Windsor Marlboros in Toronto on Tuesday night and met Young right back in. Windsor last night, Tomorrow night they play Oshawa Generals at home and then on Saturday they play Generals here in Oshawa. That's a total of four games in nights--which is mighty tough going for any hockey team, especially Juniors. Incidentally, the Spitfires whipped Young Rangers 19-1 last night in what is described as a warm-up for the Oshawa visit on In the other Junior "A" game last night, Stratford Kroehe Flyers 3-2 in a keen struggle.

In the final frame scored with Chuck Blair's help to tie it up, early in the period and minutes later, goalie Cec. Gruhl fanned on a lift shot by "Dusty" from the blue-line district. He played it carelessly and the puck off his glove into the net. After that the Generals came up with a superb brand of back-checking and defensive play to help "Pete" Piquette hold the desperate Teepees in check. The homesters tried six f for the last minute and a half but still the Oshawans held out. Now Generals will rest tonight and tomorrow, head for Windsor, w! hope to stop the Spitfires' victory streak, right on their own ice. they fail, they get another chance on Saturday here, when the crowd of the season, to-date will be on hand to see Spitfires and Generals tangle. * " * With most of the sports fans these days chiefly interested in the rugby playoffs, the news that Virgil Wagner wins the Jeff Russi Memorial Trophy, etc. And of course, there's the big game on Sat- urday between Argos and Ottawa, when the Roughriders must wipe out a 3.point deficit or leave the title to the champions. In the Junior "Big Four," Hamilton Tigers whipped Argos Jrs. last night 16-2 to win the round 27.25 and retain that title. In the N.H.L., Chicago Black Hawks, sparked by their Maple Leaf "bloed-transfu. sion," defeated 'the "donors" last night in Toronto 5.4 and Boston Bruins won handily over N.Y. Rangers.

Junior "A" race when they hung on after "Dusty" Blair's long shot had been badly played by goalie Cec. Gruhl, to permit the winning goal. Fast Scoring By Gens. St. Kitts opened the scoring in the first period only to have the Generals spring back with a couple of fast tallies within thirty seconds when Chuck Blair banged in O'Con+ nor's pass-out and Ross Lowe also clicked with Ted O'Connor's assis- tance. Buschlen, who had been serving a penalty, redeemed himself while Lowe was doing time, to tie it up at 2-2 for the first period. St. Kitts Enjoy Edge The Teepees enjoyed an edge in play in the middle canto, after Ted O'Connor had scored a nifty goal on a rush started by Jack Heggie and boosted by Dusty Blair. Ross Lowe came up with his se- cond goal and again O'Connor was the man who set up the play, giv- ing him four points on Oshawa's first four goals. Iikes that St. Catharines' ice). 'Leading 4-2, the General relaxed just a shade and in a flash the a- lert homesters had moved in to take over the lead. Oshawa's scoring hadn't started until the period was more than half over. Right after Lowe's second goal, Hildebrand scored with Milne's help, within 17 seconds. Late in the period, Buschlen tied before the period ended, Buck scor- ed from a pass by Service, to put Teepees in front 6-5. Osh Stages C. George Scholes combined with Chuck' Blair for Oshawa's tying goal early in the third period and then the scrambly, bad-passing dis- play was highlighted when "Dusty" Blair let go with a drifter from the blue-line. Gruhl played it careless- ly and the puck caromed off his glove into the rigging, for ~ what proved the winning tally. After this Teepees battled des- perately but the Generals came to life sufficiently to brush up their defensive play and give Pete Pi- quette enough help to enable him to hold that lead, despite some sizz- ling shots by the homesters. Ross Lowe with his two goals, Ohuck Blair with his contribution and also "Dusty" with his one-and. one, were all to the fore for Osha- wa in a mediocre display by the Generals as a team but Ted O'Con- nor was the game's star, with his goal and three assists.

That was before tularemia scares swept, the country. Then more "boils" seemed to appear on the rabbits, and word got about that you risked your life practically every time you came in eontact with a cottontail. While I'm not deprecating the danger of tularemia--a friend of mine lost his life because of it and I've heard of a number of other victims--your danger of contracting the disease is scant if you're a bit careful, The only rabbit I ever shot that I suspected of having tularemia was hardly able to hop away when my companion and I flushed him. We examined his body by pulling twigs through the fur. It was emaciated and harbored more fleas than an Indian dog. We poked some forest debris over it and left it where it lay. That's the rule No. 1 in avoiding tularemia--never touch a rabbit that appears to Jack the usual pep 6 | when you flush it. Another rule is, don't hunt rab- bits in regions known to contain infected animals. Usually tularemia is confined to certain areas and at Montreal; Chicago at New York.
