A = > : 5 yr EVERYTHING FROM SOUP TO NUTS There are a lot of bewildered sport fans in the city this morning and the cause is the report of that 9-1 shellacking the Smith Truckmen took down in Kingston last night when the Goodyears of the Limestone City evened up the best-of-seven Senior "B" playoff series at one game apiece, in no uncertain fashion, Obviously, the "Truckers" had a bad night and they missed the services of ace centre Gerry Scott, out with a bruised ankle but just the same, it appears that silver-thatched Mike Rodden wasn't just whistling a tune when he predicted that the Truckmen would find Godyears a lot different team from the pne Oshawa handled quite easily in most of the league games. The Truck- men go back there on Wednesday for the third game and the fourth game of the series will be here in Oshawa on Saturday night. Since the Truckmen lost the toss for the "extra game" in this best-of-seven series, it means they'll have to win all their home games and at least one in Kingston, if they are to survive the round and advance fn quest of the OHA title. It begins to loom as a hectic series. Bill Veeck really started something, didn't he? The St. Louis fans are up in arms About it--many of them had contributed to a financial promotion which Veeck launched some months ago to assure the Browns of a contending team, Then after he had most of the stock bought up from former shareholders, he came up with this idea of moving his club to Baltimore, However, the American League turned "thumbs down" on the idea and now it's "expected that Boston Braves may franchise to Milwaul also be refused permission to move their One thing is certain, it could be with television and other competition existing today, there is not room for two "big league" ball clubs in St. Louis and Boston but Phila- delphia is hanging on and of course Chicago and New York aren't in the same boat but just the same, Veeck's idea is not without merit. However, his one-man blitzkrieg is a bit too rough for the other baseball moguls to swallow, without being consulted--hence the "thumbs down"! ced the Oshawa Smith Truckmen 9-1 before some 3,400 fans. The victory knots the best-of- seven OHA Senior "B" Eastern Ontario championship series at one game apiece. The third game will be played Wednesday in Kingston with the fourth game back in Osh- awa on Saturday night. The one-sided win was all the more stunning when one considers that the Truckmen won the first game of the set 8-3. The locals have only been beaten worse on one occasion . . , a 12-3 loss in Orillia which is better left un- questioned on the shelf. NAYLOR STEADY Hero of the piece from an Osh- awa standpoint was stocky Jack Naylor in the nets. He faced 21 enemy shots in the first period to but seven on Ken Johnson. Jack let three by him. The shots were even in the sec- ond frame . . . 11 on Kingston and 10 on Oshawa. The locals had one goal and Kingston two, one scored while the local's were short-hand- ed. That left the score 5-1 for King- ston going into the third. The Goodies outshot Oshawa 15- 9 in that period and outscored the locals 4-0 to win the game 9-1 and have a shots on goal margin of 46-27, Skating and shooting with out- standing accuracy was Captain George MacGregor of the winners. He potted three goals, one in the second period and two in the final frame. Another hot-shot for the Kingston crew was Al '"Duke'"' DeLuca, the Kirkland Lake flash who scored two goals and assisted on a third. Don Murray got one goal and aid- ed on three others. FACE-OFF PLAYS All three goals in the first period were scored as a direct result of face-off play. The first and the third, counted by DeLuca saw him take a pass from Don Murray and clunk it home. The second scored by Murray was a three-way play with the pass from the face- off going back to the blue-line and then in to where it was pushed home. » GEORGE MacGREGOR « + « scored three goals DON MURRAY + « + One goal, 3 assists Jack Thaler, one of the few Osh- awa forwards to look good at times, had a solo chance at Johnson, but missed the long side with his shot. MacGregor came right back and Naylor outguessed him at the Osh- awa end. The first 10 minutes of the sec- ond period were the best for the Truckers. Their passes clicked and they got one goal. This occured when Ernie Dickens fed Ron Nel- son in front of the net. Ron shot and the rebound came out off a falling Johnson, Jack Thaler pick- ed up the puck and topped into the twine over the recumbent goal- er's form. A : Three Oshawa penalties killed that spark around the half-way point in the period and saw Osh- awa short - handed when White grabbed a loose puck to the side of the net after Johnny Myke had hit Naylor with a shot, White: shot from a difficult angle. The puck gt the rear of Naylor's pads as he lay on the ice and caromed into the net. FIRST OF TRIO George MacGregor's first goal and the last of the second period was a terrific solo rush in which he skated out his own end and beat the whole Oshawa team by splitting the defence. He drilled the puck low to the left-hand corner to make it 51. He zoomed in around the defence on right wing to open the last period with a Kingston goal. While Kingston was a man short, Hooper doodled with the puck once too often 'in his own end and Joe Watts poke - checked the rubber away and skated in to beat Naylor and make the score 7-1. DeLuca's pass set Murray and Nicholson in alone ,on Naylor a minute later and they made short work of the goal, with Nicholson finally flipping it home. MacGregor waited till the last minute of the game before securing his third goal. Partis fed him on the open wing and George skirted the defence once again and shot low to the far-side to beat Naylor and make the final score 9-1.

HOWE NEAR MARK Leafs Need Super Strength To Gain Last Playoff Spot MONTREAL (CP)--Two tough assignments focus attention on the National Hockey League as the teams swing into the final week of the regular schedule. In order of toughness of attain- ment, they are: A playoff spot for Toronto Maple Leafs and a goal- scoring record for Gordie Howe of Detroit Red Wings. The Leafs will need outside help : and a superhuman effort of their BRIGHT BITS: --Joe Walcott is giving himself a bit of a left-handed build up when hesstates that Rocky Marciano can punch harder than Joe Louis but then Jersey Joe didn't face the Brown Bomber in the days when he was tossing his best punches . . . The OHA has announced changes in the Barrie-Marlboro series with the 5th game in Barrie on Wednesday and then back in Toronto on Saturday afternoon with the 7th game, if necessary, in Barrie next Monday night . . . They don't have to hurry even this week, because thanks to Oshawa's full-length go with Galt, the Galt-St. Mike's series will not be over before Sunday afternoon--and likely not then. Second game is in Galt on Friday night . . . Ralph Kiner is reporting to the Bucs and states he is satis- fied that he won his argument. And who knows--maybe he did! . . . Toronto Leafs arg hanging on the ropes and they must win over Chicago tomorrow night. We don't figure that either Red Wings or Canadiens will help the Leafs much however . . . In the meantime, have you arranged to attend the big night at OCVI tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. The OShawa "Red Raiders" are holding their "Meet The Coach Night" with pictures of the last Grey Cup final and other feature at- tractions. Looks like a big night and one every local grid fan should attend . . . Over at the Oshawa Curling Club tomorrow night, the city officials and curlers will pay honor to the OCVI rink that won the Canadian Schoolboy Curling Championship for Ontario, with a banquet, presentations, etc. Another big night!

As a result the company will give the Cats equipment. and advertis- ing in 1953 but players will have to draw crowds to get paid.

SILVER COLLECTION! own if the yare to displace other Boston Bruins or Chicago Black Hawks. The Bruins and Hawks are tied for third place with 65 points each. The Leafs, in fifth place and currently outside the playoff fold, have 59. Detroit clinched first place March 8 and Montreal Canadiens clinched second last Saturday. New York Rangers are out of the run- ning. The Leafs' big test comes Wed- nesday when the Ha visit Tor- onto. If their playoff chances are still alive next Sunday, the Leafs | will get another chance when they play that night in Boston. In be- tween those games they meet Montreal and New York. Even if they defeat the Bruins and Hawks, the Leafs must depend on other teams to administer spankings to one or both. There are no Boston-Chicago games left, so a cut-throat affair is ruled out. The Bruins have four games left --against New York, Detroit, Mont- real and Toronto. The Hawks have three to go--against Toronto, De- troit and New York. If there are ties on points at the finish, the team with the grea- ter number of wins gets the higher placing, If there is still a tie the call goes to the team with the fewer losses, If this doesn't break the deadlock, total number of goals for the season decides the issue. The task Gordie Howe has set himself gets no easier as the sea- son nears its close. He has scored 47 goals and is aiming at the single-season record of 50, set by Montreal's Maurice Richard.in the 50-game schedule of the 1945-46 season. In the three games left, the pres- sure on, Howe must do better than 7, his average in 67 games. But the big fellow may break loose in any of them, The teams 'he will face are Boston, Chicago and Montreal. There could be a dramatic finish to the season if Howe breaks or ties the record--or fails to do so-- at Detroit Olympia Sunday night. The visitors will be the Canadiens, with Richard himself in action. With his 47 goals and 46 assists, Howe is far in front as individual point-getter with 93 points, well ahead of his own record of 86. He picked up only one goal and one assist in four games last week. Mis teammate Ted Lindsay had two assists to bring his total to 70. Richard, with two goals and two assists in three games, took over third place with 60 points, followed by Wally Hergesheimer of New York whose 1-1 count brought his total to 58. Only an 'unprecedented three- game avalanche of goals can dis- place Terry Sawchuk of the Wings as low-average goalie for the sea~ son. His average of 1.89, com- pared with his 1.94 last season and 1.98 the season before. Gerry Mc- Neil of Montreal ranks second with 2.10 The side-show attraction to the season's finish is the penalty "championship." Lindsay has ser- ved 109 minutes, Richard 108 and Fern Flaman of Toronto 106. Standings . W LT F A Pts.

Although the football séason is some months away, the Oshawa Red Raiders are already laying the ground work for the 1953 campaign. The Red Raiders, who are the city's representatives in the Inter- mediate ORFU this year, hope to have a strong entry and the execu- tive have not left a stone unturn- ed in their hunt for top gridiron talent, The club has made arrange- ments to have Jack Wedley, for- mer Argonaut star, to coach the club this: season.

Jersey Joe Walcott Sees Title Victory ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP)--Jer- sey Joe Walcott rates heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano a bet- ter one-punch hitter than Joe Louis was but the old fellow is confident he'll even the score with Marciano April 10. "I'm going to be the first man who lost the heavyweight cham- pionship, to regain it," said Wal- cott. "I'm going to try and do it in the first round if I can. But I'm going to be prepared to go all the way if necessary." There is a different atmosphere about Walcott's training camp in nearby Pleasantville than there was before the first fight with Marci- ano Sept. 23. Walcott and manager Felix Boc- chicchio thought they had a cinch in the crude, powerful challenger. The rude awakening came in the 13th round at Philadelphia when 3.52 Rocky finished off Joe with a right. Make Sure Your N 1951 1951 2-tone paint. Outside sun visor 1950 190 KING ST.
