to do a weekly column, turn- the spotlight on 'the in- activities of the Osh- awa Generals, I know that it is his desire that the hockey lic of Oshawa will in this way get some additional explanation as to why we do certain things, how various playérs feel, me their reactions to cer- in situations, thereby giv- ing the hockey public a deeper insight into the prob- lems and highlights of the Generals. - It will be our objective to t as honest and as a report of the "s activities as possible. club activity will be with- id, save some personal roblem involving a mem- r of the club, when nor- mal human privacy and ¢ommon decency should 'il. This is a continuation of our club policy where in the past we have not tried to withhold from any medium, hhewspaper or radio, club ac- tivities, which are and should be reportable. Should any reader or fan have questions, which they would like answered, and providing they are fairly put, they can be answered through this column by writ- ing: Care of The Editor, Oshawa Times, King street east, Oshawa, Ont. LET US THEN discuss in this first column the league in which the Oshawa Gen- erals play. The group is known as the OHA Provin- cial Junior "A" League, and is generally considered by far the most powerful Jun- jor "A" league in Canada. The Generals are only back in competition in this strong league starting their second season. As most hockey fans know there are eight clubs, each controlled and operated by one of the six NHL organ- izations. The operation of each club is two-fold and beneficial in two different areas. First, they supply high class hockey. entertain- ment for the fans in the var- fous communities where they operate. Even more important they supply @ moch needed source of in- eome for the buildings they play their home games out of, most.of which are com- hockey career. miss- ing hardly any time from studies, It is there- fore easy to see that the operation of an OHA Junior "A" club, is in effect, a partnership between | the community and the spon- soring NHL organization. Both parties receive bene- fits and this is an ideal situation since 'no deal is any good unless it benefits both parties. THE CLUBS in the league and their NHL sponsors shape up this way: Mont- real has two clubs, the Peterboro Petes and the Montreal Junior Canadiens; Chicago has one, the St. Catharines Black Hawks; Detroit has one, the Hamil- ton Red Wings; New York has one, the Kitchener Ran- gers; Toronto has one, the Toronto Mariboros. The Bos- ton Bruins organization has two clubs, the. Niagara Falls Flyers and our Oshawa Gen- erals. It has been said that it is difficult to sponsor two teams in the league and have both clubs successful. There is probably a good deal of logic behind this statement. Canadiens can do it much easier than anyone else because its Peterboro club in Ontario graduates to Junior "A" while the Mont- real operation is made up of almost all players from the Province of Quebec. There, the Canadiens have a stranglehold on talent be- cause of their French Cana- dian leanings. There is no question that we in the Boston organiza- tion find it a real strain to staff both Niagara Falls and Oshawa. Yet last year we were encouraged when both teams made the play-offs, while the New York and De- troit's only club ended out of the play-offs. AT THE MOMENT in this year's campaign, both Bos- ton's clubs are in the top four in the league, or in the upper half. Yours truly and most of the people in the Boston organization believe that if the Bruins are to pull out of the NHL cellar we have to work night and day _ to produce better young tal- ent. To have two OHA Jun- ior "'A" clubs yielding play- ers seems the only answer. We believe it will soon pay dividends for the Bruins. When the time comes it will be a happy day for the loyal Beantown fans. Yet I admit it is a high pressure role for the two Junior "A" teams involved, but we are thus far making it work, Next week I will discuss the executive make-up of the Oshawa Generals, its stockholders, who they are, how the club was reac- tivated, plus the cost of get- ting this club ready to play fn the new Civic Auditorium the moment it is opened.
