oe Oshawa Generals 6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, March 22, 1966 ~ | BLANK KINGSTON HERE, 4 -0 SPORTS menu Crushmen Tie Series Via Shutout Victory / By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR BOOTS! BOOTS! etc. -- wasn't that the way Kipling put it? Well, it really doesn't matter, except to give us an entree -- but in the current Oshawa-Montreal series, we suspect that both 'Scotty' Bowman and "Bep" Guidolin, respective coaches of the Montreal Junior Canadiens and Oshawa Generals, will have their own version of a clarion call to action -- and it'll go something like this -- SKATE! SKATE! SKATE! MONTREAL CANADIENS eliminated Hamilton Red Wings ovithout losing a game, truly a real feat in any Junior hockey series these days, especially since Rudy Pilous had his team in top form. In doing the job, the Junior Habs established one obvious fact, they're a real skating team and play their best hockey when going at full throttle. We didn't see Sunday night's game in Montreal but eye-witness reports say that the Canadiens were still "flying" but there was just one snag -- Oshawa Generals were flying a little bit faster. This could be the key to this crucial semi-final series. Oshawa hockey fans have "'caught fire'? -- the atmos- phere last Saturday afternoon at the Civic Auditorium (and by the way, the attendance was a surprising sell-out size) reminded one "of the good old days". Nobody knew for sure that there'd be a game Saturday afternoon, until very late Friday night -- and yet, on such short notice, they came up with a SRO crowd, as early as 1:30 Saturday afternoon, Proof positive to all club managers, presidents, coaches and what-have-you -- it's not the lack of "publicity" that keeps the fans away -- if you have "a product" -- the fans know and they're ready to buy, without much urging. Comment- ing on Saturday afternoon's big crowd, one hockey fan put it this way -- "If they can get that kind of a crowd on such short notice, maybe the Generals should play all their home games on Saturday afternoon'. Well, it might be good for the pop and pop-corn sales, but they'd have to charge full price for children's tickets -- or there wouldn't be room for the adults! OSHAWA GENERALS covered themselves with glory and distinction over the weekend. They almost avoided all that unfortunate hassle of a 7th game, which pre-empted the Oshawa Skating Club's carnival preparations, rehearsals, etc., by winning the sixth game right in St. Kitts, but the homesters got the tie-breaker late in the game, seconds after Oshawa had bounced the puck off the goal-post. How- ever, the Generals left no doubt the next afternoon and that 8-1 victory here was a real triumph, marred only by the serious head injury.to Brian Morenz. Morenz, by the way, is reported today to be still in "fair. condition'. The icing on the cake was provided on Sunday evening when the Generals flew into Montreal via jet and kept right on flying, to upset the Junior Canadiens on their own ice, in the first game of the semi-final series. That is the big one -- but then, we hope the Generals remember that St. Catharines Black Hawks did just that to them, in the first game, but the Oshawa boys came back to take the round. Now, if the Gen- erals can keep this in mind and rap Montreal here tonight for a 2-0 lead in this set, then we could just, maybe-perhaps, dare to think of meeting Marlboros in the OHA finals. At any rate, tonight's game should be a real sizzler! MARLBOROS whipped Kitchener Rangers 6-1 and did the job with almost complacent ease, on Sunday afternoon, but the Rangers should make it a lot tougher in the second game tonight. But so much for "the other guys" let's get back to the hometown action and hand out some praises for our Junior "B'" Crushmen, They launched an almost overwhelming second-period attack in Kingston, on Satur- day, and still couldn't take the lead, in the first game of their Eastern final series, but they evened the set with a superlative team effort, here at the Civic Auditorium last night. The 4-0 win not only tied the round at one win apiece, but it should serve to give the Oshawa lads the confidence they need to grab off a win in the Limestone City and go on to win a berth in the Ontario finals.

Plantation Bowl Blanks Scugogs The Scugog Cleaner five-pin club was handled rather roughly by the Plantation Bowl entry when the Toronto club took all three games, by a convincing margin, in Willowdale Major League play, at Willow Bowl. Racking up games of 1,420, 1339 and 1282 for a 4,041 team total, the Plantation club was worthy of the shutout, when Scugogs rolled 1,176, 1,183 and 1,206 for 3,565. , Last year 10 the title in games Other top scorers for Planta tion were, Corky Rumsam 838: Keith Barrett 823; Ken Roy 787 and Paul Wilkinson 701.

Saskatchewan has the bye. of Mrs.| It was obvious from the start that the Oshawa crew was in for a bad night, being too deadly on the centre pin, with 'Fdd Moody and Al Perry being the only two Scugog shooters to a break : Young Dave Bishop showed signs of improvement when in trouble, when he had fourteen consecutive hits, not one strike, but never left a pin on the alley. This kind of bowling will win many games in tournament play Fred. Halle, President of the O.B.C., was the top shooter for Plantation with 892 for his three- game total which is a fine effort, especially for a man who is as busy as Fred.

Flawless goaltending, a stur- dy defence, two big scoring lines, and one checking line totalled a key victory for Osh awa Crushmen here last night.

Both teams started out as if it was a do-or-die-game and lemployed. tight checking, and close drives on rival goaltenders 'had the crowd on the edge of | their seats right through. It wasn't until the late min- utes of the opening period that the Flyers finally hit the score- sheet, when Norm Weales took a pass from Dean Evens and went in to beat Greener, with a low drive. In the second period it was the same style of game until the 8:15 mark, when J. Rowden took relays from M. Bryan and B. Bradey to tie the game. At the 12:30 mark the Flyers, again took the lead on a goal by Gibson with Gerry Garnett and Dean Evens: earning the assists. B. Bradey tied the score on a pass from M.

Northern scored a decisive 12-5 victory over Ontario's Harvey Acton rink in the afternoon draw and added an easy 10-6 win against Quebec in the second round. The Manitoba rink of Ernie Boushy, who won the inaugural championship at Toronto's Royal Canadian Curling Club two years ago, maintained an undefeated record. when he edged Quebec's Art Lobel 7-6 in the afternoon draw and downed Ontario 9-4. in the evening round Boushy, 32, an oil company representative in Winnipeg who finished third in 1965, scored three in the first end and forced Acton to count singles in the four ends Ontario won.

Late in the game, penalties began to come fast for both teams and in the last two min- utes there were three Flyers and one Quality fuels player serving in the sin-bin Quality Fuels took out their goaltender for the added extra man and almost tied up the score a number of times, before the final bell. Three players who certainly deserve high praise are Dean Evens and Dave Stanley, who scored the winner, and also Brian Pigden, who played a good defensive game for the Fuelsmen, PLAY AGAIN SUNDAY The next game will be played Three unanswered third-period Park a 4-1. victory over Nipigon Satur- day in.

Generals flew into Montreal last Saturday nicht for their first game against the Junior Habs on Sunday. Supposedly worn out by Friday night and Saturday afternoon games against St. Catharines Black Hawks, Generals surprised the restless Montrealers with a 5-3 victory. It was the first loss of the playoffs for Canadiens, after they eliminated Hamilton Red Wings, without a loss, in the quarter-finals. After playing only mediocre hockey for the second half of the regular schedule, Generals appear to be hitting a peak sim- ilar to the one they hit before Christmas. The largest crowd of the sea- son is expected to be on hand as Generals attempt to take a stranglehold on the series. The game will also provide an op- portunity for Danny O'Shea, Wayne Cashman, Bobby Orr and Billy White to add to their already lofty point totals.
