"10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, October 3, 1961 i MARV LUSTER, Montreal Alouettes' end, snares a high pass from quarterback Gerry § le, Thompkins, as big Ernie during the Danjean (54) of Calgary Stam- , sional football game in Mont- peders moves in for the tack- ast night interlocking East-West Canadian profes- Als In MONTREAL (CP) -- Calgary,with a wide edge--11 wins with points behind Toronto's third- Stampeders overcame a string ot bad breaks under the steady hand of quarterback Eagle Day and punched out a 6-2 win over Montreal Alouettes Monday night, closing out East - West play in the Canadian Football League's interlocking schedule. Attendance was 19,028. Day's work stood out in a ragged game marked by seven fumbles, a bare handful of big- gain plays and some of the weakest punting of the season. The Montreal attack, after a pair of big games with Gerry Thompkins at quarter, reverted to an impotent muddle and the club was left with a pitifully bleak playoff outlook. Coach Perry Moss of the Als, glumly puffing a post-game ci- gar, seized it up bluntly. "We played a lousy football game," he said. "We had plenty of breaks. We didn't deserve to win or even hang in there as we did. We've got to win the rest of them, That's all there is to it." The breaks Moss referred to included five fumbles by Cal- gary backfielders after hand- offs from Day. Four were re covered by Montreal.

The Legionnaires go to Talbot Park in Leaside tomorrow evening for the third and deciding game of the Leaside Junior League ehampionship finals. : BONIGHT, the only game on tap is the City Champ- Yonship softball playoff game at Alexandra Park. Hef fering's pounded out 15 hits off three Tony's pitchers en Saturday night, to win that one 13-9 and tie up the series. It's a 3-out-of-5 set so the winner of tonight's game will get the big jump. There should be some interesting action -- but the fans are reminded to wear the heavy coats and have car-rugs handy. And before leaving the subject of softball for today -- let's extend hearty congratulations to Murray Gillies, Danny Braid- en and their boys from Connaught Park, who Saturday brought Oshawa its first Peewee OASA title and the city's only 1961 Ontario softball championship. They've been together two years and once more proved a mute point -- a team from the narrow confines of just one "Neighborhood Area" in Oshawa can be good enough to beat out all the various all-star teams they usually meet, representing other Ontario cities and towns. There were exaxctly 16 Peewee teams in this city, this past summer and the boys from Connaught Park had enough class to win the Ontario title. They're a credit to the men who devoted hours-and-hours to coach and manage them and to the handful of Connaught Park adults who supported and helped them.
