6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, February 26, 1965 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell i SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' OSHAWA GENERALS, Niagara Falls and Kitchener each received a helping hand in last night's OHA Junior "'A" action, and even though none of the three was in action, each had their position in the league standing improved. Hamilton Red Wings, still having a mathematical chance of catching sixth place and a playoff berth, held Toronto Marlboros to a 3-3 tie. That brought Marlies even with Niagara Falls in games played and the Flyers have a four-point lead, on the top rung. Kitch- ener got their little boost when Peterborough knocked off St. Catharines 4-1. This cuts down St. Kitts' game-in-hand mar- gin to one game and Kitchener only trails the sixth-place slot by two points. St. Kitts have to win all their remaining five games now to pass the Generals. STORIE PARK, one of this city's more active Neighbor- hood Park Associations, held their annual "Sports Day' Sat- urday afternoon, in their own fine clubhouse and once again it was a gala affair. The residents of the Storie Park area not only work hard to operate and sponsor their boys and girls in every available "Park" sports activity, but they also complete their job with a flourish. Chairman "Pete" Muzik headed their banquet and presentation of prizes and the pro- gram covered a wide variety of honors, Leading the way in the series of happy items, was the presentation of handsome jackets, suitably crested, to the Storie Park Midget softball boys, 1964 City Champions, who also received crests from Osh- awa Minor Softball Association vice-president Fred Kitchen. Park Chairman Dave Bayus was the most popular man in the room, as he passed out two more sets of jackets to Storie Park's championship teams, their Bantam boys, Kiwanis Bantam Leagiie titlists last summer and the Storie Park Pee Wee boys, winners of the City Pee Wee Tournament honors. THE PARADE to the head table, for various trophies and prizes was not limited to softball champions, by any means, "Vinny" Walker, former Storie Park stalwart, came in from Port Perry to preserit his own trophy to the "most valuable and popular player' on the Bantam team -- Ron Parfitt was the proud winner. Pauline Gibson, of the Midget girls' team, was named winner of the similar award. Coach Jack Cameron presented the same MV and PP award to Billy Taylor of the Midget team and on the Pee Wee team, a brother, Ted Taylor, was the winner. Lynda Taylor presented special gifts to sports chairman Dave Bayus and Barry MacKenzie, key workers of the park, also to Mr. and Mrs. Mille, who operated the cham Andrea Ogden, Larry Wright George DeMille and Jim De- pionship Bantam boys team. and Jim Parsons received awards for their success in the city track and field meet. Jim Irving also got special honors for his Pee Wee softball tourney success. Midget team manager Jack Logeman announced that next year, his boys would be leaving the Park sponsorship, since they were advancing to Juvenile ranks. Danny O'Shea, of Oshawa Gene: head table guests. Danny, in a the boys to appreciate what the Wendell Brewster, of ORC; Bob Marshall and tals, were two of the special fine, short speech, reminded adults were doing for thém. "Pat" McGarrity, also ORC; Bob Andrews, ORC Sports Chairman, all spoke briefly, in similar vein, also congratulating the champions and voicing praise for the Storie Park operations. Bob Andrews thanked the ladies for the fine banquet. And the "big" speaker for the event was 'Big Bob" Grier, who gave the boys some good ideas on softball in general and a few fine tips, pitchers. Yep -- for the they run a good show, at Storie Park ! Skeet Club Holds Annual Elections Members and friends of the Oshawa Skeet Club enjoyed the new accommodations of the Oshawa Civic Auditorium, Wed- nesday evening, when they held their annual dinner meeting in one of the new meeting rooms. President Herman Sweetman welcomed the guests and visi- ters and outlined the newly adopted plans for grounds and field expansion. Most members present were in accord that in view of the ever increasing de- mand on their present two-field layout at North Oshawa, it would be only a question of time until the present facilities would be inadequate, to cope with shooting demands. Mr. Sweetman also pointed out that the club membership had also expanded this past year, thus adding further to the problem. REVIEWS ACTIVITIES Allan Wood, the Club Activi- ties Committee chairman, pre- sented his annual report, which outlined the various programs that district shooters and mem- bers had enjoyed during the past year. He stated that Osh- awa Skeet Club is considered the "best and strongest club of comparable size in Canada." To qualify this statement, he point- ed out the rise in interest and shooting during the past three years. Mr. Wood presented statis- ties that showed that in 1962, 1659 rounds of shells were used in various types of shooting This figure jumped to 2420 in 1963 and the phenominal fig- 1964. This increase more than justifies immediate considera- tion of expansion for the club. Mr. Wood concluded his report with the fact that Oshawa is still in first place in the Lower Lakes Skeet League, a spot that they have guarded with some extraordinary shooting over the past few months. ELECT DIRECTORS Following the dinner, elec- tions were held with the follow-| ing directors being elected for the coming year: Doug. Bran- ton, Bill Owens, John Carnwith, | Allen Wood, Herman Sweetman, Harry Palmer, Ron Bowman and Bill Rudyk. Executive offi- cers will be elected, from this group of directors, at the next executive meeting.

That's why Peggy Casselman felt confident she would win the Canadian women's curling championship when she led her Winnipeg quartet on to the ice for the final and deciding game here Thursday night. The Manitoba rink and Al- berta, skipped by Dorothy Thompson of Edmonton, had met in the ninth-round of the 10-rink round-robin bonspiel with identical 7-1 records, but Mrs. Casselman took advantage of the keen ice to register a 7-5 win. It was the first championship for a Manitoba rink since the Diamond "D" Trophy was first donated six years ago. The Manitoba foursome, with Val Taylor, third; t McDon< ald, second, and Pat Scott, lead, suffered their only loss against The ninth-round loss left Al- berta in second place at 7-2. Nova Scotia, skipped by Aud- rey Thorbourne of Liverpool, finished third with six wins, while Ontario's Fern Irwin of Toronto was fourth with five victories. Rinks skipped by Lesley Cmolik of Kelowna, B.C., Sybil MacMillan of Charlotte- town, P.E.I,, Solange Larouche of Dolbeau, Que., and Barbara MacNevin of Delisle, Sask., all tied for fifth place with 4-5 won- lost records. New Brunswick, Joan Callaghan of Bathurst, followed with two wins, and Newfoundland's. Bobbie Fortune of Goose Bay, Labrador, fin- ished last with one win. The possibility of a tie at the top was eliminated in the eighth round Thursday morning when Alberta walloped Nova Scotia 11-2, and Manitoba posted an even more impressive 17-5 vic- skipped by Ontario in the opening round Monday. tory over Newfoundland.

Mrs. Casselman said her strategy was to "make sure they (Alberta) didn't get a big énd and try to kill as much as possible."' Mrs. Casselman collected one stone in the opening end and two each in the second and third ends before making it 6-0 after four. Mrs. Thompson came back with two in the fifth and stole another pair in the sixth when the Manitoba rink faltered tem- porarily, but Alberta could add only a single stone in the re- mainder of the match, Tie Marlboros Hamilton Red Wings didn't look much like the Ontario Hockey Association Junior A tail-enders Thursday night. The Wings, who have won only 12 games out of 51 this season, came from behind a two-goal deficit to hold the sec- ond - place Toronto Marlboros to a 3-3 tie.
