SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' To Open N #1 SURE PROOF of the approach of the winter season was evidenced last night in the large turnout of mem- bers of the Oshawa Curling Club, at the annual "fall meeting," where plans for the coming season were out- lined and the curlers heard reports from the club offi= cers and directors, as to what steps had already been taken to assure a successful 1959-60 season. Committee chafrmen gave their reports, the members learned that the club ig to hold its official opening on Thursday, Nov- ember 6th, and following the general meeting, the skips held their annual session, voting in the skips who will select rinks and compete in the first club competition, in a special section, to decide which two rinks will rep- 5 the Oshawa Club in Ontario Tankard and which t in Governor-General's Cup playdowns. Once again the local curling club will operate with a capacity mem- bership, this in spite of a lot of resignations and an in- creased quota of members. In all, about 75 new mem- bérs will join the Oshawa Curling Club this year and in spite of this increase, they will have a waiting list of almost 50 members, most of whom will probably have to "sit out" one year, while awaiting openings. Last night's NHL action saw a couple of 4-1 scores régistered. Detroit Red Wings continued their sizzling undefeated pace as NHL league-leaders with a 4-1 score over the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens gave Chidago Black Hawks the same sort of treatment. This win moved Canadiens up into second place in the Nat- ional Hot League standing, only two points behind the pace-shiag od Wings, with Leafs in third spot with eight points and Boston fourth with seven. So far, Black Hawks and 'the N.Y. Rangers are far down in the standing but of rse, it's still a very young season. Rangers are in Toronto this Saturday night and on Sun- day, they are at home to the Black Hawks, so the cellar- position spot will be hotly contested this week-end. BRIGHT BITS: -- Union Rod and Gun Club will start their monthly meetings for hunting and fishing en- thusiasts, this Sunday evening, 7.30 o'clock, at the UAW Hall, with the feature being a special film showing the training of a Labrador (Retriever) pup . . .

DON NEWCOMBE may no longer be one of the top pitchers in the major leagues but he proved this season that as pitchers go--he's the best hitter of the National League group . . . TORONTO LEAFS are talking of a possible trade deal, on the grounds they have a surplus of defense material. Look~ fu last year's records and the team's scoring sta- dsties for this short season, we'd suggest that Leafs haven't got any defensemen to spare--in fact, one real good outstanding, puck-carrying, rib-rocking rearguard, dopears to be just what they are lacking . . . BALMY ac Marines pulled an upset in the Junior Confer- rugby football playoffs, when they defeated Lake- ghore Bears in the sudden-death semi-final game.

ORFU PICTURE CLEARER In the Ontario Rugby Football Union senior series, the picture is less clouded. The three playoff teams have been decided and it's only a question of who meets whom. Kitchener - Waterloo Dutchmen and Sarnia Bears are tied for second place, two points back of London Lords. Sarnia plays Lon- don Saturday in the final game and a win would give the Bears a tie for the leadership. eight. SPORTS IN BRIEF In Front THREE 'LAKES, Wis.

Don Newcombe Good Hitter NEW YORK (AP) -- Cincin- 's Don Newcombe continued to display his prowess at bat in 1950 but his hitting supremacy among was challenged by a pair of American Leaguers, Camilo Pascual of . Washington and Jim Perry of Cleveland. Big Newk finished with a .308 statistics released by The Asso- ciated Press Thursday, to top the National League's hitting pitch- ers. Pascual, a .158 batter in 1958, led the American League with .302 and Perry, a rookie, was next with .300. The leaders were based on 50 or more at bats. Newcombe, the major league leader in 1958 with a .361 aver- age, boosted his lifetime mark five points to .275 in nine sea- sons. The 33-year-old lefthanded swinger compiled 32 hits, most among hurlers, in 104 trips. Among his hits were two dou- bles and three homers. The Dodgers' Don Drysdale, who tied Newcombe's National League record by hitting seven home runs in 1958, again topped the majors In that department with four homers. He also batted in 12 runs that produced only a .165 average. Jerry Casale of the Boston Red Sox had the most homery in the American League, ree. president Joe Cronin and ex- plored the possibility of becom. ing a 10-club baseball league. Cronin made no statement before leaving for Boston immediately after the meeting, and a com- mittee member said Cronin wished to confer with baseball commissioner Ford Frick before Habs' Guns Will Travel By THE CANADIAN PRESS Montreal ' big guns appear to have hit their scoring stride and Detroit Red Wings' goalie Terry Sawchuk continues to sparkle as the National Hockey Lasgue heads into its third week- Veterans Maurice Ric hard, Bernie Geoffrion, Jean Beliveau and ny seem to have got over their early season blues--of all which is good news for the Canadiens who are after their fifth consecutive Stanley Cup.
