out that only a very unusual and very unfair proceduce at Galt Arena could have made Coach Art Jackson forget himself to the point of attacking Referee "Honey" Kuntz. St. Kitts are protesting the game, because they scored a goal as the bell sounded (they said, just after the bell but now it appears the clock wasn't working properly and the bell sounded too soon. Galt Rockets will have George Bercham back ready to play after a 3-week layoff with an injured knee and Wiggle Wylle will be back in action very shortly, maybe next week. Norm, Webster, who had his arm broken here, will be ready to go this next week also, . * * L 2 Galt's Laurie Brain didn't like the way Garlepy got away with continual arguing with Referee Dinty Moore, when Barrie played Guelph there, Up at St. Catharines, they're seriously thinking of putting a terrasso floor in their Arena, so that they can play indoor lacrosse there, this next summer--and shoot for the Mann Cup finals, being played in the East, this next year. Fans are throwing bottles up in Galt again and although the gendarmes are trying to make arrests, so far nobody has pointed out a gullty party. Nothing like a little court oase and a stiff fine to put a stop te that nonsense-- as was proven right here. And of course, Chick Appel of Stratford is in there punching his typewriter with both hands, In pointing out a few "good referees" he names Kenny Holmeshaw, "Red" Far- rell and "Squeak" Morrison of Oshawa, stating they rate as the best in the profession this season. However, it wouldn't be Chickie if he didn't point out that a lot of referees practically ask for trouble (such as many of them have been getting into lately) by their in- consistent calling. He toe has been campaigning for two referees for Junior "A" games and Ke would also have neutral timekeepers and goal-judges. On the latter, at least, we are entirely in accord. + + * The Mayer brothers were outstanding in last night's only Junior "A" contest. Gil Mayer came up with his third shutout for the Barrie Flyers as they dunked Marlboros 9-0 on Barrie ice. That win broke the tie with Galt Rockets for 3rd place and moved Barrie up within three points of Oshawa Generals. If they win again this afternoon over Marlies, they'll have two more points to add to their total. The loss meant that Marlboros stay in 6th place but they are only two points ahead of St. Catharines' Teepees and that's not good. "Frenchy" Mayer also starred in the win, with a couple of goals, while Gil St. Plerre scored .three times, to increase l§is Junior "A" scoring race lead. The more we see, the more we begin to think that Barrie Flyers--not Windsor Spitfires--will be the team to beat for the Junior "A" title, especially as far as the Generals are concerned, * * FUTURE GAMES--Junior "A" competion today sees Marlies entertaining Barrie in the first half of the Gardens twin bill, and Young Rangers playing host to Oshawa in the nightcap. St. Mikes play in St. Kitts, while Stratford is at Galt and Guelph plays at Windsor . . +. Junior "B" play Monday will put Orono at Oshawa in the first half of a doubleheader, and Whitby at Byers Motors in the last half. The second game should be the big game of the night as the first place Byers had trouble with Whitby in the County Town the last time they met. > "* * SPORT SHORTS--Jimmy Braddock of New Jersey was awarded an unpopular 10-round decision over Leo Lomski of Aberdeen, Wash, in a light-heavyweight bout at Chicago, 18 years ago today.

SQUAD London, Jan, 17 (CP)--RCAF Flyers, Canadian hockey represen- tatives in the winter Olympics battled Streatham, rated one oi the best teams in the British Na- tional League, to a 5.5 tie last night, ailure to capitalize on num- erous opportunities when the op position was shorthanded cost the lyers' vcitory. It was their first exhibition game of a Rptopean tour prior to O pie competition this month at St. Moritz, Switzerland. After the game Frank Boucher, coach of the Flyers, said that "it was only a fair show, but we'll do better when we shake our sea legs." oucher said the Flyers, off the Queen Elizabeth less than 36 hours faded in the final 10 minutes and a momentary lapse allowed Bud McEachern of Charlottetown PEI, to score the tying goal, 1t was his third. First period goals "Bod Hib- bard of Ottawa and Wally Hal- der of Toronto gave the Flyers an early lead which they failed to tied the score at 4.4. Gravelle's goal was a hard shot which caught a narrow opening to beat Streat- ham's Windsor-born goalie, Monty Reynolds. Then Gravelle duplicated Me- Eachern's feat by scoring again within 20 seconds to give the Fly- ers a 5-4 advantage as the middle session ended. The Flyers battled to protect their lead until 14.10 of the third period when McEachern scored his third goal. After that Streatham hold. While Louis Lecompte of Ottawa was serving a penalty late in the period, Streatham pushed through quick goals by eorge Drysdale of Toronto and English- born Chuck Turner to even the count. Midway through the: second period Halder scored his second goal to give the RCAF a 3-2 lead, ut Streatham wiped the margin out when McEachern tallied twice within 20 seconds. Orval Gravelle, of Aylmer, oungest mem=~ ue., ber of the qe Jou team, then | held the edge. Only sterling work by ' RCAF's netminder Murray Dowey of Toronto saved the Fly- ers.

ANOTHE Oshawa Junior At Lindsay Locals Wake Up Too Late In Game To Win -- Lindsay "Go-Get-Em" Shows Well in Scoring Columns -- Lots of Temper Flare-Ups and Penalties ? In Lindsay last night the home- |$ town team ran up an 8-5 score on the visiting Oshawa Junior B squad, Oshawa opened scoring, but they didn't do very much in between and that was when the Lindsay squad pushed the | play all the way inside the Oshawa line to really deserve the win, Bruce Weddup tallicd for the locals at the 23-second mark roar- ing in right from the face-off. Lindsay weren't slow in getting that one back, because from the face-off at centre ice (Gleeson grabbed off the draw passed to Kelly and he poked the puck by 4 Jim Claus for the tying goal. Parker from Coombs gave Lind- say two goals in succession as that duo got hot and tested the Oshawa defence and found it Waiting, Weddup took a pass from Hoop- er to score Oshawa's second goal on a hot shot to make it 3-2. A minute later and Hennessy rallied for Lindsay to make it 4-2 which was the way the period ended. Lindsay found the way they wanted it in the second frame and added two more goals to their 4.2 lead. Coombs tallied on Parker's pass this time, and then Nichols scored on a pass from Robinson, both goals coming before the five-minute mark in the period. In the third frame Oshawa final- ly woke up to the possibility of de- feat and they outscored the home team, but not by enough to win the battle. The score was 6-2 and Coombs made it 7-2 on a pass from Parker. Hooper and Weddup scored once cach for Oshawa to bring the locals back at a 7-4 count. Coombs got his third goal then also from Park- er and that made it 8-4. Wilf Mor- rison took Jedd Wilson's pass and scored for Oshawa but two min- utes before the end of the game. So the game ended 8-5. Bruce Weddup, with three goals, was best for the locals, while Coombs with three goals and two assists led the Lindsay crew.

Roach Decisions Janiro At Gardens New York, Jan, 17--(AP)--Lavern Roach, the boxing 'rookie of the year' in 1947, is established today as a Madison Square Garden headliner who may draw a $100,000 gate in a Proposed bout with Marcel Cerdan. Although the 21-year-old marine veteran from Texas never had ap- peared as a pro in the Garden be- fore last night, most of the 11,924 fans who saw him beat Tohy Jan- iro in a good 10-rounder went away singing his praises, Roach has established himself as a good draw in any future local ap- earance. The fact that Janiro, the DA ad lad from Youngstown, Ohio, was somewhat less than sen sational at 158'%4 pounds, didn't ap. to be taken into considera- tion, Janiro fought a poor fight in comparison with previous Garden efforts, Roach, a rugged two-fisted bat tler at 156% pounds, absorbed To- ny's best shots and kept coming back for more, He bloodied Janiro's nose in the first and continued to draw red throughout the, scrap, LINE COACH AGAIN New York -- Green Bay Packers of the National Football League announced that they had signed Walter Kiesling as Five coach for the third straight season to assist head coach Curly Lambeau.

At the end the crowd broke out in wild cheering and chanted "We want Barbara (Czech for Barba- ra)!" The Canadian Miss obliged with two encores and after posing for photographers stepped off the ice to watch the performance of Button, a close friend since they skated in the world championships at Stockholm last winter, The New Jersey youngster, who, too, had won the hearts of the Czech skating world with his vic- tory over world champion Hans Gerschwiler last Tuesday in the European championships, put on a fine exhibition and when he came off the ice Miss Scott said "that was nice." Button returned the compliment with a kiss on the Canadian girl's forehead. Milling photographers immediately asked for a "redo" and the pair obliged. The cameramen, not satisfied with the kiss, told Button to do it the "right way". The climax came when he put his arm around Barbara Ann's waist, kissed her on the lips. The crowd frantically cried "more! more!" and the principlas obliged again, The Ottawa lass had a twinkle in her eye as she skated off, but But- ton--he was crimson, Stadium attendants and police had to clear a way through the milling crowd to enable Miss Scott to reach her dressing room. Scores bandied her with pictures and autograph books to sign. At a civic reception given by Pra- gue's Lord Mayor, the Canadian skater was presented with a gold medal by thte International Swat- ing Union in honor of her victory Thursday night in the European tournament, and later she received a cut glass vase from the Lord Mayor.
