40 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, April 16, 1088 7 EVERYTHING FROM SOUP TO NUTS Took in the informal meeting and social conflab held last night ip the Piccadilly Room of the Hotel Genosha, when Dave Goldberg and Harley Schipper, the two young promoters who along with "Bill" Sharp are going to put over stock car racing at "Oshawa Autoways", presented their case to a flock of young Oshawa drivers. Some of the top drivers in the country, from Toronto, were on hand, including Ted Hogan, Ted Race, Ted Gilbert, Phil Major, Bob Brown, Chuck Santagatto with Jack Higgins, president of the Canadian Stockar Racing Club also on hand, as was Ross Kennedy, official starter at the CNE. From the open forum discussion held last night, we gathered that the local drivers have been performing for "peanuts" in the past two years and they were greatly concerned over the plans presented by the new promoters. The guar- antee (with a written contract available) that $500.00 in prize monty would be given each night, spread over the winners of six different races, didn't even convince the locals, We could appreciate the concern expressed by some of the local drivers but their doubts got to the ridiculous point at times. They were admitting that they are not yet capable of open competition against the crack drivers from Toronto and also admitted that they received very little even when they won, | in past years, yet they were insisting what the policy should be. It got to the point at one stage where it looked like a bunch of beginners trying out for a team which they mightn't make but insisting they receive a certain amount for their efforts. Somebody should acquaint the local drivers, with all respect to their obvious interest and enthusiasm, that the two energetic promoters who put on such a fine do last night, are determined to go ahead and make a of this "st » pacing in Oshawa and after all, if the local drivers do mot wish to compete, it's certainly mot compulsory. There'll be five hundred green backs to be won and it 'adds up just as simple as this--if they don't drive apd compete for the prize money, somebody else will. That's for sure! The pictures displayed by "Bob" Sall of the well-known "Nascar" organization, were the finest action pictures of any kind we've ever seen and the 10-car erack-up in the middle of the race with cars going 80-miles per hour, and only one broken leg as the most serious injury, was almost unbelievable. Stock car racing is going to boom at the "Oshawa Autoways" this year, with a paved track and excellent facilities for both spectators and drivers, Kitchener-Waterloo Flying Dutchmen climbed back into contention fn the Allan Cup playdowns, when they defeated Smiths Falls Rideaus 6-4 last night in Kitchener, in the third game of their series. The Rideaus have found that the Dutchmen are much tougher on their home ice and the balance of the series should be a hectic affair. Meanwhile, local puck fans were a bit stunned to learn that Woodstock whipped Kingston Goodyears 8-2 in the first game of the OHA Senior "B" finals. It was felt that the winner from this district would take the title with- out too much trouble but it seems as if the Woodstock A's have other ideas about that. In the hockey action carded for tonight, two games loom as "big", with Boston Bruins facing elimination in the 5th game of the Stanley Cup finals, on Montreal ice and Quebec Citadels invad- ing Barrie for the second game of their Eastern Canada Junior "A" series. Coach Phil Watson must be resorting entirely to ballyhoo to fill the Quebec rink when the teams go back there, He calls the Barrie Arena a "pig-sty" and further reverses his field by saying he's sick-to-death of hearing "Hap" Emms called the greatest coach in the world and that this fact will be clearly refuted back in Quebec. Oh Hum! That's quite an idea they've got for the Inter-County League um- pires for this season. Marshall Ariss, president of the I-O Umpires' Association, has ennounced that all applicants for a job on the staff will undergo an eye test by a qualified optometrist. When the oculist gives the "umps" his okay, then the fans are going to be forced to change their "wise-cracks". After all, if an umpire gets the okay from an optometrist, the fan shouldn't call the umps "a blind man", should he? Come to think of it--they'd better share the responsibility by having severa] oculists check the umpiring applicants--otherwise it will be the "eye man" that gets the criticism. More news from the Inter-County includes word that Waterloo Tigers have signed Ed Sokol, 28, of Westfield, Mass, to do some catching for their team. He was with Jersey City Giants in 1950, with Minneapolis Millers of Triple "A" ball in 1951. Playing- Manager Hank Biasetti has a powerful righthander, heavy batter and an extra-base clubber of RBI prominence, in Sokol. Galt has signed a pair of Negro hurlers, Othello Strong of Chicago and Elvin Spearman of Atlanta, G. Strong, 26 and well over six feet, had a 14-4 record with Winnipeg last year in the Mandak League and he pitched for Chicago Giants in the Negro American League in 1951. Spearman, 24, won 17 and lost only 5 with Caracas of the South American League, last year and he was formerly in the Negro American league, with Chicago Giants, Kansas City Monarchs, BRIGHT BITS: --Sugar Jim Henry insists he'll be back in the nets for Boston tonight, in Montreal . . .

Canadiens only need to win to- night's game to take the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1946. They lead the best-of-seven final series 3-1. Even Patrick admits his team Is in a serious slump. Sugar Jim Henry says he will be back in the Boston nets and 'I hope it will give the team a lift." Patrick isn't so sure Sugar Jim will be in condition. The Bruins coach thinks he might have to go along with Gordon (Red) Henry, who replaced his namesake when Sugar Jim twisted his ankle in a game in Montreal last week. Dick Irvin, veteran coach of Montreal, said: "I feel sorry for Lynn, The same thing happened to us a couple of years ago. We elim- inated Detroit in six games and then lost in five to Toronto. I just couldn't get the team 'up' for the Toronto series." : If the Bruins win tonight the next game of the series will be played in Boston Saturday after- noon. Boston Garden has been booked for a religious convention Saturday night and Sunday. A Sats urday afternoon game will be something new for Stanley Cup play. ; Injuries to goalkeepers have played a major role in the series. Both teams -have been affected. Gerry McNeil of Montreal re- turned after voluntarily leaving the Canadiens goal early in the series. He came back with a bad ankle which has to be frozen be- fore he gets on the ice. K-W Dutchmen Best Smiths Falls 6-4 ITTCHENER (CP)--Home ice could be the deciding factor in the Eastern Canada senior hockey fi- nals. Kitchener - Waterloo Dutchmeh played the first two games of their best-of-seven series with Smiths Falls Rideaus at Smiths Falls and lost both to the Ottawa valley champs 6-2 and 3.0. Wednesday night the Ontario Hockey Association Senior A title- holders came home and won their first game of the Allan Cup semi- final 6-4. Fourth game is sched- uled here Friday night. The Dutchies were allowed two first-period goals by the visitors and for the rest of the game were matched goal for goal. At the end of the second it was 3-2 for the home side and for a short time in the third Smiths Falls tied the score, In the first period Art Hurst and Don Rope sent the Dutchmen into their lead. Art Webster broke into he scoring column for Smiths Falls after eight minutes of play in the second, but Kitchener's Jack McKenzie scored a goal that was protested by the Rideaus to make it 3-1. Smiths Falls argued that referee Andy Bellemer had blown the whistle before the goal was scored. The goal stood. Stu Smith notched another for the visitors be- fore the end of the period to make it 3-2. BARRIE (CP)--"A pig sty," sneered Phil Watson, outspoken coach of Quebec Citadelles. He was referring to the Barrie Arena, site of tonight's' second game of the Eastern Canada Memorial Cup series. The home of Barrie Flyers, Cita- delles rival for the eastern junior hockey - title, has been a frequent target for the Citadelle manage- ment ever since owner Frank Bymnet agged it a chicken coop a couple of seasons ago. " , . One game is too much in that pig sty," said Watson, The game is the only one of the best- of-seven series to be played here. The series moves to Quebec for games Saturday and Monday.

Watson, who praised Barrie's Hap Emms as a great coach prior to Quebec's 9-2 drubbing by Barrie Tuesday night in Toronto, changed his tune. Today, he said he was "sick and tired" of hearing Emms referred to constantly as the greatest coach in the world. "Just wait till we get them in Quebec. We're going o win this series yet and Emms is going to be the laughing stock of the country." No Ontario team has ever beaten the Citadelles in Quebec. himself. The Barrie coach said the Citadelles are considered so poorly in Barrie that the fans aren't even interested in seeing them play. Early sale for tonight's game has been slow after the fans learned the outcome of the first game. "The Cits just aren't a good drawing card any more," said Emms. "Except for Watson, who |can's ay anything intelligent any- way, there isn't any color on the team at all." Emms had a few barbs to toss |} John Muretich knotted the count early in 'he third before Howie Lee again sent Kitchener ahead. Mure- tich fired his second of the night at the eight-minute mark to dead- lock the score again. Maurice Leveque slammed home the winner eight minutes before the end of the game and bby Schnurr notched the clincher at the final whistle. Schnurr's goal was scored into an empty net after coach Hal Dewey lifted goaltender Johnny Craig in the last 35 sec- onds in an attempt to tie the score, The game, attended by 6,597 fans was delayed 15 minutes when bulbs from an auxiliary lighting ramp exploded over the ice when the ramp broke from its moorings.

Cincinnati Defeats Johnston Jets 4-1 JOHNSTOWN, Pa. (AP)--Cin- cinnati scored two goals in the first period, then went on to de- feat Johnstown : 4-1 Wednesday night to take a 2-0 lead in she best- of-five series for the U.S. Amateur Hockey Association's senior open championship. The score was the same as in Tuesday night's opening contest. Goals by Russ Kowalchuk and Art Rose sent the winners of the International Hockey League play- off into the lead.
