PORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell Associate Sports Editor ? "SATURDAY NIGHT is "Hockey Night'? -- and has been. "for many years -- at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens -- and sat Oshawa -- in the Oshawa Arena, from 1938 until 1953 _ Sand at the Civic Auditorium, since it was opened -- because "Oshawa Generals have always favored "bath night" for "their home games. We have come to the point where we "are wondering whether or not it's time for a change, May "we hasten to point out, we are not. thinking in terms of the je 's coffers nor even of manager Bill Kurelo's Civic iuditorium gate receipts. Not at all -- we have a different ~-- we think the Oshawa Generals, long accepted the club that loved the Saturday night date for their stand, are now a victim of their own planning, a vic- Of tradition, if you like. But certainly, it would appear perhaps it's time for a change. aa) = bd " : --. = = om, me phen pee Geman tase # nlav at home. every Saturday it, except Christmas Eve, from October 8 to March il. «The only other team in the entire Junior 'A' league to play "home games on Saturday, is Montreal. They have several dn January and February -- but in every case, Montreal "plays at home on Saturday and again' on Sunday, Generals, ~ most instances have to play right back on Sunday -- but always away from home, involving a trip, adding to the pressure of back-to-back games. But that isn't all -- in many cases, Generals have to play on a Friday night away from "home -- then play back at home on Saturday. This com- "bination endangers the Generals' "top performance" on home ice for their Saturday games -- and they are expected "to win at home, if they are to set a good record. But also '-- they play away on Sunday and the normal pressure of "an away-from-home game is increased for the Generals -- 'because they are tired, from having played the night before. BACK-TO-BACK games wouldn't be quite such a dis- advantage, if Generals played the same team on Saturday "night that they had met on Friday night -- but this only 'happens once in the entire schedule, It also wouldn't be 'quite so bad, if the team they met on Sunday, was the game team they had played against on Saturday, but this rarely happens. In other words, due to the Oshawa tradi- 'tion of playing their home games on Saturday night, we find that our Generals, tired from having played the night be- fore, are usually meeting "a fresh team" on Saturday night 'and on Sunday, they are always playing a "fresh team" -- one that hasn't had to play on Saturday night. For teen-age 'athletes, this has to be a great strain on physical stamina, fas well as creating extra mental pressure. Last weekend, Generals played well in Niagara Falls, on Friday night, to win two points -- but they were obviously off form the next night and only tied Kitchener Rangers. We think that play- ing back-to-back games is the reason the Generals were "off form'? and certainly, the schedule creates the possibil- fty of our Generals being a tired team for many of their Sunday engagements. We think the facts speak for them- selves, probably this season's results of Sunday games will bear it out. It looks as if the time has come for the Generals make a change -- for best results, they should have as uch rest as possible. No other team, not even Montreal, the Junior 'A' circuit, has as many back-to-back dates "gs Oshawa Generals. They could prove back-breaking! LAST CHANCE! A couple of weeks ago, we ran a warning-type notice to various local softball team managers or coaches and we are repeating same, for the last time, now. On the sports desk are softball scorebooks, most of them only partially used, which should be picked up, if the manager or anybody else wants to have them for next sum- mer, or keep them for record purposes, etc. We have three "Bad Boy' books, plus scorebooks belonging to General- Auto Shippers Juveniles, Southmead Squirts, Scott's Chicken "Villa, Storie Park Squirts, GM Ladies' Office League, Qual- ity Fuels (Civil Service League) and Quality Fuels (UAW League), North Brock Texaco, Whitby Industrial League, Russell's Texaco, and Scugog Cleaner Juniors. This is the last warning -- come in and claim them -- or they're going into the wastepaper basket.

The "other Argos' are the senior amateur team from the Toronto suburb of East York. Reversing the trend of their rich relatives in the Eastern Football Conference, they win on the field and lose at the gate. The East York club, which plays Shearwater, N.S., Navy here Saturday afternoon in the Eastern Canada senior final, is seeking its third consecutive Canadian title. It will stretch the budget to 'Other' Argos Seeking Third Straight Title get to the national final Nov. 19 in Winnipeg against St. James Rams. "The last time we went West for a final," said general man- ager Sam Hooker Tuesday, "we all paid $20 out of our own pockets including players, coaches and directors." That was in 1964 when the Argos went to Winnipeg to win their first Canadian champion- ship. "We may have to do it again this year," Hooker added. EXPENSES nIGH Expenses will total about the breaking point if the Argos $12,500 for the season if the REGINA (CP)--Coach Eagle Keys of Saskatchewan Rough- riders doesn't expect Winnipeg Blue Bombers to try anything new Sunday in the first game of the best-of-three Western Football Conference final. "They have pretty good suc- cess with the stuff they nor- mally run," he said in an inter- view. "There isn't much point in changing." Blue Bombers reported no disabling injuries after their 16-8 triumph over Edmonton Eskimos in a sudden - death semi-final, so physical condi- tion isn't expected to be a de- cisive factor in the first game. "We're in good shape," Keys said of the Roughriders, regu- lar-season champions who em- barked on an 18-day layoff after the end of the regular season. "We'll be without centre Galen Wahlmeier, who had a knee operation,' said Keys. "We'll be all right there be- cause Ted Urness can do the job."" Urness, an all-star last season, normally gives way to Wahlmeier on kicks. Without the layoff, Saskat- chewan might have been ham- pered by injuries, Keys con- jeeded. Defensive halfback Larry Dumelie and guard Jack Abendschan shook off ailments after the regular season ended and speedy Dale West had time \to rest a cranky shoulder. | 'West will need an operation after the season," said Keys, Keyes Expects Bombers Will Show Normal Plays "but he'll go as long as he can. The rest had to help him." Argos get into the final. The team's share of gate receipts from home games, after rental and other expenses are de- ducted, will amount to about $700. But East York gets help in the form of a $2,500 annual grant from Toronto Argos, who finished last in the EFC this year, and can expect about $2,500 more from the Canadian Rugby Union to help pay ex- penses, Hooker said. In past years the Ontario government has also helped with a grant. Revenue from the sale of ad- vertising space in the program produces about $300 and a draw will raise another $800. Hooker said the rest, about $6,800, must come from dona- tions. The money from the Toronto Argos is in exchange for first call to East York players going into the EFC. The amateur club has produced seven play- ers who have seen action with the professional Argos in the Keys prof d great resp for Winnipeg quarterback Kenny Ploen, whose final-quar- ter magic eased the pressure in the semi-final. "We know he will throw the ball when he's in trouble and he will try to set up a balance between passing and running until he's in trouble," said Keys. "Some quarterbacks can be typed--you can predict mostly what they're doing. But that doesn't apply to Ploen." Saskatchewan blasted Winni- peg 38-14 Aug. 7 in the first meeting of the season between the two clubs but the next two tests were closer. On Sept. 11, the Roughriders squeezed out a 27-24 decision in Winnipeg and the clubs played an 11-11 tie in Regina Oct. 2 with second-string quarterbacks at the helm, Ploen was replaced by rookie Rich Badar and Ron Lancaster of Saskatchewan rested an in- jured ankle while Bruce Ben- nett and Mike Ringer, since re- leased, generated the offence. Badar has not been dressed for most recent Winnipeg games and Bennett has been free to concentrate on _ his chores as defensive safety since Lancaster returned. The game will begin at 4 p.m. EST and will be televised on the CBC national network. TORONTO (CP) -- College |football in Canada has set three lrecords this year -- in attend- ance, number of games played and gate receipts. Figures released by the Cana- dian Intercollegiate Athletic Union today show that 602,000 fans attended 152 university football games across the coun- try and paid $850,000 at the gate. | Bill Prentice, who runs the CIAU information office, says attendance at college games could surpass that of profes- sional football within six years. "With university enrolment in- creasing, fan appeal mounting and more and better games, the for Scugog and Ron Guscott got |total attendance at college foot-| ball is expected to reach 1,000,- 000 within three years and gate receipts climb to nearly $2,000,- 000," he said. Three games this weekend-- Queen's versus Toronto at Kingston, the Ottawa-Bishop's jgame in Ottawa and the St. Francis Xavier-St. Mary's game in Halifax -- are expected to draw heavily. |EXPECT CAPACITY |. "There are 11 teams playing lin the Maritimes and they aver- age 3,000 spectators a game. We expect the St. Francis St |Mary's game to draw a capa- city ecowd of 5,000." Thirty-eight teams played an average of eight games, four or Canadian Colleges Set Three Football Records five of them at home, across Canada this year, compared with 34 teams last year and 32 in 1964.

The only member of the East York team drawing a salary is head coach Tom Dublinski, the former Toronto Argos and De- troit Lions player, and he shares his pay with his as- sistant coaches. "Considering the time he spends with the club," said Hooker, "he's probably aver- aging less than $1 an hour." They won last Saturday's eastern semi final against Montreal North Bears 41-7. The CRU pays travel and liv- ing costs on playoff trips for $2 players, coaches and of- ficials. But 34 players have been showing up for practice all season and additional directors have worked hard to keep the team. solvent.

Hull, usually among the Na- tional Hockey League's leading goal scorers and a record-setter last season? with 54 goals and a total of 97 points, hasn't scored in Chicago's last three starts, but the Hawks have won two. Dennis Hull, Bobby's brother, was the big gun last Sunday as he scored one goal and as- sisted on two others as the Hawks downed Beston Rruins 4-2. Ken nmodge s iia iG Set the pace came Tuesday night as he scored one goal and assisted on another to lead Chicago to a 3-1 victory over New York Rangers in the only scheduled NHL game.. Wally Boyer, starting his sec- ond season in the NHL and his first with the Hawks, and Stan Mikita were the other Chicago marksmen, Rod Gilbert scored for New York. HODGE 'SCORES NO. 2 Hodge scored his second goal of the season in the second pe- riod to give Chicago a 2-0 lead in the game. He then helped put the game out of New York's reach when he set up Mikita with a perfect pass from be- hind the New York net. KEN HODGE «+» big goal The Hawks fired 25 shots at New York's Cesare Maniago. Glenn Hall handled 27 Ranger shots in his second game since coming out of an announced retirement, The victory moved Chicago three points ahead of idle Mont- real Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs in the NHL. stand- ings. The loss was New York's fifth in nine outings 'this season and left them in fifth place, one point behind fourth-place De- troit Red Wings. St. Catharines Black Hawks and Oshawa Generals are one- two in the Ontario Hockey As- sociation Junior "A" League but neither has a player among the league's top 14 point scorers, Peterborough Petes' John Vanderburg continues to hold 'the individual point scoring leadership with 21, two more than Fred Speck of Hamilton. Vanderburg has scored seven goals and assisted on 14 others while Speck has eight goals and nine assists. Derek Sanderson of Niagara Falls Flyers is in third place with 18 points, one more than Peterborough's Mickey Redmond. Top goal-scorer in the nine team circuit is Kitchener Ran- gers' Jack McCreary. He has 11 goals. Generals' top point-getter is Bill White, who has 11 points on five goals and six assists.

Although the Canadiens are tied in second place with Tor- onto and are only three points behind the league - leading Hawks, Blake says his club hasn't played a good game this season, "This had to come," Blake said of his team's 6-0 loss to Detroit Sunday night.

Although the Leafs have won only two of their eight starts, five tied games have helped them stay in contention for the lead.
