b THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1946 § LEFT WING FORWARD STAR ON THE DETROIT RED WINGS eos CHECKING ACCOUNT" "1S ONE OF THE HEALTHIEST INTHE GAME PORT : , NAPSHOTS camper Oshawa Generals have two games away from home this week, playing up in Stratford tonight and back up that way, to Galt, on Saturday night. Legionnaires have an Inter. "A" game against Kitchener on Friday night, in Galt. This leaves the local hockey fans without much of their favorite entertainment at the Oshawa Arena this week but we could, of course, recommend the "City League" games tomorrow night. The Generals visit Stratford tonight and we don't know what to expect. Stratford looked real good here in Oshawa (most visiting teams play their best hockey here) but since then the Kroehlers have lost two games to alleged "weak sisters," St. Catharines and Windsor, re- spectively. Maybe the Kroehlers were having "off nights," in which case it's only to be expetted that tonight they'll come up with a real good game. On the other hand, if the Kroehlers are having other troubles, then anything could happen tonight. + + * * Only one other game is on the books for tonight, with Marlies visiting Barrie Flyers for one of those crucial 4-point games that mean so much in the standing race. The way things are going right now, we'll know better after we hear the result of that 4-point game in Barrie, it looks as if the O.H.A. could save themselves a lot of Paris Case May Alert Sport Fans By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Press Staff Writer New York, Dec. 18--(CP)--The tapped telephone wires which led to the arrestof 28-year-old Alvin J. Paris may be less valuable to the au- is may be less valuable to the au- thorities in the case against the Broadway man-about-town than to the United States sporting public as a spotlight on the wartime growth of illicit gambling . . . The bribery charges against Paris, described by police as front man for a New Jer- sey betting syndicate of "consider- able means", conceivably might spark a drive to remove the evils of an "industry" whose activities ec- clipse the scope of bootlegging . . . . In this post-war era betting ranks ahead of motion pictures, steel and automobiles for financial turnover, with devotion to the dollar replac- ing the starry-eyed adulation for sports heroes which marked the golden age of the "20s. , "WASHED", BUT NOT CLEAN The performers still draw a little play in the papers and such sport- ing frills as statistics and strategy aren't overlooked altogether, but the sharp-faced men with the pow- erful bankrolls have moved into the arenas and auditoriums with such authority that betting terms re- quire a special section in the glos- sary of sport ... The bull-rings sound now with soft-spoken terms like "wash" and "6-5, give-or-take 10 points the Bears" . . , Observers estimate between $20,000,000 and $100,000,000 was wagered on last Sunday's championship between Chicago Bears and New York Giants, the game Paris is charged with attempting to fix .... The Bears were rated 10 points better than the Giants and the familiar 6- 5 odds meant that the speculator, whether he liked the Giants or the Bears, put up $6 and the bookmak- er laid $5, with a 10-point margin accorded the better if he took New York , . .. since the final score was 24-14 for Chicago, the 10-point wagering margin added to the giant total made the betting score 24-24, Thus cancelling all bets and creat- ing a bookmakers term a "wash", Sport Shorts From Britain trouble by taking the team standing on New Year's Day amd pt ing it as final for the entire schedule. Now, of course, this will bring forth a storm of protest from various other Junior "A" sport scribes--but ah, that's why we say such things, and besides, clip the Junior O.H.A, standing on New Year's Day and when March comes in like either the lion or lamb, just see how far it's out. Incidentally, there are no more Junior "A" games this week until Saturday and then after that, no more until the following Friday. By New Years night, most of the Junior "A" teams will be halfway through their schedule. Generals go to St. Kitts on Friday, Dec, 27 and play the Falcons right back here on the Saturday night following and that will give Oshawa a full round of the loop. . * * +» SHORT BITS:--Alvin J. Paris, on $25,000 bail on charge of ai- tempting to bribe two N.Y. Giants pro rugby backfield stars, is apt to get more than he bargained for--and Chicago Bears won the game any- way. Wonder if "the boys" who were "in" on the intended "fix", made the mistake of "laying off" their big bets when it became public knowl edge that bribery attempts had been made.

The issue is: when is a horse race not a race; and if a race is declared a "no race," what becomes of the bets? The poser was set for the Na- tional Hunt Club committee when galloped home in front at Wolver- hampton in a race that was not officially started. Bill Newham, who assists Official Starter Capt. P.

"I looked around for Vivian, but as I couldn't see him I took the liberty of starting the race myself," he said. One minute after the start of the race, Starter Vivian, astride his pony, was hurrying toward the starting gate. Immediately the race was over, Vitement's rider weighed in and bets were settled, but a loud squawk was registered by people who wager- ed on the odds-on favorite Comique.

Deschambeault of Calgary, western |280 By CLARENCE YOUNG Central Press Canadian Correspondent - Columbus, O.--A dismal failure in his short--very short--career as a professional baseball player, George McNeal Trautman, new boss of the minor leagues, has been outstand- ingly successful as an executive in the national pastime. The Columbus baseball man, former general manager of the De- troit Tigers, was recently elected to a five-year term, at an annual salary of $25,000, as commissioner of baseball's minor leagues. Even George -- sometimes called "Red" because of his flaming, al- though fading, locks of hair--has to laugh as he recalls his one attempt to play professional ball. It was in the summer of 1915 and '| Trautman, having just completed his career and studies at Ohio State university, decided to take a vaca- tion and visit a brother, Fred, who was pitching for the Hartford, Conn., club. The Hartford team was in need of players that day and George was pressed into service. Wearing a turtle-neck sweater, he was as- signed to centre-field. "Red" had quite a time of it--both at bat and in the field., He's rather vague on details, but he believes that he struck out three times. Afield, the newly elected minor league czar permitted two easy fly balls go for extra base hits. Frank Delahanty was managing Hartford at the time and young Trautman decided that a profes- sional baseball career as a player was not for him when, as he was passing the grandstand between in- 7ings, he heard a raspy-voiced fan shout: "Hey, Delahanty, where did you get that coal miner?" Trautman can't recall whether he signed a contract with Hartford or "RED" TRAUTMAN not. Baseball clubs weren't too par- ticular about such matters in those days, he says, adding: "It doesn't make any difference. Delahanty would have torn it up that night anyway." In his college days at Ohio State, Trautman was the pitching end of a battery with Senator-elect John W. Bricker. Veteran baseball men tell the story that Bricker was at- tracting major league attention but, they say, his ability as a catcher could not be accurately appraised as Trautman was so wild he was unable to get the ball over the plate when scouts from the big show were in the stands. Trautman, however, brands the yarn as "one of those stories that sound pretty good at banquets." Bricker is non-committal. Following his graduation from Ohio State, "Red" dilly-dallied around in the coaching and physic- al education field at his alma mater, but eventually became asso- clated with the Columbus Chamber of Commerce as the director of its convention and publicity bureau. Trautman's promotional ability in that position earned for him a bid from Branch Rickey to enter or- ganized baseball as president of the Columbus Red Birds, a St. Louis Cardinal farm, in 1933. Rickey couldn't have selected a better man as the successor to L. |S. (Red) MacPhail. The only fly in the soup was that Trautman was too good. He remained on the job only three years until the American association made him its president After 10 seasons at the helm of the A.A, Trautman only this year succeeded Jack Zeller as executive vice-president and general man- ager of the Detroit Tigers. Actually, the post as minor league czar is not a promotion for him, since at Detroit he was collecting as big if not a bigger salary than the $25,000 he will get as minor league boss. Along with his promotional talent, he also owns a flair for showman- ship and possesses the ability to make friends easily--and keep them. At one/time, Trautman was men- tioned for the athletic directorship at Ohio State, but he has gone far beyond that assignment now. Already, he is being "boomed" by friends for the position of base- ball"s high commissioner, if and when A. B. (Happy) Chandler ever resigns or retires. No star at his favorite--baseball-- Trautman is "better than a green hand" in bridge and he often turns in a round of golf that is flirting with par. The diamond game's new minor league chief boasts of two holes-in-one.

LOUIS TEAM TIES HERSHEY 2-2 By The Canadian Press Bob Davidson, new. temporary coach of St. Louis Flyers, cellar team of the western division of the American Hockey League, says that some conditioning and new plays "will make a difference" in the team--and he may be right. At least he started off right last night, piloting the Flyers into a 2-2 tie with Hershey Bears, Eastern Division leaders, in his first game as St. Louls coach since coming from Toronto to replace Rah Taylor. Pat McCreavy brought home both Flyers' counts -- the second less than two minutes before the end of play to guarantee a tie and the first on an assist from Pozzo and Harvey Fraser in the first stanza. Lloyd Gronsdahl and Frank Mario chalked up the Hershey tallies, Ottawa Puck Stars Expected in Buffalo Byffalo, N.Y., Dec. 18 -- (CP) -- Dr. James. J. Allinger, vice-presi- dent of the Buffalo Hockey Club of the American Hockey League, said last night that two Ottawa hockey players were expected to arrive here today for a trial with the pro club. He identified them as Jimmy Mec- Fadden, top-scoring centre star for Ottawa Senators in the Quebec Senior Hockey League, and Les Hickey, starry Senators right-winger. The club officials said that should they make the grade they will see service with the Buffalo squad against Providence Reds here to- night. In Ottawa yesterday, officials of the Senators club said the departure of the two players followed a visit last week by Hap Emms, Bisons scout. It was believed that if they did not make the grade they would play for Houston Skippers, Bison farm club in the United States Hockey League. By The Canadian Press UEBEC OVINCIAL Cornwall 6, Verdun 4. Victoriaville 3, St. Hyacinthe 0, O.H.A. INTERMEDIATE Kitchener 6, St. Catharines Fy Chihawks Are Still Needing New 'Players By JACK MITCHELL Canadian Press Staff Writer With the bounty on live player talent leaving hardly a corner-lot rink unscouted, the necessity of get- ting there "first with the most" was emphasized today in the plight of the National Hockey League's Chi- cago Black Hawks. The $100,000 bait that owner Bill Tobin recently dangled for ready- made players to strengthen his last- place team fell on deaf ears. In ef- fect, the other five clubs told him that players were too hard to find these days -- they had to be caught young and weaned carefully. The result was that the Hawks had to be content with one or two minor trades, in which player was traded for player. If money were the big talking points in professional hockey these days, the Hawks would probably be at the top of 'the standing instead of the bottom. With the biggest rink in the circuit, gate admissions alone from the crowds of 17,000 and more than pack it for almost every game should see to that. Instead, the Hawks meet up with Detroit Red Wings tonight as the "hungriest" team in the loop with their record of one victory and a tie in the last 11 starts. The Red Wings, tied for fourth with New York Rangers, should prove no easy touch for Jack Adams' team is as victory-starved as the their recent record look a little better. It was Nov. 27 since Chicago last scored a victory, Nov. 23 since Detroit last finished on the long end of the count. Since then, however, the Red Wings have played three ties, one a scoreless deadlock with the Hawks themselves in their last meeting. With the league-leading Toronto Maple Leafs and the second-place Montreal Canadiens, the other game gives Boston Bruins a chance to close in in third position. The in-and-out Bruins play host to New York's Rangers and this one also should prove no soft touch. The Rangers are still smarting from the double week-end losses that cut their winning streak short. Frank Erne Is In New York and Not Dead Either New York, Dec. 18 -- (CP) -- Frank Erne glanced today at news- paper clippings reporting his death in an automobile accident, chuckled, and said: "I'm not ready for the slab yet." Now a fuel salesman, the 71-year- old man who won the United States lightweight boxing championship from Kid Lavigne in 1900 and lost it to Joe Gans two years later at the International Athletic Club in Fort Erie, Ont. said he still is "in the best of health" and hopes to live to be 90. Explaining published reports Sat- urday of his "death" in Sanbernar- dino, Calif., Erne said that two years ago he learned that an admirer in California was "going around saying he was me." The admirer, it developed, was Frank Ellsworth, a hospital cook whose pockets were found stuffed with clippings about the real Frank Erne. Erne, who once fought against George Dixon, Young Griffo and Terry McGovern, retired from pro- fessional boxing in 1905 after 13 years and 115 bouts. Buffalo Cagers to Sell Shares, Offset Financial Problem Buffalo, N.Y., Dec. 18 -- (AP) -- Buffalo Bisons of the National Bas- ketball League seek to overcome a financial loss by offering club shares for sale and free tickets to buyers. General Manager Leo F. Ferris announced yesterday that the team has "suffered a financial loss" and that the ticket gift was aimed at "putting more people in Memorial Auditorium." "We're offering 30 of our 100 shares for sale at $1,000 apiece and with each share goes 1,000 tax free tickets to our next two home games Dec. 25 and 28," said Ferris. He added that "we've drawn only 15,000 in our last six games." Bisons have. dropped seven of 11 league games and rank fourth in the cir- cuit's six-club Eastern Division. Hawks, although several ties make, Weston Aircraft Defeats "'Times" GENERALS AWAY FROM HOME TWICE THIS WEEK "Red" Trautman Boss Of Minors, Was 'Failure' As A Ball Player In OIHL pone. Season's play. in the Oshawa In- dustrial loop got under way last night at the Arena with Weston Aircraft taking a close decision from The Times by a score of 6-4. It was a hard-fought contest all the way, with The Times out in front until the last period of play. The Times was unable to hold the fort against the third period surge by the Flyers, who over came an early two goal deficit to snag the league's first two points, The Times led 2-1 at the end of the first period and 3-2 at the close of the second. The Flyers then tied it up and went ahead on a tally by Hancock early in the third stanza. With the score 4-3 in Wes- ton's favor, Salmers came back for The Times and again tied the count. The break came for the Flyers when Norm Allan popped a fluke into the north-end met and after that Weston was never headed, net- ting their final marker late in the period. The tie-breaker came when Allan was about 20 feet to the left hand side of the net. He lobbed one at Johnson in The Times' net. The puck hit Johnson on the shoul- der and shot straight upward. Johnson looked to his right to see where the disc had gone, could not see it and moved his head sharply to the left to see if it had bounded back to the other side. Just as he turned his head, the puck dropped vertically down and deflected off his chin into the net. The game was cleanly fought with only one penalty handed out, that to Westons' Hancock. The Flyers showed their disdain and scored on a breakaway while short handed as The Times put on the pressure. Summary , THE TIMES -- Goal, Bob John son; Defence, J. Baxter, W. Sajac; Forwards, F.

The Australians declared early to- day after a loss of eight wickets. England scored 255 runs in its first innings for an all-over total of 503 runs to date. Australia won the first match of the best-of-five series for 'The Ashes," symbol of cricket suprem- acy, by a wide margin. Still behind the Aussies and with the "Down Under" team having an- other turn at bat, England now is seeking a draw in the second match. Australia yesterday ran up 571 runs for the loss of six wickets--the highest score ever made by an Aus- tralian team in test matches in the Commonwealth. The Aussies continued batting to- day and took the score to 659 before declaring -- thus breaking another record recently set in the first test match when Australia racked up 645 runs in one inning.
