THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1951 7X THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN BOWMANVILLE'S BASKETBALL SQUAD KEEPS ON WINNING AT HOME Bowmanville Inters Break Through Irish Jr. Quintet To Register 47-34 Victory Lg Big Three of Bowman- ville Cage Crew Prove Enough For Irish Jun- iors -- Rundle Tops For Winners; Mack- ness Best For Osha- wans -- Locals In Play-offs Oshawa's community-merchant- sponsored basketball team, the Flying Irish Juniors were defeated | by the second-place Bowmanville Intermediates-in Bowmanville last | night 'by a 47-34 count. Minus four of their regulars, the Irish nevertheless demonstrated a type of team play and shooting that held the good Bowmanville five within bounds for the greater | part of the game. | ~ Work To A Tie Early in the first period, the home club rolled into a big lead | that looked impossible to overtake . . . but impossible was just the word the Irish liked to hear. Using a .short-passing, slow-break game to draw out the enemy zone, they worked sleepers down the side- court; and sank lay-ups to earn a 19-19 tie with four minutes left in the half. Prominent in this work were "Chick" Phillips and Jack Mack- | ness, forwards, and Bob Booth, a | uard. ; | Bowmanville meanwhile - were | figuring ways and means of getting their star gunner, Rundle, into the | bucket. A plan was worked and it | succeeded. He played home point | after point till at the half, his club | -20. | i A to stop this bucket | play, the Irish switched checks all | over the floor during the half and | placed Rundle under much closer | surveillance. | Held To One Point The result was he scored but one | point in the last. half, that a fouled shot. In the first he ac- counted for 14 points, However in the switch, another man was left relatively free, Sullivan, and he whipped home four field goals and a free throw to provide what turned out to be a good bit of the margin | in the game. ' For the locals in the last half, | Mackness and Lloyd Sturch led the scoring. The latter uncorked a one- handed set shot that really dazzled the fans. Syd Gedge played a pro- minent game inthis period along with Irv. Harrell . . . both were rushing the enemy into their own efid of the floor. oe] 'Hanging onto their seven-point lead and adding six to fit, the Bowmanville outfit ended up with a 47-34 win. In free throw statistics, Bow- manville attempted 11 and sank three for a poor showing. Oshawa had four tries and clicked twice for a good average. | The local Juniors will likely be | playing their next game against POV.S. Seniors in OB.A. play- offs.

Only two games separate the Ilyers from second place after they bowled over the Pittsburgh Hor- nets last night at St. Louis, 5-1. It was the sixth straight home vie- tory, and seventh in their last eight starts. Indtanapolis, idle last night, and Pittsburgh are tied for second place, with the Cincinnati Mo- hawks in third place; "a game ahead of St. Couis. Cincinnati snapped a five-game losing streak, pouring in four goals in the open- ing period, and blasted the leading Clevéland Barons, 5-3.

Prime Minister St. Laurent was scheduled to start off the first of the teams at noon, with the others following at three-minute inter- vals. For the next three days," the teams will cover the same course, with the winner -- the team with the best combined time -- taking a $1,000 purse and a challenge tro- phy. The course starts and finishes on the frozen Rideau Canal near of the capital, It stretches south of the canal, swings west onto country roads, then makes a wide loop in the southern and southwestern fringes of the city before swinging back to the canal. Two Top Runners Top rivalry in pre-race specula- tion is between Wilf Lepine of Que- bec City, and Laird Ouellette of The Pas, Man. Lepine crossed the finish line first to capture the 1950 Ottawa Derby last year, while Ouellette placed first in the gruelling 144- mile, two-day open championship Dog Derby at The Pas last year.

Then the Bay scor- | ed the last goal from Orlando. | | RAPID ROBERTS REVIEW ON SPORT Cd Succumbing to the great play of another team, even though they are playing well too, seems to have become a habit of the Irish Junior bas- ketball club in its last couple of outings. Last night in Bowmanville they dropped a 47-34 decision and yet looked, at times, on a par with the winners, = The homesters were of course an older crew and this experience showed as they worked their high scorers into position during the first period to gain a lead they never re- linquished. The Irish used but six men last night. Four of the team were 'caught in the swirl of nightshift work. Even so, the boys (all under 20), showéd the enemy (no age limit) some fine passing and shooting. We, as coach, were in fine form too . . . for the other side. To explain this, one must real. ize that a coach is & character who must remain calm and bloodless throughout a game while his boys make great or (censored) plays. When the latter type occur, the: Irish blood in our veins won't remain still, and we yelp. Our team, wishing to please us, naturally look around to see wot hoppen. Just as natural ly, the other outfit scores again: We play mumbly-peg with handfuls of our hair. Over comes a guy with a black and white shirt and declares us technically ineligible to yelp. We turn peculiar shades of vio- let but this time remain still. We have finally realized our boner . so had the club. After the game, they voted us, "enemy ace" for the evening. Hither and Yon Dept.--Some players and students of both the Central and O.C.V.I. were spectators at the Varsity Blues game with U. of Buffalo. The U.B. team defeated the Toron- to collegians on Mutual Street Arena court by a 74-60 count. A very free-wheeling game with lots of scoring and lots of fun. Down in Belleville, the Osh- awa Bees ran into their jinx team of the year , . . and last year for that matter, Belleville Rockets. They led 2-1 at the end of the first, saw a 2-2 tie in the second and lost on a third period tally by Trumble. The goal was a screen-shot with less than five minutes to go. Our guys played a fair game we'd say. Hyar at home, we hear the Oshawa Grads dropped the duke to the Cobourg Legion. Acrording to all reports the thing that won the game was a field goal scored after time was out in the game. Quite a few local players had fonled out of the game by the end and "the team was playing with but four men when the final whis- tle blue. The win puts Cobourg into a first-place tie with Peterboro. Vv CHECKLETS-- Don McEwen, the Ottawa track star now studying in the U.S. at Mich« igan State, is rated by the of- ficials of the AAU. as a dist- ance man who'll soon equal the great Don Gerhmann. The latter is having a great year on the boards this winter season and has made Fred Wilt, the FBI. ace bow before his fa- mous finishing kick, McEwen cracked the world's record in running a 4.11 mile leg for Michigan in a medley relay. Eric Kofmel, another middle distance runner who raced with Earl Deacon at the OC.V.I. some years back, copped first place in the 220-yard dash for SPS. in the University of To- ronto's big indoor meet some days back. Eric made the win in the time of 25 seconds flat. Minneapolis Lakers are hit- ting peak stride and ru away with the Western Divis- ion of the National Basketball Association. The team now lead the second place Rochester Roy- als by four full games. George "Specs" Mikan led the team to their latest win with a 29-point last period spurt . . . wow! "Happy" Chandler may not feel too secure in his chair as Commissioner of baseball if he listens to the latest rumor from the anti-Chandlerite faction. They say they have (no names were metioned in connection with the first "they") added two more names to the voters against "Hap," and there- fore have more than enough to oust the present Czar of the game. « « « by Bob Rife Ski Championships At North Bay, Sat.
