18 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, December 14, 1967 OSHAWA GENERALS are invading Maple Leaf Gardens tomorrow evening, to do bat- tle with the Toronto Marl- boros, a game which the Me- moria] Cup holders want very much to win. Word is out that the. league- leading Niagara Falls Flyers are faltering just now, due mainly to the fact that they have been hit very hard, recently, by the injury disease. Marlies, currently holding down fourth place, only one point behind Kitchener and Montreal who are tied for third with 29 points each, have it figured that this is a good time for them to make a move. A win over Oshawa tomorrow night would move them up, likely ahead of only Montreal, since Kitchener is expected to win their game tonight in the Lift- lock City. BUT GENERALS are get- ting some ideas of their own That win over the Flyers here on Tuesday night, was a great morale booster for the Osh- awa club. Unfortunately the season's smallest crowd was on hand to watch the action. However, there's not much opportunity to do any Christ- mas shopping on Sunday night, even for those who haven't yet completed their list, so we look for a much better turnout, when London Nationals visit the Generals this weekend. Beating Marlies right in Maple Leaf Gardens is just about too much to hope for, even though the Oshawa team usually puts up a spirited showing on Toronto ice. But come Sunday evening, the Generals should be able to tighten their grip on eighth place in the race. COBOURG COUGARS, rated almost everywhere in the Lakeshore Junior 'B' group, except up in Peter- borough, as the team Oshawa Crushmen have to beat, if they are to earn OHA play- down rights, will visit the Civic Auditorium tomorrow nicht. The lads from Cobourg » just as pesky as their Idlife namesakes and al- vs give the Crushmen a lot rouble. Coach Bob Dionne manager Bob Heard will urging their team with ex- vigor tomorrow night, be- ise the Oshawa Crushmen ed a win badly, just to keep ace with Peterborough and Cobourg, in the struggle for the top rung. ELWOOD BRADLEY, presi- dent of the Oshawa Minor Hockey Association, would By Geo. H. Campbell Associate Sports Editor like to hear from at least two men and a few more would be welcome also, but the city's minor puck organization needs a coach and a manager, for one of their clubs in the five- team Juvenile league. The Ju- veniles hold forth each Mon- day evening, early, at Civic Auditorium. With teams en- tered in provincial playdowns of the Ontario body's various groups, novice, pee wee, ban- tam, midget and juvenile, the local executive has the wel- come mat out for help, both financial and man-power, In- cidentally, at nine o'clock this evening, Oshawa "Alnors," Midget All-Stars, will host Richmond Hill midgets, in an exhibition game, here at the Children's Arena. The Oshawa executive welcomes the Alnor Earthmoving Ltd. as its new- est sponsor and we're sure the young players will show their appreciation also. TORONTO FALCONS have emerged as that city's entry in the newly organized inter- national professional soccer circuit, that will embrace 20 major cities, mostly in the U.S. The Falcons, headed by owner Joe Peters, have bought the Toronto City fran- chise in the U.S.A. The mer- ger of the leagues means that there will be only one pro- fessional soccer team in each of the 20 centres. New York's two clubs will also combine. Vancouver joins Toronto as the two Canadian entries, with Montreal being seriously con- sidered. THE NHL TREASURY will likely benefit from last night's hockey action on the major front. Goalie Johnny Bower drew a minor and misconduct last night, when he objected too strenuously to the penalty he received for tripping Andy Bathgate late in the action. Since goalies aren't sent to the sin-bin, it was just a case of adding an automatic fine to his injured feelings, as far as Bower was concerned. Bower spouted off again, after the game, and just might be liable for still another fine. However, the coffers will get their biggest boost from the affair at Boston, where Jean Beliveau coached Canadiens to a 6-2 win over the Bruins, after trailing 2-0. Beliveau got his baptism in the ulcer fraternity when coach "Toe" Blake got himself heaved out of the game for continuing an argument with referee Bill Friday, at the end of the first period.

"I've never been thrown out before except in amateur hockey," Blake said of his ban- ishment for protesting too vehe- mently that Boston had an extra skater on the ice when Ken Hodge scored the game's first goal in the opening period. The confusion arose while penalties were being served for both«teams in the wake of a mild brawl. Boston suddenly wound up with a 5-4 manpower advantage and scored, bringing forth violent protests from the Montreal bench. Blake leaped 'up and down for several minutes before play was resumed.
