Based on their performance against Central Collegiate teachers Friday night one could swear that the Harlem Diplomats were none other than the Harlem Globetrotters in disguise Along with little playacting from the opposition the team successfully performed many of the zany antics of their predecessors They eventually won the contest 4430 Diplomats have only six players They are coached by former Globetrotter Nel Hum phrey The team was put together 18 years ago and since that time they have added three new players Although we fashion ourselves after the Globetrot ters said Humprey we try to add some original stuff of our own Diplomats have toured dif ferent parts of Canada the United States and South America Stanley is top scorer Bruce Stanley scored two goals and Gary Cyr added

period brawl mars Flyers game By CATHY HEATHER Of The Examiner Orillia Terriers defeated Bar rie Flyers 93 in an In termediate hockey league game which was marred by benchclearing brawl in the third period which reuulted in two players being suspended for two games and multitude of major and minor penalties the bulk assessed to Flyers With Orillia leading 52 at the 453 mark of the third period Flyers goalie John Collins decided to take out his frustra tions on Terriers Rick Smith with whom he had had several minor alterations throughout the game Collins was punching Smith pretty badly and the linesmen couldnt break them up realted Flyers playercoach Paul Regan One of their players Robbie Street left their bench and as soon as that happened our bench emptied and so did theirs Regan felt that bad of ficiating was big factor in precipitating the third period brawl In my opinion it was poor ly officiated gme said Regan He the referee wasnt call ing anything and you could just see it building up to what hap pened Regan commented that the referees interpreted the rules in way he had never seen before when they assessed penalties to the teams once the brawl had Ditiatin defeats Thomas FORT WORTH Tex AP Alexandre Ditiatin of the Soviet Union and Kurt Thomas of the United States achieved goals Friday night in the worlds gymnastics championshi Now they are head for dream duel at the 1980 Olym pics in Moscow where Ditiatin will have the home gymnasium advantage The 510 175pound Ditiatin succeeded fading Russian star Nikolai Andrianov as the king of the worlds gymnasts by beating back Thomass deter mined challenge before pro US crowd of 6000 spectators in the convention centre where the meet is being held Philip Delasalle of Victoria finished 12th and Warren Long of Vancouver was 36th after in jury restricted his par ticipation Thomas was far from un happy with his silver medal the first ever won by US gymnast in world cham pionship My allaround goal was third

August be tween light heavyweight cham pion Matthew Saad Muham mad of Philadelphia and Britains John Conteh has been voided because Muhammads cornermen used illegal sub stances to stop cut over the champions eye WBC president Jose Sulaiman of Mexico made the announcement at the end of threeday meeting of the WBC council which also named welterweight Sugar Ray Leonard and WBC heavyweight champion Larry Holmes both of the US its Boxers of the Year bout in Milan between Alexis Arguello of Nicaragua the superbantamweight cham pion and Alfredo Escalera of Puerto Rico was voted the Fight of the

Britain must defend his title against the winner of bout between the two leading contenders Vilomar Fernandez of the Dominican Republican and Howard Davis of New York who were ordered to meet within the next 60days beenstopped Since the Terriers Street was first off the bench Street should have received an automatic game misconduct as should have Flyers Ken Knapton who led his teams charge of the bench Terriers coach Wayne Rutledge also should have received an automatic onegame suspen sion as it was one of his player who was the first to leave either bench However the referee gave both Street and Knapton double minors and Rutledge was not given suspension Flyers Jay Douglas and Ter riers Geoff Green both were given automatic twogame suspensions for their major misconducts JOHN COLLINS fights starts brawl The referee handed out the penaltie as tough we were the first team off the ice said Regan who pointed out this fact to the officials strenuously enough to be given tenminute misconduct and minor penal ty himself Asked whether he had in structed Street to leave the bench and go to the assist of Smith Terriers coach Rutledge said Hell no was yelling at him to come back We already had twoman ad vantage at that point but where were they If the linesmen had done their job the whole thing wouldnt have hap pened Regan agreed with Rutledge saying that he felt the linesmen should have been able to separate Collins and Smith In sted both teams emptied their benche and it took over 25 minutes to straighten everything out Flyers were clearly deflated after the brawl as they were left Shorthanded for what Re an referred to as minutes an minutes Terriers scored goal just minute after the brawl and then three more before the game was over Flyers managed just one more score in the third period Kevin Parsons Bob Baird and Dan Walker scored the Flyer goals Bill Beauchamp Vytas Urbas and John Winder led the way for Orillia with two goals each Singles went to Gary Marsh Mike Wilson and Jim Sherit Barrie had 24 shots on Orillia goalie Clyde Harris Collins faced 32 shots from Ter riers in net for Flyers We really got off to bad start said Regan It was on ly 42 going into the third period and we were hoping to come back But the fight ended things for us Orillia played really well and we werent skating added Regan Our game is to play the man and forecheck and when we do we usually do well Against Orillia we let them freewheel all over the ice and we got burned Regan says Flyers will have to turn things around tonight when Flyers will have to turn things around tonight when Flyer meet Terriers again only on home ice Dunlop Arena pm While Regan says Flyers will play the man and bodycheck he says that Flyers dont intend to start any brawls Expos Braves go home happy TORONTO CP Montreal Expos and Atlanta Braves went home happy but most major league brass left grumbling if they had any voices left There was plenty of talking but very little action during baseballs annual weeklong winter meetings Most clubs arrived hoping to swing major trades in an effort to help themselves for the 1980 season However only 11 deals involving 30 players were made We might just as well have stayed home said general manager Spec Richardson of San Francisco Giants That summed up the feelings of most observers great deal of money was wasted Even with interleague trading the wheels grinded to nearhalt with the least productive winter meeting in memory At least half of the major league clubs packed up and headed home early Friday Ev eryone agreed on one thing in tricate contracts with special clauses many under the agree ment with the players associ ation prevented possible deals So did the fact that another in terleague trading period will run

As the hockey season progresses Darryl Slys Coll ingwood Shipbuilders have been demonstrating more and more their superiority over rival clubs Slys coaching has been given major credit The former Barrie Flyer star player and pilot has his team playing determined brand of hockey somehting like he did for the senior Flyers when they captured the Allan cup champion ship few years ago At present the Flyers are battling desperately to stay within hailing distance of the pacesetting Shipbuilders in the Georgian Bay intermediate hockey league standings While they dropped 63 verdict to the leaders in their last clash at Collingwood Paul Regans charges have shown they can turn the tables when clicking Bob Coulson led Flyers to an earlier 53 win at the Dunlop Street Arena over the highflying firstplacers FLYERS FAREI BETTER In fact Flyers have fared much better than any other club against the Shipbuilders so far Wayne Rutledges Orillia squad have managed to take only one out of four games from Slys pesky team Playing coach Regan who played hockey under Slys tutorship for several hectic seasons here in Barrie has deep respect for the ability of the Collingwood pilot But he is still hopeful his Flyers will yet be able to overhaul the leaders The season is still young and steady improvement can often accomplish the unexpected with the right deter mination and effort Regan has helped outstanding Barrie teams win championship honors in the past and with good support can undoubtedly do so again The Flyers are engaged in crucial series with their old rivals from Orillia
