threatened with the loss of its unofficial National Hockey League charm pionships in hooting hollering and garbagethrowing Both crises arose here Thurs day night when the Hawks took an 84 lacing from Toronto Maple Leafs and were rocked with continuous fusillade of cheers boos hats eggs pro grams and unidentified missiles from the normally staid Tor onto spectators That loft Chicagos defending cup champions trailing the best ofseven final No authori tntive figures were available on the count of decibels or thrown objects things go according to form the Black Hawks Will be back here for seventh

Senators The Cuban pitcher lost his only major league start late last season after the Senators brought him from Toronto Earlier last year he won 10 games and lost one for Colum bia in the South Atlantic League and Jersey City in the International League think they didnt he said They really got behind us and think thats why they got such good game Rudy Pilous Chicago coach didnt have much reason to talk about the Hawks fifth game performance so he turned to boosting his fans Our own crowd can be much more moving getting inspired with beer and such while their the Toronto fans best shot is water and soft drinks But he doesnt underestimate the power of the Leafs fans to retaliate if Chicago gets back to Toronto for seventh game and he says it will Well be back there nrcs day he said confidently And we expect to find Toronto the cleanest city in Canada Those hockey fans will pick up all the garbage in the city for the last game Some poor kid probably even will be going short on Easter eggs Centre Bobby Pulford was the Leafs star Thursday night He scored three goals the first one only 17 seconds after the open ing whistle Left winger Frank ltfahnvllch had two and centre Dave Keen right winger George Armstrong and centre Billy Harris had one each Ah McDonald got two for Chicago and Murray Balfour and Bob Turner scoredrthe others Only once did the Hawks rook threatening on

Wag ners National League record of 3430 TYPE By STEVE JONESCU Sports Editor HAPPY EASTER Continued cooperation from the weatherman could make this an exceptionally Happy Easter for Barries youngsters and earlybird ballplayers Barrie Parks Board has done its share tour of the parks and playgrounds Thursday was evidence enough that not all minds were on the Stanley Cup playoffs To benefit kiddies over the holiday the Parks board has erected clean new swings at all of the play grounds believe they were installed early Thursday morning By 1030 am every park with swing had at least dozen kids on it Unnoficed by the youngsters for sure werevthe workmen raking leaves trimming trees and doing ev erything possible to get things in as tidy shape as possible Queens Park the central area of summer ball ac tivity is in pretty good shape Softballers have been in evidence for couple of days You can expect it to have larger draw if the weather stays sunny and warm today and tomorrow Not too much going on at the Fair Grounds yet but plans for the summer are enlightening Barrie Welding has donated new backstop for the park The Park people are putting in third soccer pitch to further accommodate the resurging sport Incid entally Barries entry in the South Simcoe Baseball League will play its home games at FG on Sundays The new park at Grove street is all but complet ed and should take huge load of the mainstays Queens and Shear Bleachers have been installed at the new area Playground area and parking area are strategically placed The ball portion hasbeen levelled and seeded All thats left isfor thevhaselines to be charted and drawn The only discouraging tour was stop at the swimming part of the informative pool the modern one Still cant get over how small itis The swamp thatwas converted to swimming area in the industrial section of the city still holds the most appeal for me The whole situation is beau tiful At present the swimming area is being drained The bottom will be cleaned and resurfaced before the water is allowed back in Now if someone could only see fit to provide funds to fix up more land around itWowl JUST NOTES While the youngsters and ball hawks were
