"THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, May 25, 1967 "SPORTS BEAT . By Eric Wesslby Times Sports Editor OSHAWA GENERALS, through scout Gary Yqung, have acquired the services of ia pair of highly rated north- fern hockey players. One, uke Bedard, is rated by some as the best looking 'young defenceman to come 'out of Timmins since Allan Stanley performed _ there. Only 16, Bedard stands five foot, 11, and weighs 180 'pounds, '"'He might need some peasoning in junior 'B'," "Young says, "but he's terrific 'in intercepting plays at the 'blueline and throws an accur- 'ate pass. His big asset, 'though, is that he's tough." THE SECOND player who has signified his intentions of coming to Generals' camp is 16-year-old Mickey Jurynec, a deft winger who hails from Chapleau. Last season, al- though still of midget age, 'he led the northern junior ""B" circuit in scoring, firing 44 goals. He packs 175 pounds 'on his five foot, 10 frame. "Young was quite taken with this youngster, watching him 'perform in three games. He awas highly recommended by 'Angus Burns of Timmins, one of the Boston Bruins' north- ern scouts. ' WELL, NOW we have some- thing else to cry about in Sport. For years, a_ great amount of soul searching has 'gone on in Canada when this country's hockey representa- 'tives tasted defeat on the ice cushions of Europe. After all, Wasn't-Canada the birthplace eof hockey? And didn't Canada 'have more hockey: players 'than any other country? Of 'course, there was always the 'excuse that we never sent our 'best teams to these tourna- «ments, just the second string- 'ers. The best stayed in Can- ada, or moved to the United 'States, to play professionally. NOW, MUR lacrosse image 'will suffer, thanks to the up- starts from the United States 'and Australia. Lacrosse is 'definitely a Canadian game, 'although the field game has deen virtually unknown in 'this country since the 1930s. Jim Bishop, general manager 'and coach of the Oshawa Green Gaels, warned people 'what to expect more than a month ago, however. He had wwatched the Americans in field lacrosse games and cor- ectly reasoned that Canada eouldn't hope to throw a team 'together and beat them. Our players are used to playing with the smaller sticks and in a smaller confine. Learning new rules on such short notice is also quite a handicap. OF COURSE, as a country we shouldn't be disappointed when another country adopts one of our sports and then beats us at it. We should be proud that Canada can come up with something that ap- peals to other countries, It's nice to win, but the main pur- pose of any sport is to com- pete. Winning is foremost in any athlete's mind, but most are satisfied if they've given their best for the good of the team, win or lose, Maybe when the next field lacrosse tournament is played, Canada will do better. At least the players next time will know they have their work cut out for them. GREEN GAELS are on the right track once again in the junior lacrosse wars. They switch from their usual script somewhat this week to have a Thursday night home game, Opposition tonight will be sup- plied by Toronto Marlboros, last year's Etobicoke Indians club. FRED WHALLEY has Brooklin Redmen off on the right foot in the senior cir- cuit, and Saturday night's home opener proved a real dandy for the fans. They'll all be back for Saturday's clash with Toronto Maple Leafs. Redmen and Leafs had a good game in Toronto a week ago Wednesday, one that received extra attention because of television cover- age. The more people to be- come exposed to the game, the greater fan support will be. Like hockey, however, television doesn't begin to do justice to lacrosse, Cameras can't follow everyone so view- ers will start wondering just what the other players on the floor are doing, how they get into position for passes. ALTHOUGH UNBEATEN in two starts, Whalley is still not happy with the Redmen. "'We can play better than last Saturday," he said. Whalley hopes to have Don Lough in the lineup for Saturday, and plans talks with Ken Craw- ford and Grant Heffernan. "Toronto wants Crawford and Peterborough would like Hef- fernan," Whalley said, "but I want them both. Neither team could offer us anything resembling them. Toronto of- fered a rookie, but he's un- tried and Crawford has ex- perience." Brooklin' Arena has a new paint job and new lighting, something which should help the sport," ANOTHER HOLE-in-one re- ported, this time at the Erinli Golf Club at Bowmanville, Jack Vodden was the lucky golfer this time, acing the 120- yard 13th with a five-iron. Witness was his partner, J. E. "Ben"' Webster.
