80 THE DARY TIMES-GATETTR, Twuesfay, March 10, 1903 git OSHAWA HOCKEY STARS REWARDED FOR EFFORTS awarded two handsome wrist watches. The above pictures show Doug Chesebrough, Club Program official, presenting a Gruen watch to Bobby Attersley, leading scorer of the Generals during the 1952-53 league season and with a mark of 88 points, fourth highest in the entire Jun- jor "A" league. The popular homebrew star received a great ovation, as did defenseman Har- On Saturday night, at the Generals and the Galt Black Hawks, a crowd of 3,000 local hockey fans cheered lustily as two members of the Generals were rewarded for their fine ef- forts this season. In connection with a special ballot, operated through the hockey club's official program, the Gruen Watch Com- any, through the courtesy of Felt Bros. Jewellers of this city, ry Sinden, also shown above, ac- cepting his Gruen watch, as "most popular player" of the Oshawa team, an honor decided by the ballots of the program patrons during the entire season. Mrs. Reg. Mills, 159 Oshawa Blvd., was the winner of the Gruen watch, won by a draw, the winning ballot being drawn by Harry Sinden. Photos by Dutton--Times Studio == "EVERYTHING FROM SOUP TO NUTS" Oshawa Smith Truckmen ousted Stouffville Clippers, 1952 OHA Senior "B" champions, without losing a single game in their best-of- seven series. Gerry Scott, the league's ace scorer, nicked the first goal here last night midway through the first period, Jack Thaler added one a couple of minutes later and the pattern had been seb. Smiths won the first, 3rd, 4th and' 5th games of the series with the second contest, played in Stouffville, ending in a 2-2 tie. Jack Eatough, victim of Oshawa's 2-goals in 15 seconds on Saturday night, turned in a yecman chore here last night but he couldn't hold the determined Truckers off single-handed. Ernie Dickens was the big bulwark In Oshawa's defensive structure last night and the way the Truckers are rolling right now, they're going to bg tough to beat along the trail to the OHA Senior "B" championships, It could be that their next series will open here on Saturday night. Kingston Goodyears staged an upricing last night in Belleville, whipping the Glen Roys 8-3 right on their own ice. Kingston now leads that series with three wins and a tie in six games. The 7th game is in Kingston on Thursday night and if Goodyears win that one--and they should do, at home--then Kingsion will open their series with Oshawa Truckmen here at eight- thirty on Saturday night. It would be a fine break for the Smith Truckmen and along with the local hockey fans who want to see a game on Saturday night, we hope it works out that way, Oshawa Generals travel to Galt tonight and don't be surprised it they pull off a win, Frankly, this corner is expecting the boys to do just that. They should lave won the first game in Galt, even the Galt officials admit that their Black Hawks were fortunate to tie it up with just 76 seconds left to play and also fortunate that the Generals didn't score one or two themselves in the over- time period, After getting the break, Galt roared back full of pep and almost made it 2-0 on the series with a win here Saturday night but a gallant bunch of battlers rallied from a 4-0 deficit to make it a 4-4 tle. This series is not on a point basis, it's a regular Junior "A" style playoff, 3-out-of-5 and means that one team must win three games to win and finish the series. If the series is still unfinished at the end of five games, then the 6th game will be played here in Oshawa on Monday night of next week. We thought some of the Generals were terrific here on Saturday night, Roger Mal- sonneuve with his speed and two goals, Bobby Mader with his reliable up-and-down patrol of his wing. He's the best two-way hockey player the Generals have and one of the best in the league. His style reminds us of Kennie Smith and Kennie made the Boston Bruins with the same kind of diligent attention to two-way hockey. Mike Cirka is improving with every game and with Bob Attersiey starting to hand out some solid body-checks and Bud Hillman play- ing improved hockey, the entire Oshawa team is stronger now than at any time this season. Up front Bob Attersley continues to carry the fast mail but Bill Stewart and Stan Parker are also doing their share now. We liked the way Stewart started to "wade in" on Saturday night. The fourth game of this series is here on Thursday night and it should be another thriller. Don't miss it!

DIAL 5-4332 First Game Of GM Semi-Finals Ends In 2-2 Tie At the Bowmanville Arena on Monday evening, Parts and Serv- ice Central Warehousers and Buick opened their semi-final series with a 2-2 tie game. This was the first of a two out of three series and the next games are scheduled for this Friday and next Monday eve- nings at the same place. The other series between Oldsmobiles and Pontiacs will soon get under way with the winners then engaging each other. Last season Parts lead the pack all season only to be knocked off in the first series of money play. The Buicks had a full team this time and gave Parts a much tougher tussle than in their last meeting of the schedule which the Partsmen won 7-3. This win might have mislead the Parts team as they were hard pressed right from the start. Buicks jumped into the lead at the 4.18 mark of the first period as Judge dinted the netting cn a nice pass from Hicks. After missing several times at both ends. Parts finally knotted the score as Graham banged the rubber home on McCabe's rebound after a nice rush at the 6.28 point of the period. There was no further scoring this period but both teams were robbed by the rival goalies who were both in good form. Buicks received the only penalty as Hewett was thumb- ed off for roughing. In the second stanza both teams set a terrific pace and as a re- sult there were several break- aways and the netminders were given some real work to.do. Play also began to roughen up a bit and from then to the end of the game it looked as if the referees might lose control of the game. Nevertheless the only penalty of the period went .to Pa as La- Roux was sent off but damage resulted. Just before the second hand ticked off the end of the period Buicks again went ahead 2-1 as Hicks scored on passes from Judge and Hawes on a nice play inside the Servjcemen's blue line area. The last period saw the most strenuous play of the game as Parts fought for the equalizer and as the penalties earned did not come, the boys on both sides really gor, Finally at the 10.19 mark Bill Berry took a passout at the centre red line from McCabe and raced in on the Buicks' goalie to deke ED a Ag fant finish teams deadlocked at two all. The goalies on both teams ou ding and the score could easily have reached double figures had it not been for them. There were no real stars as all the play- ers on each team tried hard to get his team ahead in series. Parts were without the services of Jack Dell who was presented with a son by his wife at Oshawa General Hospital Monday morn- ing. Congratulations are offered from his teammates who will be glad to have him back in the next e. stepped into one another with vi- |Rotar BEST CLIPPERS 6-3 Smith Truckmen Win Semi-Final From Stouffville Without A Loss Oshawa Smith Truckmen won their best-of-seven semi-final series with Stouffville Clippers without a defeat. ® Last night at the Oshawa Arena, the. Truckmen downed the Clippers 6-3 before a good crowd to take the Easterh Ontario OHA Senior "B" league set four games to none with one tied. The Oshawa crew will now await a winner from the eastern section of their league. Kingston and Belle- ville are engaged in a semi-final series at the present time, and if the series is concluded this Thurs- day, as is expected, the first game of the championship finals will be played here in Oshawa this Satur- day night. CLAMPED DOWN Last night Referees Andy Belle- mer and Ken Holmeshaw gave no- tice in the first few minutes tifat they'd stand for no foolishness. They dished up four minor penal- ties in the first two minutes. There were cnly four more in the entire game! Halfway through the first period Oshawa opened the scoring. They added another a few minutes later. Stouffville broke the scoring ice while the Truckers were short- hanced in the last minute of -the frame for a 2-1 count. The middle perie?® saw the Clip- pers tie the score 2-2. Jack Thaler scored his second unassisted goal to make it 3-2 for Oshawa and then near the end of the pericd the Osh- awans tallied again for a 4-2 lead. The locals counted twice more in the last period for a 6-2 lead be- fore the Clippers scored their final goal. FIRST PERIOD Gerry Scott didn't actually know where the puck was going when he saw Frank Hooper lob one in from a deep left wing snot. "Hoop" got the puck on a trailer pass from Ernie Dickens at the 11-minute mark of the first period. Scott was standing with his back to the goal and" just ticked Hoop- er's shot so that it changed direc- Kingston ors. Lead Series BELLEVILLE -- Kingston Good- years defeated Belleville Glen Roys, 8-3, here last night to take a 3-2 lead in their OHA Senior "B" group semi-final series. The first game ended in a 5-5 tie, Kingston took a 2-1 lead in the first period, added three in the middle period and then outscored the homesters, 3-2, in the final 20 minutes. The winners were sparked by sensational netminding by Ken Johnston, who time and time again turned the Glen Roys aside on what seemed would be sure mark- ers, particularly in the first half of the second period, when Belle- ville held a wide margin in terri- torial plays but couldn't score. Ted Nicholson and Luke DeLuca each scored two goals for the win- ners, while Don Murray, Mucker, McKeown and Ken Partis got the others. Ted DeGray and Red Doran each claimed a goal and an assist for Glen Roys, while Sam Mulhol- land registered the odd one. The seventh game will be played in Kingston Thursday night.

That made Jack Thaler did some great fore- checking to push himself into the clear with the puck just two min- utes later. He speared the puck ahead of himself to beat the lone remaining enemy player and then bested Eatough on a low shot. Thaler's penalty for tripping in the last minute of play left Stouff- ville in an advantageous spot and they made good when Ron Bell flicked' the puck in to Polly Min- ton standing to the left of Oshawa goaler Jack Naylor. Minton deked Jack and then fed Jack Stark, standing to the right of the twine. Stark flipped in the rubber for a 2-1 score, At the three-minute mark of the second frame, Nick Bangay bashed home a corner pass-out from Min- ton and Stark to tie the game 2-2. But just a minute later Jack Thaler broke loose again, Streaking in on right wing he clipped the puck into Eatough's pads. Eatough had come out to cover the play... and his rebound of the low shot went right back to the oncoming Thaler. Jack played it neatly behind Ea- tough into the twine for the 3-2 goal. NEAT BACK-HANDER Late in the period, Gerry Scott set Fragk Hooper loose, on the left boards. Frank saw Bill Peters make for the pivot spot in front of Ea- tough and so fed the rushing de- fenceman. Bill cut across in front of Eatough and back-handed the puck beautifully into the lower far corner, That was the insurance marker, 4-2. . No penalties were called in the final period, though things did get rough for a while, Then the boys felt it was all over . . . but not un- til Frank Hooper potted the puck on Scott's pass, and Bob Holden made it 6-2 when he caught Ea- tough off-balance with a rebound pass from behind the net. _Btouffville got their last goal late in the period when Ron Bll slipped in a long shot through a maze of players in front of the Oshawa net. Again acting the part of a 60- minute man, Captain Ernie Dick- ens of the Truckers was tremend- ous on defence. His playing in shunting forwards to the corners, or 'stopping shots like a second goaler gave the fans lots to cheer about.

Although there were not as many entries as had been an- ticipated there were plenty of well maichea games, anu some hard- iought battles. 'the mixed doubles, mei's doubles 'and ladies' doubles were started and wil 'continue weunesday and Thursaay nights. Wednesday night will also see the Men's Singles started and on Thursday night the Veteran's class will start. Expected to head the list of the veterans doubles are Russ McAllister of the Boulevard Club and Stewart Lawson of the Strathgowan Club. These games should be most interesting to the spectators. As the years have progressed we find that all clubs in the league have improved their game and a much better type of game is likely to be seen at this year's tourney than we had a couple of years ago when the Invitation Tournament was instigated, The final games of the tourna- ment will be played on Friday evening and will be followed by a dance to which the public are in- vited. Spectators will be welcome any evening to witness the games. First Round E. Quantrill, L. Sleightholm, Whitby; J. Medland, N. Harris, Brooklin--15-11, 15-9.
