98 THE DALY TIMES-GAZETTE, Monday, November 9, 1953 R BUSY FOOTBALL WEEK-END Toronto Argos Will Not Be Around When Grey Cup Day Comes This Year By JACK SUTIN. Press Staff Weiter Western Interprovincial Football Union club, whose sad experiences against Toronto Argonauts in the Grey Cup final are legend, can re- lax. The defending champions are out of the picture this year. The curtain to an in-and-out Tor- onto season was lowered Saturday at Ottawa when the Rough Riders, switching from the straight-T to split-T formations, swept Argo- nauts out of the Big Four playoff scene with a 13-4 triumph. The Ottawa victory, coupled with Montreal Alouettes' 31-18 triumph over Hamilton Tiger-Cats, left Ar- gonauts out of reach of a playoff spot with only one game remain- ing in the 14-game schedule. A few hours after the Toronto loss, the original split-T kids of Canadian football, Edmonton Eski- mos, smacked Winnipeg Blue Bom- bers 25-7 in the first game of their best-of-three WIFU final at Edmon- ton. They did it with the same finesse that sent them to a runaway first Joes finish in the regular schedul WRETCHED WEATHER It was a wretched week-end for football from a weather and at- tendance standpoint. Field condi- tions for all seven scheduled senior games ranged from a snow-hard- ened surface at the Alberta city to snow-and-rain-sodden fields in the east. Attendance hit a week-end low for the season--less than 60,000. The largest crowd, 15,500, sat through 23-degree weather in Ed- monton. The Als took an early 12-0 lead and went into the last 15 minutes with only a 19-18 margin. They drove for two converted fourth- quarter touchdowns to salvage the triumph and draw into the first- place tie with Riders and Tiger- Cats with 14 points each. In other week-end activity, Tor- onto Balmy Beach defeated Sarnia Imperials 18-12 in their. home-and- home total-point Ontario Rugby Football Union semi-final series played in rain and snow. Beaches lost 2-0 at Sarnia Saturday before a 900 crowd and defeated the de- fending champions 18-10 at Toronto Sunday with 700 fans in attendance. ARGOS DIDN'T HAVE IT It was a win-or-else game at Ot- tawa and Argonauts just didn't have it. Their points came on two safety touches--one conceded by Ottawa as a defensive manoeuvre. Now the club that polished off Edmonton Eskimos 21-11 in the Grey Cup last season, can act only as a spoiler in the Big Four schedule windup Saturday. Alouettes, who defeated Toronto 39-11 in their last outing, will 'be out of the playoffs if they lose to Argonauts and Hamilton and Ot- tawa play to a tie at Hamilton. That is the only possible way the Als, last-place club the previous three years, could miss out on the post-schedule series. The winner of the Edmonton-Win- nipeg series will meet the winner of the Balmy Beach - Kitchener- Waterloo Dut ¢ h me n home-and- home total-point final opening at Kitchener Wednesday. But the west hasn't much worry of missing the Nov. 28 cup final--the ORFU, with the exception of Sarnia, is made up of farm clubs of Big Four teams and it is expected the west winner will take it easily. Riders fashioned their win over Argonauts on touchdowns by Gene (Choo Choo) Roberts and Bernie Flowers, converts by Roberts and a single by Avatus Stone. Stone|, was smeared for the first safety touch late in the game and then conceded the other. HUNSINGER STARS The scoring standout at Mont- real was Chuck Hunsinger who went over for three touchdowns, one set up by a sensational 90- yard runback of a kick by Alex Webster. Joey Pal and Webster accounted for the other Montreal majors, Ray Poole kicked five con- verts and quarter Sam Etcheverry a single. Ralph Toohy, Tip Logan and Lou Kusserow scored the Tiger-Cat majors and Logan kicked three converts to extend his string to 70 without a miss. The Imperials, the last senior club, apart from the colleges, to remain almost strictly Canadian, went down fighting. They spotted the Argonaut farm club two first- half converted touchdowns, carried over for two unconverted majors in the third quarter and lost the game in the fourth when Toronto inter- cepted a forward with the Im- perials on the Beach six-yard line. Nayland Moll, Toronto high school product, scored two Beach majors and import Dick Gregory went over for the other. Gregory made the converts. Eric McKeever and Corky Du- chene scored Sarnia's touchdowns.

They are tied at the top of the standings with eight points each, two up on Queen's Golden Gaels. The Blues rubhed it in on the defending champion Mustangs at Toronto Saturday with a 12-0 de- cision on a snowcovered Varsity Stadium field before 10,000 fans. At Hamilton, the Gaels kept their playoff chances alive with a 280 victory over McMaster Marauders, . [also on a greasy, snow-sprinkled field and before 1,000 fans. The week-end activity set the stage for the final scheduled games next Saturday whn the Blues and Gaels meet at Kingston and Mus tangs have a home date against the fourth-place McGill Redmen. The Blues converted Mustang miscues into touchdowns. After a scoreless first half, Var- sity went ahead when a bad West- ern snap sailed 35 yards over the head of Flying Wing Jocko Thomp- son and the ball was gathered up by Toronto on the Western 20. Steve Mandryk hit half Bob Pink- ney with a short pass and Steve Oneschuk pitched to end Ted Ken- nedy on the five and the end ambled over. Those were the only two Varsity pass completions in four tries. In the fourth quarter, the Blues picked up a Jacques Belec fum- ble on the Western 20 and half Phil Mantz crashed over on sec- ond down from the 11. Steve One- |schuk convérted both majors. | Ron Stewart, 162-pound halfback | from Toxonto, scored three touch- downs for the second straight week in the Gaels' triumph. Pete Zarry scored the other while Frank Geard kicked three singles, Pete Cran- ston two converts and Wally Mel- lor one and Lorne Wrigglesworth conceded a safety touch for the other two points. Marauders, who completed the season with six straight losses, penetrated into Queen's territory only once--on a 36yard passing play from Joe Kosakowski to Burt Kellock. They fumbled on the next 3 play. SPAIN-SWEDEN DRAW BILBAO, Spain (Reuters)--Spain and Sweden played a 2-2 tie in an international soccer match here Sunday. Manitoba Junior Wpg.

A bitter 15-mile-an-hour wind in a 23-degree temperature sent icy blasts across the snow-hardened field but on the Edmonton bench two big heaters, of the type used by the air force to heat aircraft engines in cold weather, threw waves of warm air over the Eski- mos and two huge ducts carried the heat along the gravel-bottomed pen. Meanwhile, Bombers were taking their breathers huddled - under parkas and blankets on a similar uncovered dugout bench. Edmonton football fans are won- dering if it was this new heating system that got quarterback Claude Arnold and reserve quarter Ray Willsey so warmed up that their combined efforts on polished signal calling stopped Bombers cold. MILES, PANTAGES STAR Negro scatback Rollie Miles, in for injured halfback Billy Vessels, plunged over for two easy majors to spur an almost invincible Es- kimo ground attack. Rod Pantages subbed brilliantly for Eskimos' other all-star cas- ualty, backfielder Normie Kwong. Pantages went over for the third Edmonton touchdown, and' his ac- curate toe lifted seven punts an average 53 yards, and two of them resulted in singles. End Neill Armstrong, former Philadelphia Eagle, caught a five- yard toss across the line for the Winnipeg major with only a min- ute remaining, and Bud Korchak converted. The other Bomber point came in the first quarter when Miles bullied back over the line after taking Jack Jacobs' long punt. Bombers had only 11 plays in Eskimo territory and came within scoring range only five short-lived times. Eskimos outran Bombers 204 yards to 43. Whenever Eskimos have used their split-T ground of- fensive to that advantage this sea- son, opposition passing plays haven't made much difference. Bombers beat the Esks twice in five meetings during the season's regular schedule, and both times with a stronger ground 'attack. UNIQUE PROBLEM NORTHWICH, England (AP)--A disputed goal in a soccer match Saturday gave - British football officialdom a problem unique in its history. The Runcorn team vale? the field after insisting a Witton Albion shot had entered the goai through the net and not fairly. The referee had given them five nee minutes to accept his ruling that! the goal was good. Rules make no provision for for- feits when a team refuses to fin- |ish a game--nothing like that ever happened before. The only regula- tion that could possibly apply calls for a replay if a game is not com- pleted. Witton Albion, which felt it was leading 3-1 at the time, might not like the idea of starting all over again. RUSSIANS TOP POLES = WARSAW (AP)--Moscow's Spar tak soccer team, Russian League champions, defeated the Polish | champions, Unia, 4-2 Sunday. BRUINS AND HABS SPLIT Detroit Red Wings Only Get Two Ties, NHL Race Has Top Pour Teams Bunched conti = Starr Writer There is a natural temptation to- day to write down Detroit Red Wings, the National Hockey League's perennial champions. Twice this week-end the Wings had to scramble for a tie against clubs that not even their best friends would rate on a par with the mighty Detroiters. Instead of gaining on league- leading Montreal Canadiens, held to an even break by Boston Bruins Detroit dropped into a second-place tie with Toronto Maple Leafs and have the Bruins breathing down their necks a single point back. All this resulted from 2-2 ties against the Leafs and New York Rangers in which the five-time league title-holders never held the lead at any stage. Alex Delvecchio saved them in Toronto Saturday night with some six minutes' play- ing time left. Ted Lindsay cut it finer Sunday, tying it up with less than three minutes to go. But there are signs that the De- troit situation isn't as unhealthy as it appears at first glance. TWO MORE GAMES In their 13 starts this season, the Wings have won six, lost three and tied four. That leaves them four points behind the Canadiens, who have an identical 2-1 ratio of wins over losses and have played two more games. The Detroit defensive average of 1.38 goals a game scored against them is easily the best in the NHL. Rookie centre Earl Reibel and his famed line-mates, Lindsay and Gordie Howe, top the league scor- ing race, with defenceman Red Kelly close behind. Tod Sloan and George Armstrong were the Leaf marksmen Saturday night. Lindsay fired the first De- troit goal. In other' action Saturday, the Canadiens beat Boston for the first time this season, 5-2, and New York edged last-place Chicago Black Hawks 3-1. The Hawks suf- fered their second home loss Sun- day as the Leafs edged them 2-1. The Bruins blanked Montreal 2-0 at Boston. SECOND SHUTOUT Defenceman Tom Johnson, fill- ing in at centre for the short-han- ded Habitants, scored the winning gal and set up another by Bernie eoffrion in the Canadiens' home victory. Ken Mosdell, Lorne Davis and Paul Meger were the other Montreal marksmen. Leo Labine and Johnny Peirson scored for the Bruins. Peirson and Labine again did the scoring Sunday, firing their goals less than three minutes apart early in the third period to give the Bruins their second shutout of the year. A penalty to Reibel indirectly paved the way for Detroit's tying goal against the Rangers. Emerg- ing from the box after serving his sentence, the uncovered rookie raced in to blast a shot at New York goalie Johnny Bower. Johnny Wilson scored earlier for Detroit and Ike Hildebrand and Don Raleigh counted for the visit. ing New Yorkers. At Chicago Saturday, veteran centre Max Bentley salted the game away for the Rangers in the first period, setting up Billy (Hard Rock) Dea for one tally and scoring a second unassisted within 12 seconds of first-period play. Camile Henry widened the mar- gin late in the second period and defenceman Bill Gadsby got the lone Chicago counter early in the third. The Hawks' Sunday night loss to Toronto followed a similar pat- tern. Bobby Hassard gave Toronto the lead in the first period and defenceman Tim Horton made it 2-0 early in the third before George Gee put the losers on the score- sheet. It was the Hawks' fourth straight defeat. Fort William Ousts St. Boniface Legion, '52 Inter. Champs. By THE CANADIAN PRESS It's Fort William against either Peterborough or Montreal in the Canadian intermediate football fi- nal.
