10 THE DAILY TIMES.GAZETTE, Friday, Jsnvary 16, 1958 ~ 7 LY BOB HOLDEN'S FIRST GOAL WAS A "SMASHING" EFFORT Everyone in this shot of the Smith Truckmen - Kingston game looks to be celebrating Bob Hol- den's (far right) goal. Ron Nel- son (far left) who drew an as- sist on the play, yelps his de- light, while Goaler Ken Johnson and a Kingston defenceman seem k clasping each other in un- con enthusiasm. Actually the defenceman tried to halt Hol- | den's play and zigged when Hol- den zagged. The zag led him in- to direct collision with Johnson. | Both flopped to the ice like rag dolls, the former taking more than a few seconds to gather his | wits. The Truckmen eventually won the game, 10-5. Their next home game will be Thursday against the second - place Stouff- ville Clippers. --Photo by Dutton-Times Studio. 128 points, seven better than the TRUCKMEN STILL ROLLING Oshawa's Smith Truckmen gal- loped into a seven-point lead in their OHA Senior "B'" group last night at the Arena with a thump- ing 10-5 win over the fourth-place Kingston Goodyears. Arriving on the ice some 30 minutes late due to.a breakdown in the bus' carburetor, the Kings- ton club immediately scored a single goal to put them into the only lead they held during the night 's festivities. Oshawa tied the count 1-1 at the end of the first period, made it 52 by the end of the second and wound-up the wild third frame with the 10-5 final score. The victory gives the Truckers second-place Stouffville Cliopers. Kingstor remains in fourth place with 16 points. When it was learned by the Truckmen management that regu- lar goaler Jack Naylor had left the team, it was decided to bring up Mike Cirka, star net-minder with the Oshawa Junior '"'B'" Buz- Zers. FINE STYLE 5 He handled the chore in fine style and although he had fewer shots to handle than Ken Jonson in the enemy net, this was due to the fine Oshawa defence. That defence also guaranteed that the odd rushes that did get through to Cirka would be tough to stop . . . but he was equal to almost all of them. Oshawa's big front line of Gerry Scott, George Samolenko and Jed Wilson were in on five of the local goals and picked up 13 points a- mong them. Scott now has a total of 42) points for top spot in the league | and Samolenko is second with 39. | Teakess scored the first of his two goals for Kingston to open the | {scoring in the game at the 8.22 * {son scored a couple in quick suc- mark of first period. He actually checked the puck into the net off the stick of defenceman McBeth who was frying for a clearing move. Ernie Dickens let go a long shot from the blue line late in the per- iod on a pass from Hooper. Gerry Scott changed it's course slightly and turned it into the net behind Johnson to knot the count 1-1. OPENS EARLY Bob Holden scored the first of two from Ron Nelson at the 33 second mark of the middle stanza. Dickens fired from the blue line on another power attack a few minutes later and this time he clicked all the way himself to make the score 3-1. George Samolenko and Jed Wil- cession and the Truckers led 5-1. The team relaxed for a moment and just seven seconds after Wil- son's tally, Gerow skated in on Cirka and drifted a slow drag shot into the net. MacGregor and Teakess for the first two goals of the wide-open third period, as the Goodyears started to fly. They almost caught the Smitties, but rallying around Jack Thaler who scored two in-a- row for the locals, the Truckmen pulled out of the mire at 8-4. Scott tallied his second goal at the 18.40 mark for a score of 9-4. That looked like the final, but the teams were still going at break- neck speed. With under 40 seconds remain- ing in the game Jack McKeown plunged the rubber behind Cirka to make it 9-5. The clock had just about ticked off the final second when Bob Holden turned on the red light frem Thaler and Nelson . . . 19.58 the thing registered . . . it also said 10-5 for Oshawa. This time the face-off was a mere formality. 7 VY ~ =i p= EVERYTHING FROM SOUP TO NUTS" Oshawa Generals travel to Kitchener tonight to tangle with the [three games here yesterday in the K-W Greenshirts and the way things are going right now, the Generals [9th annual repetition of the event, can expect a mighty tough tussle.

R. S. McLaughlin Trophy playoffs today at the Oshawa Curling Club, when the 9th annual 5-day bonspiel will come to a close. Asmussen's men were a little fortunate in the second game, being three down going to the 11th end of the afternoon session against Oshawa's Al Parkhill, Parky Just barely failed to negotiate a narrow port with his last stone, that would have killed the lane Kitchener counter on the 11th end and given the Oshawans a 6-shot lead. As it was, they came to the 12th with a two-shot margin and looked to have things under con- trol but Asmussen himself played two perfect stones to set up his 2nd and then 3rd counters and Parkhill was an inch wide with his first push-out bid and then, faced with the necessity of a cold draw to the six-foot ring, the Oshawa skip was a mite heavy and the stone was swept through the house. At night, Asmussen whipped Bill Minett's rink, the Kitchener four curling almost to perfection. A. McFie's Kingston rink was the other rink to win three games yesterday. This rink has a couple of old COBL stars on it--faces well-k to Osh b ball fans, in the persons of big "Bob" Elliott and Harold Buck, the temperamental southpaw. These two rinks are competing again this morning, The full story of yester- day's action and the survivors who compete in the main competitions ' today, appears in other columns, on this page. Oshawa has one rink, Bill Brownlee's four, in the primary event and three Oshawa rinks are in the running for the Fittings Ltd. Trophy. Tomorrow, there's a one-day bonspiel at the Oshawa Curling Club, embracing several out-of-town entries but comprised chiefly of local curlers.
