It was the Sailors' third win in four starts. Toronto Marlboros also took ad- vantage of Hamilton's open date 'o take over the second spot, one point up on Dofascos. Marlboros spoiled Oshawa"s home opening with a 5-3 decision. At Port Colborne the Sailors struck victory blows in the second period after a scoreless opening 20 minutes. Thompson, on a neat com- bination play with Shuttleworth and McKelvie scored at the 13:30 mark and four minutes later McLeod stole the puck inside the Saints' defence zone and tallied the second goal. Roy Heximer reduced the count 10 minutes after the third period opened after a steady offensive. Shuttleworth clinched the game with Port Coloorne's third goal two minutes from time. Eddie Powers' Marlboros ran up a 3-0 first-period lead and from that point on held their own against the bottom-placed club although Morti- mer in the Toronto nets had many close calls. Ezeard opened the scor- ing on a pass from Davidson, Kerr flipped a pass to Dunbar for the second counter and King scored the final first-period goal with assists going to Davidson and Imlach. Covert netted on a pass from Cooper to make it 3-1 on. the first Oshawa rush of the second session and Peters made it 3-2 five min- utes later on a pass from Edmison.

SAINTS BOW TO SAILORS, 3-1 Port Colborne, Nov. 12. -- Port Colborne Sailors moveg into first place in the O.H.A. Senior "A" series when they defeated St. Catharines Saints, 3-1. here last night. A crowd of 1500 saw the Sailors reel off their third win in four starts and hurdle into first place over the idle Hamilton Do- fascos. The loss was the third straight for the still witless Saints, Port Colborne struck victory blows in the second pericd when they broke a goalless deadlock with a pair of counters, A smooth, three- way offensive by Thompson, Shut- tleworth and McKelvie brought the first goal at the 13:30 mark, Thompson flipping the disc into the twine. Two minutes before the per- iod's end, McLeod added to the Port lead when he stole the puck inside the Saints' defense zone and whipped a backhander from the right boards that foole! Forder. St. Catharines tossed caution to the winds in the third period and maintained a Ret offensive through- out. Bul the best their hard ef- forts could produce was a goal by Roy Heximer at the 10-minute juncture. Dunk set up the play from a ganging attack, passing to Hezimer in front of the cage for the tally. The Tars played cau- tiously throughout the final session, waiting for the breaks. They got the major one little more than two . minutes from the finish when Shut- tleworth counted from g breakaway with McKelvie and Thompson. St. Kitts had a slight edge in the first period, but found Sargeant in the Sailor cage insurmountable. The Sailors forced the pace throughout the middle canto as play roughened and six penalties were dished out. Sargeant, Gallinger and Swanson featured defensively for the win- nere, with the line of McKelvie, Thompson and Shuttleworth best on the offense. The Hastie-Rossini- Heximer line, and Backor were out- standing for the losers. O.H.A.

Schedule 1940-41 Foothallers to | Thrill the Fans By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, Nov. 12--(CP)--The eyes of the crowd will be on two mighty little footba'lers who run the bigger | guys ragged when Ottawa Rough | Riders meet Toronto Argonauts here next Saturday in the first play- | off game of the Big Four Football League. The new scoring comtine of little Aniy Tommy and lit:ler Orville Burke came out in the open with a vengeance Saturday #5 Riders | fought their way to a tizht 19-18 | victory over Hamilton's Tigers. Tommy Weighs only 160 pounds; Burke 153. | Twice Burke ghosted back, swung | his arm and sent the ball sailing | straight into Tommy's arms All Tommy had to do each time was cross the "Tiger goal-line. The touchdowns gave Jommy 20 points and second place in the lea- gue scoring totals, one point behind Hamilton's Scotty Wright Riders usually are synonymous with heft and 50 it's something of a paradox for two such tackweights, smallest men | on the team, to carry che ball for | becomes less confusing, | Ottawa. It though, after study of the records Through eight long seasons, In 1933--his first season with Riders --he set up an individual record by sprinting 115 yards for a touch- down against Toronto Argonauts. Tommy was born in Hartland, N.B, but spent most of his early career at nearby Woodstock. In 1933, with nothing behind him but experience gained playing English rugger in his native New Bruns- wick, he travelled to Ottawa and became the freshman sensation of the Big Four, Burke's role with Ri'ers has been less conspicuous but just as impor- | tant. Ever since 1938, when quar- | terbacking Ottawa became his steady job, the shifty forward pass- er has been the man who made Riders tick. The 1939 Dominion finalists had plenty of power before Burke came on the scene but couldn't seem to hit their real stride. Then Orville started firing passes all over the lot and Coach Ross Trimbie's team had the punch and diversity it needed. Ever since, it's been a case of "as Burke goes, so go the Riderz." He's good in every game they win and if they lose it's a pretty safe bet Orville was off-color, No better illustration is needed than the Dominion final between Ottawa and Winnipeg Blue Bomb- ers last fall. Burke's pasting was less effective than usual that day and with a minute to play he bob- bled a catch that led to Winni- peg's winning point, But such moments are rare with the young man who first crashed . football with the Ottawa St. Patrick's College Junior Inter- collegiate team in 1933. After three vears with St: Pat's, the 23-year-old native -O'tawan took the hop to Rough Riders. It was an uneasy landing but he made it. Looking" back at jt now, Burke Is hard pressed to explain how he reached the top of the ladder. "I wasn't any marvel when started,". he said. "Success didn't come suddenly, 1 Just sort of considered | | power | Andy | Tommy has been one of the arrest- | ing figures in the Big Four scene grew on me." OFFICIAL SENIOR O.H.A.

BANTAM CHAMP HELD TO DRAW Toronto, Nov. 12 (CP)--Jackie Callura, hard-hitting young fighter from Hamilton, Ont, is feeling | justly proud of himself today after | holding Georgie Pace of Cleveland, former world bantam champion to a 10-round draw. He thinks he could beat pace in another go. The Pace-Callura battle was the feature attraction at a boxing show here last night. Callura had his opponent down | twice in the first round. for counts | of three and nine, and Pace, never | before knocked off his feet, was webbly when the round ended. He | came back strong during the rest of | the fight, however, and earned the | draw with his clever infighting. Callura weighed in at 127 and Pace at 125%, Harry Hurst of Montreal, 136, knocked out Lloyd Lasky of Phila- delphia, 140, in 50 seconds of the first round of their preliminary bout. Angelo Callura of Hamilton, 126%, | won a six-roun: decision over Dusty Brown of New York, 134. Scotty | Ramage of Toronto, 120, won an- other six-round decision over Danny Webb of Montreal, 124. Joey Bags nato of Toronto, 137, won the six- round decision in the semi-final | over Mickey La Marr of New York, | 135%. : BRUINS MEET BLACK HAWKS IN HOME GAME (By The Canadian Press) The Bruin team that manager Art Ross has called tlie best ever to represent Boston in the National Hockey League takes up the fight again tonight after a nine-day lay- off. Bruins last were in action on Nov. 3, when they played a 1-1 overtime draw in Montreal against Cana- diens. They make their home-town debut tonight against Chicago Black Hawks, who lost 1-0 to New York Americans in their opening encounter but defeated Canadiens 3-1 last Sunday night. So far this has been one of the N.H.L.'s best seasons in the matter of predictions by coaches and managers, who seldom are reticient anyhow about the possibilities of their clubs. Ross doesn't mind saying Bruins look like a good bet to finish at the top of the standing, and the same goes for manager Lester Patrick of New York Rangers. Even the usually silent Dick Ir- vin, the ccach of Canadiens, figures that his charges will finish In fourth position despite the fact that the team is heavily stocked with rookies. Irvin is particularly intent right now, however, in grooming - his charges for their game Thursday night in Montreal against Toronto Maple Leafs, the team he left last season after coaching for a good many years. Defenceman Alex Singbush may be missing when Canadiens go up against the Leafs, because of a shoulder injury suffered in the game against the Hawks. It was reported last night that Irvin is likely to use Tony Graboskl, who starred last season with Sydney Millionaires, in place of Singbush. Graboski did not see action in the first two Montreal games, v Oui ASA AA Indians To Appoint Today's Sporting Features Senior 'O.H.A. Schedule Is Announced Manager Today London Plays in Oshawa On Monday Next Marlies Build Up 3-Goal Lead Early in Game; GM-Men Work Hard Mortimer Hard to Beat in . the Nets; Home Squad Were Brilliant in Final Frame A sparkling play by Johnny In- glis who set up a perfect pass for his right winger, Shkamlock, to score, after the pair had broken away from an Oshawa ganging at- tack, proved the turning-point in the Senior O.H.A. opening game at the local arena last night. Toronto Marlboros went on to win u closely- contested game by a 5-to-3 score The Dukes' blond defenceman, Davidson, was resting in the pen- alts box and the GM-Men were testing Mortimer. Marlies' goalie, from every angle when Inglis did his breakaway act: The Oshawa de- 'fence succeeded in overhauling th2 flying Inglis, but he neatly drew them to one side and tnen laid a perfect pass to Shamlock, who had trailed him into the Oshawa de- fensive area. That worthy made no mistake, McQuesten had no chance to save. Marlies Take Lead That counter took a iot of steam out of the Oshawa attack. The GM-Men had been outplayed in the latter part of the first period and the Marlies had built up a three- goal lead on goals by Ezeard from Dnvid nn, Dunbar from Kerr, and an r at the mark when King converted passes from Davidson and Imlack How- ieteen-minute "= DORATY MAY RETURN TO AMATEUR RANKS Saskatoon, Nov. 12.

RANGERS GOING STRONG WIN TWO GAMES By ROBERT CLARKE, Canadian Press Staff Writer One week of fighting along the National Hockey League battle front has left the impression with even the most casual observer that it will be difficult for the other teams in the league to stop the drive of the New York Rangers' ever, Oshawa looked like a differ- ent team when they opened the second frame with a goal by Roy Covert on Cooper's pass after only 21 seconds of play. With the spark of encouragement that counter provided the local boys improved a great deal and the maj- ority of the play was in Marl- boro's end of the ice where Morti- mer was kept very busy. After five minutes ¢f scrimmaging, Gar Peters tallied on a pass from: Edmison. Following this reverse, the Marl- boro defence . became a bit more zealous in their blocking and Dav- idson drew his rest for some ques- tionable behaviour. Immediately the GM-Men put on the pressure in an effort to gain the tying goal but, the ever-alert Inglis spoiled the show from an Oshawa standpoin?y by making the play for what proved to be the winning counter. Imlach added another a minute later before the locals had recov- ered from the blow, and although he also drew. ga penalty before the period ended, the GM-Men were not able to take advantag. of it. The home squad turned in their best hockey of the night in the final frame but one goa. was all they were able to push behind the agile Mr. Mortimer. Oshawa puck- carriers were unlucky around the Marlboro net, missing more than one open net, sometimes by plenty, and shooting into the goalie's pads. However, Mortimer must be given credit for a sparkling effort and was one of the stars of his team. McQuesten was also steady, against his former mates, and could not be held responsible for any that beat him. Improved Performance The GM-Men turned in an im- proved performance over their for- mer two starts in Hamilton and Port Colborne, put lack of condition is still noticeable In spots. The strange figures on the squad all turned in good efforts with Edmi- son gnd Carr-Harris being the most noticeable. The defence trio and Covert, Barnes and Cooper were perhaps the most outstanding per- formers for the locals with Peters, Thompson and Tisdale also turning in fine work. The blond defence pair, Davidson and Drummond, were prominent for Toronto, while Imlach, Inglis and Eddie King were very efficient front line troops.

Only two games have been play led by the unit led by Lester Patrick, | but as both werg in enemy territory they serve as a fair gauge on the capabilities of the team that finish- ed second in the standing last sea=- son and then went on to win the Stanley Cup. Patrick's warriors staried off Nov, 12 with a 4-1 victory over the Maple Leafs at Toronto, then followed it up Saturday night by playing a 2-2 overtime draw in Detroit with the Red Wings. As things stand now, the Rangers are one of two une beaten teams in the league with Boston Bruins, who have played only a single game, being the other. In other games on the week-end, Chicago Black Hawks and The Maple Leafs scored their first vic- tories of the season, with The Hawks winning 3-1 over Canadiens in Montreal and The. Leafs blank- ing the Red Wings 3-0 Saturday night in Toronto. The Rangers, who showed their ability to make: lightning thrusts by scoring three goals in less than two minutes against Leafs in their first game, demonstrated a forceful counter-attack against The Wings. The Wings scope. the first two goals, The Rangers the next two. The first Detroit goal went to Sid Abel, a little more than a min- ute from. the end of the first period. The Wings wel two up when Kenny Kilrea scored shortly after the half-way mark in thé second period but before the session was over Clint Smith and Neil Colville tallied for the Rangers to even the score, ' The Black Hawks, beaten 1-0 by New York Americans on Nov. T, gained their victory over Canadiens with a pair of goals in the third period. The Hawks and Canadiens were matched in speed through the first two periods, but the Montreal ers faded in the last session as Bill Carse and George Allen scored for the Hawks. Before these goals, Tony Demers had blasted one of his bullet drives by goalie Paul Goodman of the Hawks in the first period and John- ny Chad had tallied in the second period to even it up. Heavy body=- ing by Chicago defencemen in the first two periods slowed down the Habitant forwards for the third frame. ; The Maple Leafs scored a goal in each period against- the wings Saturday night, with Nick Mets filling in brilliantly at left wing with Syl Apps and Gordie Drillon in place of injured Bob Davidson. Each man on the new line fired home a goal, with Apps getting the one in the first period, Metz the one in the second and Drillon the one in the third. In addition, Drillon and Metz figured in Apps' goal while Apps also picked up an assist on Metz's score. The only marker in which at least two of the men on the line . did not figure was the one scored by Drillon, for defenceman Wally Stanowski made the play for the goal. The shutout was the second of the season and the first one for Goalie Turk Broda of the Leafs. Earl Robertson has the other from = Americans' 1-0 victory over the Black Hawks.
