Thinking back over the tour- ney, there were a lot of people who should be congratulated for the time and effort they ex- pended on the series to make it the great success it was. First and foremost, we'd like to thank Simcoe Hall . . . their staff and the Women's Welfare League for allowing the tourney to be held during the holiday period. Secondly, we like to show our appreciation to the three hard- working referees who nandled the games, and incidentally did such a great job of it. Bill Dell, Ron Bilsky and Don Seeley really earned their vote of thanks. The games were, almost all of them, closely contested . . . which makes the job of official- ling that much more difficult . and the tempers of the contestants that much shorter. On the publicity end of thin~=' our thanks to the T-G and our readers and to CKLB who went all out to help us. And a vote to the doormen, scorers and timers who helped us in getting the games across to the spectators . . . and last but not least all you swell people who struggled through the drifts to make the tourney the biggest basketba!ll event in many years. vr There is a big hockey night i up on Monday, January 7th, when the Oshawa Generals and Toronto Peoples put on their annual exhibition tussle. The game will be part of 'a triple-header at the Arena to celebrate what the Junior Chamber of Commerce calls Young Oshawa Night. Former Oshawa Generals with Peoples (including Barker, Héoper, Wilson, Dafoe, Nelson and Robinson) will be along to make the game a real crowd- pleaser. Also along will be the other Oshawa stars of other years . . . senior variety . .. Jack Tisdall and Ab Barnes. Doug Williams, the Whitby product who went to Stratford Krochlers last year, is also play- ing for Peoples and should bring out a section of the County Town population. The other two games that night will see Oshawa's Juvenile Stars meeting the Whitby An- derson Box Juniors and the Oshawa Midget Stars play the Oshawa Bantam Stars. Which same games will give the fans an idea of how the City League brings along young players for Junior "A" ranks. 'I'hose games w.il also bring cut a Ist of proud moms and dads.

PRO AVERAGE | | Chicago.--In an average profes- | | sional football game, a team exe- cutes 39 rushing plays and tries 30 forward passes. ¥ The half - way mark of the 1951- it's becoming increasingly evident there isn't a club to stop Detroit Red Wings from winning their fourth straight league title. The Wings go into tonight's game at home against Montreal Canadiens 12 points ahead of Tor- | onto Maple Leafs who were able | to gain only one point on Detroit | in weekend games. It was a standoff in the pennant race Saturday night as both Detroit and Toronto came up with victor- ies. The Red Wings whipped their "cousins," Chicago Black Hawks 3-1 and Leafs made it 4-0 over Boston Bruins. !

The third - place Canadiens went wild against the Rangers before Senick Paces Quakers Win Over Seattle George Senick, a problem child when he played for Seaftle Iron- men, proved an even greater thorn in their side last night by scoring three goals, including the winner, to pace Saskatoon Quakers to an 8:5 Pacific Coast Hockey League victory over the host Ironmen. It was Seattle's third straight licking at the hands of the prairie men. The win stretched Saska -|° toon's second-place margin: over Seaftle to five points in the league standings. The last-place Calgary Stampe- ders played inhospitable hosts to Edmonton Flyers Saturday night and licked the team from tke oil country 5-4. Jack Miller led the Calgary attack with two goals. In another Saturday night fixture the Royals were at home in New Westminster to Vancouver Can - ucks. The visitors got licked 4-2. a 14,270 crowd at Monireal Satur- day.

Gordie Howe scored two third- period goals in Detroit's 3-1 vic- tary over the Hawks -- their sixth straight triumph at home and the sixth in seven starts against Chi- cago. Marty Pavelich netted the other for the Wings while rookie Steve Hyrmnak scored for Chicago. The Boston - Toronto game was a bruiser with referee Bill Storey handing out 10 minor and four major penalties -- all in the second and third periods. Boston's E4 Kryzanowski and Toronto's Jimmy Thomson provided the fireworks with a couple of clashes. The hockey was provided by Bentley and Danny Lewicki. Bent- ley scored a pair and Lewicki received credit for three assists. The other Toronto goals were scored by 8id Smith and Gus Mortson.
