@ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tusadey, Mey 24, 1966 By Geo. H. Campbell HAPPY HOLIDAY? Saturday afternoon had to he one of the busiest times of the year for the average, house- holding sports fan. Don't know about the rest of you, who may or may not qualify for this category but we found it to be a crowded schedule, trying to mow the iawn, un- cover the rose bushes, switch to window screens, take a peek at the ball game, ete. Things got really hectic around about 5.30 p.m., pith Cassius Clay and Henry Cooper 'aving a bit of a go, om one change) and 'Kauai King" winning The Preakness on a couple oP other chan- nels and of course, in between and-or just before, there was a bit of golf, alley-bowling and wrestling. What with making a quick switch from muddy garden shoes to house slippers, at the back doorstep and then sprinting into the living room to flip the TV dial from one bit of action to another -- frankly we found outself completely out of shape. A chap just has to start training a little earlier, to be ready for these crowded sportserama afternoons on TV, We even found our fingers getting cramped at the key tension spot, as we flipped from the big fight to the big race and then back again -- and again -- but we did manage to catch the last half of The Preakness -- all of the sixth round, which included Clay's TKO win over Cooper -- and then the full re-run of the big race at Pimlico, with jockey Don Brumfield describing his victorious ride, for the blanket of "black- eyed Susans". Not being much of a horticulturist, we didn't know -- until.an announcer revealed it Saturday --+ "black-eyed Susans" are Preakness they use a an autumn yellow daisy For The black shoe flower, and put polish in the centre -- to get the desired effect. CASSIUS CLAY, with each successive tinues to firmly establish an for "impression" weights of all time. He's big grith his hands and more especially, has the enough of the so-called contending heavyweights daring Henry champ, doesn't truly rate as any - but he powerful heavyweight with authority -- on most that division today.

Pictures proved that it was Clay's fist that opened that terrible There was some spontaneous Clay's head that opened three-inch the gash cut over Cooper's eye.

On the other hand -- don't buy Clay's after-the-fight remark that he didn't feel saw the cut and the blood saw Clay go right after the the referee halted like hitting Cooper, If you saw the action, after he the fight -- you right after look and vulnerable spot, for his first Clay landed a couple more -- then the official stopped the fight, GREEN GAELS chalked Branch on Saturday "Teen Town" less potted eight goals in assists, last night he only assists.

The largest home opener for several years, saw well in ex- cess of 500 go away disappointed down hearted Ron McNeil people but not the highly - tout ed 22. - year - old scoring sen sation of Junior days, showed he has the same call in senior ranks. The big forward, logging more floor time than any other player on either team (goalies excepted) potted no less than five goals in a winning cause Had it not have been for some fine goal fending by Gary Drysdale in the Brooklin net the classy McNeil might well have addad as many more, as he was robbed on at least five sure tries Brian Ahearne and Brian *Buteh' Keegan each fired three goals while Pat Cheevers ad ded a pair Single markers were pumped home hy Paul Hendarson, Al Abbott, Ed Hut- gel, and Johnny Roberts Terry Davis and Bob Hanna aparked the Brooklin attack with two goals each, with aces going to captain Glen Lotton, Elmer Tran, Ken Lt ton and Don Riding The game opened with all the pomp and pride of a def- ending championship team Carl Madgett president of the Canadian Lacrosse Association was on hand to say a few words along with other noted guests auch as Jack Wilson, secretary treasurer of the Canadian La crosse Association and Ivan Davie, the Ist vice president of the Ontario Lacrosse body Also on hand were Art Mor ton, president of the Brooklin club, along with Bruce Mackey eecretary of the Brooklin Red men, who said a few words prior to the official face-off Brooklin opened wp fast with two goals in the first 2% of play, with both goals coming + score with Hanna of the local team sitting in the sin bin Henderson cut the local lead to one goal while Hanna was still cooling his heels. Hanna had just returned to the floor when he picked up a_ loose ball and promptly dumped it behind Stevens in the visitor's cage Cheevers cut the lead to one goal, less than a_half-minute later, and Ahearne tied the at 8.13, after Drysdale had made two tremendous saves on McNeil from close-in Maple Leafs appeared to be just finding their scoring ways, as the second period got under way and they took advantage of some loose defensive play by the locals, to pepper Drysdale with numerous shots It was &5 at the end of the second and then the power packed Leafs poured home nine more in the final period as the Brooklin team, try as they might, just could not contain the goal hungry Leafs The best the locals could do was three goals in the final ® minutes of action JUST TALKING . 'The leafs were full benefit of their win as they were really run- ning. They had two new faces in their line up over the first game they played. Geo Stev- _ ed at the 'Northern Tornado Stopped SPORTS MENU By Powerful Green Gaels Huntsville Tornadoes were kicking up a mild storm in On- | tario Junior A Lacrosse League circles until they ran into Osh- awa Green Gaels at the Civic Auditorium here Monday night. Tornadoes, winners of their first two starts, were no match for. the defending Canadian champs, who waltzed to a 23-5 victory in a penalty-filled game. It was strictly no contest once the second period got under way and the better conditioned Gaels took over. A foolish mis- conduct penalty that Hunts- ville's Ken Thompson picked up didn't help his elub, and while he cooled his heels, Gaels pump- Whitby Lascos Edge Combines, 'League Opener By CLIFF GORDON Whitby Lasco Steelers got off on the right foot last night as they opened lacrosse season in Paris against the Oshwegen - Paris Combines and came out on top of a real close tilt 8-7. It was an uphil] battle for the boys of coach Jim Hinkson as they trailed 2-1 at the end of the first, 4-3 after 40 minu- tes but then showed their faine final period kick, as they poured home five goals, to take the victory. The game was really a battle of goal tending by Brian Brem- ner, in the Whitby cage and Gary Powless in the losers' mesh. Bremner, especially, was to the fore in the initial 20 min- utes as he really held the Steel- ers in the game. Powless too was tested from clos in, on num- erous hard drives Larry Haight was the big mail carrier for the Steelers, getting a trio of goals with sin- gle markers to Wayne David- son, Joe Krosnay, Ron Sutton, Bill Gresham and Bob Johns- ton Bill Squires led the losers with a trio of goals for his night's effort. All other goals were single markers going to Jon Is- sacs, Tom Peacock, Brian Cavan and Bill Bomberry.
