6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, August 26, 1965 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR "Everything From Soup To Nuts' BROOKLIN lacrosse rooters got their biggest thrill in years lar night, in the first game of the LA Senior 'A' championship finals, when the homesters, trailing 11-10 with only 28 seconds left to play, scored two quick' goals to snatch a 1211 victory, over Brampton Excelsiors, Second game is tomorrow night in Brampton and the third, of this of this 4-out-of-7 set, is right back in Brooklin on Saturday night, Incidentally, last year's Mann Cup champions, Van- couver Carling's, were eliminated last night and Victoria topped New Weatminster, to even up the British Columbia Junior finals at one apiece. Local fans, waiting for the Junior A" finals to start, are reminded that the playoff dates were 'revised this week, Mimico -"Mounties"invade the Civic Auditorium on Monday night, to open, the series against Green Gaels and the second game is in Mimico on Tuesday, with the third back in Oshawa a wéek from. to- night and the fourth game on Saturday in Mimico, If more of the seven games are needed, they'll be on Monday, Tues- day and Thursday of the following week, There's no game here tonight! ' OAGA PLAYOFF activity will continue at a hectic pace for the balance of this week, as long as the weatherman 18 co-operating. In addition to the Intermediate 'A' game be- tween Kingston Frontenacs and Oshawa 'Bad Boys', here at Alexandra Park tonight, we have the Oshawa Harman Park Pee Wees going to Cobourg this evening, for a six o'clock game with the Cobourg youngsters, first game of. their 2-out-of-3 series, for the right to enter the Zone cham- pionship finals, The game here at Alexandra Park tonight should be a hum-dinger, Ken Lewis, the Kingston sensation, who pitched Frontenacs to their 3-2 win, last night in King- ston, is the current whizz in the Limestone City, Their series against Trenton, who had the veteran 'Pat' Maracle as their ace pitcher, went three games, Lewis won the first game 4-1, when he allowed_only two hits and fanned 21 bat- ters, Maracle beat Al Lortie, 4-1, right in Kingston, to even the series but Kingston won. the toss and in their third game, which Frontenacs won 7-1, Lewis again allowed only two hits and this time he struck out 23, of a possible 27 batters. Since Lewis did the pitching last night at home, it's possible that Lortie, also a fine chucker, will get the call for the game here tonight, If such is the case, Lewis, who is one of his team's top hitters, will likely be playing in the left field position. OSHAWA MERCHANTS are 'at home' tomorrow night, with the Peterborough 'Outboard Marines" as the visitors, in an OASA Intermediate Industrial tilt, This is the second game of this series, Merchants having scored a handy 15-0 win behind Dan Peters' one-hitter, in the Liftlock City on Monday night, The "Industrial" series is confined to teams of players in the Intermediate category. (or lower) and they must all work in the same "industry" -- for the same firm, The Oshawa Merchants are actually the General Motors Mer: chants, This is the only series where an ASA player can sign a second certificate, in the same season, We make this point to explain how Dan Peters can play for both the Inter, "A" Oshawa Bad Boys and also the Merchants... SATUR- DAY afternoon finds two more OASA playoff games ached: uled here, Cobourg Pee Wees will visit Harman Park, at three o'clock,-for the second game of their series and at four o'clock, at Alexandra Park, Oshawa's Yunior "A" team, Scugog Cleaners will play the second game of their series, against Dobby's Sports, of the North York League. '"'Scugogs" would like to win this one at home Saturday afternoon, in order to clinch the Toronto Zone honors and have a week's rest, before tackling the Eastern Zone winners -- expected to be Brockville ...

They were trailing, 11-10 with 28 seconds to go and came from out of nowhere to take a tremendous 12-11 victory in the first game of the Eastern Canadian lacrosse finals, against the giant-killing Bramp- ton Excelsiors. It was a tremendous game all the way, one that had the fans sitting on the edge of their seats and chomping on their finger nails and banging their programs with severity. Brooklin led all the way for the first two periods, They had a slim 2-1 lead at the end of the first 20 minutes of action and it was 5-4 at the end of the second stanza, Then the play let loose and it was a goalkeep- er's nightmare and a_ fan's heart-breaker or thriller, de- pending who you were cheering for. Brampton gave it one of the best college tries we have seen in some years, They trailed throughout the ball game, but at no time did they let up. They had that true fight that helps) to make champions, as they) kept coming back to press the Brooklin team. It finally paid off as Haw tied the score at 14,55 and then Gord Thompson gave the visi- tors the go-ahead goal, for the L > Bis | et a = acl 2 DIOOKili wilaicuies Two Goals, Last 28 Seconds We can well imagine just) what coach "Bud" Christie! must have said to his charges at this stage of the game, from} the way they came out for the final 90 seconds, Jerry Burrows, who for our motiey is one of the under- estimated players in the league, worked his way into pay-dirt, after avoiding three hard checks and tied the score and lthe third Opener, | Brooklin Arena tumbling down. This was not enough, though. many of the fans including this writer would have been content at this stage, to see the game go into extra time. It was not so, as Elmer Tran, one of the smallest players in the league, but a fellow with more heart than men three times his size, took a low pass from' Burrows and made no mistake as he beat Jefferson in the losers' cage, with the goal that could be a big step to the Mann Cup finals, Ken Crawford and'dim Hink- son were the only repeat, scor- ers for the Brooklin crew, as each bagged a pair. Single tal- lies were racked up by Bob Hanna, Doug Vipond, Don Rid- ing, Ken Lotton, Don Craggs, Mike Gray, Jerry Burrows and the "big one," by little Elmer Tran, Although blanked in a scoring way, captain Glen Lotton kept at least two of the Brampton players busy, keeping track of just where he was when he had the ball and that was a lot of the time, when he was on the floor, | Ken Richardson was the big sniper for the losers, getting a 0 are ratediespecially in the final period, de thts ar y siwhen hie mates anneared to "dirty club." . . .
