We refer to the exhibition game involving the Toronto Marlboros and the Whitby Mo~- hawks last Monday night in the County Town, Ob- viously both clubs were having a final look at play- ers in the "question mark" category before trimming their squads to the required limit for next week's opening tilts in the OHA Metro Junior "A" circuit, Offensively both clubs displayed considerable power, but defensively neither team had anything to get ex- cited about. One consolation for Whitby fans is that the Mohawks should be stronger after thinning out the border line performers and acquiring one or two | mere from the Toronto .erganization. Marlborés un- doubtedly will increase in strength also, and along with St. Michael's College Majors will rule the roost, as they both should do with the vast number of play- ers from all over the country to choose from. But fortunately for all concerned, hockey games are not won on paper! Some observers at Monday's game were overheard to say, "I think Marlboros let up quite a bit after they got two or three ahead." You would hardly think so when listening to Marlie coach Turk Broda give his impressions of his club's performance. B, people adopting this attitude, they were taking eredit away from the Whitby club each time they bat- tled back to even the score after being down three goals, on two occasions. LEAGUE OPENER MONDAY Mohawk G. M. Ivan Davies was busy with his pen at Tuesday's work-out signing part of his club for the opener on Monday night in Whitby. Those inked to contracts were: goaltender Terry Booth, de- fencemen, Garry McCullough, Len Bobbie, Bob Tripp, Ace Watts; forwards, Julie Kowalski, last season's scoring ace with the Lakshore Bruins Junior "B" club, Pete Shearer. Two netminders, Cliff Godridge, and Lorne Campbell, both local talent were cut from the squad on Tuesday. Still around besides Booth are Jim Hinkson and Bob Perani from the Marlie club who has yet to see action because of a football injury. Other aspirants will be signed tonight when the Mohawks work out from 8:00-10:00. Bill Collins and Bill Smith, both from Toronto drove down from Tororto to attend Tuesday's workout. . If Davie can bring them to terms, Smith and Collins will add a lot of spark to the forward wall. We erred in our ac- count of Monday's game by mentioning that Union- ville Jets open the 1961-62 schedule here at the Whit- by Community arena, it should have been the Bramp- ton Seven-Ups. Game time is 8:30 p.m. KINGSTON WIN STREAK HALTED TOWN AND COUNTRY ...
