a 'St. Mikes Wiajors Edge Mohawks On G e By GERRY BLAIR Whitby Mohawks gave the St. Michael's College Majors their most difficult struggle of the Metro Junior "A" schedule be- fore bowing to the Irish, 1-0, last night at the St. Michael's ' s Lone Tally contest. Neither club was hit- ting to any alarming degree. . « St. Mike's increased their league-lead to nine points over the second place Marlboros. Whitby remained in third spot two points behind the Marlies erratic passing and close check- ing by the Irish. } St. Michael's rearguards, led by Terry Clancy gave a flaw- less performance by smother- ing Whitby players around their goal, giving them little chance HAMILTON SPORTS FIGURE GETS A REWARD Norman (Pinky) Lewis, vet- eran Hamilton football train- er, hockey coach and general all-round sports booster, was honored this week by almost 1,000 loyal Hamilton friends. Lewis was honored especial- ly for his work over the years, with children. Here he holds telegram from his many friends from coast - to- | coast. "Pinky" has been well cutee By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR eo 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' WEEK-END REVIEW: -- At a quick glance, the big sports event of the week-end would appear to be the National Football Browns visiting New York Eagles playing the Lions in League bill, with Cleveland Giants and Philadelphia Detroit. The Eagles have to win! If the Eagles win -- they may finish up tied for first place in the Eastern Division -- providing the Browns beat the Giants in New York. If the Giants win. tomorrow -- it's all over, and they're in -- in the finals, against Green Back Packers. But if Browns win and Eagles also triumph, then there'll be a play- off game next week, betwe en Eagles and Giants, in New: York. The Giants appear to be pretty hot right now and if they stop Cle veland's Jimmie Brown, then they've got a good chance to take it all tomorrow. Plum, the Cleveland quarterback, hasn't shown too much against the Giants and the Giants, on the other hand, have both Tittle and Conerly ready to give their all for dear old Alma Mammy. The U.S. professional football games attract a great deal of that we feel the Canadian interest here -- so much professional club owners, bosses, directors, sports writers, etc., shouldn't even consider that Ottawa sugges tion that Canadian rules be changed to an 11-man team and four downs, instead of three. If we ever lose the little bit of Canadian iden- tity we have left -- you can start forgetting professional - football in this country. We'll be about as third-class as we are in professional bas eball rating. DETROIT LIONS will likely lose to the Eagles to- morrow. The Detroit players hanged their general man- ager Edwin J. Anderson "in e ffigy" from the goal posts known and highly regarded in for more than the past quarter- Hamilton sports circles to gain a clear shot. Whitby's defence also played well, and were especially ef- fective in covering up on Per- ani's rebounds.

Strathroy had piled up 73 points in three games against the Royals, Galt Terriers gained 77 points in two games. The Bulldogs had scored 29 points in one game against the Royals. Irwin Gross of Windsor dur- ing the last week gained two as- sists to pull farther ahead of the scoring pack. He has 33 points, six more than his two nearest rivals, teammates, Tommy Walker and Lou Bendo. Goaltenders didn't escape the eraser.
