10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, June 22, 1967 Canadian Clubs Grab Some Good Imports By BRUCE LEVETT Canadian Press Sports Editor The bird-dogs and talent scouts of Canadian football this year have reaped the richest harvest of import tal- ent in history and there may ye more to come. Only one player from the United States draft lists ended up on a Canadian Football League roster last year; the total is close to 14 so far this year. How did it happen? Top football men agree it's mainly a reaction to last winter's merger of the National and American leagues which put an end to $500,000 signing bonuses and out-of-sight sal- aries. By Canadian standards, the good U.S. rookies aren't con ing cheaply--one picked up $13,000 plus a $3,000 signing bonus. And most of them are firm believers in the incentive clause. HAVE BONUS CLAUSES There are contract clauses calling for bonuses for the number of passes caught or knocked down depending on the circumstances; for mak- ing the all-star teams and for various other recognition- bringing feats. One tiger wants to be paid off on the number of tackles he makes. Canadian coaches feel that some of the good ones will use their stay in Canada to build a reputation to carry them into good football jobs back in the U.S. Local Netters Enjoy Success Oshawa Tennis Club members grabbed a major portion of the limelight, competing in two Kawartha Mixed _ Tennis League events, over the week- énd. On Monday, the OTC team made a clean sweep of their league match against Bowman- ville, with the mixed doubles and ladies' doubles showing marked superiority. Jeannette Kilgour and Marg Grey defeated Anna Strike and Jean Evans 6-3 and 6-0 in the ladies' doubles. In the mixed events, Ralph Harlowe and Susan Smith outclassed Bill Burgess and Betty Lobb 6-2 and 6-4 while Sid and Carole Dods- worth defeated the father-and- daughter team of Dr. Keith Slemon and Virginia Slemon, 6-2 and 7-5. Both of the men's: doubles matches went the three-set limit with Brian Barker and Jim Sutherland beating out Lew Rundle and Lars Carlson, 4-6, 6-4 and 6-1. 'In the other match, Stan Wigg and Clare Kichy won 4-6, 7-5 and 6-3. - In the Kawartha Mixed Ten- nis League championships tournament at Lindsay, Peter- borough, Bowmanville, Oshawa and Lindsay competed. In the mixed doubles, Ray and Wilma Petre defeated their Oshawa clubmates, Sid and Carole Dodsworth, in the final match, 10-8, 6-3. In men's doubles, Brian Barker and Terry Keys of Osh- awa defeated clubmates Jim Sutherland and Ralph McKen- dry, 6-4, 6-3, in the final set. In ladies' doubles, Dianne Jung and Kate Anderson of Lindsay defeated Wilma Petre and Carole Dodsworth in that final, 6-4 and 6-1. In the men's singles final, Don Mackey of Peterborough defeated Oshawa's Brian Barker 6-6 and 6-2. Oshawa's Midgets Beat Long Branch In their Ontario Minor La- crosse Association Midget League game at Long Branch on Tuesday night, Oshawa Midget _ Gaels Branch boys 9-6. Walt Karas led the Oshawa scorers with three goals. Tom Simpson and Larry Shrigley each added a pair while Larry Moore and Ricky Keeler scored one apiece. Al Ashton played a standout game in the Oshawa nets. John Pool was Long Branch's top scorer, with a couple, whil Joe Smith, Brent Meeke, Philip Norris and Rick Cartron added Singletons. defeated Long In the big bonus years, a top draft choice could afford to ride a bench for a few years while working his way into a top job. Now, an all- round player who is fifth in line for a defensive halfback spot with a U.S. team may feel more like trying for star status in Canada where he might get a chance to develop a multiplicity of talents. Some of the top choices picked off the U.S. draft lists by Canadian teams: Halfbacks -- Dennis Caponi, 15th draft choice of Kansas City Chiefs, to Toronto Argo- nauts; Ben Woodson, 15th choice of Oakland Raiders, to Calgary Stampeders. draft Baltimore Colts. British Columbia--Earl and Burl Wood, West Texas State, linebackers. Edmonton -- Burkley Hark- less, North Texas State, guard; John LaGrone, South- ern Methodist, linebacker; Dave Gasser, West Texas, linebacker. Ottawa -- Earl Edwards, Wichita, tackle; Chuck Erlen- baugh, Purdue, guard; Red Anderson, Florida, line- backer. Hamilton -- Jim Burns, Northwestern, tackle, late re- lease by Denver Broncos last year; Jim Leighty, Kalama- zoo, Kansas: City draft last linebacker; Art Bubba choice by Ends--Rick Sheron, d choice of New York Jets, to Edmonton Eskimos; Tim Lavens, ninth choice of New Orleans Saints, to Edmonton. Quarterbacks--Dave Lewis, fifth choice of New York Giants, to Montreal Alouettes; Paul Brothers, 16th choice of Dallas Cowboys, to B.C. Lions. Tackles -- George Gaiser, seventh choice of Detroit Lions, to Saskatchewan Roughriders; Paul Tomich, 10th choice of Buffalo Bills, to Edmonton. Guards -- Bill Seman, 16th choice of New York Giants, to Toronto. Defensive ends -- Lou Ka- manu, fourth choice of De- troit, to Calgary; Ray Scott, ninth choice of New York Jets, to Toronto. In some cases, rather than wait for the March draft of U.S. pros, American players signed early in Canada. The Canadian teams informed their U.S. colleagues so they could bypass these players without wasting a draft choice. Even so, Kansas City wasted its 15th draft choice on Caponi and Detroit used up its fourth pick on Lou Kamanu. SOME NOT DRAFTED Other prospects, not on draft lists, picked up by Ca- nadian clubs: Saskatchewan--Jesse Kaye, Tampa; Tony MacKinnon, Weber State, Utah, defensive end; Glen Gardiner, Brigham Young, two - way lineman; Walt Odegaard, North Da- kota, defensive tackle. Calgary -- Bruce Handley, offensive guard; Mose Wat- kins, defensive tackle, both Weber State. Winnipeg--Lou Morda, Villa nova, offensive guard, line- backer; Roger Bonk, North Dakota, guard - linebacker; Ken Duke, Morgan State, Md., fullback who was 1966 year, Gill, Southern Mississippi, linebacker; Bill Maselter, Wisconsin, tackle; Tom Staf- ford, Virginia Polytech- nic, quarterback. Montreal -- Ron Parsons, Austin Peay College, Tenn., end; Al Tyler, Livingstone College, N.C., quarterback; Ron Edwards, Utah, quarter- back; Carroll Williams, Cin- cinnati, quarterback. Toronto Ken Walters, Adams State, Colo., halfback; Jim Greth, Arizona, flanker; Larry Middlebrooks, Jackson State College, Miss., lineman; Tom Talaga, Notre Dame, lineman. BAKER FROM RAMS There are others. Quarter- back Terry Baker, 1962 Heis- man Trophy winner who spent four years with Los Angeles Rams, was signed by Edmon- ton. Jim Young of Hamilton, with Minnesota Vikings for two years, moves to the B.C. backfield for Willie Fleming. Jerry West, a Michigan State tackle who carries 235 pounds on a 5-11 frame, joins B.C. Lions. Charlie Mitchell is a de- fensive lineman who is not eligible for anybody's draft. The 6-6% crusher from Texas Christian, coveted by Dallas Cowboys, went to Toronto Ar- gonauts because the year of college eligibility he has left made him unsignable by U.S. clubs. And the half-inch over 6-6 that he carries is just enough to put him over the maximum height allowable under the U.S. military draft. Each Canadian team must be down to 18 Canadians and 14 Americans by noon of the day of their first conference game, which will mean a tough cutting job for most coaches. Toronto Argonauts alone will probably have to peel off more than 30 players. By THE CANADIAN PRESS National League WL Pet.

Cassius Still By B. F. KELLUM HOUSTON (AP) --Cassius Clay, talkative as ever, form- ally appealed his five-year pri- son sentence Wednesday and said he is still is heavyweight champion of the world and could whip anybody. Shadowboxing and joking in the Federal Building corridors and elevators, Clay gave no ap- parent indication of concern over his conviction Tuesday on a charge of refusing to be in- ducted into the armed services. In addition to the prison sen- tence, U.S. District Judge Joe Ingraham fined him $10,000. "Regardless of a man's reli- gion or his politics, you just can't ignore he's the cham- pion," Clay told newspaper men. "I am the best. I can whip them all. They all know I'm the champ." Talkative Despite Court Sentence yaa into the Army April When Clay first posted his bond after his indictment, Fed- eral Judge Ben C. Connally said requests to travel outside the United States would have to be ruled on separately. There had been reports Clay hoped to fight in August and September in Sweden and Germany. "T am not even thinking about it now," was Clay's only com- ment. An all-white jury of six men and six women deliberated only 20 minutes Tuesday in finding Clay guilty. Clay had said he is a Black Muslin minister with the name Muhammad Ali and should have been draft exempt. His attorneys also contended draft boards were stacked with white members and therefore discriminated against Negroes. Hayden Covington of Newd York City and Qui Hodges from the British of Houston, Clay's attorneys, filed the notice of appeal andjsaid it considers him heavy- renewed the champion's $5,000 Boxing Board of Control which weight champion, pending out- bond which he had posted May|come of the appeal. 8 following his indictment. ditional one step forward to be "That is real good, real just," |Joel Gangemi and one by Der- Clay refused to take the tra-|Clay said.

While lake trout and speckled trout tapered off as a result of the recent hot spell and heavy rainfalls, pickerel continued to bite well. ; In addition to the bright pic- ture on pickerel, anglers can look forward to Saturday's gen- eral opening of the bass season in the province. The Ontario department of lands and forests, in its weekly report on fishing conditions, said it expects the usual heavy run of fishermen on lakes where bass are plentiful.
