At that time, with the GM-Men sitting second from the bottom in the standing, and net going too well either, it might have looked like wishful thinking but today, the local lads are in second place and the only team they haven't beaten is Port Colberne. The Sailors come hers next Monday night-- so we think the GM-Men will fulfil our prophesy before Christmas. > +P Incidentally, the game here next Monday is the only game the local Seniors have in the next two weeks. That's too bad because right now the GM-Men are the hottest team in the league and they would be able to Tie up a few valuable points. +* + + They fairly sizzled again last night as they handed the Ham- ilton Dofascos their first defeat of the season and by so doing, moved into 2nd place ahead of Brights. Niagara Falls lost to St. Catharines last night when the Saints scored six goals in the third period, under the leadership of Red Reynolds, who hadn't been doing a great deal this season, up until last night. + + Ebby Edmison missed last night's game here, due to blood-poisoning, caused fro n infected blister on his heel. The infection developed over the week-end. * + + Coach Tracy Shaw moved George Ritchie, the speedy defenseman, into the pivot spot between the two Johnnies and Ritchie immediately rapped in the first goal in the first half-minute of play and three min- utes later, again combined with Carr-Harris, to make it 2-0 for Oshawa. Carr-Harris looked better last night than he has looked yet, his sizzling shot for the second tally having Goalie Eley beat all the way * + + Regina Tisdale turned in another whale of a game, with his wingers being right in step. Roy Covert and his youthful mates put on a great display, too. Scotty Reid nicked a neat' tally and the congratulations shcwered upon him by his mates was just another bit of evidence as to why the GM-Men are going places. They're not a bunch of stars but they are a great hockey club and they have plenty of team-spirit and will-to-win, * + + Oshawa's defense was brilliant last night. Daniels, Barnes and Maundrell all turned in stand- out performances, with Doug. Maundrell beginning to hand out those rousing body-checks that made him so effective for the Oshawa team, a couple of seasons ago. Barnes cleared well, should have had a goal with a great shot while Daniels blocked better than ever -- and that means plenty. * + * Oshawa players were responsible for all the goals. Harry McQueston is beginning to wish that the op- pcacnts would score their own goals. Leo Lamourcux (and he's a swell ciseinlan now who makes every 10) got the first goal, when g sho. caromed off Carr- nto tne net.

Because Caplin, Salica's manager, | told his fighter to go out and ham- mer away at Montana's body. The first punch Salica landed on Mon- tana's ribs made the former fly- weight world champion flinch. The second one knocked him down and he went down nine more times be- fore the bout was stopped after 90 seconds in the third round. It was a murderous sight to watch Salica popping Montana systemat- ically in the ribs, knocking him down every time he landed a solid punch. Once in the second round Salica abandoned his body attack, and then for the only time in the fight Montana looked like the pow- erful little piece of fighting machin. ery that .dominated the flyweight division a few years ago. But then Salica went back to his hammering body attack, and the end was inevitable. Montana acted all ough the fight as if his ribs were bothers. him. Salica confirmed this, "I tried to be fair, but supposin' it was me had bad ribs," he said. "I wouldn't get much sympathy. Hymie (Cap- lin) told me to bust him in the rips right off. I did.

Leo Lamoureux's shot from the blue-line, in the peried, caromed into the net off | Carr-Harris and Thompson kicked Hamilton's second goal into his own net, when trying to clear after | overtaking an Fritz, jn the third period. McQueston, at that, had more work to do than did his rival at the | | other end of the rink, but it was tough luck that the only two shots | that beat him came into his citadel at the direction of his own mates. Regina Tisdale turned in another | brilliant game for the home forces, with both of his wingers, Jerry Cocper and Durling also sharing in the . limelight. The third trio, Co- vert, Peters and Reid, uncorked their best hockey of the season, with Covert showing his old-time | zip while Scotty Reid notched a nifty goal in the second period, to receive a prompt ovation from the fans and hearty congratulations from his mates. Johnny Thompson scored one in the pass by "Ab" Barnes. The third period was only 19 sec- onds old when Oshawa made it 5-1, Jerry Cooper being on hand to de- | flect Regina Tisdale's shot into the net, Tisdale making his play while sliding along the ice. ; Defense Stands Out Oshawa's rear-guard division was especially effective in last night's victory. Don Daniels was in rare form, his blocking and interceptions being responsible for many spoiled Hamilton plays. Barnes was handy man with his fast-breaks and rug- ged checking while Capt. Doug. Maundrell was the pick of the trio, since he not only played a formi- dable game at the blue-line with his covering up and blocking but hes body-checking was one of the bright spots in the entertainment. Slapped "behind the eight-ball" with Oshawa's rapid two-goal start, the visiting Hamilton team never did get clicking. They tried hard and pressed deep into Oshawa ter- ritory on many occasions but they couldn't seem to click. When they did get dangerous, Harry McQues- ton was right there to make a sparkling save and keep them at bay. Fritz, Conick, Brady and Groom were the pick of the forwards while Leo Lamoureux played a stellar game on defense, starring both be- cause of his defensive play and ef- fective rushes. TOMMY ANDERSON TO PLAY New York, Dec. 3.--New York Americans announced tonight that Tommy Anderson, left winger, was not injured as seriously as was at first thought in last night's National Hockey League game here with Bos- ton Bruins, and will be able to play at Boston tonight.

Over 1,800 fans | saw the Garden City sextet come | from behind a 4-2 count and collect victory spoils with a withering clos- ing surge. Captain Red Reynolds paced the Saints to victory with an inspiring display, of leadership. The Falls broke in front with a pair of goals in the second period and led 4-2 entering the concluding session. The Saints levelled the count at 4-4, bus Obs Heximer, making his first amateur start since reinstated by the C.AH.A, put the Niagara sextet in the lead again at' 14:50. Rey= nolds took charge o! procesdings on the part of the Saints from that point on, scored twice and as:isted in two other goals as the home- sters blasted their way to victory.
