PAGE TEN THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1951 T SNAPSHOTS 63) By Gro. H. CampreLL There are two Junior "A" games on the books for tonight, with Barrie playing up at .Stratfordsand St. Catharines visiting the Guelph Biltmores. Whether or not the Kroehlers can get revenge upon the Flyers for that licking they took up in Barrie on Wednesday night, is hard to say but certainly both will be trying to win. Barrie moves into Windsor tomorrow night for a game and Stratford goes to Water- loo so while Kroehlers might collect two points s week, Barrie has to step lively if they want to get any more. If y can win in Strat ford tonight, they'll be tied with Marlboros for first place and then a win over Windsor on Saturday would really put "Hap" Emms' boys up at the top. Marlies play no games tonight or Saturday but on Sunday afternoon they play St. Mike's. We'd like to see the Teepees win up in Guelph tonight -- then Biltmores wouldn't in present one-point lead over the Generals. Guelph here tomorrow night, they'll have a good chance of moving into fourth place alone. --GPOR * +> +* 'This game with the Guelph Biltmores will be quite some shucks tomorrow might. We think this is the most promising Saturday night attraction there has been here since away back in the middle of December when Windsor paid their last visit. Guelph Biltmores have improved greatly in recent weeks and have started to show signs of the power that brought them the Junior "A" championship last spring. On the other hand, the Generals didn't collect many points up in Windsor on Wednesday night and there are a few of the local lads will be going right out after goals and mere goals, in this game here tomorrow night. The "Hat- ters" will try to keep close tab on Delvecchio and Jankowski while the Generals will also be watching Ken Laufman, the Guelph ace who is at present third in the OH.A. Junior "A" point race -- and Just think, Guelph wanted to "sell" him early in the season. This year's Junior hockey scramble is the keenest it has ever been with - a bitter struggle being waged-for every two points. The game here saturday night is certain to be a siszler and if friend Roy Mason 1s in top form, there's bound to be plenty of side-lights, should the officials do anything which Manager Roy considers detrimental to his Blutmores, * * + The victory of the Oshawa Junior Bees down in Peterboro on Wednesday night indicates quite clearly that the local "young brothers" their | If the Generals can take | By EDGAR SIMON Canadian Press Staff Writer Chances are that the man who has most to do with winning the Stanley Cup won't lace on a skate all season, He'll be the white-coated indivi- dual who does the speediest job of stitching a cut, setting a bone or taking the miteries out of a back in order to get some ailing "sp-notcher back on the ice in time for the Big Game, The hero might be the doctor who fixed up Gordie Howe after the big right-winger suffered a serious head injury in last year's play-offs. Howe, whose life appeared in dan- ger for a time after he was hurt, now leads the National Hockey Lea- gue in scoring, : Calling All Doctors Or it conceivably could be the practioner now shaking his head sadly over Edgar LaPrade's broken leg, if he could perform the near- miracle that would have the New York smoothie back in shape for the stretch drive. All season long, one team after another has found that injuries can be murder. Teke Montreal Canadiens. With Maurice Richard firing goals from all angles, they were zooming into a. contending spot with 'three wins in four tries. Last night the Rock- et sat it out with. a gharleyhorse and they absorbed a 5-2 defeat from Toronto Maple Leals on their own home les, Take icago Black Hawks. They lost Jack Stewart, their ace de- fenceman, when an injury sent him into retirement early in the sea- son. Last night they went through their 16th straight game without a victory--a 3-2 loss to te league- leading Detroit Red Wings.

In the first contest which gets underway at 800 am. the second-place Brooklin Club will do battle against Victory Pee Wees. Brooklin at the present time are running in high gear as they have three wins to their credit in as many starts. Victory Pee Wees are at present holding down fourth spot in the standing, half a game behind Con- naught. In the second game ot 840 am. the up and coming Con- naught Pee Wees will be going all out to strengthen their hold on third place. Connaught will have' their hands full with the North Oshawa boys, as the team from the North improves every game out, The Connaught Club has a very strong defence with Westfall, Tay- lor and a rookie forward by the name of George Pollock, who play- ed his first game last week and celebrated his first appearance by potting a goal. Coach Bob Andrews will have his Rundle Pee Wees primed for their game with Woodview at 9.20 am. Rundle at present have a perfect | record with four wins and no de- | feats. Woodview, on the other | hand, are looking for their first | win. Reports from the Woodview | camp say that there might be a big | upset in this game as Woodview Club has been playing better hoc- key than their record shows. {| Butch Andrews, who tends the | twine for Rundle, has a present | the best record for the goalies in | the league.

He said in an interview that the Big Four and western conference should operate | &s divisions of one acknowledged professional league. Commissioners for each division would, for the present, have full power over all opera- tions. After all the wrinkles are ironed out, probably in two years, one commissioner with jurisdiction over both eastern and western divisions ahould be appointed, Cradock added. He emphasized the idea in his! personal view and' that he would not offically propose it at the Big Four annual meeting in Toronto Saturday. However, the subject might come | up for discussion -- as it had last year. Gradock said his year as Big Four president has convinced him the Big Four and western conference can't be run properly with no one having full power as "boss." "Football is a big business in Canada now," Cradock said. "It is getting bigger | each year and it's about time the fellows running the game make up| their minds that it has to be operated like a business . . . The memory of George Hainsworth, one-time National Hockey League goalie with Mon- treal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs, will be perpetuated in a! George Hainsworth Trophy, it was announced Thursday in Kitchener. Hainsworth, a Kitchener alderman, was killed in an automobile acci- dent last fall. Bobby Bauer, manager of the Kitchener-Waterloo Dutch- men of the Ontario Hockey Association major series, said the Trophy is being given for presentation to the Kitchener district player in O.H.A. heckey judged most valuable to his team each year. * * 4 Lew Hayman, Genera] Manager of Montreal Alouettes of the Big Four Football League, said last night he will ask the league for per- mission to seek the 1951 Grey Cup football champion game for Montreal, Hayman said he will ing the, matter before Big Four delegates at | their two-day conference that opens in Toronto . . . Three oldtime | hockey players were publicly acclaimed last night and handed scrolls | awarding them places in horkey's hall of fame. The three are Mike | Grant, Newsy Lalonde and Joe Malone. The presentation of the scrolls | was made between the first and second periods of the Toronto-Montreal National Hockey League game, The recipients received the scrolls from | J. R.
