THE .OSHAWA DAILY. TIMES. SATURDAY. Herb. Smith at left guard was es- pecially. good on the rebounds and ority Although Queen City Five Give Them Plenty of Trouble. -- With two successful victories on the local Collegiate gymnasium Oshawa Collegiate basketeers las night, opened their 1928 schedule season, the junior squad turnin in a 28 to 14 win, while the sen fors notched a 40 to 10 decision the Vaughan road guintettes fro North Toronto, being at the short end in both cases, A record crowd was attracted to give the game a real send off for the local season, while the brand of basketball which was dis- played made it quite apparent that the next games which are slated here for January 27, should see an even greater turn out, Both were fast and keenly con- tested exhibitions, the junior bat- tle standing out for excitement from start to finish while the sen- {or set-to was productive of a bet- ter and more finighed brand of basketball although the decided superiority of the 0.C.1. team gave it an almost one sided atmosphere. The junior game was played as a preliminary fixture to the senior contest, but equalled it; if not bef- tered it, from the spectators' stand- int. " the junior affair, Vaughan Road, with some short, fast pass- ing, and a massed attack piled up an early lead which caused the lo- cal five to look to their laurels to hold their own against the heavy going, They were equal to the taslk, however, and came back with a de- termined confidence which brought the count to an 8 to 6 level at the end of the period, and whieh saw them climb into the lead early in the last half where they managed to stay for the remainder of the game, despite the terrific pace set up by the visitors, in the last few minutes of play, Better team work, finer passing and a marked superiority in shoot- ing was responsible for their vie tory, and in fact their entire per- formance stands out in a hichlv | favorable light especially since this | is the first game, league or othev- | wise, in which they have played as a team, Daniels at left forward, Corrin at right, and Swarfz at een- ter, were all shooting and check- ing like veterans last night, and so slso was Cornish and Black, who subbed on the forward line, SE------ ---- dn getting the ball out to the for- wards, while Art Smith took the only basket which wasn't eredited to the forwards, on. a beautiful long shot from the center of the floor. Johnny Guiltinan who also figured in a goodly part of the rame, made certain of some strong and effective checking, while he was on the floor, Westan at left forward and Jar- via. at centre were good for the vigitors and between them they ae- counted for all but three of Vaugh- an 'Road's points, The line ups were: Vaughan Road-- (Juniors) -- rieht forward, Richmond, (2); left forward, Weston, (6): center, Jarvis, (6); right guard, Stewart; left guard, McRostie; subs, Leach, Rogers and Davies, (1). Oshawa - Collegiate--Right for- ward, Corrin, (8); left forward, Daniels, (8); center, Swartz, (4): right guard, Herb, Smith; Teft guard, Art Smith, (2); subs, Hngel, Cornish, Black, Williams and Guiltinan, Tn* the senior fixture, the finish and style of the local boys as com- naved tothat shown by Vaughan Road, was in itself a treat to*watch and as the score indicates, they were by no means lax in' proving their ability eve mthough minus the services of their regular right. guard, Stuart Carver, Vaughan Road, however, considering that this is their first game and that they have only held five practices this season, made a good showing and were by no means as badly shown up as the 40 to 10 secorr might Indicate, The locals stood out, especially in their phenominal shooting and accurate passing, while their five man defensive construction and tactics had the visitors completely hafiled 'for the greater part of the game, The first period ended with a 24 to 4 connt in Oshawa's favor, and in the last they found com- naratively little trouble in increas- ing the total up to the final re- sult, although the substitutes were used freely for all positions, Young and Gummow again di- vided the scoring honors for the locals, Young taking a shooting spree in the first half, while Gum- mow took up the task in the last sessio nand made the basket look the size of a tub when he happen- ed to look for it. Young poured in 12 points in the first session, while Gummow came right back for e'ght in the last. Hubbell at center, turned in another reliable "ame throughout, while the guards, Parnum, TWVaird and Davidson, rounded ont the nicely balanced oegregation which proved the de- struction of the Vaughan Road men, The subs all stood out and were used almost ag mireh as the regn- ave, with very guecers®l results Armstrong and Koben had partien- erly fine games to their credit.

Lauder, who will report to the Bruins again vext Fall, played with the Owen Sound Dominion jumior echam- pions last season. DENIES RUMOR Hamilton, Jan. 14.--In spite of an emphatic denial by Perey Thompson, manager of the Hamil- ton Canadian Professional Hock- ey League club, the rumor that links the sale of the local team and franchise to Northern imter- ests still persists. It was learned from an authoritative source yes- terday that a Sudbury syndicate sought to purchase the Hamilton holdings, with Wilfrid ("Shorty") Creep, present manager of the New, York Americans of the N.H. this mature, and that he knew nothing of 2ny negotiations.

Larry Gains won in the main Johnston, Canadian bantamweight champion, added another knock- out to his string here last -night when he stopped Bobby Dempsey of Boston, after 2 minutes and 20 seconds of Dbexing in the first round, A right to the jaw sent Dempsey reeling, and the Canadian champion brought his left into ac- tion, and sent it across to Demp- sey's jaw, and the Boston battler hit the canvas with a thud, After Referee Hugh Hayes had counted him out, the Boston man's seconds carried him to his corner, and sev- eral minutes later he was himself again, It was the first boxing show in Hamilton in over two years, and close to 1,000 fans turned out in ant.cipation of seeing a real battle as Dempsey reached Hamilton with a fair record to boast of, ANOTHER VICTORY FOR LARRY GAINS Toronto, Jan, 14,--Another vie- tory was placed to the credit of Larry Gains of Toronto, Canadian heavyweight champion, when he defeated the °' Belgian champion, Jack Humbeck, on points in their ten-round contest, (the feature of the Shamrock A.C. show at the Coliseum last evening), It was a good bout as heavyweight affairs go, with Gains holding the lead all the way.

New York, Jan, 14.--The judges and the referee at Madison Square Garden last night declared for a draw decision the twelve-round bout between k Sharkey, the Boston hea ight, and Tom Heeney, st New Zealand boxer, and deprived key of a merited victory. A crowd of 16,948 people, who paid $160,031, did not like the decision, and sent up a roar of disapproval as the verdict was announced. But the strains of jazz music coming through the am fiers suspended from the cell of the Garden made this outburst of condemnation short-lived, The bout will go into the records as a draw, but nine out of ev ten men and women who viewed the encounter left the arema satisfied that Sharkey had beem the yictim of an uncomplimentary decision, The judges were George Patrick and Ceorge Kelly, and the referee Jamea Denning, How they voted was not disclosed, A request for this information was submitted te Chairman James A, Farley of the States Athletica Commission, in view of the general dissatisfac- tion over the award, but Chairman I'arley was steadfast in observance of the Commission's regulaltions, and announced that details of the vote would not be divulged until Saturday morning at Commission headquarters, BROCKVILLE BEATS RMCTEAM2TO 1 Kingston, Jan, 14.--Brockville scored its first vietory of the seas- on in the O.H.A, intermediate group here last night when they de- feated R.M.C, 2 to 1 before the smallest crowd of the seasom, The visitors had not been on ice for a week, and whiel ltonight's game was ragged most of the time, and little teamplay was exhibited, they showed surpringly good condition throughout, Brockville were ua: doubtedy saved from defeat in the last period by the great goaltend- ing of Murray, who stood between the Cadets and victory in the last ten minutes of play, Brockville went into the lead with the only goa of the first per- fod when Kennedy rushed, and saw his own shot batted itno the nets by Millelr, In the second period the teams battled until Kennedy gain went through, and Prego was in front of the nets to slant in the rebound, After seven min- utes of the last period Smith scored the only R.M.C. goal on a rush with Clarke, Brockville disputing the goa, but without avail, Kennedy, Woodcock and Murray -- Optical Parlors Phone 28 or 20 | 4 WHEN WE TEST EYES | 'OSHAWA LUGGAGE )| | IT IS DONE PROPERLY | Presentation Sub Bags and. a Cases with Ini» | JURY & LOVELL SAYWELL and SON 19 BOND STREET WEST -- PHONE 338 oe ---- en Be were the oustanding players for Brockville, while Kingsmill, Smith and aMssie were the best for the losers. ; Brockville--Goal, Murray; de- fense, Sheridan, Dexter; centre, Kennedy; wings, McInrue, Wood- cock; subs, Frego Miller. .
