Campbell * The local hockey alas 100 fever heat! Tickled with the dazzling showing made by the Generals on Wednesday night, they are looking forward to seeing Oshawa tie up the series with another win over the Spitfires, here tomorrow night. Spitfires, on the other hand, safely entrenched at the Hotel Genosha, are equally confident. They point out that they 'were very tired after their long trip and that injuries to Busch and Uniac put their team far below strength. They'll have both boys back in the line-up for Saturday night and with a full three.day rest, hope to be in top form. Some of their followers returned home to their daily chores but Ken Johnson, Windsor Star sports scribe, together with Coach Jimmie Skinner and other club officials, are keeping the boys company and they are with fid They point out that they haven't played a good game on Oshawa ice this season and that they are due. It must be admitted, that while they didn't show much here in the schedule, they did finish in first place by doing better against the other teams in the group than the Generals could do. a ™ J -* The hockey here on Wednesday night was of the crowd-pleasing variety that keeps the fans talking for days. That brief show that "pogey" and Ceresino put on together what was without doubt the fast- est two-way display seen here in several seasons. What a pair these two would have made, if together all season. Now, Pogue is pacing his line and Ray has given new life to the Oshawa 3rd line. When "Dusty Blair and "Sandy" Air start getting that puck across to Ceresino in time to keep him onside, then he'll be busting in for breakaway spurts that will have rival defencemen dizzy. Ceresino's splendid back-checking is another strong factor in Oshawa's improved defence play also. The Generals played just as well, if not a shade better. in that Monday game at Windsor and in that one, they had stern opposition all the way but they kept the pace for 80 minutes. On Wednesday, Windsor couldn't keep up the pace past the half-way mark of the second period. It could be the story for the rest of the series, if the Generals are able to keep up the terrific clip they are setting at present. They came out of Wed- nesday's game in tip-top shape, witn no serious injuries and they'll be ready to go all-out again tomorrow night. . y * * Oshawa Minor Hockey Association's representatives didn't exactly set the world afire in their first-games of the O.M.H.A. provincial playoffs. Barrie's classy Bantam team defeated the Oshawa Kiwanis Bantams 5-2, chiefly on a 4.goal splurge in the third period. In th Midget tussle, Kinloch's chalked up the only Oshawa victory of the night, with Eicher getting five of Oshawa's goals in the 7.6 nip-and- tuck victory while Myles also played a big part with a goal and three assists. Poland and MacDonald were the aces for the Barrie Mid- gets, getting all of their six goals. Poland scored four goals and had one assist while MacDonald scored two goals and had assists on all of 'Poland's four tallies. Quite a hockey team, this pair of classy midgets! In the Juvenile team, "Happy" Emms' boy scored two of the goals as Barrie defeated Oshawa Dairy 6-4. Joskowski with two goals and Farrow with three assists were best for Oshawa with Mac. donald and Poland, stars of the Midget team, coming right back to help the Juveniles win also. MaeDonald got two goals in this game and Poland had a goal and three assists. Looks as if Barrie has a couple of "homebrews" coming up who'll be good enough for Junior "A" ranks before very long. ve * * FUTURE GAMES--No games are scheduled In the Junior "A" tonight but on Saturday night the teams really get down to action. Windsor Spitfires will meet Oshawa Generals for the fourth {ime while Galt and Barrie tangle in Barrie for the first time . . .'. Whitby and Byers Motors meet for the first time in their Junior "B" playoffs tonight in Whitby, the second game is set for Oshawa Arena, Monday night, * L 3 Ld SPORT SHORTS--The Olympic hockey team, the R.C.AF.

They were em- broiled in all sorts of fun, when the Czech diplomats scored their coup. and it was wondered if the team would have trouble getting out of the country. But that has all been cleared up evidently, and now the squad moves for home . . .. French newspapers in Paris, commenting on Bar- 'bara Ann Scott's showing there, were widely divided in their opinions of her performance, For the most part they were congratulatory but 1 one paper was just the reverse, and said with no hesitation that the Ottawa girl "would never make them forget Sonja Henie." Maybe Barbara Ann betterscome home soon, the boys are getting a little sour on her work over there. Maybe they were wishing for a French win in the figure skating world . , . . Glen Cunningham set a world's indoor record for the 1,500-metre run at New York 10 years ago tonight. The barrel-chested miler from Kansas covered the "metric mile" in three minutes, 48.4 seconds, clipping 13% seconds from the former mark set by Gene Venzke who finished second. 35 yards behind Cunningham. * * "+ / : SCISSORED SPORT--(By The Canadian Press)--Walter Brown, Vice-President of the Amateur Hockey Association, whose team repre- sented the United States inthe Olympic games, said on his arrival at New York from .Europe yesterday that "I doubt very much there will be any more winter Olympics."

And they have every right to be proud of Jimmy Gry and his foursome of granite tossers who will represent Northern Ontario in the Dominion curling championships at Calgary, March 1.4. Always a strong contender, North. ern Ontario this year has one of the game's greatest "clutch" curl. ers in Guy, who first captured the Northwestern crown, then marched through the northern final at Sud- bury with a 12.7 victory over Bob McMurchy of Noranda. This is the first year the recently formed - Northwestern Curling As. soviation 'has played off with Nor. thern Ontario and Temiskaming Associations. Formerly Kenora rinks competed in the Manitoba 'spiel.

The Guy rink was formed this season, although Jimmy and third man Bill Johnson, both veterans of Manitoba competitions, have been partners for the last six seasons. Born at Cherill, Alta., in 1915, Guy has been curling since a youngster, climaxed with this year's title suf. cesses. Last January he hit the headlines with Grant Watson of Winnipeg, by capturing the major prize of four automobiles at the rich Nipawin, Sask. bonspiel. Skipper Jimmy believed the se. cret of curling success is to "hit the broom and get the weight." Johnson, 36, has curled for 18 BARRIE MINORS WIN 2 OF 3 GAMES New Liskeard Spiel At Quarter Finals In Both Staged Events Mew Liskeard, Feb. 26--In both the first and second events of the intertown bonspiel, currently being run off here the quarter final rounds have been played.

Grills | and Fleming, respectively. years, competing 11 times in Mani. toba bonspiels and getting his share of jewelry, A native of Kenora, Johnson has a reputation as a stea- dy player, unruffled under pressure and sound strategist. "Baby" of the quartet is 21.year- old George Holstrom, now 'in his fifth year at the game, Kenora. born, Holstrom was with a Jim Johnson rink of Kenora which won third prize in the Royal York ev- ent in the recent Toronto Bonspiel. Youngest in experience, but defi. nitely not a weak spot, lead Jack McLeod, 29, a native of Vancouver, has only been curling for two years. A graduate of the University of Bri- tish Columbia, he spent five years with the Royal Canadian Air Force. A Sound Mixture So it's to this mixture of veterans and youth, experience and determi. nation, that Northern Ontario fans are pinning their hopes of captur-- ing their first Canadian champion. ship. And if the boys are "on" they might do just that.

This will be the second time that this steel city has represented Nova Scotia in Dominion championship tilts. In 1928 a rink skipped by S. H. Stevenson saw Gordon Hudson's foursome from the Winnipeg Strathcona Club cop the national title at the Toronto Granite Club, Glinz supporters say the Sydney club has a better chance of hitting the jackpot this year because the curlers are strong exponents of the knockout, or "scatter and keep the circle clean" style of play. Experts say the knockout system has brought 15 championships in 18 competitions since 1927 to Western Canada. The draw game, however, continues to be popular in the East. About the best top end to develop in Cope Breton curling is the Glinz Vallas combination. Vallas, a fes. taurant owner with 15 years' curling experience, is one of the pest third men in these parts.
