© THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, August 16, 1966 SPORTS BEAT By ERIC WESSLBY Times Sports Editor Green Gaels and Toronto, Township served up one of the more pleasing lacrosse games of the year at Civie Auditorium Monday night and if that game means any- thing, this should be a dandy series. After overcoming a 3-0 deficit, Gaels went on to take a 9-3 lead and probably thought that, as in previous games with other clubs, this one was in the bag. PCO's, however, had different ideas and they proceeded to battle back and take the lead once again. Gaels failed to panic, as might be expected in such a situation, and soon had the situation under control once again. ROSS JONES AND Gaylord Powless, who came in for more than their share of abuse from the PCO's, proved once again they can still deliver when the going gets tough, although there for a while in the second period it didn't appear as if Jones was going to be able to con- tinue. Biggest mystery of the evening was why there was no penalty to Toronto Township on this play. If Jones wasn't fouled while heading for the bench then Christmas will come in January: Referee Jerry Ravari certainly couldn't be faulted over his hearing in this one, because he sure heard what Brian Thompson and coach Jim Bishop had to say, even over the angry bellowing of the crowd. Oh, well, that's what makes a lacrosse game. OSHAWA ACADIAN CLEANERS are currently engaged in three baseball series, Eastern Ontario Association semi- finale, Ontario Basbeall Association playoffs and Leaside League. Manager Jim Lutton is more than a little perturbed over the apathy of some of the players, despite the club's success in all three competitions. Saturday was a good ex- ample, Following a game in Toronto Friday, at least 12 players indicated to the manager they'd be on hand for an EOBA playoff game with Port Hope Sunday afternoon at Alexandra Park. Come game time Saturday, however, only nine players were available, including one who could hardly walk. Players who were working later showed up and a couple of bantams were pressed into service but the attitude of the ones who failed to show is something that bothers Lutton. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND why anyone would bother to turn out for a team at the start of the season if he doesn't plan to finish the year. Even if-something crops up to keep a player away from a game, he could still take time to phone whoever is in charge and let him know he won't be there. This not only goes for junior baseball players, all sports at the amateur level are plagued with this situation, with the exception of Jim Bishop's Green Gaels, where even missing : a practice is a punishable offence. OSHAWA MODERN GRILL Thistles will be battling for a berth in the Canadian soccer championships when they tackle London at Kinsmen Stadium this Saturday in the second game of a two-game, total - goal Ontario final series, By holding London to a 2-2 draw in London Saturday, Thistles achieved something of a mental victory. Now all they have to do is win before their home fans and a trip to Winnipeg will be theirs. A report from Winnipeg says provincial all-star teams will compete, although we under- stand Ontario will be represented by either Thistles or Lon- don. Ontario has been grouped with Manitoba and British Columbia while Saskatchewan, Alberta and Quebec are in the other group. The tourney gets under way Aug. 28 with the group winners meeting Sept. 3. Following the tourna- men', 30 players will be selected to try out for a Canadian national soccer team to be formed later this year. The nal team will provide Canada's entry at the 1967 Pan- American Games in Winnipeg, as well as in the 1968 Olympic Games. TORONTO HOCKEY fans aren't the only ones who'll pay more money to watch their heroes perform this season. Chicago Black Hawks have increased ticket prices on all except first and second balcony seats in Chicago Stadium. Box seats, which cost $6 last season, have gone up to $7. The 1,200 arena seats, those on the main floor around behind the goals, have been raised from $4.75 to $5.50, Other tickets go for $4.75 and $4.25.

By THE CANADIAN PRESS | Joe Louis, just a year away from the world heavyweight boxing crown, knocked out Jack Sharkey in the third round 30 years ago today--in 1936--in New York. Sharkey was then on his way down, having held the championship in 1932 but losing it to Primo Car- nera. é | | | After falling behind 1-0 in the top of the first, Cleaners wasted little time tying the score. Cook- son doubled to left and scored or Rod Williams single up the middle. In the second, Boyd singled off Hallett's glove, took second on a sacrifice and scored on George Wilson's single to centre Cleaners wrapped up the deci- sion with a four-run splurge in the sixth. 3oyd started the rally with single and scored on Watters' Wilson walked, Carroll singled, scoring Watters, and Cookson tripled for two more runs.

Both series will be 2-out-of-3 (four points) affairs but will open on different dates. Hamp- ton and Solina will swing into their series tomorrow (Wednes- day) evening, at 7.15 o'clock, in Solina with Maple Grove and Zion playing their first game, in Zion, on Saturday night, at 7.15 o'clock. Winners of these two rounds will meet in a 3-out-of-5 final series, for the season's title. Solina plays back at Hampton on Saturday, August 27, while Zion's return' game in Maple Grove will be on Wednesday, August 24. Prior to announcing the play- off draw, the league had to decide upon third and fourth positions in the final standing, since Hampton and Maple Grove finished tied with 23 points apiece, in the final stand- ings. Maple Grove got "the call" as third-place team by virtue of a better goal average, but their margin was extremely slim.
