Sawchuk Brewer, | David | {Computed [Canadiens By Geo. H. Campbell / SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' HAPPY NEW YEAR. Theres something nostalgic about the traditional greeting used. throughout the world to greet the advent of another year. For the young, "Happy New Year" is a challenge, a promise of adventure, new experiences, etc., and the eyes to the future, as is only right, the New Year is greeted and welcomed in with enthusiasm and perhaps just a fleet- ing thought to the past. But as we get a little older, even "the young in heart" are aware that "Happy New Year" also means "Good Bye, Old Year" and we reflect upon what has 'transpired since. last the bells rang out the old and rang in another year. : ' x M 1959 was a good one for the sports lovers and sports fans around these parts. With solemn reverence, we recall that some well-known faces will no longer be with us, and we pause a moment to pay tribute to their memory. In the "sports world" our athletes and our fafs, in this area, will have happy memories too, for sukeess and victory is long remembered and we enjoyed measure of both, in this past year. Across and throughout the world, there were great in sports, new records were set, amazing feats were performed, and all of us who enjoy sport in any form, had our share of entertainment and thrills. And the greatest thrills come to those who are par- ticipants, the athletes themselves who achieved their own coveted goal -- success in their own field. Look- ing back over 1959, we find championship trophies coming this way before the snow had gone. Don Jack- son captured the Canadian skating crown; Oshawa curlers won the Ontario Women's Tankard; Whitby Dunlops won the Allan Cup again and Oshawa's new Intermediate "B" basketball team won the Ontario title, all before May 1st. Our local Midget hockey team also came within the last minute in the deciding game, of bringing home a provincial crown also. Then came the summer months and three more Ontario championships were brought to Oshawd, all by the voungsters, Midgets and Juveniles in softball and Ju- veniles in basketball, A provincial title was "just missed" in the final game, but the hono: list kept on growing, with the Ontario Junior archer title and finally the Oshawa Rugger Club won the Ontario hon- ors in their division. To all these 1959 Champions, who made this past year both a memorable and pleasant one for their sports fans, we owe a vote of thanks. And we add, a final "Well Done". Let's hope we enjoy as much success in 1960, "Happy New Year" -- to every- one in sport, to all our readers -- in fact, "Happy New Year", to one-and-all! ICE CHIPS:-- Oshawa curlers "Bill" Brownlee is putting on a special event Saturday afternoon, with hams, apples, etc., as prizes. The rinks will be "drawn" off the board and the first 64 curlers on hand Saturday, no later than 1.30 p.m., will be the competition. They'll be playing on freshly painted rings too -- Joe Roberts has been busy this week . . . TWO MEMBERS of the local curling frater- nity, "Al" Parkhill, vice - president of the Ontario Curlers' Assoc. and W. B. "Bert" White, left last night for Scotland, joining the Canadian curling party touring Scotland. A "bunch of the boys" were on hand at the CPR station last night, to join friends and families, in wishing Al and Bert "bon voyage" EWART NICHOL'S Oshawa rink won top honors in the first annual suburban schoolmasters bonspiel, held in Toronto yesterday, Bill Litman's Galt rink was second and another Oshawa entry, skipped by Joe Walsh, took the third prizes OSHAWA LIONS CLUB is to be congratulated for their latest piece of community effort, They presented 30 headguards (type of helmet) and two plastic masks for goal- keepers, to the Oshawa Minor Hockey Assoc, last night at The Children's Arena. A commendable move by this service club to help avoid injuries to our hockey- playing youngsters in the "City League" . . . GARY BUTLER, 16-year-old right-winger from the Oshawa Juveniles, signed up with "Hap" Emms' Barrie Flyers The rangy youngster is nearly six feet tall He got assists on both goals soccer * » * » that this are reminded last night. and weighs 173 pounds. when he had his trial game with Barrie earlier this week in Brockville, when the hometown Canadians defeated Barrie 4-2, Coach Emms liked what and signed Gary to help keep his second-place standing on the OHA Junior "A" race. Young Butler joins three other Oshawa Minor Assoc. graduates, Eddy Westfall, Lynn Middleton and Bob Wright, all with Barrie Flyers and Jackie Cole, also of this city, is with St. Mike's Majors. Five Oshawa boys good enough for Junior "A" ranks -- and we haven't got an arena for them to play in. That's our New Year's wish -- but wishing will not be enough!

Lions Still Show Surplus VANCOUVER (CP) -- Last March British Columbia Lions forecast an over-all deficit of $4, 000 for their 1959 Western Inter- provincial Football Union opera-| tions Their year-end financial state ment shows they spent nearly $100,000 more than intended and still showed an over-all sur- plus of nearly $25,000. {Dear Sir | We would like to use your Inewspaper to issue a challenge |for exhibition hockey, to all {hockey teams in Oshawa and sur- {rounding district. (Whitby Dun- |lops excluded, if Mr. Blair hap- pens to be reading.) This challenge is issued on be- half of the Oshawa Major Hockey League and its three teams, Macko's A's, Durno's Garage, and Juvenile All-Stars. We had the misfortune to have a team drop out at the start of the sea- son and since then we have been frustrated in our efforts to ob- tain either a fourth team, or even single exhibition encoun- ters.

We| also contacted Port Hope Inters.,| but they too have so far refused. Next we contacted the UAW league but their players refused to play two games in one day. However, many of our boys play in two leagues every Sunday, and some, in as many as three. We might add that the UAW execu- tive was most co-operative and Dumped Trois Rivieres in second place with Montreal Royals at 36 points, six behind the Wolves and two ahead of the Lions. Other Kingston scorers were Willie O'Ree, Red Ouellette, Cal Gardner and Glen Cressman. The Hull-Ottawa snipers were J. C. Tremblay, with two, and Yves Locas. At Sudbury the Wolves ran all over the Lions as McCarthy and Bettio paced the scoring. Wally Boyer added two goals and' singles were counted by Gene Ubriaco, Dave Amgdio and Jim Pappin. Trois - Rivieres' scorers were Bob Sabourin, Irwin Spencer and Gilles Thibeault. Four goals were scored in the last 80 seconds. One by Sabourin was hotly contested by Sudbury goaler Gerry McNamara. The verbal outburst earned him a misconduct. There was little evidence of the inter-city feud between the two clubs that has resul'ed from charges of stick swirz'ne by Sud- ury's John Sleaver al games in Trois-Rivieres.
