p 10 the stouffviue tobuhe twy mdi 21 1957 another wat xeedei the chap who invented the roundrobin hockey playoff eres should he shot says mr geo haskett newmarket sports scribe i heartily ajjree with mr haskett in this regard where three clubs are involved in a roundrobin semifinal lt6 possible that when the home and home series is completed the teams may be right back where they started this was the case in f the local junior c group involving brooklin aurora and newmarket after rruellin series each club finished with an identical number of points the oha in a desperate move to establish a winner ordered the semifinals to be replayed immediately by the time the finals are run off it will be april before a team from this group emerges to play in the ontario playdowns after so much hockey three or four games in a single week the group champion will probably pass out of the playoff picture through fheer exhaustion the same situation could have occurred in the intermediate setup if beeton had upset aurora on thursday night another view on the whole roundrobin setup that i nt like is the probability that the top club throughout the sclu could be ousted in short order in a roundrobin series in be the jr c and intermediate c groups aurora who finisheu ahead of the pack with a lengthy lead could have been knocked out of the money series if the club was off colour in a couple v games as we go to press this could still happen in the brooklinauroraxewmarket series although the ohas roundrobin series perhaps prolongs hockey plavoffs for a number of secondrate clubs in order that they might break even financially the omha i believe goes to the extreme by eliminating clubs on a goalstocount basis these home and home series such as the local juveniles are now participating in can be disastrous should one club have an off night cases are quite numerous where the weaker team has moved on into further ontario playoff competition just by catching their stronger rivals off stride in one of the two games take for example the bantam havelock series stouffville dropped the opener 94 at havelock and skated into the second game with the visitors holding a 50 advantage before the puck was even dropped they were the winners here but could not overcome the lead chalked up in the first contest in a bestofthree game series the victor would be debatable in reference to the bantams the stouffville juveniles also came within two seconds of being pushed aside by havelock bs the visitors notched the wouldbe winner a split second after the buzzer sounded the new series proved that stouffville was the better team but a club doesnt always get a second chance to prove its ability what is the solution its something that would need considerable study and one cannot give the matter a hurried answer perhaps it will be discussed more thoroughly when the oha and omha hold their annual meetings in the spring earia finish it hardly seems fair that the tjnlonvllle jets should he finished for the season their sudden exit was so unheralded that their faithful followeres are still scratching their heads and wondering what happened having swept through the regular schedule with comparative ease it was believed quite possible that they would at least add the group championship to their laurels hardly had the fans settled down for a quick final series and at least one round in the ontario playdowns when wham no more hockey sure it was possible for them to drop jone or even two games to alliston but three straight one can hardly believe it the jets performed extremely well during the schedule perhaps a little over their heads a few games prior to the playoffs they had a oneweek slump but appeared to have re covered before they entered the money series they knocked off blmvale in two straight and were favoured against alliston with the exception of the first game which was won by alliston 10d the unlonvillites werent in the same class they lost the return tilt 61 then were trounced sl right in their own backyard on friday night it is rather discouraging for a team of this type to fall by the wayside after racking up such a fine record in earlyseason play these boys really worked for the privilege to play hockey this winter when the outlook was bleak last fall these lads went out and sold booster tickets in order to scrape up enough money to guarantee themselves financial backing for at least a portion of the season during the last couple of weeks fans were beginning to give them muchneeded support and if they could have continued for another round or two they would have collected a tidy sum at the present time although your reporter is unaware of the clubs financial status we doubt if they will break even such is the risky road in this world of sport one week a team can be riding high pushing the opposition aside like ten pins the next week all is over and the sodden garments are once again returned to their moth- balled duffle bag no one will deny that unionville iced a good junior club this winter the records prove it in the group finals however when the chips were down they lust couldnt hold the charging alliston machine in check the turning point in the series appeared to be the 109 loss suffered by the jets on their home ica in the playoff opener after absorbing a second setback at alliston even
