Generals vatilted into a 6-1 lead against the stunned Marlboro team on Sunday afternoon but then the Oshawa boys dropped back into a state of their own that wasn't exactly wide-awake and when it was all over, the Jeaguedeading Marlies had come from behind, away behind, to salvage a 9-6 victory.

Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' |League SHORT NOTES: Not only {fs tonight's game of grave impor- tance towards the Generals end- ing in a playoff position, but hts of this evening's : the battle for scoring leadership between Buchanan and O'Shea, currently tied with 55 points; Buchanan's attempts at reaching the 40-goal plateau, he now has 33, and also remain in the, leagues' number two position, and Bobby Orr's trying to eclipse Jacques Laperriere's goalscoring record of 29, for a defenceman ... Orr, with 22 goals, needs only seven to tie, and eight to break it. But for a defenceman to score seven or eit goals in 19 games is near- ly -- If any player is capable, Orr certainly is, as demonstrated on Sunday when he rapped in two before the midway point of the open- ing period . . . This week's ac- tivity should carry considerable weight in,deciding the final out- come of playoff participants. Besides their home game to- night, Oshawa has another home tilt on Sunday night in Bowmanville, against Peterboro Petes, starting at 7.30 p.m. Méanwhile Red Wings, besides their visit to Bowmanville to- night, have the dubious chore of a back-to-back set with the league-leading Toronto Marl- boros beginnii Thursday in Hamilton, Should Marlboros ex- tend themselves like they did against Oshawa last Sunday, then Hamilton arent likely to rich in points. survive the two-game series too] St. Joseph's defeated St. Mary's 3-2 with McAvoy scoring twice for the winners and Bathe getting the other, with assists going to Reid and Price.

All the bobsled squads have arrived and today will have their second training runs on the Olympic course at Igls.

Like the Russians, the Czechs are extremely well disciplined and rarely resort to the heavy body contact that is comon- place in North America. Technically, 'they are re- garded the best amateur play- ers in the world. The only ques- tion is whether they can last the pace. Bruno Holfeld, director of the modernistically designed ice stadium, commented: "As far as I am concerned the Czechs are the best players than the Russians, but the Rus- sians' will win the Olympic ti- tle, and easily. "The Czechs have a great reputation for storming through their first games and then wan- ing in the final, vital ones." The Canadians are consid- ered here as perhaps too young and inexperienced for interna- tional competition.
