It was Production Control that pulled the upset on the Knights iracking up 11 points without a reply, in the first few minutes of play to eventually gain a 60-48 decision and a first place tie in the League Standing with the Knights. The rejuvenated Downtown {Clowns azain served notice that {they are looking for their first iplayoff berth in three years.

The Knights made a temporary rally in the second frame with Merve Scott and Ralph Harlowe both sinking long heaves and Sol- {way adding a few points to cut the Production lead to 30-25. However Production Control gra- dually increased the lead through- out the remainer of the game with all teem members but Don Me- Garry sharing the scoring honors. Sid Gedge, Rick Solway and Ken Kelley added to the Knights' mea- gre total but it was a case of "too! little" and "too late" and the GM boys took the game: 60-48. Frank Varga, Jack Foster and, Bob Goddard were tops for the winners with Merve Scott the out:| standing player for the losers. USUAL FADEOUT ! |headway in striking pay dirt.

Lloyd Coverly and Carl Reid did most of the scoring as the Clowns humbled the Warriors 45-31. However the brains of the or- ganization were in "the Year" as Bob Vanstone on the Clowns defense strategically stopped play time and again with 'time outs" to point out his charges mistakes whenever the Warriors threatened. Lloyd Coverly with Vanstone feeding gave Clowns a first quar- ter lead 14-6. Carl Reid with a 12 point splurge and fed from all angles put the Clowns ahead 29-14 at the half. Ray Zilinsky was the only Warrior who seemed to be able to make any netted two nifties for four points "for a drop in the bucket'.

Well, the Finns left their world champion skier at home and brought along 10 un- knowns who are said to be better. That should give you an idea. The Games, which open a week from today at this Alpine village, figure to be the toughest yet. In addition to the evident in- crease in competition among the usual Olympic countries, Russia will unveil its "mystery" team in its first appearance at the winter Games. And from what the Russians have shown in warm-up meets, it may be an auspicious debut. SWEPT SKATING Only Wednesday the Russians swept the 500-metre race in the international speed-skating meet at nearby Davos, Swizerland. And here, at Italia--the graceful | Olympic ski-jump mountain -- a Russian made a leap of 262% feet, far and away the best yet in prac- tice. Stronger in near-record time over ice made "slow" by rain. The slim youth was timed in 41.15 seconds. The record is 40.8 held by Russia's Jurij Ser- geev, who finished second.

SURPRISE WINNER The Soviet surprise in the ski jump was Koba Tsakadze: from the ral mountains. His form was considered shaky, but there wsa no finding fault with his distance. Two other stars, Finland's Anti Hyvarinen and Japan's Hiroji Yoshizawa, hit only 243 feet in th best jumps, Art Devlin of Lake Placid, N.Y., was the only U.S. squad mem! to try the jump. He was disappointed with hig leaps of 205 and 200 feet but said his legs still were '"rub- bery" after the long trip here.

Campbell A SPORTS EDITOR K-W DUTCHMEN walloped the Czechoslovakia "B" team again on Wednesday. this time by a 10-1 score and the Czech newspapers has hailed the Canadian hockey team as "a well-balanced, collect- ive team without stars or prima donnas." Sportswriters praised their teamwork and passing plays and while observing that the Dutchmen had no outstanding stars such as the Warwick brothers of Penticton V's, also opined that the Dutchmen are on the whole, a stronger team and one writer said the Dutchmen "were obvious- ly holding something in the reserve for Cortina." Well, at least the Dutchmen are off on the right foot, are building up an immediate reputation for clean play and good-will. Looking over the Olympic (winter) games, we in Canada might as well enthuse over our hockey team, because frankly the prospects of winning other medals at the 1956 Games, does not appear very bright. We suspect that our speedskaters will be outclassed, certainly the. injury-riddled ski team can not not be expected to do very much. Canada's representatives in the figure-skating, the senior doubles and ladies' singles es- pecially, may finish in the first three but those gold medals are going to be mighty scarce. INTER-COUNTY senior baseball picture is obviously not nearly as rosy as some might have one believe. It's no secret that here in Oshawa, the Merchants have some 1955 obligations to clean up before they plunge into the business of organizing, even on the new reduced-pay scale, for the coming summer, Lloyd Johnston, |yKitchener scribe, writes that the general feeling at last Sunday's meeting in Galt seemed to be that while eight teams put up entry fees, noi aii are ready to reaily enter yet--they were just making sure that they are included, if they are to operate--and also mak- ing sure of protecting their rights to players in their area. Water- loo, Galt and Guelph are three that are listed as still being doubt- ful entries--while Brantford has already stated they will operate only on a share-the-wealth plan, Starting tomorrow in Winnipeg in a football meeting that may. and may not make sporting history for Canada. At Grey Cup time, it looked as if the pro football teams were ready to get together and form a Canadian Football League. Now appar- ently the feeling is not unanimous, as first thought. Bert Hall, NFL commissioner will be on hand to suggest and give advice. He's already been in.print stating that only Toronto Argos are bucking the peaceful operations between U.S. and Canadian football interests. The Big Four and Western groups will meet together Saturday, hold their own separate meetings on Sunday and then another joint session on Monday. And in the back- ground as something else to be considered is the fact that Sar- nia Imperials, while now without their Imperial Oil sponsors, are apparently ready to still carry on with a grid club--if they can get into' the big pro loop. It would seem that the ORFU has its problems too, although the report that both St. Catharines and London may enter senior teams in the ORFU this year is heartening.
