Jim Cherry who is coach of the Whitby team and also a member of the OLA, was most disappointed at the fact that the MacIntosh Tro- phy was not awarded to John Davis, the scoring champion of the Wings and the fellow who set a new all-time record for goals and points in one season of play. The award went to Don Arthurs of Brampton.
