~~" THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES; TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1930 PAGE SEVEN "BLUE DEVILS" SWAMP NIAGARA FALLS 20-0 TO WIN GROUP TITLE "Blue Devils" Win Group And Right to Enter Playoffs By Beating "Cataracts" 20-0 Although Weakened by In- juries and Using Only Four Subs, General Mo- tors Blue Devils Defeat . Niagara Falls Readily to Clinch Group Title and Right to Enter Playoffs (By Geo. Campbell) By defeating the Niagara Falls' "Cataracts" on Saturday afternoon in their own back yard by a score of 20 to 0, the General Motors' Blue Devils captured their group championship for this season and won, in addition, the right to enter the playoffs for the Ontario Cham- pionship. The game was a curious gridiron struggle with fumbles being fre- juent. A cold, bitter wind swept the length of the field continually, aumbing the hands and making the Judging of a kick evem more diffi- sult than usual, The Alue Devils were just natur- Alty too good for their opponents and they started right in at the first to assert their superiority. They waded right in from the start and before many minutes had elaps- ed, "Doc" Rowden took a kick on the Niagara Falls' forty-five yard line and ran it back all the way for a touchdown. From then on, it was just plain sailing and except for a shorf®while in the third quar ter, the homesters were only the other team on the field. . The weather was cold but ap- parently the players' tempers took fire at the low temperature as the proceedings were enlivened consid- erably during the third quarter by a series of minor engagements, and penalties. The climax was a short melee which was stopped long be- fore it assumed serious proportions The referee in charge of the game was none other than a previous ac- auaintance of the Blue Devils, Mr. Currie. He missed a great deal of illegal playing, especially in the ling and then when the players began to protect themselves, he resorted to penalties, which seemed just a lite tle severe. At one stage in the third quarter, Oshawa played with only ten men. "Doc" Rowden was tackled around the neck (and it was not the first time) and when he objected in a strenuous manner, Ref. Currie gave him the rest of the game. 'Doc' was mad and he had reason to be. He was only protecting himself and he was giv- en too severe a penalty. If you have headaches, or suffer biliousness or indigestion take Beecham's The pemalty was changed to the end of the quarter instead of the rest of the game. A few nutes later, Bill Tribble asserted himself in Cutler's interests and a sh melee was staged. The Hdd rushed on the field but the yers soon settled down. Trib was sent off for the remainder of the fame but at about the middle of the last quarter, Ref. Currie told the Blue Devils that they might use another player in his place. While Oshawa were playing with two men on the penalty ch, Niagara Falls put up a great scrap and almost mide a gomae of it, Som smart plunging by Corpish, Ho and Wilson epabled the Blug Devils to take the ball far enough up the field for Hubbell to score a nice field goal and this, which happened near the end of the third quarter, proved to be the last scoring of the game, Rowden put Oshawa in the lead near the start with his long run for a8 touchdown. Hubbeill's boot was responsible for twe mere points via the dead-line route, before the first quarter ended the nd quarter, -the Blue Devils played their best rugby of the game. The line-plungers behaved beau- tifully. Cutler was one of the best ground gainers for the Oshawa team. He made an unrequested, "optical connection" with a Niag- ara Falls' player's fist and from then on Don. turned in a smart game. He seems to go much better when he gets peeved. Cornish played most of the game at inside and turned in a sterling perform- ance. McDonald was one of the best tacklers on the field, with Boultbee turning in his usual cen- sistent game. Hubbell booted well but the wind proved detrimental to «ood punting. Rowden scored eo lovely drop-kick for thgee mare points making the total ten. A few minutes later, Hubbell lifted a high one to Haun behind the homesters' line. Haun fumbled and McDonald swooped in and fell on it for a try. It was converted by Rowden -and before the half time whistled had blown, another point had been add- ed to the list by a kick to the dead line. Hubbell's drop-kick in the third quarter concluded the scoring for the day and the remainder of the afternoon was spent in an alternate. ing buck and kick game, in whieh Niagara Falls nearly always came off second best. The Blue Devils tried to move the ball by bucks more than by kicks and this se. counted for them not getting any more points. Hubbell was punting against the wind in the last qua ter, ' McCutcheon, who did the kick- ing for the homesters, was one of the best men they had. He could | not match Hubbell's punts but he did well and he proved to be a very | elugive broken-field runner. Haun was the standout. He was up doubtedly the hardest man to stop that the homesters had. Peckham did some smart tackling, The Mlue Devils introduced a new play- pr to Intermediate O.R.F.U. in the nepson of "Wes."" Hicks, of the O. GYV.1. The Blue Devils came out of the fray without any more serious in- juries, already for their Monday same with Galt-Preston and with the 1930 Group championship tuek- ed away in their belts.

Ottawa Still Hopeful Despite Loss of Clancy (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Ottawa, Ont., Nov, 9.--Wi{th ene exception the regulars of the Otta- wa Senators team which last sea- son fought its way into the cham- plonship play-ofis only to go down before the brilliance of New York Rangers, are intact for the Nationa) Hoekey League 1931-32 pennant chase. But the exception being Frank "King" Clancy, could hardly be a more serious setback to title aspirations. The hard skating, never-tiring Clancy, as potential a threat on the incessant goalward rushes he is famous for, as he was on the de- fence was long sought after by many other teams. An offer, made for him « few weeks ago by Toron- to Maple Leafs, was go generous the Ottawa club management could hardly, in a businegs sense, turn ft back. Two players and $35,000 came to the Senators for their dy- namic defenceman and ex-captain but the gap left by his departure leaves the Ottawans with prospects not nearly so bright as were those of last year. Art. Smith, one of the two men sent here by the Leafs seems des- tined to take the "King's" place on the rearguard. Despite his bulk Smith is a speedy skater and posses- sor of a notoriously hard, tricky shot on goal, Lanky Alex. Smith, who last season teamed with Clan- ¢y, will likely put on a non-rejative brother get with Art. although Har- old Starr is giving the two of them Stiff competition in the pre-season practices for the regular berths. Starr graduated from amatgur com- pany only last year but he plays the rugged style of hockey that is pleas- ing to the fans. In the pets will be the familiar figure of Alex. Connell while the first string forwards will again be Joe mb flanked by Heck Kilrea and Frankie "Irish" Finnigan, the new Senator captain. Possessing as it does two such natural skaters as Kilrea and Lamb, in addition to the quick thinking Finnigan, the regul- ar forward line more than any other factor makes Senators a threat for championship honors. Kilrea, so- called Blonde flash, and Lamb are two of the fastest men in the lea. gue and despite their youth they are veterans in professional ice company. Eric Pettinger, who came here with Smith in the Clancy deal, will probably hold down centre ice posi- tion on the relief forward trio. Yoxy Danny Cox and Art. Gagne will form his wings. As a general utility man Senators will have Billy Touhey, who fills any position on the front rank with equal effectiveness. Tigers Crush M.A.A.A. Hamilton, Nov. 11.--Completely crushed by the most devastating line attack in loeal history, Mon- treal's Winged Wheelers of the Big Four, lost completely all the pres- tige they had gained through pre- viously holding Tigers to a 5-6 deadlock, when they accepted a 29 Q Ato 1 defeat at the hands of the Jungle Kings before & crowd of 7,000 at the HA.A.A. field here on Saturday afternoon, In spite of numerous fumbles on the line together with half a dozen penalties, the Bengals none the less fairly massacred the Blue and Red line, ripping for yards 27 times and holding possession of the ball for minutes on end. Five touchdowns fell to the smashing ball carriers and after the first minute of play, the Jungle Kings were out in front and traveling at top speed. The Bengals led by 6-1 at the end of the first quarter. 8-1 at half- time and by 19 to 1 at thé end of the third frame, finishing up with a pair of touchdowns in the final quarter. hd Sarnia Imperials Win Last Game of Season Sarnia, Nov. 11.--The Sarnia Imperials finished their rugby sea- son Saturday afternoon by defeat- ing the Windsor Ambassadors by an 11-to-0 score here at Athletic Park. With warm weather and lit- tle wind, over 2,000 fans were giv- en a good afternoon of rugby, as this game was the first of a double header. The Wanderer and Lon- don Tecumseh intermediates played after this game. Ontario province has many inter- esting competitions for its farm young people, One of the most suc cessful 'and easily the largest judg ing competitions held this year in that province, was that held for farm girls at Renfrew, when 77 girls en- rolled for the contests, : { Record Crowd Attends When Queens Win Great : Victory From Varsity Striin: * Tri-color Sets Right in andy STER SCORE Get a "Break" in First Play Then Play Sensation | al Rugby, Taking Advant._ age of All Varsity's Mis.| cues to Win Great Vic: tory and Take Ltad of Group ws Toronto, Nov. 11.--Opening up| in an aggressive manner and dis- playing an alertness which was only equalled by VarsMy on a few occa- sions, Queen's secured the jump on the locals during the first period of the critical game of the senior In- tercollegiale series at Varsity Sta- dium on Saturday afternoon and, after capitalizing on the Blue's mis- takes and taing advantage of al- most every scoring chance offered to them, the champion Tricolor from Kingston trotted off the field with a 12 to victory to their credit. This gave last year's col- lege title-holders the leadership in the race and. with each team having but one more game to play practi- cally assured the winners of the championship for another year. Of course, it is still possible for the Blue and White to win out but their task is a hard one; not only must they win in London against Western Ontario next Saturday but McGill will have to at least tie Queen's in Kingston to give the eastwhile leaders another chance to represent the Intercollegiate in they C.R.U. play-offs. Although Varsity were the favor- ites, and justly so on a comparison of the records of the two teams in preyioug games thig geason, jt was convincingly demonstrated that rugby games are decided by the play on the field and not by past performances. Queen's deserved the victory, partly because they played the more dashing style of game and made the out-played the locals in the debart- ments in which Varsity was conced. ed a decided edge. In the four previons games the kicking of Jack Sinclair had been a most of their | openings and partly because they | ONLY GOAL AGAINST TORONTO SCOTTISH -- Toronto, Nov. 11.-=Ulster United und Toronto Scottish met at Ulster "tadfum in a replayed semi-final in the Consols Trophy before a large crowd on Saturday, the Redhanders | winning by the only goal scored. In the first game the Scottish tied up the score in the last minute, af- ter being behind 'twice during the game, The game on Saturday was full of excitement, neither team be- ing able to demonstrate any super- fority, The play was not of a brile lant nature, but one of dogged per~ severance, with both teams striving hard to get the ball into the net. In the first half Graham for Ulster and Cairns for Scottish missed good chances when close in. Halliwell was called upon geveral times in the Scottish goal, but was able to dea) with all the shots sent his way. The interval found the score sheet blank. Turville's Boot Wins For Argos Ottawa, Nov. 11*--(CP)--With a brilliant kicking display that saw him boot every one of his team' points, Captain Frank Turville Ss! urday led the Toronto Argonauts te a 9-1 triumph over Ottawa Senators at Lansdowne Park. 8ix rouges and a placement goal made up the Oarsmen's tdtal and each point was | made by the foot of the backfielder who last week was awarded the Jefl Russell memorial trophy as being of the greatest value to his team. It was the final Big Four game of the local season, and saw the home team close out their scheduled en- gagements for 1930 without scoring {a victory. Six straight defeats are 'halked down on the records against the Ottawa club snd al thoaeh they made a gallant effort ye ¥i to register one triumph decided factor in the Blue and White's success, but right from the | opening whistle, when they had a stiff breeze behind them, the Tri- color gave notice that they were out to decide the struggle by an serial attack, and ag Howie Carter had a decided edge on Sinclair in the kicking duel. the heaviest gun of the Blue's attacking force was spiked to a considerable degree. Carter kicked with great judgment and he was ably supported by his tackling brigade. It was not until after half time that the Varsity kicker and his tacklers commenced to work together and by this time Nueen"s had secured a commanding lead which they protected until the | final whistle. Varsity on Defensive From From the opening kick-off when Gilmore returned Sinclair's. hoist until well on in the fourth period Queen's put it right up to Varsity, With the wind behind them and as. sisted by a couple of costly errors on the part of the locals the Tri- color hemmed Varsity in their own end of the field and played for the hreaks which ultimately came. Sin. 'lair could not mateh Carter in the first period end the Rlue kicker's narings went toon far for his wings, who were well blocked in their ef- forts to get down the field, This gave Carter and Cilmore lots of time to return the ball and in the opening 15 minutes six Varsity kicks were returned. This style of attack had the Blue on the defemsive all the time and the pressure told. First there was a fumble on a plunge by Jimmie Sinclair and while it did not result in a Queen's score at once the Tri- color was able to continue the pres- sure and gradually drove Varsity back. An advamce of 20,yadds, tak- ing play at the losers' 25-yard line put Queen's in a position for Gil- more to kick the first of his two goals from placement and a little while later another attempt of the same kind resulted in a rouge.

'McGill Wins Game From » Western U. Montreal, Nov, 11.--=(CP)--Me¢- Gill University kept themselves out of the cellar position in the Inter- collegiate rugby and put Western there by defeating the Mustangs, 4 to 1, In the final game of the season here Saturday. The Redmen kick- ed their way to victory in a game that held little interest owing to the fact that both teams were out of the running for the Intercollegi- ate title, 'All the points were rouges. The score hardly represents the margin of superiority the local team had over London. MeGill were seldom in danger of being beaten and for at least three-quar- ters of the game play was entirely confined to Purple territory. The Red team generally carried she play although it was only on the kicks they had the edge. The Mustang line again proved impassable, but Brown and Patterson, who shared the kicking for Western, fell short of the mark set by Lovering ang Doherty for McGill. i -------- S.P.A. Entries Close For For a while the Blue held their own but steadily Carter's kicking | and a run of 20 yards by the same player after accepting a kick had the locals in the shadow of their] own goal posts, Then a bad snap by Captain Johnny Keith on the third down prevented Sinclair get- ting the ball away and Queen's se- cured eight yards out.
