6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, February 2, 1985 SPORTS MENU 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR THE "FIGHT GAME" rates the major share of ink, in the sports pages across the continent today, and for a variety of reasons, some of which are excellent. Here in Canada, and particularly in this immediate area, interest in last night's non-title heavyweight bout in New York's Madison Square Garden, was naturally at a high point, with Canadian cham- pion George Chuvalo as one of the combatants. His hometown Toronto fight fans were hoping for a victory, then a subse- quent world-title bout against Cassius Clay. But this didn't happen -- Floyd Patterson won a unanimous decision, his box- ing skill and footwork, plus experience, being quite equal to stave off the bull-like rushes of the burly Toronto fighter. It was one more example of a good boxer getting a decision over a tough fighter. One ringside critic saw it as nine rounds for Patterson, two for Chuvalo and one even. x x x x THE ACTUAL RESULT of the bout, however, wasn't as important, in our opinion, as the by-product. Last night "the fight game" regained a lot of stature lost in recent years. They put the glamor and color of 'fight night" back into the sport, especially at Madison Square Garden. They hung up the §.R.0, sign and for the first time in a long while, it didn't mean Standing Room Only -- it meant Sold Right Out! There wasn't a ticket to be had, of any kind and even some passes were refused. The attendance is given at 19,100, which has got to be a lot of people to cram into "The Garden"--as anyone who has even been in it, can testify. Besides the fer- vor and excitement gener- ated by such a crowd, packed in close quarters, which would certainly bring "'the good old days'"' back vividly to the New Yorkers, there was the money's worth value for the custom- ers. This was a good fight, "the superior contestant emerged triumphant", but it was also a clean fight, both before, dur- ing and after. There was none of those "'nasty cracks" which 60 often emerge in fight interviews, the bout itself was hard but clean -- and for a change -- it went the limit. Needless to say, a return match is very likely! x x x x BOBBY HULL has gone five games without scoring a goal, and for the Chihawk wizard, this has to be considered a major slump, especially this season, as it has brought a pause to what appeared to be his headlong rush to a new NHL scor- ing record.

In the Protestant Church hockey action on Saturday, there were four extremely close games, out of the six play- ed in the Atom League sched- ule, with such scores as 1-0; 1-1; 2-1 and 0-0, as the youngsters found the checking close and hard skating provided better protection for the goalies. They played it more wide- open in the Mite division, with 4-0 and 4-3 as the final tallies. Exhibition games Saturday night were 5-2 and 5-1, giving the supporters plenty to cheer about, League officials were glad to see referee Bill Clark, back on the scene, even though con- fined to the stands, with his leg in a cast. Bill suffered a broken leg, while refereeing, early in the season. ATOM ACTION Harmony United blanked St. Andrew's United 1-0. The lone goal of the game was slapped in by Peter Falaise of Har- mony. Ken Séott, the goalie for Harmony, received his fifth hard-earned shutout of the sea- But the 27-year-old Canadian, who weighed 208 to Patterson's 19714, seemed on his way to an out of steam under Patterson's steady sniping and cleverness. That made the big difference needed to win. Rinks In. In the final contest, Canadian Tire whipped Local 2784 in a wide-open game 7-2. Dennis Ashton led the winners with two goals. Other marksmen were George Montpetit, Dale Butler, Paul Williams, Randy Maddock and Paul McVety. For Local 2784, Lawrence Wry and Bruce Cousins had singletons.

Middlesbrough won 2-1 Bailey was injured in a goal- mouth scramble. referees, claiming Hull is being "fouled out" of his chance for a new record. He, Ivan, insists the officials are not call- ing a quarter of the penalties deserved by the opposition players who are checking or "'stopping" Hull. Ivan may have a point but he certainly has to expect that rival teams are going to give his ace the double-trump treatment.
