Barrie Thumps Cits In One-Sided Tilt BARRIE (CP)--All through the hockey season Barrie Flyers have been rough customers in their own backyard, The Ontar standard-be: Rockey Association 'ers were at their un- merciful best Thursday night as they thumped Quebec Citadelles 8-3 to take a 2-0 lead in their best-of- seven series for the Eastern Can- in ada junior title. A small crowd of 3,500 watched the Flyers romp to their second one-sided victory, a follow-up of Tuesday night's 9-2 count on Tor- onto ice, in a game that lost its one-sided nature only in the last riod, when the losers were able take advantage of a manpower edge to fire two late goals. Jim Robertson fired two goals for the winners, with Doug Mohns, Skip Teal, Orv Tessier, Larry Thi- beault, Don McKenney and Fred Pletsch getting the others. Ray Cyr, Rollie Leclerc and Bert Le- page were the Quebec snipers. It may be a different story when the teams meet again at Quebec Saturday night. Like the Flyers, Phil Watson's charges react fav- drably to friendly surroundings. In the interlocking Quebec - Ontario schedule this season, the Cits were undefeated against visitors from Ontario. Possibly the most grateful for a turn in the Citadelles' fortunes would be little Marcel Paille, their goaltender. With Flyers camped on his doorstep most of the evening, he kicked out 43 shots Thursday - night while Marv Edwards was handling only 13 at the other end. The Flyers were in command al- most from the opening whistle, as Mohns and Teal ran in two goals in the first five minutes before Cyr counted for the losers. Tessier and Robertson made it 4-1 before the period ended. The second frame was even more one-sided as Barrie ran off three goals without a reply, outshooting the bewildered Citadelles 21-3 in the process. While Barrie coach Hap Emms appeared willing to coast in the final period, the Flyers still main- tained an 11-8 edge in the shoot- g. The Flyers earned nine of the game's 16 penalties, with Robert- son and Gilles Thibeault of Quebec getting majors for a brief scuffle in the final frame. Kingston Bests Woodstock 8-5 KINGSTON (CP -- Kingston Goodyears Thursday night de- feated Woodstock Athletics 8-5 to even their best-of-seven Ontario Hockey Association junior B final series at one game each. Third ame will be played here Satur- ay night. Don Murray sparked Kingston with three goals. Al DeLuca, John Myke, Ted Nicholson, Jack White and Ken Partis each notched one. Larry Leminchick fired two for the Athletics, Don Thrower, Bud Evans and Jack Luckman added the others. HORSE DISQUALIFIED RK (AP)--Alfred G. NEW YO! Vanderbilt's Kitchen Maid, which 8 finished second in the seventh race at Jamaica April 10, was dis- qualified Thursday by the New York state racing commission. Laboratory tests showed the filly had been given medicine containing caffeine. Smiths Falls Want Another Home Game (CP)--Smiths Falls Rideaus want to have at least one more of their best-of-8even final games for the Eastern Canada sen- ior hockey championship in East- ern Ontario. That would require a switch in playoff arrangements. The Rideaus won the first two of their games with Kitchener- Waterloo Dutchmen on Smiths Falls ice, then dropped a 6-4 de- cision here Wednesday night, The fourth game will be played here tonight and the fifth in Guelph Saturday. : The sixth is scheduled for Kitch- ener next Tuesday but coach Hal Dewey of the Rideaus said Thurs- y: "As far as I'm concerned, our club will be going home Saturday night, win or lose." He said he has no objection to bringing the team back for a sev- enth game here if necessary. Officials of the Canadian Ama- teur Hockey Association are repor- ted considering the proposed change. ; Defenceman Clare Martin of the Dutchmen, who pulled a back muscle in Wednesday night's game may not play tonight. If he does not start, the Dutchmen will shift Howie Lee to right defence and put Harvey Jacklin on defence, while Grieg Hicks moves into centre.

Some of these are fellows who've been out of the game for a couple of years and would like another crack at the pill. They are talking turning out with the club on Saturday af- ternoon at Alexandra Park . .. on a looksee basis. The interest is there . . . now all the Transporter brass must do is fan it to flame in that workout, The fact that the club has moved up to Senior ranks makes it a necessity to throw open all the positions on the team. The calibre of players must be the best possible. As the man said, there are some big holes to fill . . . there are men around town who can fill "em . . . will they? Hear that Blanche Norton has been getting anonymous phone calls from "admirers' who call her a sucker for donating a trophy at the Transporters' re- quest, and then see it become a nothing when the team moved up to senior ball. In the first place, as Blanche put it, "I donated the trophy after consulting with my hus- band . . . there was no hint of suggestion from the Transport- ers." Secondly the blame for the cessation of junior ball doesn't lie with the Transporters. They wanted to carry it on . . . but with no league around Oshawa to compete in, they decided to move up a notch or so. And lastly Mrs. Norton says, "If there is no junior team and therefore no batter of that cali- bre around next fall to present the trophy to . . . I'll more than likely present it to the top batter on the Transporter sen- jor eam, It won't become a nothing." Cheers Mrs. N., keep up the good work! CHECKLETS: Did you know that the last time Milwau- kee was in the major leagues was back in 1901. They were a member of the American League at that time, Before that, in 1891 they were in the American Association, and be- fore that in 1884 they were in the Union Association. The team is now a National League member, and it was as a member of that loop that Mil- waukee first broke into the majors way back in 1878. We notice where the Central Ontario Baseball League . , . the grand old COBL is suspend- ing operations after moving along with but three teams last year, Peterboro seniors are seek- ing entry into the Lakeshore Intermediate League, while Kingston and Belleville are moving into a border league. This corner has stayed strict- ly away from predicting any- thing about Senior hockey since the demise of the Smith Truck- men. We've seen the Kingston Goodyears lose by whopping scores in the first couple of games, of semi-final and final league championship series and in semi-final OHA series, only to come back and take the round. They lost the first game of their set for the OHA Senior B crown the other day to the fam- ed Woodstock crew whom we predicted earlier in the season as the opposition for the Truck- men in the senior final. That loss by Kingston means nothing, Johnny Carr-Harris is one of those coaches who uses the first game or two to feel out his opponents' weak points + . . and then look out. We won't say the Goodies will . sweep the set, but we will say it will go the limit . . , and then Kingston will edge 'em out, « + « by Bob Rife. Remember When. . .

The teams were evenly matched --technique, speed and scoring ability. The Hus pgan of victory was a six-point lead built up early by Toronto.
