p THe OSHAWA TIMES, Frieey, May @, 1906 _ Spotlighting ... THE GENERALS By WREN BLAIR General Manager of Oshawa Generals Well, we can forget about an easy final with the West for 1965-66. The Edmonton "Oil Kings" stormed into Toronto on Tuesday full of confidence that this was their year. Wednesday night they open- ed the series by hammering out a convincing 7-2 win over our Generals. Let us hasten to point out that the Generals probably never played worse all season, but notwithstand- ing that fact, this Edmonton club will take a lot of beating. They are big and strong, can skate and shoot and these are the necessary ingredients for a good hockey club. The "Oil Kings" are actual- ly an all-star club embracing the entire province of Alberta and they competed in the Al- berta Senior Hockey League' | during the season, Edmonton Club Given Special Ruling The CAHA rule book says that a club cannot compete for the Memorial Cup unless they play in a regular Junior "A" league within their own branch. However, we now under- stand that this rule was waived last summer for the Edmonton club, and why, is something we cannot figure out. But assuming we are gen- erous enough to allow this situ- ation to exist, whereby they ignore the rule to play in a bona fide Junior league in their own branch, how then can the CAHA justify their be- ing able to pick up three of the best Junior "A" players from the province of Saskatchewan? This all-star club from two provinces now meets a club from the province of Ontario, where eight Junior "A" clubs, along with Oshawa split up the talent (Junior Canadiens, the 9th team, are from Quebec). Ontario Talent Shared By 8 Clubs Even though the Ontario tal- ent is divided by eight clubs, this team is allowed no pick- ups and must now play the best from two provinces. If it were a Saskatchewan or a Manitoba winner, where these provinces have six clubs dividing up the Junior talent, and are more thinly populated than Ontario, we could give some justification to the pick- Ss. But when the winner from the West is Edmonton, in no way should bhey be allowed any pick-ups, because they have already picked the best talent from the entire prov- ince of Alberta. Nevertheless, in the face of this unfair situation, the Gen- erals must go on. Our kids can still win this series, but only | if they can return to the type of hockey they played against Montreal and Kitchener. Any- thing less, will see the Memor- ial Cup back in Western Can- ada. : Oshawa's forwards are going to have to fly into those cor- ners with the type of fore- checking they stopped Junior Canadiens with, and if the "Oil Kings" then break: out, they must '"'steam back" on the wings and take them out of the play. The defence was guilty of very poor clearing in Wednesday's game and this must also improve. Large Contingent Of Fans Can Help Something else that may help the Generals get back on the right track after two rela- tively easy series, is a big crowd of Oshawa fans in Maple Leaf Gardens filling the joint with hundreds of cheers of "'Go, Generals Go". Large groups of fans ¢ertain- ly cannot guarantee a victory but it goes a long way with youngsters at the Junior level. It's this city's first crack at a Memorial Cup in 22 years and we would like to see Maple Leaf Gardens humming with folks from the Motor City this weekend, tonight and Sunday afternoon. The Generals have their hands full, let's face it! They | need all the support locally they can get! SEEKS TWO - IN-A-ROW Shoemaker Making Bid For 'Kentucky Double' By BOB COOPER LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP)--Bill Shoemaker, trying to become the first jockey in 64 years to ride two Kentucky Derby win- ners in a row, climbs aboard pre-race favorite Abe's Hope in Saturday's 92nd Derby. Abe's Hope, from the Grand Prix Stable of Joe Bartell and Robert Byfield, was made a 5-2 favorite by the Churchill Downs handicapper Thursday. A field of 16, including two questionable starters, were en- tered Thursday, each adding Padgett, sounding very doubt- ful, said Ray Broussard will be his jockey 'if we really start."

The four retiring members, | their term expired, were Oscar Parker, Bob Mercer, Harry Gay and Don Crothers. {n addition, a letter of resignation had been received from club director "Waddy" Oke.

It has been bother- ling him for the last few weeks but so far hasn't affected his play. However, the leg caused him enough pain in Wednesday's cup opener, won 7-2 by Oil Kings, that he was permitted to miss the team workout Thurs- day night. » "We just decided to give him a rest and keep him off his skates until game-time," said Oshawa coach Bep Guidolin. | "It bothered me a bit Wed- jnesday night," said Orr, "but it will be okay."

The Oil Kings were on the ice Thursday morning for a skate, and light scrimmage. They spent the afternoon at the ball park watching Toronto Maple Leafs lose 9-6 to Richmond Braves. UNHAPPY WITH GOALIE Edmonton coach Ray Kinase- wich expressed disappointment over the play of his goalie Don McLeod in Wednesday's game. "I thought Oshawa got a couple of soft goals," said Kinasewich. McLeod handled only 20 shots, 12 of them from the stick of Orr, who scored one of Osh- awa's two goals, his 22nd in playoff competition this year. Guidolin said his team doesn't usually play a hard - hitting game, but may have to resort Oil Kings.

DUES ARE RAISED Only one financial item, of general interest to the whole membership, was introduced and received almost unanimous approval. This was the recom- mendation by the 1965-66 direc- tors that club dues be increased by $10.00 and that club initia- tion fees by $25.00. In future, Oshawa Curling Club active members pill pay $60.00 per annum, in dues, social mem- bers will be assessed $35.00 and the initiation fee will be $75.00. Success of this motion with the members was the realiza- tion, that in spite of rising costs, this was the first increase in since the previous mid-season Jack Judge, treasurer, pre- club man- ady dues, in the past eight years. | | SEE NATIONS INDIANS O.L.A.
