@ THE OSHAWA 'TIMES, Saturday, September 24, 1966 SPORTS BEAT Pro Backing Dropped, Junior Clubs Folding Sen wmrearny We Mecdavaces & Ene Times Sports Editor When the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association and the National Hockey League announced recently that 1966-. 67 would be the final season of amateur hockey clubs there for professional sponsorship were many cries of "hurrah". Now the amateurs would be able to run thir own show. Now the main thing amateur clubs need to operate is money, something out with reckless abandon for the pros had been dishing lo these many seasons. ONLY A FEW clubs have been able to survive down through the seasons without being bankrolled by profes- sional interests, and these clubs have found it mighty tough sailing trying to compe' te for, and hold, outstanding players. Most depended on home grown or district youths and there always was a feeling of contentment when the tam developd into a contender, maybe not for provincial honors, but for league laurels. AT LEAST TWO clubs have folded because financial support from the pros won't be forthcoming this season. Brampton has withdrawn from the Metro Junior "B" League and word is that Hamilton won't have a club in the Niagara District Junior " B" League. We can't under- stand why Brampton can't get enough financial support to operate a junior "'B" club. The club wouldn't have that great a bill for travelling, with Whitby the longest journey. HAMILTON HAS two excuses for not operating a club. One is money. The other, and this has to be a laugh, club president Sid Bibby says there aren't enough local players to enter a contending team. If centres such as Owen Sound, Waterloo, St. Mary's, Chatham and Sarnia can operate junior '"B" teams, and stock them mainly with homebrew talent, there must surely be enough hock- ey players around Hamilton to ice a team. PRESIDENT DICK Donald of Oshawa Crushmen says they will operate this season, although there'll be no finan- cial backing from Boston. "We think we have to proceed here, in order to maintain junior 'A' hockey in the future," he said. "A junior 'A' club in more than ever on development of junior the future will be dependent 'B' players locally. Our directors are going to try to sell season tickets for the Crushmen's home games. The club will be composed mainly of local players." ALL THE SHOOTING is n't over in the proposed agreement to end pro sponsorships, however. Sid Abel, general manager of Detroit Red Wings, recently told Windsor Star sports editor Jack Dulmage he'd heard that certain franchise operators in the American Hockey League intend to defy the new agreement and go ahead on their own to sponsor clubs. said, "we'd have to do the "Tf they go ahead," Abel same thing to protect our- selves. The pro-amateur agreement would break down and heaven knows what would happen then." Jim Hall of Midland, Texas, broke: his own lap record by two seconds Fri- day at Mosport in time trials for the Canadian Grand Prix for sports cars. He pushed his Chev-power- JIM HALL SETS LAP RECORD ed Chaparral around the 2.5 mile circuit in one min- ute, 22.9 seconds, an aver- age of 106.7 miles per hour. Hall has his Chaparral equipped with a "'spoiler"', which hangs above his head like a parasol and keeps the car on the ground when he tears down the back straight at better than 150 mph. --Oshawa Times Photo by Bruce Jones Competition in the Oshawa High Schools Senior Football League should be excellent this season if the North-South cont- est played Friday-is any indica- tion, Sparked by an 85-yard pass- and-run play to McLaughlin's Jerry Mays, that paid off in a touchdown, the North took a 26-20 decision over the South at Kinsmen Stadium in the second half of a doubleheader. In the opener, a strong O'Neill junior squad paced the North to a 26-6 triumph. The teams get down to ser- ious competition next week, with Friday's doubleheader serving as a tuneup. Only Central failed to score two touchdowns in the senior Northern Teams Post Doubleheader Win game, and that was the dif- ference between the clubs. A recovered fumble deep in the Donevan territory gave O'Neill a second chance at a touchdown late in the first quar- ter after an earlier surge failed, and John Janets romped 12 yards for the major, which was not converted. Rain made conditions rugged minutes before the touchdown and forced many of the spec- tators to cover. The 85-yard touchdown by Mays, which he also coriverted was the only scoring in the second quarter, with McLaugh- lin containing Central. Donevan scored a pair of touchdowns against McLaugh- lin's one \in the third quarter. di M Toronto Senior Revival Recalls Days By JIM CRERAR TORONTO (CP) -- It has been a long time between seasons for the Varsity Grads hockey team -- more than 38 years. The club, made up of gra- duates of the University of Toronto, last played in 1928 when they swept the Olympic champonsihips in St. Moritz, Switzerland. ' The resurrected Grads, formed by a group of busi- hessmen headed by lawyer Joe Kane, will be based in the Toronto suburb of North York and wil play in the On- tario Hockey Association se- nior series. "The nucleus of the team will be university graduates living in the Toronto area," says Kane, a former hockey coach at the U. ot T. But unlike their predeces- sors, the new Grads will have players from several unver- sities and some who never went to college. If tradition means anything, the present-day Grads should do well. The Unversity of Toronto swept to three con- secutive intercollegiate titles starting in 1924 and twice reached the Allan Cup finals, losing to Port Arthur in 1925 and 1926. The team remained intact after most of the players fin- ished schoo] and, as the Var- sity Grads, won the Allan Cup in 1927, defeating Fort Wil- liam in a tough series in Van- couver. WENT TO OLYMPICS The victory earned them a trip to the 1928 Olympics Badminton Club Ready To Play Play for beginners will start Monday and Wednesday at the Oshawa Y Badminton Club, which operates at the new YWCA Auditorium. Official opening night will be Of Glory with they wen easily. drub- bing Sweden 11-0, England 14-0 and Switzerland 3-0. Grads were coached by Conn Smythe, who was later to build Toronto Maple Leafs into a hockey power. Their manager was W. A. (Billy) Hewitt, the sportsman who died Sept. 11. Most of the players went on to successful careers in busi- ness and the professions, al- most all of them in Toronto. Dr. Joe Sullivan, the goal- tender, is a prominent ear specialist who was appointed to the Senate by John Diefen- baker in 1957. On defence were Jack (Red) Porter, the team captain, now a director of a large depart- ment store chain, and Ross Taylor, a lawyer. Hugh Plaxton was at centre and his brothers Bert and the late Roger Plaxton were sub- stitutes. Hugh went on to play for Montreal Maroons of the National Hockey League and now practses law with Bert. Dr. Lous Hudson, now of Timmins, Ont., was at right wing and the late Dave Trot- | tier at left wing. Trottier, | Eastern Canada representa- tive for an oil company, died in Halifax three years ago. Rounding out the team were Grant Gordon, who died three years ago after a law career, Joe Suilivan's brother Frank, who also played for Toronto Granites when they won the Allan Cup in 1921, the late Stuffy Mueller, a lawyer, Charlie Delahay, now in the auto business, and Frank Fisher, a businessman. TEACHERS ON TEAM Kane plans to invite former | Grads to become honorary di- | rectors of the new club, the | first Senor A team in Toronto Since 1950 when Marlboros won the Allan Cup. The team has about 30 pros- pects working out, most of them teachers, lawyers, law students, accountants, doctors and dentists. They play their first exhibition game against Tulsa Oilers of the Central pro league Oct. 1.

Orr's Pass Gives Bruins Exhibition Tie With Leafs By JIM CRERAR Canadian Press Staff Writer Bobby Orr, highly - touted bonus baby, has played only one game with Boston Bruins' of the National Hockey League and already he's paying divi- dends, Orr slipped a pass to Pit Mar- tin mid-way through the third period Friday night in London, Ont., to give the Bruins a 1-1 tie with Toronto Maple Leafs in the first pre - season game of the year. The goal wiped out a lead Jim Pappin gave the Leafs in the first period before a sellout crowd of 5,496. Chicago Black Hawks, mean- while, received another setback when defenceman Elmer Vasko made it emphatic he doesn't in- tend to play this year. Vasko, a 220 - pounds veteran of 10 years in the NHL, joined Hawk goaltender Glenn Hall in the retired ranks. Vasko said simply he had enough after tak- ing his wife's advice and trying his hand at the team's practice sessions in Chicago for a couple of days. That was enough to convince him he was better off at his St. Ont., home, He added he had _ several plans for the future, "but none of them include hockey." Hall announced earlier this week from his farm near Ed- monton that he is quitting be- cause he's tired of hockey. _ Montreal Canadiens, defend- ing Stanley Cup champions, opened drills in Montreal and Hull, Que., Friday but most of the activity concerned manager Sam Pollock, who was busy signing players.
