@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, June 9, 1967 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell Associate Sports Editor GREEN GAELS, following a brief respite for exams, clamber back into action to- .. morrow night and for the gut- ted-stick fans of the area, the .Saturday sports menu_ reads like yesteryear--with Bramp- ton Excelsiors visiting the Brooklin Redmen tomorrow night for an OLA Senior 'A' fixture, while Green Gaels visit Brampton for their schedule action. The senior 'tilt in Brooklin Arena tomor- row night is certain to at- , tract a banner crowd. A large contingent of Oshawa fans 4s following the fortunes of the Redmen this season and 'their regular Saturday night attendance, together with a large following from Whitby, as well as the regular home- town supporters, is giving Brooklin king-size crowds at each home game. HERE, IN OSHAWA, the Green Gaels' rooters' are looking forward to the big one here on Monday night, » when the Toronto Township : PCO's visit Civic Auditorium * again. They opened the sea- * gon's schedule here and gave the customers the closest ac- , tion we've seen at home. It * was the Toronto Township } team that handed Green " Gaels the only loss they have | suffered so far, in the sched- * ule. Since that clash, the . Geels have rolled merrily Feed the victory path and ave seven wins and only one defeat. Toronto Township Juniors are tied with the Osh- * awa club in points -- having « also won seven games, but * they have lost a couple, so » while they are tied with * Green Gaels in total points, the Oshawa club has an edge --they have a game in hand. Huntsville chalked up a win on their home floor, to ac- count for Toronto Township's second defeat. The PCO's (Port Credit Orangemen) would like nothing better than te knock off the Green Gaels here on Monday night OHA JUNIOR 'A' Council members (team representa- tives) will meet here in Osh- awa on Monday, a luncheon session at Oshawa Golf Club, followed by a meeting to draft their 1967-68 season's sched- "le. It will mark the return to the "Council table" of Gen- erals' Matt Leyden and his first team-up session with coach "Tke" Hildebrand. Now if "Hap" Emms comes here, to represent his Niagara Falls Flyers, it'll be something like old times. We understand that Oshawa Generals will make an effort to get away from so many of those Friday-Satur- day or Saturday - Sunday back-to-back playing dates. One suggestion offered is that Oshawa play some of their "hone games' on Sundays -- especially if they are booked to play away-from-home on Friday_night. Sunday evening games are popular in St. Catharines and it just might be' that they would be a solid attraction here at Civic Audi- torium. 0 CAPSULE SPORTS -- Osh- awa City and District Softball Association cleared up their draw this week. Bob Shute, of 160 Highland Avenue, with ticket 2174, was the top win- ner, with second and third prizes going to Harry Sim- mons 809 King west (ticket 193) and J. H. Spratt, 300 Gibbons street (ticket 316) . .. LEGION MIDGET base- ball fans have a special at- traction for Sunday after- noon, at Kinsmen Stadium, when the Oshawa 'A' Majors team clashes with the 'A' Midgets, in an Eastern On- tario league fixture. Cobourg and Oshawa Legion Tykes also play on Sunday, at 'Alex- andra Park ... OSHAWA TENNIS CLUB has 30 entries already for their big All- Ontario Intermediate Men's Singles Championship tourna- ment, at the local courts, this Saturday and Sunday. Several Oshawa netters will contest the title, won last year by Howie Simpson, of the Ot- tawa Rideau Club. Howie is not defending his crown, so it's a wide-open event. Play starts tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, weather permit- ting, and the committee has arranged for a dance and so- cial session for Saturday evening. ..

TORONTO (CP) -- George| Knudson, leading money winner among Canada's touring profes- sional golfers, is the only Ca- nadian exempt from qualifying for the $200,000 World Open golf championship that starts Sept. 1 at nearby Woodbridge. The nine other Canadian pros and one amateur placings al- lotted to Canada by the United States Professional Golfers As- sociation must be won through competition. Knudson was among the top 50 money winners on the PGA ify automatically for the Open and its $35,000 first - place prize. The Toronto golfer was 4ist. Canadian golfers don't have to win any of the eight open tournaments scheduled across Canada prior to the World Open, nor the Canadian Ama- teur scheduled for Victoria Aug. 14-19. The top Canadian in each will qualify. Should one player qualify in McCready's Eye Injury Puts Him Out Of Action By CLIFF GORDON BROOKLIN -- Brooklin Red- men will be going all out Satur- day night to keep their winning record intact and _ increase their league lead as they play host to Brampton Excelsiors at Brooklin Arena. Redmen and Excelsiors have met twice to date, with Brook- lin claiming one-goal victories on both occasions. Excelsiors have been smarting from these two close ones, and word has it out of the Rosetown that they feel they have the plays pat- terned to stop Fred Whalley and his rampant Redmen. Meanwhile, back at the Brook- lin camp, Whalley has troubles of his own. Elmer Tran, the pint - sized giant killer of a centreman, was injured at work anl will be sidelined for at least the weekend. Whalley hopes to have him back in ac- tion for the game in Peter- borough next Thursday night. The other injury is a bad one, and to Bob McCready the num- ber one goalie of the Redmen. McCready was hit in the eye midway through the second per- iod of Wednesday night's game in Toronto. He was taken to hospital and later released to go home and stay in bed for five days. He was to see an eye specialist in St, Catharines to- day. The injury appears to be a blood clot behind the eye. It is expected he will be sidelined for at least two weeks. Gary Drysdale will get the job of guarding the pipes in Satur- day night's game. Drysdale is no stranger to Brooklin fans, having played here last year. He also is no stranger to the Branpton crew, since he is a native of Brampton. Drysdale took over for the injured McCready on Wednes- day night and played a tremen- dous game. To quote manager Whalley, he was "'fantastic." Whalley also pointed out that fellows like John Dale and Paul Tran got their first markers of the season and should start to ner or runner-up, a Canadian would automatically qualify. But should two U.S. golfers meet in the final, the Canadian Amateur's spot in the World Open would go to the Canadian with the lowest round.

Four times Armstrong pulled Steel- ers into a tie but each time, Dufferins forged ahead. Orangeville marksmen were Steelers played relatively well in the second period, but their slow start, and sub-standard ef- forts in the third period ac- counted for the loss. The two teams split scoring in the final period at three goals each, but the outstanding play of Campbell, stopping several breakaways, kept Orangeville from increasing its lead. Play in the first two periods was rough, and tempers flared in the third when Oshawa's Jim Hinkson and Orange ville's Perry Benham squared off, Walt Mitchell, Perry Benh and Jim Hillhouse, each with two goals, John Cornelils, Hugh Brackem, Dave Foster and George Clay. Oshawa scorers, other than Armstrong, were Charlie Lud- low, Gerry Burrows and Al Abbott. Steelers trailed 3-2 at the end of the first period, but two goals by Armstrong early in the sec- ond counter - balanced an Orangeville goal to make the score 4-4 before the quarter mark of the period. Dufferins were in front 7-5 at the end of the second periud only to have Armstrong notch a pair of goals to tie the score 7-7 in the third period. Right after this, however, Steelers ran out of steam and Dufferins won going away. Goalkeeper Norm Young of Orangeville demonstrated his ability throughout the game, especially once in the first per- iod when Steelers had a man advantage and did everything but put the ball past Young. Netminder Matt Campbell/"a the other end of the box, played equally as well, stopping key Orangeville breakaways, but he didn't get anything like the pro- tection Young received. Connaught Wins In Squirt Softball Connaught Park Squirts de- feated Zion Park 20-16 in Neigh- borhood Association softball play Thursday night. Connaught scored four runs in each of the first three innings, then three, one and four runs in the next three successive inn- ings to come up with the win- |ning total. Zion runs came in packages of six in the first inning, two in the second, seven in the third and one in the final. SOCCER POSTPONED MONTREAL (CP)--The fifth, game of the Expo 67 interna- tional soccer tournament be- tween England and the first Vienna Club of Austria, sched- uled for Wednesday night, was postponed because of a rain- soaked field. Officials of the Expo Autostade, where the tournament is being held, said the game will be played Fri- day. roll now. Sandy Doberstein, while not) figuring in the goal - scoring, played well for Brooklin. Whalley said, however, it was the 'old veterans like Hanna, | Crawford, Davis, Conlin and) Craggs that really help keep| Brooklin in the game. These same fellows would like | to make it three in a row over) Brampton here tomorrow night. | Jim s Higgs Ster & Ceptein Lo fencemen of e Gaels.
