Most of us following their progress only hoped they might snatch a win on Friday night, really didn't think they would, but the same group had it figured that the Generals would knock off Brampton 7-Ups on Sunday afternoon and so move back into a tie for fourth place and be in line for a Metro League play- off berth. But something happened! We don't know, so we wouldn't want to condemn the Generals' management, but it was either very unfortunate or a little less than alert, when the situation was created whereby Generals played a tough league game on Friday night and then, faced with perhaps their most important game the season, on Sunday after- noon -- they were obliged to'play an unimportant exhibition game away up in Parry Sound on Saturday. This new edition of the Generals is a very young team, actually only about Juvenile-age, and to play so many games in successive nights isn't giving them much of a chance. If a promise had been made to play in Parry Sound, then some other date should have been chosen, or this one should have been postponed. The Generals should have been fresh, should have had at least one day's complete rest, before they met Brampton on Sunday afternoon in a game the Oshawa boys needed, to reach fourth position. There are no illusions about the Oshawa Generals winning the Metro League, but here is one instance when it would appear they had a good chance to pick up two valuable points and were handicapped because of an exhibi- tion game commitment. The team's administration dept. can placed three players on the first Ontario Senior League All-Star Boston Bruins. The previous high for a U.S-trained player was 20 goals, scored in 1943-44 by Cully Dahlstrom of Chicago Black Hawks. Dahistrom, another Minne- sota - born player, won the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year in 1937-38. Much of Williams' success can be traced back to the week last November when he was put on a forward line with veterans Johnny Bucyk and Murray Ol- iver. STARTS SCORING Scoreless in his first nine games up to that point; he since has racked up 22 goals in 50 games and the Williams-Oliver- Bucyk line has ranked either first or second among. the league's most productive com- binations. The league's: most productive individual last week was Chi- cago's Stan Mikita, who took over the scoring leadership with 65 points. . Official NHL statistios re- leased today show the shifty, 22-year-old centre picked up six goals and four assists for 10 points in his last three games. Ranked second--both in indi- vidual standings and in output for the week--is Detroit's Gord Howe, who increased his total by six points to 64, team, announced today by League Secretary Fred Whalley |of Oshawa. St. Thomas placed one and Oshawa the other on the five- man dream team of the new Ontario league. Balloting was by the coaches, with two points for a "'first team" vote and one for a "second team" vote. Martin Fabi, who led the! league in scoring picked up 10 first place votes as the All-Star centre. Grant Gordon, at for-| ward and Jim Bowling at! guard, both from Sarnia, were| jalso unanimous choices of the coaches. Ron Vernoche. of Sar- nia, edged out Brian Hotrum of Hamilton for the other forward position with seven votes and Brent Oldfield, captain of the Oshawa Hawks, made the dream team as the other guard, edging Ron Lemon of London. Final balloting was as follows: |FIRST ALL-STAR TEAM Centre, Martin Fabi, St. |Thomas (10); forwards: Grant }Gordon, Sarnia (10); Ron Ver- Bobby Hull of Chicago is tied |with Bucyk for third spot with \61, and Andy Bathgate of New York shares fifth spot with Ol- iver. Both have 60 points. Montreal's Jean Beliveau, who leads the league in assists with 44, ranks seventh in scor- ing with 59 points and Toronto's Frank Mahovlich is eighth with 58. SHARE GOALS LEAD The goal-scoring leadership is split three ways. Howe, Hull and Mahovlich have 30 each.

Glenn Hall, who has person- ally allowed 129. goals in 56 games, leads. Chicago has a goals - against average of 2.36 and tops the standings with 74 points, eight more than second- place Montreal. Jacques Plante of Canadiens is second with a goals-against average of 2.50 and. Toronto's Johnny Bower third with 2.67.

(AP)--Bo Belinsky. came to grip with a dilemma this winter. He had to make up his mind whether it would be business or pleasure in 1963 and he chose business--not without some reluctance. Belinsky's business is base- ball, a game which the glib- tongued Los Angeles Angels pitcher says has given him lots of promises, some fleet- ing fame and little money. Money, and lots of it, is hat Belinsky wants. He thinks he can make a lot of it if he forfeits--at least for a while--the good times he likes so much and tends to business, something he ad- mits he didn't do too much of last year. "I gotta go the way: the crow flies. Meanwhile, I gotta cool the bit," says the black- haired southpaw who speaks the bop dialogue in a low voice that the girls have found so charming in this 26- year old bachelor. "TI figure thas cat can make himself do anything he wants to do," Belinsky purred, 'and I want to become a $40,- 000 - a - year pitcher." NOT ENOUGH "I need that kind of cash to live the way I want to. I can't get along with $20,000 or $25,000 a year. Not the way I spend money. Right now, I'm making $15,000. That's only spending money 'for me. "I'm giving myself three to four years to get that $40,000 bracket. If I can't do it by that time, the heck with it. I'll just kiss this game good- bye." Having stated his ambition, ! FORESAKES FOLLIES FOR THE HILL Belinsky reflected a moment, then added: "T like fun, I like people. I like going to night clubs, taking out dates, staying out late. In order to be an out- standing player, you've got to be a loner, avoid meeting hep people, give up good times, deny yourself of lots of pleasures, 'It just isn't worth sacri- fic'ng my fun, my youth, and my personality unless you make real dough." HAD NO-HITTER Belinsky skyrocketed to fame last May by pitching a no-hitter against Baltimore. He reeled off seven-early vic- tories and appeared about to breeze into Rookie-of-the-Year honors. But thereafter he hit the headlines more with his antics off the field than his work on it. He threw a base- ball very fast and wildly and enjoyed living the same way. Despite his antics, Belinsky wen 10 games while losing 11 last year and was among the team's leaders in earned runs with a 3.56 mark. His goal for 1963 is to double the game- winning output of. his rookie season, "I went through the worst of it last year," said Bo, "and I had. a lot of straightening out to do. I wanted to come to spring training in the right frame of mind and mentally rested. So I passed up a lot of Hollywood and TV offers this winter.-I took my first va- cation in four years, had all the fun I wanted and got it out of my system." "Now I'm ready. I feel if I can get myself mentally pre- pared for each game, keep my arm in shape I can win 20, wtih a little luck." English Auto Rank To Snipe Yankees PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (AP) A warning to New York Yankee _ pitchers:: Better change your mound habits. Bob Turley, your former pitching mate, mow with Los An- geles, will be there '"'reading" you the first time the Yankees meet the Angels this year. . Turley, as manager Ralph Houk and all . Yankees can attest, has the reputation for be-' ling the best sign reader in base- ball. He has an uncanny knack of detecting certain peculiari- ties of pitchers which serve as give-away signs as to what throw. As a member of the Yankees from 1954 through 1962, one of Turnely's main functions was to observe the pitchers, both of the enemy and the Yankees. At one time or another, he spotted give-away signs by virtually all of the Yankees pitchers, habits which they immediately tried to eliminate. Turley says "'there'll be three or four guys on the Yankees T'll worry the pants off." CALLS OWN PITCHES According to Turley, Whitey Ford, the great Yankees south- paw, calls his own pitches in- stead of taking signs from the catcher. "Whitey is the only pitcher I know who does that," said Bob. "But there are few, if any, smarter pitchers in the game than Ford." "I know all of his moves. I can call every one of his pitches beforehand. I can even tell you every time he's going to use that fine pickoff play of his. Turley, striving to make a comeback, says: 'My arm feels terrific. Now it remains to be seen if I can throw strikes," added the right - hander, who came to the Angels on a con- ditional basis. If Turley makes the club, the Angels must ship a player to the Yankees.
