(CP Wirephoto) Ti-Cat Rally Downs Argos; Alouettes Tie Rough Riders By THE CANADIAN PRESS Frank Cosentino, relegated to coach Jim Trimble's bullpen only one week ago, made an out- standing debut as a relief pitcher Sunday when he picked up a win by throwing only two strikes. Fireman Frank relieved starter Joe Zuger in the third quarter at Hamilton and his strikes were touchdown passes to Dick Eastériy and Garney Henley. They gave Hamilton Tiger- Cats a comeback 27-24 win over Toronto Argonauts and sole pos- session of first place in the East- ern Football Conference. And it would be permanent ession unless the Canadian 'ootball League rules in Ottawa Rough Riders' favor in the boad room.

One of the Als' scoring plays, a touchdown by Marv Luster, was a weird play on which Ut- tawa's Whit Tucker deflected a Montreal pass against the Ot- tawa crossbar and into Luster's hands in the end zone. ARGUE INCOMPLETE The Riders are arguing that a pass is incomplete if the ball hits the goalposts on/ crossbar and Montreal's touchdown shouldn't have counted, Because they managed only a day. Cosentino had been Hamilton's No. 1 replacement for injured Bernie Faloney until the club went into a three-loss tailspin.

Stampeders Lead By Single Point By THE CANADIAN PRESS The battle for first place in the Western Conference is no closer to solution after a week- end that saw both contenders come from behind to score vic- tories. Calgary Stampeders traded touchdowns with British Colum- bia Lions and eventually pulled away with a 36-28 win and a slender one-point lead over Win- nipeg Blue Bombers, who needed three last-quarter touch- downs to dispose of Edmonton Eskimos 30-20. The loss dumped the Esks from the playoffs for the first time since 1949. The race continues tonight with the Bombers in Regina to play the third-place Saskatche- wan Roughriders and to pick up one of the two games they have in hand over Calgary. Calgary and B.C. locked in a head-on struggle--with quarter scores of 7-7, 14-14 and 28-28-- before Larry Robinson took an l-yard touchdown pass from 'quarterback Eagle Day to grab the lead and Jim Furlong salted the game away with a single. Besides his touchdown, Robin- son booted five converts. But the turning point came as the third aie opened when Harvey ylie ran back the B.C. kick- off 102 yards for a touchdown, FLEMING REPLIES | B.C.'s dazzling halfback Wil-| lie Fleming returned the favor three plays later when he found running room on a_ halfback draw from quarterback Joe Kapp, eluded the Calgary de- fence for 97 yards and gave the Lions a 28-21 lead. Along with Robinson and Wy- lie, Calgary got touchdowns from Lovell Coleman, Ed Buch- anan and Pete Manning. Fleming accounted for three B.C. scores while Nub Beamer, who took over as leading ground-gainer in the conference during the game, added a fourth. George Grant booted three converts and a single. In Edmonton, Winnipeg trailed 20-9 early in the fourth quar- ter after Edmonton's Tommy- Joe Coffey had gone for two touchdowns and a pair of con- verts and quarterback Jackie Parker scored a third touch- down.

At more than one point, the five-hour session marking the federation's annual meeting ap- peared Po one in be hodge - unrestrain shouting and char, bitter threats. Two delegates announced amid the tumult that they were going to walk out, indicating they would pull their affiliated commissions from the national structure. But they stayed and no more was said about it. JUNIOR FOOTBALL By ALLAN BAILEY It's all over for the Oshawa Hawkeyes, this year in the On- tario Junior Football Confer. ence. -- But not before the local squad staged one of the great- est comebacks in this city's junior gridiron history, winning three of their last four games and winding up the season with \four wins and five losses. | The clincher that ousted the |Hawkeyes from the playoffs was a game Saturday afternoon, between Scarborough Rams and Toronto Invictus, Had Invictus won, they would have brought about. a three-way tie for fourth place in the standings between themselves, Scarborough and Oshawa for the final playoff berth. This would have claimed by the Hawkeyes, with a better points for and against average. But, the Rams downed: Invic- tus 27-6 Saturday to advance into the playoffs with the league leaders, Lakeshore Bears. The other sudden-death series pits the second-place Bur- lington Braves against the third place Niagara Falls Tiger Cats When the Hawkeyes opened their campaign with a 13-8 win over Kitchener - Waterloo in an exhibition tilt, fans predicted a good year for the local club, perhaps in sheer desperation, treated to a winning junior foot- ball club. But their hopes soon faded when the Hawkeyes dropped the league opener to Invictus by a heartbreaking 14-12 score, with the ball ending up on the Toronto one-yard line as the gun sounded the end of the game. : Then problems began to hit Oshawa camp as they dropped because they had never been) club: Hawkeyes Miss Playoffs But Had Good ason ih and Lakeshore. Some of their standout players found work committments in- terfering with football practice and games, while high school classes and college took its toll too. But Coach Tony Andrejicka worked hard to iron out these difficulties and moulded a team for the last half of the sched- ule that was tops in every cate- gory. They defeated Balmy Beach Marines 19-7, knocked off Nia- gara Falls 24-9, lost a close one to Burlington by a 20-15 score and closed the season with 26-14 win over the Marines. No one oan deny that the players did a magnificent job Saarh been/| this year, but a good deal of the credit perhaps should go to the coaches, Tony jAndrejicka, Dunc Brodie and Don Hart. They picked the club up from its perennial losing position, make it into a strong contender. Not bad work for one season. Other club officials, Manager Joe Bosco, Trainer George "Geordie' Easton, and "jacks of all trades", Harold Brain and Arn MacDonald, also deserve a pat on the back for their work with the team this season. -- Manager Bosco is optimistic about the Hawkeyes' chances next year. He predicts that they will be among the two top $s. ; "We proved this year that we belong in the league," he said, "T think the big difference this year was the fact that the boys came to play football.' So, the Hawkeyes must do what many teams in the world of sport must do, "wait until another year." Lucky winner of the two Grey Cup tickets in the Hawkeyes' season ticket draw, was Ruth their next games to Burlington, Chomey, Victory street, Ajax, When it was all over, mum- bled appologies were sheepishly exchanged by some of the prin- cipals. But in some quarters ill- feeling undeniably remained. Giving rise to much of the dis- order -was the controversy |shrouding Canada's heavyweight championship. The deliberations leading to the presidential elec- tion also stirred up tempers and angry words. JUMPS UP, SHOUTING Magistrate Martin Haley of Dartmouth, N.S., a member of the Halifax athletic commission, jumped to his feet shouting on Ermen Fight Boss Of Canadian Boxing a contract he signed to fight Chuvalo in Toronto Sept. 18, 1961. The pair hooked up earlier in three 12-round title bouts at Montreal with Cleroux winning the first and last. IS STILL FIGHTING The 24-year-old Montrealer, however, has fought a number of times while on the WBA points of order and threatened to leave unless he was heard. Once he went as far as the door before turning back. In that instance he was backed by Dun- can Hines of Sydney, N.S., who proclaimed he too would walk out unless order was restored. The fedération, on a motion by Haley that led to more than an hour of caustic haggling, de- cided to give heavyweight champ Bob Cleroux of Montreal an ultimatum. Fi He has 90 days to defend his championship in Toronto against George Chuvalo--or the title will be declared vacant. Cleroux was suspended a year ago by the World Boxing Asso- » appearing in smaller Quebec centres where there are no recognized athletic commis« sions. ,Merv McKenzie of Toronto, an official of the Ontario Athletic commission, said Cleroux's oo- manager Al Bachman of New York has 'made a mockery of boxing in Canada" with the in rate fighters to meet Cleroux," said McKenzie, a three - time president of the federation. xempt presumably ciation for failing to comply with fighters as Archie Moore.
