~Q THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, Mey 19, 1966 Spotli ghting... THE GENERALS 2! eet The current Memorial Cup final has developed into a hard-fought, do-or-die struggle between the Edmonton 'Oil Kings" and Oshawa Generals. The Generals bounced back from a dismal opening game 7-2 defeat to post two impress- ive 7-1 and 6-2 victories. How- By WREN BLAIR. . General Manager af Ozhawa Caonernla ever, Wednesday night' the "Oil Kings" knotted the series at two games apiece with a 5-3 win, in what was probably the best game of the series to- date, It was a costly game for the Generals, who blew the lead on three successive occasions and it's now anybody's series. Pee ae rene aerna HIS SIXTH SEASON Fifth And Sixth Games On Weekend The Generals, of course, are | The fifth and sixth games go this weekend and we would like to point out that tomor- row's game (Saturday) is a night game at 8:00 p.m., in- stead of Saturday afternoon as originally scheduled. Sunday's game is an after- noon fixture at 2:00 p.m. Again, the Generals are go- ing to need big crowds of fans from this city over the week- end to help stave off this older and stronger Edmonton Club. still operating without Bobby Orr and this is a handicap, obviously, to the team. Noth- ing short of another all - out effort by the Generals can see them win this series. In games two and three, the team forechecked Edmonton at eyery turn with great bursts of speed and hard work. This has got to be done again if the local squad is to come up with the much needed vic- tories. General Jottings... The status of Bobby Orr for game number five tomorrow night will not be known until game time, Bobby aggravated his groin injury in Wednes- day's game when he was trip- ped by Edmonton player, Ross Lonsberry ...

One of the first things Hunter did when he arrived is scheduled for Sunday after-| here last week with his Oil Kings for the Memorial Cup junior hockey playoffs was to criticize Eastern hospitality. "Every time Eastern teams come West to play in the Me- morial Cup we treat them to a banquet with all the trim- mings,' he said at a pre- | series news conference. "But when we come east, what do we get? Nothing." "I didn't know this was the case," replied Wren Blair, manager of Oshawa Generals. "T didn't even know there was a Memorial Cup dinner." Maple Leaf Gardens, where the series is being played, an- nounced Thursday a Memorial Cup dinner will be held to- night in the Hot Stove lounge of the Gardens, starting at 5:30 p.m. And who is paying for it? Why, Wren Blair, of course. he played two years of Jr. and one year of Sr. Lacrosse and drew only one penalty, a record unequalled by any other player in Ontario. Always a keen threat, he won| the scoring championship in Junior "as well as a_ special ship. In Senior he has |twice and third twice. Last season he was awarded! Lotton treasurers, than any he has won. j In five years of senior lac- rosse, Lotton has played in four Mann Cup series, and was in- vited by a fifth team if they advanced to the finals, another record that should take some | beating. |AT BEST IN PLAYOFFS His scoring abilities have been ; well recorded in the Canadians |championships also, Lotton has |scored 29 goals in Mann Cup play, third only to Bobby Allan, who leads with 47 goals and Jac Bionda, who is in second place. |The former two players have |been rated as two of the great- jest in the game, Lotton's name should very soon be added to that list.
