When we say rookie, we refer to the "A" classifica- tion of Junior hockey. Bob is certainly no stranger to County Town hockey aficionados. He led the Hillcrest Junior "C"" club to a provincial title omly two years ago. At 26, Bob should be the youngest field general in the newly formed OHA Metro Junior loop. If the talent is there, Bob will be able to pwro- duce a competitive club. Some 50 hopefuls will get a shot at making the Whitby club. After weeding out, the border line players to arrive at a starting roster for the October 31 opening, the answer to our opem- ing question will start to take form. There is barely any doubt as to the powerhouse of the Metro league St. Michael's College Majors, 1961 Memorial Cup champions. Eight of last year's title holders are we- turning to the fold, and will be moulded neatly irri a possible repeat winner with the nucleus of last season's OHA Junior "B"" champion Buzzers. season"? KINGSTON -- ROCHESTER HERE TOMORROW While on the subject of our National game, we remind you once again about the professional hockey attraction tomorrow night at the Whitby Community arena, between the Rochester Americans of the AHI, and the EPHL"s Kingston Frontenacs. Game time ix called for 8:00 p.m. Tickets for this extra special contest are now on sale at the Community arena's box office. The Rochester line-up represents prac- tically the entire Leaf roster used in pre-season can- against other National Hockey League clubs. Gerry McNamara ahd Jerry Cheevers will share the netminding duties as previously done against the Boston Bruins and New York Rangers in exhibition tilts. Standouts on defence are Roger (bad-boy) Cote, a bruising rearguard graduated from the To- ronto Marlboros, Darryl Sly, a familiar face here after spending a couple of seasons with the Olynapic Hockey entry from Kitchener, Steve Kraftcheck. a veteran of American Hockey leagué play, and Bill White, also from Marlboros. Arnie Brown, a termific defence prospect, still in a Toronto Maple Leaf wni- form, is expected to be farmed to Rochester in fime for Wednesday's tilt with the Frontenacs. tests 5 PUNCH AND KING DISAGREE ¥ Up front, the Rochester elub displays a young, aggressive line-up, sprinkled with veterans like Dick Gamble, Ehman, and Stan Smrke.

A reminder do par- ents of the youth performing in the Whitby Mino Hockey Association this season, about the gala dance at Club Bayview this Friday night, September 29. The proceeds from this affair, which incidentally is open to any dancing enthusiasts, go to olfsetting the coming year's debts. Added ice time for the minor league this season increased their expenses considerably . What's going on in the Mann Cup finals in Western Canada?
