Both clubs were tied for sec- ond place going into Saturday's series and the Cleaners were all out for this one. WIN FIRST FOUR The first game was closely contested and was only decided in the last frame, with Acadians taking it with 1222-to-1212, A brilliant three-frame relief job by "Dutch" Lugtenburg was the backbreaker for the Toronto club along with Ozzie Keeler and Adams 260. The second game was also taken by Acadians, this time by a very clear margin, 1390-to- 1190. "Dutch" again played a big part with a smashing 331 game, Lloyd Sabins 299, Ozzie Keeler 259, big Bob Gallagher 248 and another excellent relief chore, this time by Hank Sarnovsky, with 203 for six frames. Acadians continued to set the pace in the third game and again took the decision with 1221 to 1082.

Acadians are hitting at a fair clip in this final series of the schedule, with their team aver- age being 1242 per game, for the 25 games rolled. The club also has a 1207 team average for the season so far. Any club making a playoff spot must be hitting at a 1250- per-game pace or their chances of even being a threat are mighty slim. If the Acadian club can maintain their present pace,, they should be a strong contender for the final playoff spot and the boys will sure be trying hard to reach this ob- jective. Ozzie Keeler was top shooter against the Jarvis club and the mighty mite had 273, 259, 306, 263 and 255 for 1356; "Dutch"' Lutenburg also had a good day with 1122 for 43 frames with games of 331, 251, 224, 221; Lloyd Sabins had 1058 for 44; Dick Adams 659 for 31; Hank Sarnovsky 683 for 26; John Hrico 180 for 6. Bob Gallagher again was a big man when he went the distance un- assisted for a nice 1211 total. Gallagher is the hottest shooter in the league at present. and when this boy is at his best, he is a valuable man to the club. Jack Pritchard was the top trundler for Jarvis with 1234; George Ruston 1233; Ernie Haley 892 for 37 frames; Joe Bash 731 for 35; Ed Reaney 628 for 26; Tom Moxon 616 for 32 and Tom McBurnie 465 for 20. This Saturday the action will be at York Bowl, with Acadian Cleaners meeting the Knob Hill club. With only two points sep- arating the clubs, it should be in six frames. Hank Sar-'another interesting series. "Together with an unlimited import rule it would throw all jobs on a club to wide - open competition. No one would sit on the bench unless he earned the spot. "I don't think we'd ever have to worry about Canadisn play- ers because the good ones, the ones that help a team, can stand up to the challenge of the imports. In fact, I believe it would lift the calibre of Cana- dian players." Establishment of a pension plan will give "ovr game more security from the players' standpoint." "Americans might not de- mand such high salaries. Today it's a case of make hay while the sun shines, but the pension plan would cut this attitude." RADIO BLACKOUT Television and radio rights should be handled under a sys- tem similar to that used by the National Footbal] League of the U.S., with all Canadian teams sharing in the pool equally. The interlocking sched- ule had made the Canadian Football League virtually a sin- gle league, so all teams should benefit from its value. "And how can footba!l execu- tives justify blacking out tele vision coverage of home games and not radio coverage? Broad- casters do an excelleni job to- day; sometimes they make the game sound better than it is." Montgomery. said football has lost its social appeal and few fans will give up latc-summer or autumn trips to tie beach and country to stay home for a weekend football game. "For this reason more games should be played during the week,"" These Ducks Prefer Stay In Calgary CALGARY (CP)--Three thou- sand ducks who didn't go south this winter are guests of the In- glewood Bird Sanctuary in sub- urban Calgary. The birds are mostly mal- lards who apparently have lost their desire to migrate. They're well fed but the main attrac- tion is a spring - fed lagoon that seldom freezes. At feeding time the ducks are joined by about 300 pheas- ants as well as owls, magpies, junket chicadees and other birds that winter in the area. When the weather is ex- tremely cold there are as many as 5,000 ducks seeking the la- goon's shelter and the hospital- ity of the sanctuary Feed includes grain and such delicacies as chocolate layer cake, jelly rolls, cinnamon buns, doughnuts, stale pies, cup cakes and bread. Much of the grain and nearly all the pastries are donated by Calgary firms. There are about 30 acres of land and water in the 60-year- old sanctuary, formerly an es- tate. It was leased for 20 years to the Alberta Fish and Game $160,000 for last season, making the 10th consecutive year that they passed the $100,000 mark. Directors of the National Foot- ball League club approved the annual report Thursday and de- clared a five-per-cent dividend for the sixth consecutive year. TAKE CAGE TITLE HAMILTON (CP) -- Toronte Berdettes captured the Ontario Junior A ladies basketball title when they downed Hamilton Checkmates 67-28 Thursday night in the second game of a two-game total - point series. Their 120-47 win in the series give them the right to meet Montreal in the Eastern Cana- - final in Toronto March 30- CANADA OUTDOORS Wild Turkeys Could Be Manioba"s Newest Crop WINNIPEG (CP) -- One of the first problems encountered in the planting of wild turkeys in southern Manitoba has been to keep them wild. The project in the Pembina Valley, near the international border 60 miles south of Winni- peg, has been carried out by a private organization known as Wild Gobblers Unlimited. Andy Blatz of Morden, Man., president of the organization, was asked in an interview how the big game. birds are doing in the severe winter that has hit southern Manitoba. "We think they are wintering very well. The severe weather wag doing them any harm at WINS OPEN GOLF CARACAS, Venezuela (AP)-- Al Geiberger of Red Bluff, Calif., got three consecutive birdies on the back nine Sunday to win the Caracas open golf, tournament. He shot a two-un- der-par 68 and finished with a two-under 278, one up on Jacky Cupit of Long View, Tex. He collected $1,500. George Knudson of Toronto tied for 10th place and won $400. His score was 70 70 74 74--288, BETTERS FOUR MINUTES BERLIN (AP) -- East Ger- many's Siegfried Herrmann be- came the world's second indoor sub-four-minute miler by regis- tering 3:59.9 at an international ural range of wild turkeys, Plants have been made previ- ously in South Dakota. About 185 birds now are spread out along the Pembina Valley. Although they have trou- ble, as ground feeders, getting through 15 to 20 inches of snow for food, Mr. Blatz says "they'll take a lot of abuse; the least of our worries is the winter." FEAR PREDATORS The hatching season ig the most difficult. Predators, the worst of which are skunks, get at the nests. Other natural ene- mies are horned owls and crows, However, birds checked as recently as early February were in the pink of condition. Last fall, some were trapped and weighed. A scale with a capacity of 25 pounds couldn't handle some of the year-old toms. Some game officials are wore ried that the wild birds will mix with domesticated turkeys and ruin the wild strain. But Howie Larkie, representative of a brewery which is one of.the or- ganization's supporters, says that as far as he knows all the groups backing the project are satisfied with progress, Twelve to 14 organizations be- long to the association which is open to any group interested in promoting the project. They pay $50 initiation fees. By Jack Sords There had been some losses from a late hatch but these were not unexpected. GAINING KNOWLEDGE Mr.. Blatz was questioned about the fears of some wildlife experts that when times get tough the turkeys move into civilization, scrounging for feed in cattle feed lots and around farmyards. He admitted this was the case with some turkeys released earlier but the latest crop "'are getting wild." As far as the first flocks are concerned, "'what we are losing by domestication we are regain. ing in knowledge of the birds."
