90 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Priday, June 3, 1955 Oshawa McCallum Transporters absorbed a 7-2 licking last night at Talbot Park in a Leaside Jun- jor League fixture at the hands of Metropolitan Motors. It just wasn't their night and the Motor City team were well beaten with Bourke the classy youn hurler for Metro Motors, chalkin up an impressive total of 1 strikeouts over the Jistance, by Geo. H.

Umpires: Easton and Cockell. REMEMBER Orville Smith? The lean and lanky "pepper pot" who could come up with the puck in nine-out-of-ten scrambles in the cor- ners, in the days when Oshawa Generals were winning the Memorial | Cup in 1939 and '40, arrived in Oshawa yesterday afternoon, for a visit and we enjoyed a lengthy chat, Like a lot more of us, he weighs # lot more now than he did in 1940 but other than than, hasn't chang- ed a bit. Orville says he's still "stick handling." He is "a stick man" at one of the gaming tables in the fabulous "Desert Inn," next door to Las Vegas They could have quite a re-union of former Oshawa Generals, and other local hockey players, down that way. "Nakina" (he still hates to be called Dalton) oldest of the Smith brothers to wear Oshawa livery. resides in Los Angeles. He is ¢ "mutuels" clerk, working at Santa Anita, Hollywood and other west coast race tracks. "Winkie" Smith resides in Omaha, where he is traffic manager for the Prucka transportation company, Roy Covert is a "stick man" too, at the Golden Nugget, in Las Vegas, "Judd" McAtee and his goaltending brother "Red," own a cocktail lounge in Tulsa, Oklahoma and Nick Knoit is a salesman in the same city. Normie McAtee resides in Troy, Ohio. "ORV" SMITH was pleased to get "back home." says he always considers Oshawa as "home." He was utterly amazed that Oshawa hadn't securéd a new arena yet. Orv's memories of the Generals and those heydays of course, were formost of course when he remarked, 'Why, 1 didn't think the people in Oshawa could live through a winter without a hockey arena and the Generals." The fantastic story of Las Vegas is utterly amazing. Orv. tells us that they have opened seven new hotels in the past few months and five more will be opened by the end of this summer or sooner--yet you couldn't get a reservation that on Memorial Day (last Monday). The gambling i ach hotel has one, are fabulously designed and lavishly decorated. They are opera- ted on three elghtshour shifts and the gaming tables are never closed, nor are the doors. They even vacuum the rugs and "clean up" while play is going on, in the slower hours of mid-day, One hotel has a million dollars in actual bills--on display in their SPORTS ROUNDUP By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK (AP) -- Watchin New York Giants flounder aroun the .500 line and showing no signs of ever cutting Into rooglytrs whopping lead, one finds it diffi cult to realize they are the same club which electrified the sports world by slugging the Cleveland Indians four straight in the last world series, A number of very knowing base- ball figures warned two months ago that a championship team can- not stand still, and that the Giants could not possibly hope to get all the breaks again that they got las season, They could no have been more right. Only now, when it is all too obvious that desperate measures are needed, is the Giants' front office infusing the club with fresh blood---probably too little andtoo Dlood---jrobabl too little and too late. The brea instead of going for the champions, have gone inst them istently since the race began.
