PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE TUESDAY, DECEMBER '10, 1946 Z 7 3 Z 7% 7 7 Principals in the main bout of the amateur fight card at Toronto's Massey Hall last night, are shown above having a little chit-chat "before the battle, Mother." Southpaw Harry Goulding (left) of Oshawa and Val Mancuso (right) of Toronto, each had an impresiiye record before last night's session, Goulding took the first round, Mancuso the second and then the referee called it "no contest" when Mancuso couldn't continue in the 3rd, due to a cut over his eye. His reason was that the cut had not been inflicted by a clean blow but by Goulding's head, when he bounced back off the ropes, during a previous exchange. Up until then, the bout was headed to be a sizzler. They'll likely go again, before very long. H. NAPSHOTS Cane) -- Is, this season's 3-2 Ugh! It begins to look as if the Oshawa Genera : n's | edition, are a bunch of homeing-pigeons, "homers," that: is!

Oshawa Generals drop- ped one in Hamilton last night to an inspired Ambitious City pack of Juniors who skated like fiends and checked the same way for fifty min- utes of the game and then hung on grimly to eke out their 1-goal mar- gin for the biggest upset of the season, They only had about 300 fans on hand to witness the game and it's a matter of conjecture which group was AN most surprised, the Oshawa contingent, the Hamilton fans or the Szabos. Deserved Their Win They earned their win too. They started out like so many balls-of=- fire, Phil Samis drew a penalty be- fore the game was two minutes old and while he was sojourning in the ¢in- bin, Pierre Cadieux, hero of the Hamilton fans, popped in a pass from Barnes, past Crowdis to make Generals were kinda lucky at that to get 4 points out of that game. !.t' 1-0 and that's how the period St. Mike's | prided. They checked the Generals | . olw cision to Hamilton 9, | at every turn and some of the Osh- | in Toronto but last night they dropped a 3-2 decision Zittile | awa boys didn't require much | They lost in Barrie, lost. in Stratford and of course, lost to a two-man Junior team if we ever saw one that has improve under their new coach, "Ab" Conick. However, Hamilton lost in St. ' Kitts 6-3 on Saturday night and it was the first game the Falcons have | won this season. Then last night, Hamilton defeats Oshawa Generals | 3-2 for he biggest upset of 'the season. Their fans, they had about | 300 on hand, were tickled to death and even the players and everyone else was surprised. &* LJ] * * We do not intend to make any alibis for the Oshawa defeat Ist night. If thy couldn't beat a team of Hamilton's calibre by at least three goals, then they don't deserve to win, regardless of the "breaks." Goalie DeCourcey and centre-ice star Pierre Cadieux, were the two men who won the game for Hamilton. They were terrific with the goalie being sensational throughout and Cadieux skating like a speedball all the way. He had some help from Wynsynski and Prieur but for the most part, it was a one-man show against the Generals. Hamilton opened with a blistering pace and they checked the Generals at every move, hurried their plays and wouldn't give them time to get set when shooting at the net. Hamilton's 3rd goal was scored with DeLory tangled up with Louie Crowdis, inside the Oshawa crease, in fact, part way in the net. Ref. "Pat" Patterson stated after that the Oshawa goalie was lying on top of DeLory, when we suggested DeLory was top man of the tangle. At any rate, his statement was an admission that a Hamilton man was in the crease, when the goal was fired into the nets, but it was allowed, despite vigorous Oshawa protests, + * i LJ Penalties were about even, but there weren't enough of them. Both teams carried, sticks high, did some unnecessary boarding and elbowing | and should have had more penalties. Phil Samis of Oshawa was one | who could have been and should have been chased more often but he wasn't alone. . Both teams had their offenders, Oshawa's big holler was on what would have been the 3rd and tying goal, late in the 3rd period. Goalie DeCourcey reached back into the net for the puck, following a scramble, but the light didn't flash. The goal-judge, at the time, was about ten feet away from the net. A number of Hamilton rooters, one of whem we would name but it might be embarassing for him as he is in business there, stated after the game that while he was | cheering for Hamilton to win, he still saw the puck "about six inches | over the gola-line." However, what's the use of talking. It's over now and the Generals didn't deserve to win. Several of them, Milliard, Curik, Cerisino and others, took far too long getting their shots away. They wanted to label them before shooting and by that time DeCourcey was all set. Bric Pogue was Oshawa's best, worked hard all the way and carried his line practically without aid. | ow» +* LJ L 3 The more you look at the Junior picture, the more it looks as if it's going to be a hectic race before the various playoff positions are decided. That loss last night may mean that the Generals finish a step lower in the final results than they would have done. Galt should win 4 points tonight and take over undisputed possession of 2nd place. That wouldn't be so bad but on "feeling out" some of the other hockey-minded boys around the circuit, we find a large number who concur with our own private opinion, namely that Stratford Kroehlers have the team to watch. Barrie, Galt and St. Mike's are all rated highly, so are the Generals, by the other teams, but all down the line, Stratford is attracting attention. Galt comes here this Saturday night and if the Generals can win this one, they'll be back in stride again. However, they've got to start winning some points away from home, or they'll have a very ordinary record when it's all over, . + +* + SPORT SHORTS; Rudy Grass has been named as the 1946 winner of The Johnny Copp Memorial Trophy, for all-round athletic prominence, ability and sportsmanship, the top award at University of Toronto . , .

Frank Selke | checking, either, Quite a few of the Oshawa crew were guilty of indif- ferent play and bad mistakes, Only Oshawan to come up, with an especially good game and hard- working effort, was Eric Pogue, who tried hard throughout, passed the puck better than usual and stuck to his knitting. He drew one pen- alty that he shouldn't have got, for the Hamilton player tried to jump over his arm and fell. Don Bauer was another Oshawa player who worked hard throughout. MacKay scored Oshawa's first goal! in the second period, after Hamilton had made it 2-0 after the first few sec- onds, on a sloppy shot that car- omed off Cameron's body then glanced off Crowdis into the net. MacKay's was a ganging-act shot through a maize of players, on a pass from Hildebrand. A Couple of Breaks In the third period, the Hamilton team slowed down to a walk. They were so tired they could barely shoot the puck up the ice, which they 'tried at every opportunity for the last 10 minutes, Hamilton's third goal, scored by Bill. Wynyski was scored with Val DeLory, former St. Kitts and Tor- onto Junior, tangled up with Louis Crowdis, in the Oshawa goal-crease and net. Ref, Patterson ruled it a goal, despite the protests of Crowdis, Samis and the other Oshawans. At the other end, after Ike Hilde- brand had slapped in Curik's pass for the cleanest goal of the night, Oshawa got another one, at least they put the puck inside the cage, about 5 inches over the line, Goalie De Courcey, the Hamilton goalie, reached behind and hauled it out during the scramble and the red light didn't go on. Ref. Patterson saw enough ap- parently' to think that everything wasn't according to Hoyle but he didn't over-rule the goal-judge. The Hamilton goal-judge, who was about 8 feet from his proper position when the affair took place incident- ally, was the brother of the Hamil- ton team's manager, Hamilton fans, after the game, stated that in their opinions, it was a good goal. ther than Pogue and Bauer, Oshawa had nobody earning special mention. Pierre Cadieux and goalie DeCourcey, the two-man show for Hamilton, were the stars in the homester's victory, with Prieur, Wynyski and Barnes all to the fore. | The Summary Penalties--Samis, Prieur, Lowe, Cadieux ann Mackay.

Frank Selke Comes Up With An Idea to Protect Juniors Main Bout Is Called 'No Go' | Toronto, Dec. 10--(CP) -- While | 2, fight fans roared disapproval last night, referee Bobby Lawrence called the main event "no contest" as Toronto's Val Mancuso sat in his corner with blood flowing from an open wound above his right eye after two bruising rounds of a sched- uled five-round with Harry Hould- ing of Oshawa, Ont. The damage was done when Goulding accidentally struck Man- cuso with his head when he bounc- ed off the ropes in the second round, Honors were about even at the'ime. The semi-final also failed to go the distance as Lawrence awarded a technical knockout to Larry Simons of Brantford after he opened a gash over the eye of Joe Cardinal of Oshawa in the fourth round. Mike Garlish of Hamilton scored an upset when he scored a popular live-round decision over Al Hard- sand of Toronto in one of the pre- liminaries.

Pierre Cadieux scored the first Szabo goal and set up the other two for Bill Wysynski to take in-| dividual scoring honors, McKay and Hildebrand counted for the Generals.
