8 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, April 25, 1967 By Eric Wesslby Times Sports Editor A RECENT trip to the Mari- times and a long distance telephone call paid dividends "for Oshawa Generals as the --club announced today that = that centre Peter Nevin will «return to the club next fall. Nevin, a promising forward, quit the club last December ~ to return to his home in New Brunswick. His loss to the club was a big blow, with the team struggling to catch a playoff spot. Gary Young, as- » sistant chief scout of the Bos- ton Bruins, recently met with Nevin, and club vice-president Charles Mcliveen followed up with a telephone call. Both were assured that he would return to camp in September. WHILE THE business of finding players is going on, the big question as far as »Most fans are concerned is, "Who will coach the Generals next winter?" There's plenty of names being bandied about, but they are only guesses at the present time. You may hear that so and so has the job, but don't bet any money on it. Weston Adams of Bos- ton, main stockholder in the club, will probably have a Breat deal to say as to who will coach the team, (unless he sells his shares) and to- "morrow he'll be in Oshawa -.for a meeting with the local members of the executive. GENERALS SHOULD be a contending club next season, with several talented young- sters returning to the lineup. Players such as Ron Dus- siaume, Fred O'Donnell and Brian Morenz are all /looking forward to the opening of "training camp, even though they have only been idle for a little more than a month. Young still has quite a few players to contact about com- ing to camp in September, and the list includes some highly promising players. SWINGING OVER to some- thing a little more seasonable, fans were pleased with the entertainment provided Sun- day as Oshawa Green Gaels and Brooklin Redmen met at Civic Auditorium in an ex- hibition lacrosse game. The senior Redmen provided Gaels with something they probably won't get too much of this summer, competition. It's still too early, however, to concede the Gaels a runaway. Junior sport is always unpredictable and who knows, maybe two or three clubs will come up with good clubs this season. Coach Jim Bishop expects Toronto you can't overlook Long Branch, Hastings and Mimico when you start rating the teams. BROOKLIN DISPLAYED a good senior club, one with just enough muscle to go with speed up front. Manager-coach Fred Whalley should have the best conditioned team in the league and this will mean a lot when the hot weather sets in. Redmen are certainly well in front of Toronto in condi- tioning. And they'll be even tougher with Tom Conlin in the lineup. should assure a large turnout for Saturday's return game in Brooklin. HERE WE go again. For several years, men like Jim Bishop, Fred Whalley and Ivan Davie have worked to bring lacrosse forward as a major Canadian sport but in one action, the current On- tario Lacrosse Association has wrecked a lot of their work. By reducing Red Bonar's sus- pension from one year to six months for pulling his club from the flor, the OLA, in effect, has told all clubs to forget about what the book says. Try anything, even if the book says it's wrong. If you're on the right side of the fence, the executive will look the other way. THE WEATHER was any- thing but helpful to ball teams during the weekend, but de- spite the fall-like atmosphere more than one team worked out at Alexandra Park Sun- day. The workouts weren't too long, of course, but it's heartening for the coaches and managers to see good turn- outs on such days. The Lea- side Junior Baseball League season opens May 8, with Osh- awa Legionnaires meeting Toronto High Park at Kins- men Stadium that evening. | CANADIAN LEGION Minor Baseball League president Ted McComb says that more coaches and helpers are needed to help make a_ suc- cess of the program this year. Coaches are still needed for tyke, pee wee and bantam teams. The league has ex- paned to six teams in tyke, six in pee wee, with two midget clubs organized. If you're in- terested, or know anyone who'd like to help out with a team, call Ted McComb, 723- 9516 or Jim Lutton, 725-4888. League play ends just before General Motors' holidays, with playoffs starting midway Sunday's game - Tops in the 1,000 lap stock car race at the Osh- awa Raceway recently were the two-man teams of, left to right, upper and low- er, Les Sweet and John Maracle, first; Wayne Les- ter and Bob Waters, sec- ond; Ron Harnden and Bruce Jones, third; Ex- treme lower right is con- course winner Nick Reid. ok a 1,000 LAP STOCK CAR RACE WINNERS Maracle won the fastest qualifying trophy in~ the 44-hour event. (Oshawa Times Photo) When they get around to dis- cussing boxing at the Centen- nial Sports Celebrities Dinner at Oshawa Civic Auditorium, May 16, they'll have a man on hand who knows the game from two angles. Ruby Goldstein, at one time a promising lightweight but more famed for his role as the third man in the ring, will represent the sport. Born in New York, Goldstein's career as a boxer hit its zenith when he went against a scrap- per named Ace Hudkins in 1927. He knocked Hudkins down in the first round of their six round battle. "Maybe, if I had been smart, I could have taken a decision over him" he recalls. "But I had to knock him out, I thought. hit him with everything I had but he was tough and I couldn't stop him and then he nailed me in the fourth round Famed Ring Referee Sports Dinner Guest DICK SHATTO e « » former Argo Minor Soccer Enjoying Boom Oshawa's minor soccer pro- have been adopted by the soc- cer coaches of the various Neighborhood Parks represent- ed, ready for the 1967 season.

Leafs Dangerous ? Ask Goalkeepers By AL McNEIL TORONTO (CP) -- Johnny Bower and Terry Sawchuk, the pair of veteran goalies for Tor- onto Maple Leafs, must wonder today if their team-mates have a personal vendetta against them. The Leafs are tied at one ' Igame each with Montreal Cana- diens in the best-of-seven Stan- ley Cup final. The third game is scheduled for 8 p.m. EST tonight and will be carried in its entirety on the CBC national television network. Bower and Sawchuk could not be faulted if they borrowed a line from fellow goalie Lorne (Gump) Worsley of the Cana- diens to describe the hazards that go with their position. A few years back Worsley was employed as New York Rangers netminder and had the misfortune to have a porous de- fence deployed in front of him. GUMP'S A WIT Worsley, when asked which team in the National Hockey League gave him the most trou- ble promptly replied: "Ran- gers." Bower and Sawchuk must feel the same way. After their 3-0 shutout over Montreal Saturday, in a game from which Bower emerged as the dominating figure, the Leafs were summoned for a routine practice Sunday. However, Eddie Shack, who hasn't had much ice time lately, slashed Sawchuk across an al- ready bandaged left wrist in an effort to shake the puck from the goaltender's grasp. Monday, Bower stopped a 10- foot high flip shot from Frank Mahovlich's stick with his chin --and left the ice with blood gushing from the wound. Both Bower and Sawchuk have suffered several injuries in workouts during the season. Bower split a finger on his stick hand in the final practice before} the Leafs started their semi- round against Chicago Black Hawks. Toronto won the best-of-seven series in six games with Sawchuk in goal. Bower's latest injury occurred near the end of Monday's work- out, after he had removed the mask he dons for practice ses \sions. | Punch Imlach, Toronto's gen- eral - manager - ported he would fine any player firing high in practice $25.

RATLIFF DALLAS (AP)--Bert Yancey had an important decision to make at the 14th hole of the 6,777-yard Oak Cliff Country 'Club course. : He was among the trees, with a downhill lie and he had to decide if he wanted to play safe and pitch out onto the fairway or shoot through an eight-foot opening. | "I thought I was behind and |... I had to make a birdie or llose the tournament," said the young man from Philadelphia, "so I went for it--I shot through the trees, only touching a few leaves." Yancey's birdie--with a 20- foot putt--put him in the lead. He swung down the stretch to a one-over-par 71, 274 for 72 holes and $20,000 as champion of the $100,000 Greater Dallas Open. Yancey's Gamble Pays Off With Dallas Open Victory He finished a stroke ahead of Roberto de Vincenzo, the 1966 Dallas 'Open champion who made a gallant bid for a repeat with a two-under-par 68, and Kermit Zarley, who also could manage only a 71 on the final round, They wound up with 275 and won $9,750 apiece. Yancey, who shines with the putter, had 30 in his tour of the sun-baked course Monday. His putting was the strong arm he had to lean on in the final round. It got him into trouble but his putting pulled him through. Yancey had difficulty on 16 where he was almost out of bounds with his tee shot, then landed in a bunker. He: managed to two-putt from 40 feet for a bogey and it still kept him ahead although Doug Sanders was moving within a stroke, of him at the time and Goalby still was within a stroke, SYDNEY (Reuters) --Aus- tralia's top athletes are running up mountains in preparation for the Olympic Games scheduled in Mexico City in October, 1968. Training at altitudes of more than 7,000 feet in the Snowy Mountains of southern New South Wales would ensure gold medals for the Australians and prevent them from running "like . zombies," says coach Percy Cerutty. | The possible effects of Mexico \City's 7,000-foot altitude have worried sporting officials all over the world. lteur Athletics Association re- cently held its seventh training camp in the Snowy Mountains.
