S NEED CUSTOMERS Senior 'A' Circuit In Dire Straits LONDON, Ont. (CP)--What can be done to rekindle the in- terest of fans in financially-be- set Senior A hockey? Teams making up the Ontario Hockey Association grouping agreed Monday night that some- thing must be done quickly, as they considered the plight of two member clubs --Sarnia Rams and Kitchener - Water!oo Tigers. Officials said the over-all Sen- ior A picture painted by Cha- tham Maroons, Wi:dsor Bull- dogs, Woodstock Athletics and Galt Terriers looked fairly grim. They reached this conclusion after approving a reorganiza- tion of Sarnia Rams on a share- the-wealth basis from the other Senior A teams. The Rams have been harassed by financial difficulties and 18 straight losses so far this season.

H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' Murray GENOSHA ACES, Oshawa's 1962 All-Ontario Juvenile "A" softball champions, were guests of honor last night at one of those pleasant banquet functions where everybody had nice things to say about the young men, and justly so. Genosha Aces "grew up" mainly in the Fernhill Park set-up, where most of the team played for their minor teams in recent years, until moving into sponsored ranks, Team manager and coaches, the three men who saw several years of hard work with their boys finally rewarded with a provincial championship, were also lauded. These were Stan Sobanski, Roger Plancke and Chris. Mason. Frank Densham, president of the' Fernhill Neighborhood Park Association, voiced the congratulations of the Fernhill Park folk to the members of the team. '"'Wib" Hall, on behalf of the Oshawa City and District Softball-Assoc., extended that body's plaudits, as did Herb Mackie, head of the Inter-County Softball League, in which the Genosha Aces enjoyed schedule action this past summer. Charlie Russell, OASA convener, presented The Fred G. Grant Memorial Trophy, on behalf of the Ontario Amateur Softball Association, to manager Chris Mason. John Brady, a past-president of the OASA, presented the championship crests to the team, after which Alderman Brady and Alder- man Albert Walker, on behalf of the Oshawa City Council, presented each member of the championship club with an individual' trophy, suitably engraved to record their cham- pionship feat. Alderman "Ab'"' thanked the boys for their contribution to Oshawa's sports fame. x x x x THE CLIMAX of the memorable event. was, of course, the p ation of handsome jackets, in club colors and complete with team and championship crests, the generous gift of sponsor Harry Finer, of Hotel Genosha. In giving each member of the team, the sponsor congratulated the boys and pointed out that he was proud of the club, of the way it had operated and praised them, not only for their spirit in coming from behind on several occasions to finally win out. in their quest for championsrip laurels, but also for the manner in which they had conducted themselves. And in addi- tion to the congratulations they received, the team also heard good news when their sponsor assured them that the "Genosha Aces' would be active again next year. A real good affair -- no long-winded speeches but heaps of sincere praise and some treasured souvenirs for their championship efforts, which will establish 1962 as a highlight year in the memories of these young athletes. x x x x ONLY MONEY!
