10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, Mey 8, 1967 TARGET--Number 5! Their -fifth-straight Canadian Junior Lacrosse "Minto Cup" cham- -pionship -- that's the target "Oshawa Green Gaels have set for themselves and they draw the first bow on that target tonight at Civic Auditorium, when Toronto Township comes here, for the opening "game of the Ontario Lacrosse Association's 1967 Junior 'A' "schedule. Coach Jim Bishop, the most successful mentor in any Canadian amateur sport in the past four years, would like nothing better than to re- tain The Minto Cup for the fifth term. We feel that he has a record now that will prob- ably never be eclipsed, al- though until recent years, the consistency of lacrosse com- petition, across the Dominion, has not been nearly as consis- tent nor sustained as in Junior hockey or Junior football -- the only three team sports that are annually contested at the Canadian championship level. WHEN GREEN GAELS walked off the floor in New Westminster last September, with their record - making, fourth - straight trophy tri- umph -- Western Canada la- crosse fans were not only im- pressed with their skill but awed also-by their potential-- for Green Gatis were due to lose only one player, via the age - limitation rule, namely Neil Armstrong. It has- n't quite worked out that way, but coach Bishop's posi- tion is far from untenable. Two or three other players, due to pressure of school work, winter hockey activities and travelling required for prac- tices and games, or for a com- bination of these reasons, have elected to pass up this sum- mer's activity with Green Gaels. Danny Sandford, Fred- die Greenwood and Wayne Thompson, a Huntsville boy, are among this group. However, almost all the ton stars are on hand, giving the Green Gaels once again the nucleus for another title con- tender. TORONTO TOWNSHIP, Once again regarded as the team "'most. likely to upset Oshawa'? -- even though both Long Branch and Mimico are highly favored in some circles -- will open the season's schedule, just as they did last year and Green Gaels go right back at Toronto Township, to- morrow night in Port Credit. Winning at home is "'a must" for any team and for the Green Gaels, it's also a mat- ter of prestige and pride, Get- ting "the jump" on the rest of the field, with two quick vic- tories over one of the top- rated clubs, is the best pos- sible way to put all other clubs on the defensive, faced with the job of battling each other -- while still trying to overtake the leaders. That's why Green Gaels will be using their great condition and ex- Perience to full advantage to- night, in an all-out bid to get that big jump, with a win for their home fans and another one in Port Credit, on Tues- day. All "home games" for the Green Gaels start at 8:30 p.m. MINOR SOFTBALL activity will start this week, with the Oshawa Minor Softball Asso- ciation holding its first organ- ization meeting of the season, SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell Associate Sports Editor on Wednesday evening, at Simcoe Hall Settlement House, Street South. President Fred Kitchen has called the meet- ing for 7:30 o'clock and all Neighborhood Parks intending to enter a boys' softball team in this year's Kiwanis Bantam League, should make certain they have a representative on hand. The Oshawa Minor Association also conducts the Midget Boys' Softball League and teams wishing to contest either City Championship honors or OASA playoff rights --or both, are also ex- pected to be back with another strong team and word is that there will be at least one other club challenging them for the local laurels. SCHEDULE ACTION in the Leaside Junior Baseball League was to have got under- way tonight, here at Kinsmen Civic Memorial Stadium, with East York Kinsmen' opening the season against Oshawa Legionnaires. However, the steady rain of Sunday after- noon and evening was more than enough to make the Kins- men Stadium diamond unplay- able, especially at this time of the year. Similarly, the various minor baseball and softball workouts scheduled for this evening, at outdoor diamonds elsewhere, no doubt face the jeopardy of 'wet grounds." CAPSULE SPORTS: 'Proud Clarion,' one of "the long shots" (he went at 3-to-1) won the 93rd '"'Run For the Roses" at Churchill Downs on Saturday afternoon. It was the first win in a stakes race for Proud Clarion and Bobby Ussery, with his first Ken- tucky Derby win, was a jubi- lant jockey. Almost as big an upset was the second-place finish of '"Barb's Delight," who in spite of winning The Derby Trial on Tuesday, was well down in the list of public choices . .. TORONTO MAR- LIES opened the 1967 Me- morial Cup finals in Fort William on Sunday afternoon with a 6-3 victory over Port Arthur Marrs, with Doug Acomb and Terry Caffery each scoring a couple. The Dukes trailed 2-0 early in the first period and 3-2 until the pen ee OE CO Winners 'of the Oshawa Badminton Club's closing tournament were honored at the closing banquet, with club president Peter Stephenson presenting the trophies. From left to right, back row, are Lloyd Lafoy, Jean Lafoy, Sandra Shep- hard and Gary Lafoy. In front are Stephenson and YWCA representative Carol stings Young. Sandra Shephard was a dual trophy winner, sharing in the mixed doubles and women's doubles. Lloyd and Gary Lafoy teamed up to win the OSHAWA YWCA BADMINTON CLUB ENDS SEASON men's doubles while Jean Lafoy was women's doubles co-champ. More than 60 members participated in club activities during the past season. Employing a crisp - passing, fast - breaking attack, Oshawa Lasco Steelers, this city's brand new entry in the Senior 'B' division of the Ontario Lacrosse Association, took a well-earned 15-7 victory over Brantford War- riors, in their exhibition game, here at Civic Auditorium, on Sunday afternoon. Oshawa's accurate passing and superior speed were the decid- ing factors, in a game which 17:50 mark of the second stanza, then they took charge; scoring three unanswered goals in the final frame as Marrs wilted...

Oshawa took the lead with the first two goals of the game, Ian Barry getting the first one on a pass from Colin Oke and then Gerry Davis topped off a three - way play a half-min- ute later, to make it 2-0. Oshawa's first penalty, to Oke, gave Brantford their chance was cleanly played, the home- sters drawing seven of the 11 penalties meeted out, more than half of these coming in the for the odd - man and their first goal, Sammy Crogan get- ting the job done, with help from a couple of mates. Oshawa"s Senior 'B' Squad Whips Brantford Warriors The homesters outscored the visiting Warriors in every per- iod, four-to-two in each of the first and third frames and by margin in the wide - open sec- ond stanza. Sammy Crogan scored four of Brantford's seven goals with Vic Generoux, Ross Powers and Wayne Smith sharing the other three tallies. Powless, father of Oshawa Green Gaels' star, Gay- lord, also earned three assists with his fine passing. Pete Pow- eg picked up a pair of points oe aaa Drummondville Onslaught By GARY McCARTHY DRUMMOND VILLE, Que. (CP) -- Coach Tony Schneider said Sunday night his Calgary Spurs never recovered after Drummondville Eagles ex- ploded for three goals in 37 sec- onds early in the game en route to an 8-4 victory. The Eagles' win moved them into a 3-0 lead in the best-of- seven Allan Cup final for Can- ada's senior hockey crown. "We had a couple of chances at the start of the game but all of a sudden they got a goal, then another and then another and we were beaten." Jean Therrien scored for the riod, Rolland Leclerc got the first of his two goals at 3:26 lost their sixth - straight to Detroit yesterday. and Roger Picard scored the first of his two at 3:47. Eagles at 3:10 of the first pe-. Too Much For Calgary Andre Lagueux also scored two goals for the winners and Michel Lapalme accounted for the other goal. Marty Desma- rais, Bob Peers, John Ivanitz and Jim Brown scored for the Spurs. The Eagles, playoff cham- pions of the Provincial Senior Hockey League, outplayed the Spurs in every department after their early three-goal outburst and blasted a total of 46 shots at the Calgary net, including 21 in the first period. Bobby Taylor started in nets for the Spurs but was replaced by Dave Butts after Lapalme);,. had given the Eagles a 5-4 lead late in the first period. Claude Cyr stopped 26 of the 30 shots the Spurs got at him. Roland Bolduc, Eagles gen-|(j eral manager, said after the game that his club played up Brooklin Redmen Beat Mimico Mountaineers By CLIFF GORDON BROOKLIN In a_ wide- open, almost. checking-free ex- hibition lacrosse game, at the Brooklin Arena Saturday night, Brooklin Redmen Seniors down- ed the Mimico Mountaineers Juniors 16-13. The win was the second of the pre-season schedule for the Redmen. They hold wins over the powerful Oshawa Green Gaels and the Mimico team who were runners up for the league honors in Junior 'A' competition last year. Redmen also lost one to the Gales. DAVIS SETS PACE Terry Davis was the big snip- er for the Redmen, as he trig- gered no less than seven goals and set up two more. Grant Heffernan had a pair of mark- @rs and had a helping hand on more. Captain Bob Hanna and Don Craggs each had a pair of ls and three assists for a ive-point evening. Elmer Tran, Jerry Burrows and Ronnie Moore added single- tons for Brooklin. Paul Parnell, Chas. Hender- son, Joe Tompson and John Dale each scored a pair for the Mountaineers. Mark Bergin, Bob Mittler, Kevin Ellis, Ian Blanche and Bill Foote each managed to Score singles, against Brook- lin's number one goalie, Bob McCready. ' SIX PLAYERS MISSING Redmen were forced to go with two lines, as they had six players out of the line-up for this contest. Dave Houston is at Cornell University; Ken Thompson and Tom Conlin were at a wedding; Gary Drys- dale was in Sudbury; Dave Lough is still at school and Paul Tran is out with a chipped bone, in his ankle. Brooklin built up a 4-1 lead in the first period, as youthful goalie Al Duke appeared a little jittery. He soon steadied away and played a tremendous game for the losers. Each team scored five in the second period and seven times in the final period. In the final did not appear too sharp. John Dale, who scored two goals for Mimico is expected to line up with Brooklin for a workout on Tuesday night. He is over age for Junior but played in the Saturday game with his old teammmates. Manager-Coach Fred Whalley was pleased with the outcome and with the speed at which the game was played and also the fact tha tthere was no rough stuff. Whalley was also pleased with the fact that with 16 goals, Brooklin picked up 19 assists, proof that the fellows are tossing the ball around, frame it was McCready who|ed Brooklin, with only two lines against the three of the Mimi- co team, ran very well with their younger opponents. ORANGEVILLE NEXT Next action for the Redmen and the final pre-season game, will be this Saturday night, when they tangle with Orange- ville Dufferins, at the Brooklin Arena, with game time slated for 8.30 p.m. Manager Whalley feels that Orangeville could be the pick of the Senior "B" teams this jseason, since with the folding of Streetsville, they have pick- to its potential.

Bodnar also was impressed with Adams, who stopped 30 shots to 27 for Bob Whidden in the Marlboros nets. "He stands up well," said the Toronto head man. Reinforcements permitted the western champion under Cana- dian Amateur Hockey Associa- tion equalization regulations were prominent for Port Arthur, in the Canadian final for the first time in 19 years, Kelner, from Geraldton Gold Miners of the Northwestern On- tario League, opened scoring at 1:05 of the first period.

The clubs were tied 2-2 after the first period and 3-3 after the second before 5,300 fans in the 4,600-seat Fort William Gardens. Terry Caffery also picked up two goals for Toronto, While Gerry Meehan and Tom Martin got one each. Marrs marksmen were Chuck Kilner, Tony Busniuk and Ray Adduono. Cava wasn't pleased with his big line of Captain Adduono, Tim McCormack and Kelner, which scored 13 goals in the last three games of the Western Can- ada final against New Westmins- ter Royals. ' "It certainly wasn't their us- ual game and I can't say much after that." But he praised goal- tender Johnny Adams, defence- The FORT WILLIAM (CP) -- "'It looks like a long, tough series," said coach Albert Cava Sunday after his Port Arthur Marrs failed to answer three third- period goals and lost 6-3 to Tor- onto Marlboros in the first game of the Memorial Cup final. "They're a good club and play their positions well," Cava said, "but I think we can bounce back." Second game in the best-of- seven Canadian junior hockey championship series will be played here Tuesday night. Toronto coach Gus Bodnar, former National Hockey League stalwart' with Toronto Maple Leafs, Chicago Black Hawks and Boston Bruins, was pleased with the unit of Doug Acomb, Frank Hamill and Rick Byers. He described the trio as "the kid line." Acomb scored two - goals, starting Marlboros on the come- JUNIOR LACROSSE OPENS TONIGHT Oshawa Green Gaels will open their Ontario Lacrosse Association Junior "A" season tonight at Oshawa Civic Audi- torium. Game time for the clash between the defending Cana- dian junior champion Gaels and Toronto Township is 8:30 The 80-piece senior band from McLaughlin Collegiate, under the direction of Michael Crosbie, will be in attendance to play before the game, start- ing at 7:30 p.m. General manager and coach of the Green Gaels is Jim Bishop while Frank Wilbur is assistant general manager. Co-managers are Ross Drew and Harold Hudson. SHARE THE SCORING Oshawa Lasco Steelers shar- ed the scoring honors over a wide field but the fact there were only 9 assists on 15 goals and three of the goals were on three - way passing plays, is mute evidence that most of their scoring success was on a one-pass basis with no fewer than five of the counters com- ing on strictly solo efforts. Ian Barry, Colin Oke, Gerry Davie, Sonny Polawzuk and Bill Davenport each notched a pair| for the homesters while Steelers' other five goals were scored by Jim Hinkson, Neil Armstrong, Carlos Felix, Gord Platt ahd Gerry Davis.
