Campbell SPORTS EDITOR Several Veterans Making Big Bids For Regular Jobs thoughts turn to many things. jobs in major l8ague baseball, [ THE MAD MONTH OF MARCH--Even in Caesar's time it was never as "mad as in these modern days of hockey playoffs in the month of March--is now really with us. Montreal Canadiens whip- ped N.Y. Rangers 7-1 on Tuesday night when coach Phil Watson's strategy of playing defensive hockey didn't work out. the Rangers could have picked up a couple of early goals, he would wide-open action, the free-wheeling Habs had it all their own way. Now, for ballyhoo purposes, Watson is talking of shaking up his line-up. The truth is he hasn't got too much chance of doing any shaking-up. The truth is, they shouldn't try to blame it on Worsley or anybody else--this 1955-56 edition of Montreal Canadiens is sim- ply red-hot and they'r going to make 'em all look bad at times. Looking at the other series, we find that Toronto Leafs are almost happy. They came so close to upsetting the Red Wings that it borderd on a moral victory, The Detroit club came to life in the third period, just in time to salvage the big one, that first game of the series. Now when they go at it again tonight, Leafs are under more pressure. They have to win tonight in or- der to maintain some semblance of a mathematica chance. An- other Red Wing triumph will just about put the Detroit club in the mood to start selling tickets for the Stanley Cup finals. And one other thing stands out--Leafs will likely do no better at home against the Wings than they can do right on Detroit ice-- so this one is a must for them, INTER-COUNTY baseball news is beginning to seep in now, that April approaches. The Brantford Red Sox have signed three Oakville players, pitcher Ron Patton, shortstop Bob Salvisburg and catcher Bud Thompson, along with a couple of good Juniors from Paris. Walt McFadden, a Dresden ball player who was with Lon- don as a Junior three years ago, is out with St. Thomas. He is a catcher. They also have Pete Melanchuk, who played a lot of Jun- for ball out Delisle, Sask. way, as a second baseman, before going to Aylmer as a hockey goalie, They are planning a Junior school in St. Thomas soon, to see what material is available--a good idea! The Dublinski case is keeping football very much in the sports mews these days. Detroit Lions are suing for an injunc- | tion against Dublinski playng for Argos plus $10,000 damages. Dublinski's counsel is arguing that the Detroit Club's contract | and the U.S. footall system of "draft" is a form of enforcing | slavery. It all makes very interesting reading and of course | will have a direct bearing (or will it) on the contracts signed in | the future between Canadian football clubs and their U.S. im. | port stars.

Shaw's A's won their third-straight victory in a very close contest to sweep the semi - finals over Alger Press without a loss. The first period saw Alger Press take a two-goal lead. Doug Cole scored twice, with assists going to A. Baker and E. Hughes. During this period the play was very fast and only two penalties were handed out, one to each team. The A's got under way early in the second period, with England scoring from Durno, at the :52 mark. Bouckley batted home Scero's rebound at 1:48 to tie the score at 2-2, Both teams battled hard through- out the period and finally at 17:23. Durno scored unassisted, to give the A's a 3-2 lead, going into the third period. The third period saw E. Bradley score from MacLeillann at 8:33, only to have G. Lawrence retal-| liate for Alger's less than a min- ute later. Durno scored at 12:55 again from Scero to give the A's a two-goal lead. The Pressmen fought back de- sperately and finally Lawrence got his second of the period thus| closing the gap to 5-4, where the! score remained at the sound of the buzzer. | Alger Press played very welll considering they had only nine] players present and were further| hampered by one man sitting out eight minutes in penalties in the last period. | Outstanding for the A's were K.!

Rocket Richard' Sense Of Humor Is Mighty Keen MONTREAL (CP) Rocket Richard, who scored three goals, came up with the best crack of the night after Montreal Canadiens had mopped up New York Ran- gers 7-1 in the opening game of their Stanley Cup semi-final. "It has been a long time since I score in a playoff," said the colorful right winger without crack- ing a smile. Just a year ago the Rocket didn't even get into the play- offs--by order of president Clar- ence Campbell of the National Hockey League. The Rocket was sidelined for a wild outburst in Boston in the final week of the | regular NHL season.

'feachers, who conducted the schoolboy curling activities throughout the past season, togeth- er with the principals of the two local Collegiate Institutes and offi- cers of the Curling Club, alon with trophy donors, were on han as guests, but this was really the schoolboys' own big night. CHAIRMAN'S REMARKS Alfred Bino, of Central Collegi- ate, very capably fulfilled the diffi- cult role of chairman for the af- fair. In his remarks, he reviewed "Joe" Roberts, for his whole- hearted co-operation. Oshawa Curling Club president 'Ab" Nobins congratulated, the young curlers on their fine curling and also upon their conduct dur- ing the past season and expressed the hope that the organization would continue. PRESENTATION OF TROPHIES All the young curlers were "right on the broom' for the ban- quet itself but following this activ- ily, the highlight of the program was the presentation of the vari- cus prizes.
