74 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, April 28, 1961 EDMONTON'S DUTTON AND MAJORS' DRAPER MIX IT UP ALONG THE BOARDS ' St. Mike's Are Two Up (and stuck sports menu Cage Fixing Geo. H. Campbell KE 4 SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' Players Cited EDMONTON OIL KINGS had replacements last night, for their second game of the Memorial Cup championship finals but apparently it really didn't make too much difference, St. Mike's Majors won the second game 4-1, to take a two-game lead in this title series and the writing on-the-wall is becoming evident. No- body, but nobody, in Eastern Canada, has stamped the "Irish" this season as a wonder team, unbeatable, etc., but now we find them in the Canadian Junior champion- ship finals, playing in the "other guy's back yard" and still looking very formidable. Let's face it, folks -- things in Junior hockey really aren't what they used to be. We've got a few old-timers trying to hang on and a few ambitious newcomers striving for glory -- or, and let's be fair about it, maybe these late-comers are only trying to help out, because they are truly interested in the game -- but the fact remains, the hockey path is becoming more hazardous every season. The reason, in our humble opinion, is because the OHA, via the senior clubs, a few years back and via the Junior clubs in later years, have permitted themselves to swallow the financial bait and become the pawns of the-National Hockey League. The Ontario Minor Hockey Association has pretty well avoid=~ ed this complication, If they stand firm and shun OHA dictatorial attitudes and NHL wooing tactics, they'll em- erge as hockey$ only true amateur body. Without a drastic change -- the end is in sight for "amateur hoc- key" in Ontario, as far as the OHA is concerned. ONTARIO HOCKEY ASSOC. held a "closed" meet« ing (that's another word for "secret") on Wednesday night and when they finally emerged with a couple of "press releases" -- it became evident to everybody in Canada and especially in Ontario, that the OHA "brass" was concerned over the hockey rebellion that has de- veloped in recent days. They told a story of having made only a suggestion ~~ but not really voted on this -- yet they had already corrected "the Press" by adjusting the voting statistics. We would like to make one observa- tion at this time -- if a group of folk interested in minor hockey, can make the OHA (in this case, just the Junior "A" Council -- but what else is left in OHA?) sit up and call a special meeting and really pull in their horns ~then why not have the entire provincial populace take up arms against the OHA and get things straightened out ? We would like to repeat our old (about 10 years old) argument that if the Canadian government, who will not let any boy vote until he is 21 years old, would also protect this same boy until he is 21 -- they'd put the NHL scouts, clubs, bosses, etc. right back where they belong. And who knows -- maybe we'd even get "ama- teur hockey" back in the picture -- for somebody over 16 years-of-age. BRIGHT BITS -- Oshawa Curling Club members held their annual meeting last night, returned the same three directors for another term and they in turn named Matt. Sutton as the club president for the 1961-62 sea- son. Matt Sutton came to Oshawa, back a few years ago (Okay, Matt, we'll not say how many), to play baseball, In those days he was regarded as a pro pros- pect as an infielder. He subsequently proved one of those "good glove -- no hit" guys but he made a hit here in Oshawa and has made this'his home ever since and has been a credit and a contributing citizen. We remember Matt. Sutton as a second-baseman with Osh- awa's good ball teams of yesteryears -- today, we recog- nize him as a moving force in the Oshawa Curling Club.. . . .

The games included one during the 1959-60 season and 25 last season, Of the 26 Ho- gan said 12 were "successfully" rigged. Brown, who played in only two or three games near the end of the season, was not suc- cessful, Hogan said, in making such arrangements at Nort Carolina. "Brown made efforts to line things up for Wagman at North Carolina," said Hogan, "but he (Brown) was more successful at luring players at St. Joseph's and Lasalle." As a result, Brown was named co - conspirator along with Bill Minnerly, ace half- back of the Connecticut foot: ball team; Jerry Vogel and Dan Quindazzi, both former Al- abama basketball players, and Joseph Green, described as a close associate of Wagman. Green has disappéared and is wanted for questioning.

The observat@n about heart came from Majors' coach Rev. David Bauer, who guided his collegians through the tough On- tario Hockey Association Junior A series to the' Eastern Canada championship. CAUTIONS OPTIMISTS Father Bauer was pleased with Majors' showing, before 6,112 customers, but still figures the Oil Kings are a threat. When someone suggested in the Toronto dressing room that Ma- jors could take the series in the minimum four games, Father Bauer cautioned: "No, No. They've much too good a team for that. . , . "I think it'sh going to be a close series the rest of the way, both' the scores and the games. Oil Kings were much better in the second game and looked like they might get better still. "qd didn't think St. Michael's ayed. quite as well, but per- aps that was because the Oil Kings wouldn't let them be that good twice in a row." Edmonton coach Buster Bray- shaw said: "You can't win if you can't score, I think the rea- son is that our big guns all sea- son are doing nothing. I think there'll be some changes Satur- day night." : St. Michael's, winners of the title in 1934, 1945 and 1947, share with Toronto Marlboros, They ward Bryan Hextall of Bran- Monarchs the honor of having won the cup three times.

Given the same rules, the same number of players, and a platoon system, Griffing "just doesn't make sense," Finks said. He agreed with Griffing that the hypothetical tussle never would come about 'but as long as we're playing this one on records only, they would seem to favor us by a large score." He named 10 AFL quarter- backs, all outcasts from the CFL, that he said couldn't make it in Canada.
