PAGE TWELVE THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1948 BY Geo. H. Campbell PORT NAPSHOTS By The Canadian Press Boston Bruins will be on their home ice tonight when they seek re- venge for the 7-3 beating they took Sunday from the first-place De- troit Red Wings, ost idle during "Sport Snapshots $5.00 Club" has beer er 7 the past three the heavy pressure of summer sport busineg# i: months but sport-minded citizens have beex ty from time to time and the "Sport Smipshols since August 7 from $2,155.00 to $2,290.00. Our 1 least reach the $2,500.00 mark in time to present a cheque for this sum to the Oshawa Kinsmen Club Stadium Fund, as a Christmas gift. Of course, if it should reach tae $3,000.00 mark, so much the better. Anybody that has had in wind making a donation through the "Sport Snapshots $5.00 Club' should get busy and send their cheque along right away. There are still dozens of local citizens who should be making their contriiut'on to Oshawa's new outdoor sports stadium. With a circulation of over 9,000, surely there are more readers of "Sport Snzpshots" who would like to be helping this worthy fund, than we have heard from so far. 4 B) Reviewing the splendid donations we have received in the past three months, we find some very strong sport boosters supporting the "Spor Snapshots $5.00 Club." Members of the Sergeants' Mess of the 11th Armored Regiment heve, have sent along a nice donation. So did Ron Wilson, local insurance broker who during the war served in the Cana- dian Navy and prior to that and now again, was and is a keen Oshawa sports booster. Ivan Parrott, a keen sports fan from the Duplate group; Harold "Doc" Brasley, former manager of Oshawa Arena; the "boys' at Lee's Laundry; Dr. D. E. Steckley, Oshawa Skating Club enthusiast, Ev Disney, a "regular" at hockey and ball games; all these have swelled the total. An anonymous gift "In Memory of Bill Robinson, a Cedar Dale Boy," is just another of the many donations to the fund, in memory of an Oshawa sports booster who will not be here to see the stadium opened next spring. 'A group of former pals and fellow-workers of the late Fred "Maggie" Frink, pooled their donations for a nice sum to help the Sport Snapshots Fund too. The former Oshawa baseball pitching ace and softball catcher was popular in local sport circles, as this fine gesture shows. oe L J LJ L Due to the power cut-offs during the daylight hours, officers and directors of the Oshawa Curling Club have decided to postpone their annual "R. S. McLaughlin Trophy Five-Day Bonspiel," an annual feature which got under way here about three scasons ago. The situation is that the games, usually of three-hour duration, could not be played in the morning or afternoon as planned and so it was felt better and more co-operative with the "power problem" that exists to postpone the five-day bonspiel, rather than attempt to play the three games in the late afternoon and evening, The power shortage is apt to hit at plenty of sporting activity before the situa- tion is cleared up. In the meantime, the curlers are going ahead with plans to have ice ready for curling within the next two weeks or less. 4 * LJ SPORTS SHORTS--Indoor sports will soon hog the limelight as the weather gets on the cold side, though there are still those merry souls who love to get out into the wide open spaces and do a little skiing on the side . . . Frankly, we like to live dangerously, a thrilling gare of chess just suits us fine . . . One of the problems facing an inter- mediate basketball team is the place in which they are to follow the sport. If it is near the centre of town, swell! he crowds should be big. If not look out, for the cold nights don't encourage people out to distant places to watch a sport they aren't sure of yet . . once a person has played the game, he is a gone gosling and can't stay away from the corded loop . . . Canadian Army officers won the in- | ternational military team jumping championship to climax their suc- cessful invasion of the National Horse Show in Madison Square Garden, New York, 11 years ago today.

Tigers won the first game of their best-of-three playoff series with Toronto <atoon, Kent Phillips, Canadian Rugby Union president, said Tuesday night that . Of course, | While the National Hockey Lea- gue's two top clubs are battling in Boston, Chicago Black Hawks and New York Rangers will be fighting in Madison Square Garden for the cellar spot. Results Important : The Boston-Detroit game means a lot to both teams in the early- season race. A win for Boston would put them--temporarily, at least--in- to second place all alone, two points ahead of Montreal Canadiens. Red Wings are riding a three-game win- ning streak. Handing It Out After losing 4-2 to Chicago last Sunday, the crippled Rangers--all but goalie Chuck Rayner--got the worst tongue-lashing of the season from Coach Frank Boucher. "You're big boys," he told them BOSTON'S STILL SMARTING UNDER 7-3 Tuesday, "let's see you dish it out instead of taking it all the time." Moe Back Again Defenceman Bill Moe is expected to play part of the game, despite a stick in the mouth in Chicago Sun- day which has been troubling him ever since. He had just recovered from head injuries in Rangers dis- astrous pre-season auto cmash. For Chicago, the game is the start of a four-games-in-five-nights grind. Bill Tobin's Hawks move on to Montreal Thursday Toronto Sat- DEFEAT BY RED WINGS urday and back home Sunday to play Detroit. Rangers and Hawks are tied for last place in the loop. Shifts Gus Bodnar Coach Charlie Conacher of Chi- cago shifted the Conacher-Stewart- Bednar line in early-week workouts. Gus Bodnar, regarded as a natural centre when he played with, Toron- to last year, was shifted to right wing with Jimmy Conacher put in the pivot spot. The fourth-place Maple Leafs hope to have right wing Howie Meeker back in harness for Satur- day's game--their only tilt this week. Meeker broke a toe three weeks ago against Montreal and has been lagging, despite a specially- reinforced boot. Flem On K-L-M Line In workouts Tuesday, Coach Hap Day moved Flem Mackell up to Meeker's spot on the Kennedy- Lynn line and put utility man Joe Klukay in Mackell's slot alongside Max Bentley and Les Costello.

It may | | be the first appearance of the | | OCVI Grads, an Intermediate "B" | club entered in the Ontario Basket- | | ball Association series. | As was stated at the meeting by | Ric Solway, one of the more en- | | thusiastic of the cagers, "the big | | problem is not in fielding a team, | {but in getting a place for them to | play." unless arrangements for an East-West junior football final can be made | a before Saturday there may not be any final. He was commenting on report from Myer Insky, head of a committee set up to arrange for the Canadian junior final, that the group would meet to discuss arrange- ments as soon as the Eastern finalist is decided , . . Montreal Canadiens split up into two teams for an exhibition game in Valleyfield, Quebec, Tuesday night with the Whites defeating the Reds 6-3. Proceeds of the game went to the Valleyfield Braves junior team of the Quebec | Junior Hockey League Association, compensation for the transfer of star forward Bernie Quesnel. Quesnel, league leading scorer in the JAHA last season when playing for Valleyfield, joined Nationales, a Canadien farm team, this season, Valleyfield refused to give him his release unless they received something in retuin, and as a result the National League Canadiens agreed to play an exhibition game ... An ice "World Series" between the American and the National hockey leagues is not far off, Maurice Podoloff, AHL president said in Buffalo Tuesday night. Podoloff told sports writers and broadcasters that rela- tions between the two leagues have never been more harmonious, A central registry for the two was being considered . . . Joe Louis, world heavyweight boxing champion, protecting a puffed left eye, toyed Tuesday night with 181-pound New England heavyweight champ, Bernie Reynolds, of Fairfield, Conn. in a four-round exhibition bout before some 5,000 fans.

A Place to Play If; the meeting decided, a court | could not be obtained inside the city, one in Bowmanville or Whit- | | by, would certainly not be out of | | order, though it would show up a | little peculiarily if the club hap- pened to make the play-offs. | | With these questions put by the | board for the moment, the meet- [ing went on to discuss sponsor- | ship, and again the problem seem- |ed easily soluble as many names ! | were put forward. If the club is to operate in the Lakeshore group of the Inter "B" 0O.B.A, notification must be made by the 8th of December to the headquarters of the league. Osh- awa would then be in a loop con- sisting of Peterborough, Cobourg, Port Hope, Bowmanville and per- haps Lindsay. Unanimous Choice As coach, the meeting agreed upon one man for the job, Earl Deacon, a physical instructor at the OCVI, and if he is willing when approached on the matter, the boys should have the best that has ap- peared in these parts in a long while. The Lakeshore league would start its play sometime after the first week in January, with something like a home and home schedule. A stricter definition as to who is |to play, what residence rules | shall apply, how many teams will be in the playoffs and other per- tinent matters will be taken up at the next meeting of the O.B.A. That will be soon after the entry fees have been paid, and the actual members of he leagues are known. ,Encouraging Factor It is very encouraging to note the interest being shown in this winter sport that has such a tre- | mendous following below the bor- j der. Even in places like Peter- | borough and Ottawa, the game gets | very large gates. Soon Oshawa {may have a good club, and soon the public may be seein; this fastest of the ball and court team sports. A quotation. from Frank GG. | Menke's Encyclopedia of Sport | might not be out of place here. He | says, "The speed which is vital for good play, the high calibre of sportsmanship, and the grueling nature of contests, has lifted it (basketball). from = a sneered-at- sport of the late 1890's to the No. 1 sport in the rafiking of spectator games."

"We've got backs who can run as fast, pass as well, catch as well and kick as well as they can." | Hayman has a couple of sharp passers in Bruce (Bones) Coulter and Steve Nemeth. Nemeth played his best game of the year at Ham- ilton last Saturday. His trouble this year has been finding a receiver that could hang ~n to his fireballs. For ball-carriers he has an array that are potential threats including Virgil Wagner, leading : ¢ rer in the Big Four, Cunningham, Joey Pal, and Billy Bass. Black May Return To Hospital Soon sts a win," Cleveland, Nov. 10--(AP)-- Con tinual headaches may force. pitcher Don Black of Cleveland Indians to go back to the hospital soon, physi- cians reported Tuesday night. Dr. Edward Castle, team physi- cian, said X-rays will be taken to- morrow to determine whether an operation is advisable. If it is, Black will have to return, probably next week, for several weeks. Black left hospital only 4 few weeks ago in the belief that he had just about recovered from the brain haemorrhage he suffered during a game Sept. 13 with the St. Louis Browns.
