THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN WEDNESDAY, DZCEMBER 4, 1946 W mi tea © CORPS NAPSHOTS compte ; Only one Junior "A" game was played last night, with Galt Red Wings trouncing the Falcons 11-0 in St. Catharines. Without Unger, the Falcons appear to be hopelessly outclassed this season. Clayt. Browne of St. Kitts, writes that the O.H.A, Junior set-up now is all wet and thinks that St. Michael's College, Oshawa Generals and Galt Red Wings should have been in a group by themselves. "Chick" 1 disagrees and with some reason, as he points out that Strat. fi may end up in 3rd place yet and states that that is their ambi- tion. Right now Barrie is in 3rd place and Galt's win last night put them in Second spot, alone." What Clayt. Browne should have said that this season, St. Kitts and Windsor should have been grouped with Hamilton--and let the other seven clubs fight it out--and he would have been closer fo fact and sense, SR a + * PY 'They're-hanging the S.RR.O. sign up at the Oshawa Arena tonight. That doesn't mean "spld right out"--it means "standing room only." They've never been "sold right out" at the Oshawa Arena but they came mighty close to it a couple of times last season. Ticket sale yesterday was very brisk and with a heavy demand from outside points, it is expected there will be a big crowd on hand tonight when the standing room tickets go-on-sale. Joe Primeau's. boys are coming here girded for action and Coach Conacher has his Generals in fine fettle for this battle also. The local Juniors are going to make a valiant attempt to snap that long win- ning string the "Irish" are stretching out towards the 20-game mark Just now, headed for a new record, unless somebody stops 'em pretty quick. A lot of guesses concerning tonight's game are being made as to the final score and this is just further evidence of the interest in the game. Inoci- defitally, a play-by-play description of 'the second and third periods of tonight's junior game here, will be carried by Oshawa's station CKDO. . . L J L 4 * a» A couple of Oshawa curling rinks were eliminated in the annual Thauburn Bonspiel play in Toronto Monday but they got some révenge before fading out. Ted Colvin's rink defeated W. S. Tomer. son's Granites and Perc, Eveleigh's eliminated Nels, Findlays Royal Canadians. It will 'be lled that Tom rink won the Sykes Memorial Trophy here last week while Findlays rink won the R. 8. o McLaughlin Trophy and the local 5-day bonspiel honors, in the same competition.

You guessed it. The Intra Oshawa Cadet League offi- cially got underway with the Army Cadets playing and beating their most beloved foe, the Sea Cadets. These two teams started the sea- son almost the same as they ended it, with one exception. The Army Cadets are winning for a change. The game itself was fairly fast and hard with neither team giving an inch, Ogden, Reid and Mann proved the Sea Cadeils fastest and most effective line. The Army Cadets started the scoring when Myles scored on a pass from Dodd, scoring on a high shot which completely fooled Mac- Dermaid. Sea Oadets tied the score a few minutes later when Reid scored on a lovely pass from Mann. The scoring stood still for a few minutes until Hamilton and Arnold caught the Navy with sails down and just floated in on MacDermaid for an easy 'goal. The second goal of the Sea Cadets was a solo effort by "Chuck" Johnson. The scoring ended with two quick goals by Wed- dup and Robinson each receiving assists on each others' goals, The standout line for Army Cad- ets was the Myles, Dodd and Wil- liams combination, aided by Hamil- ton and Arnold. The Robinson line with Farrow and Weddup is coming along. The win over Sea Cadets was the first win for the Army Cadets against any corps in this city in over three years, although the Army Cadets tied the Air Cadets a couple of weeks ago. The Army Cadet hockey team as yet has mot been beaten. A few nights ago they gave Allard's Wild- cats or "yokers" a solid beating. After the first 10 minutes this team could hardly touch the Army boys. The strongest opposition, we be- lieve, will be from Sea Cadets and we predict them to beat Air Cadets come this Saturday.

"BUCK" DAVIES GETS TWO GOALS WHEN OMAHA DEFEATED By The Canadian Press Omaha Knights, by losing 4-2 to St. Paul Saints in the United States Hockey League last night, lost their chance to overtake the Northern Division-leading Minneapolis Mil- lers, Victory would have given them 26 points against the Millers' Omaha led through the first per- lod on a tally by Frank Porteous, but in the second frame 'Buck" Davies and Bobby Dew counted for the Saints. Omaha knotted things 2-2 in the third as Jake Forbes bounced the puck into the net.

The Canadiens, whose pace has been torrid since a few minor ad- justments, polished off Chicago's fluttering Black Hawks 4-1 in the only N.H.L. game last night, That finally moved the Stanley Cup Champions into first place alone ahead of the rookie-studded Maple Leafs. The Leafs still hold two games in hand over the Canucks but, with all six teams getting into action to- night, the pressure is on to fore- |G stall a: Canadiens' victory putting them a big four points ahead. Although the Habitants will be playing their second game in two nights, they meet a fifth place club in their New York game with the | Win Rangers. The Leafs meanwhile will clash with the third-place Bruins at Boston, and thereby hangs the Jinx. In three meetings this season with the Bruins, the best Toronto has done was a 3-3 draw back on Oct. 23. Since then, they have ab- sorbed 5-0 and 4-2 beatings from manager Art Ross' bruising boys who are ready to trade bumps with anyone. The Canadiens were flying before a home crowd of 10,431 last night for their victory over the cellar- dwelling Hawks. Leading the attack with a pair of goals was Elmer Lach, starry centre of the punch line whose return to form has been a big factor in the champions' upsurge. Two other veterans, Billy Reay and Murph Chamberlain fired the other coun- ters. The Hawks, on whom owner Bill Tobin has said he will spend $100,- 000 to rebuild if he can get the players, looked like they needed all of that. Goalie Paul Bibeault, who let 11 goals in against Toronto last Sat- urday night, was the best man on the Chicago team. He had to kick out 33 pucks in all while Bill Dur- nan had an easy time with 14 saves at the other end. The Bentley boys bagged Chicago's only tally in the second period, Doug feeding Max for the goal. Wo The Hawks, who have now taken the count eight times in their last 10 starts, return home for tonight's third game, Their opponents are Detroit Red Wings, one point behind Boston in fourth place, CORNWALL WINS CLOSE ONE OVER VERDUN EAGLES Verdun, Que., Dec. 4--(CP) -- Cornwall Cougars advanced to second place in the Provincial Hockey League standings last night when they squeezed out a 4-3 win over the cellar-dwelling Verdun Eagles before a slim crowd here, Marshall, Don Batten, Dick Poulx and Landreault fired the Cornwall goals while Bobby Burr, Coeo Terrialut and Conrad Bou- cier netted the Verdun scores. Cornwall took an early lead when Marshall pumped in a goal at the four-minute mark of the first stanza. The goal - hungry Verdunites tallied the equalizer near the end of the period when Burr scored on a play with team- mate Jerry Gagnon, The Cougars added another goal in the middle period when Batten romped through the Ver- dun defence and fooled Lessard in the Verdun goal after Marsh- all had engineered the play. Cornwall made sure. of the game in the last frame with two goals by Poulx and Landre ult al- though the battling Verdun team came back to score two markers later in the period to trail by one THIS WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE! Cambridge, England, Dec, 4-- (Reuters)-- Fifteen "sportsmen of Oxford," in top hats, breeches, black 'coats and whiskers, drove up to the senate house of Cam- bridge University yesterday in a horse-drawn wagon to meet 15 "Gentlemen of. Iaius" (a college at Cambridge University) dressed in similar attire." In ceremonial procession they marched out into the playing field to battle at a new game cal- led "foot the ball" for a kilderkin (18 gallons of ale) which the winners presented to the losers. The game? It's similar to socce. but with some additional rules. Spectators arrived in Victorian or Edwardian costumes, carrying banners of political slogans of the last century, The match, controlled by a governor who used a gong when he wished to check the play, in- volved the use of three balls si- multaneously--one blue, one red and the other yellow. Players had to remove their hats before heading the ball and doffed their toppers to opponents they accidently tripped. yarn gy " ge ay AMA ELIR RESULTS O.H.A.

Hulclo - continued their winning ways Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock on the St. Andrew's United Church gymnasium when they defeated the "Esquires" of Captain Wm. Siksay, 49-38, It was a very interesting con- test, with the first period tied; in the second, the winners were the better by 7 points; but in the third frame, "Esquires" were tops by 3 points. But the "Alouettes" made it scoring the "Esquires" 13-6. Cap- tain Siksay uncovered a very proms- ising rookie, Andrew Frolick, who succeeded in notching 8 points for himself and the "Esquires", "ALOUETTES" -- Captain Chas. Hulcio 9 points; John Bak, N. Mroz- eck, Wm. Carnwith, Alan Starr; Z. Biglin 16 pts; Thos. Krawec 12 pts; Don Clark 12 pts. Total 49 points. "ESQUIRES"--Captain Wm. Sik- say 20 points; Don McGarry, Jno.

The present schedule concludes Dee, 16 because of Christmas holidays, ADDITIONAL SPORT ON Hamilton Tigers Still Undefeated By The Canadian Press Hamilton Tigers are still rid- ing far in front of the O.H.A, Se- nfor "A" group on the crest of an eightgame winning streak and Owen Sound Mohawks are still in the cellar as a result of the Ti- '| ger's 4-2 victory at Owen Sound last night, but Owen Sound fans saw considerably less difference between the teams than the 14- point difference in the standings would indicate, Well beaten by an 8-0 score in their first game against the un- beaten Tigers in Hamilton, the Mohawks outscored the visitors in two of the three periods last night and only a sparkling 'perform- ance by Art Childs in the Hamil- ton net staved off their determi- ned closing rally. The Tigers wrapped up 'the game in a 10-minute stretch of the second period with goals by Dillon Brady, Doug. Runions, Polly Miocinovich and Johnny Conick. But the Mohawks had more than their share of the play the rest of the way, with Kilpatrick shooting them into a first-period lead and Ken Dolson breaking through for their sec- ond counter late in the final frame, There was little cause for joy in St. Catharines last night as the erippled Falcons found themselves counting the number of players left in action and the number of goals scored against them by Galt Red Wings in an O.H.A. Junfor "A" tuss» with the totals coming out about even, With Captain Erie Ungef, lead- ing I'alcon scorer, signed up by an American Hockey League club and defenceman Fiery Gogan side-lined with a fractured wrist, the Falcons brought up, two ju- veniles to plug the gaps, only to lose forward Billy Frick early in the game when his hand was cut by Galt's Trent Anderson, Galt's 11-0 victory moved them into se place in t' team circuit, a point ahead of Barrie Flyers.

MIKE'S HERE TONIGHT -- SELLOUT EXPECTED "Mike" Jacobs Suffers Stroke, "Gravely Ill" New York, Dec. 4--(AP)~The life of boxing's most influential promo- ter--Michael Straus (Mike) Jacobs --hangs on the next 36 hours and their effect on the cerebral hemor- rhage that left him gravely ill and semi-conscious. The 66-year-old Jacobs, who bucked mighty Madison Square Garden at its peak of control, made it capitulate him and went on to rule the fight game for 10 years, was stricken late yesterday. Early today, doctors reported it was a question of time alone for the head of a $1,000000 a year business. "We're still in the woods," said Jacobs' personal physician, Dr. Vin- cent Nardiello. - "If the acute con- dition subsides in the 48 hours af- ter he was stricken, he'll make the grade, His blood pressure has come down, His pulse is better and he can swallow again. But he is in a grave coadition, and it is now en- tirely a matter of waiting." Just a month ago, the man who has controlled virtually every champion from heavyweight down to lightweight since he signed up the exclusive services of Joe Louis in the mid-30's, suffered a thrombis --a minor facial paralysis. That cleared up in 18 hours, and he re- turned Nov. 14 to his spacious Twentieth Century Sporting Club in Madison Square Garden. Dr, Nardiello believes that might have been a "tip off" of some more serious trouble. The man famed as the custodian of "Jacobs Beach" got his start when a newspaper circulation man- ager gave him two free tickets to a smalleclub fight, and someone paid him $2 for them, much to his amazement. This started him to ticket speculation and an assort- ment of promotions. He got into fistic promotion as somewhat of a "behind-the-scenes" associate of the late colorful Tex Rickard. After Rickard's death, the Garden, con- trolling boxing, had some differ- ences with the operators of the an- nual milk fund shows, who asked the operators to promote their fights, . He first was the Barney Ross- Billy Petrolle brawl in the Coliseum, far uptown in the Bronx, in 1935. N.H.L.
