PAGE TEN THE DAILY T IMES-CAZETTE WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1952" 'There was only the one Junior "A" game played last night and it proved an upset. Kitchener Greenshirts, playing on their home ice, nosed out the Guelph Biltmores 6-5 in an overtime tussle. Defeat hurt the second-place "Hatters" in that it gives them one less chance to overtake the league-leading Toronto Marlboros and incidentally, Bilt- mores are only six points ahead of St. Mike's at present and it wouldn't do for them to lose too many more games, if they hope to retain second slot. Owen Sound Mercurys defeated Kitchener-Waterloo Plying Dutch- men last night and Sarnia Sailors tied with Hamilton Tigers. Four Junior "A" games are on the list for tonight with Barrie at St. Mike's and Kitchener at Marlboros; Galt at Windsor and St. Catharines at Waterloo, Oshawa Generals are not booked to play until Saturday night when the Guelph Biltmores come here. After losing last night in Kit- chener, the Hatters will be just about as mad as that and if they lose on their home ice Friday night, to the visiting St. Mike's then they really will come to Oshawa on Saturday with blood in their eyes. * * * Big hockey mews this morning comes out of Toronto where the Leafs announced that they have dealt Fleming Mackell to the Bos- fon Bruins and that an unnamed Hershey player will join the Mapleos tomorrow. This means that Mackell, the little speed-ball right winger, who made his best rushes down the left side, may be teamed up as a line-mate again with Eddie Sandford. This pair along with Les Costello, who has since gone into priesthood, formed the top line for St. Mike's in their Memorial Cup hey-day of the middle 40's and were as a unit one of the greatest Junior hockey lines of all time, in the opinion of many. Toronto's Jim Vipond guesses that the forward coming to the Leaf organization will be either Leo Labine or Real Chevrefils, both with Barrie Flyers' Memorial Cup champions last year. Of the two--Chevrefils would be our choice, * * + "Woody" Dumart one of the two remaining members of the famous Boston Bruins' "Kraut Line"--who played against Oshawa Majors in the OHA Junior "A" finals in 1935 (and were defeated by Oshawa), scored two goals for the Boston Bruins last night in their 7-2 victory at Chicago and that puts the veteran winger, who also served on defense for a while, at the 199 mark. One more goal and he'll become a member of the famous "200 Club" and considering that he spent some of his best years as a hockey player away from NHL action while wearing the RCAF uniform, Dumart can be rated with any of the all-time stars of hockey. - * * Jeff and Bob Quintrell, a couple of cousins, have travelled all the way from Australia, to make a bid in professional baseball ranks. Jeff is a pitcher and is a power-hitter while Bob is a second baseman and won All-Australia nomination honors last season, * +* SPORTS STEW -- WHITBY ANDERSON BOX team opens their OHA Junior "C" schedule tonight over at the Kinsmen Arena in Whitby, when the Millbrook Juniors will be the visiting opposition , . .

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Before the National Hockey Lea- gue season started, coach Ebbie Goodfellow said that his Chicago Black Hawks were a 25 per cent better club than last year. Ebbie must have been speaking with tongue in cheek. Here it is"past, the half-way mark of the 70-game schedule and Hawks are in that old familiar position-- last, They should have stayed in bed last night instead of going to the Chicago Stadium because they lost another, 7-2, to the surging Boston Bruins. It was the 23rd loss in 37 games and left the inept Hawks with only 25 points and last place, six behind the Bruins who appear to have found the range after a lapse of KITCHENER JRS. UPSET HATTERS Kitchener -- Kitchener Green- shirts outscored Guelph Biltmores, 2-1, in overtime last night to take a 65 victory over the second- place Bilts in the Ontario Hockey Association Junior '""A' series. Orv Tessier, who fired three Kitchener goals and set up a forth, was the scoring standout for the 3,424 fans. Goalie Bill Harrington, with a stellar game between the pipes, also shone for the Shirts. Other Kitchener goals fell to Duke Edmondson, Frank Toyota and Jack Higgins, Dean Prentice was a hat-trick man for the Bilts, with single goals for Chuck Hen- derson and Harry Howell. Tessier fired a penalty-shot goal in the last minute of -the first pe- riod. Prentice was penalized for tripping Novak from behind as he raced in on a breakaway, and Tessier took the penalty shot?

Hawks probably will reach the 36 - point total they amassed in the 1950 - 52 season. And, for this date, the only thing certain in the league appears to be that the Hawks will watch the Stanley Cup proceedings from the sidelines, Last night's game was a walk- over for the Bruins. The Hawks tried desperately and went into the second period in a 1-1 tie but Boston added three each in the second ard third stanzas to make it a runaway. 'fhe veteran Woocy Dumart, who hasn't sean much action this year, scored twice for the Bruins to bring his lifetime major league total to 199 goals. Other Bruin goals were scored by Milt Schmidt, Ed Sandford, Jack McIntyre, Bill Quackenbush and Dave Creighton. Bep Guidolin and Gus Bodnar were Chicago's marksmen. Only one game is on tap for tonight with Toronto Maple Leafs Owen Sounders Trim Dutchies In Senior Tilt BY THE CANADIAN PRESS The hottest team in the Ontario Hockey Association Senior A cir- cuit, Owen Sound Mercurys racked up their sixth straight victory last night when they trimmed Kitch- ener - Waterloo Dutchmen 6-1. In last place less than a month ago, the high - flying Mercs now have a firm grip on fourth place in the six - team group. They are five points back of the third - place Hamilton Tigers and only seven behind the second-place Kitchener- Waterloo club. Hamilton Tigers and Sarnia Sail- ors played to a 2-2 overtime tie in the only other Senior A tussle. At Owen Sound, defenceman Bill Allum led the Mercurys to their 6-1 win with two important goals while Ray McCallum, Roy Leckie, Buck Forslund and Andy Grant added the others. Jim Pernfuss scored the lone Kitchener-Waterloo tally. At Hamilton, it was Murray Durnnette and Murray Comfort who came through for Hamilton in the first period while Gus Gosselin and Don Emms scored in the second and third stanzas to give Sarnia their 2-2 deadlock. An overtime 03 | session failed to break the tie. In senior play tonight Brantford will move into Sarnia against the tail - end Sailors.

HOCKEY'S BIG SEVEN BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Boston Bruins' 7-2 victory over the hapless Chicago Black Hawks Tuesday night didn't change the standings of the seven top scorers in the National Hockey League significantly. But, two assists gar- nered by the Bruins' Johnny Peir- son did put him into a three-way | tie with Sid Smith and Ted Kennedy | of Toronto for fifth place. | Elmer Lach of Montreal Canad- | iens continues to lead in points | scored, with nine goals and 28 | assists for 37 points, closely fol- | lowed by teammate Maurice (The | Rocket) Richard with 21 goals and | 15 assists for 36 points.
