When The National Advisory Council on Physical Fitness and Amateur Sport was finally organized and got off the ground with substantial grants to various governing sports bodies in the country -- the move was acclaimed by all, especially those who really needed financial help to promote their particular sport. The situation was ideal -- but now, after a few years of handouts -- the Council hasn't exactly shown their teeth -- but they have produced a string on their purse, a string that appears to be still tied, even after the purse is opened. The Council wants to have a look at hockey, the pro-amateur ties; how it works with regard to professional offers interfering with a boy's education; how the drafts or "lists" curtail his rights as a non-adult citizen; how come the NHL dictates BY UCNKIS DENNEII With barely a glance in his rear view mirror, New Zeal- ander Bruce McLaren ran aw- ay with the honors in Satur- day's edition of the Player's 200 at Mosport. His beautifully prepared and driven McLaren Elva Olds was just too good for the op- position. In a manner of speaking, the young New Zealander also took second, third and fifth spots, for his own designed and built McLaren - Elvas dominated the race, American Lothar Motschen - bacher drove one into second place and McLaren's New Zea- land team - mate, Chris Amon, playing rules for amateurs; how the grant monies to ama- teur hockey are being spent and finally, how can Canada's | international image in hockey can be restored. There are | a lot of questions that have been asked by amateur hockey | folk, by sports scribes and others, many times already -- but now they're going to be asked again -- and this time, answers will be demanded, they'll be. studied and investi- gated -- and, we hope -- if it's found that something has to be done (we feel it has been needed for a long time) then something will be done. For a start, we'd like to see amateur hockey given back to the amateurs -- and. while they might make the odd fumble, let's remember, they did it once before and did it well. And one thing will never change -- like the seed, before the full bloom or fruit -- there has to be a youngster, an amateur, before the expert professional. LACROSSE FANS who follow the fortunes of our Green Gaels with avid interest, will have to restrain their keen | enthusiasm for supporting them at the home stand, Civic | Auditorium, for at least a week. The Gaels came up with a brilliant win in St. Catharines on Friday night, one of those come-from-behind wins that is the true stamp of quality | and spirit, when real class is being evaluated in sports com- petition. That put them back in the win column but tomorrow | night presents a stern chore for the Gaels. A week ago to- night, Mimico Mounties moved into Oshawa, and did some | thing no team had been able to do to the Gaels for almost | three years -- namely lick them on their home floor, in a league game. It had happened the odd time in playoffs but | not in a schedule fixture. Tomorrow night, Green Gaels play back in Mimico and they're determined to even the | count with the Mounties. Incidentally, the Gaels are not at home tonight, one of the few Mondays they miss in this | season's schedule. They were dated to host Long Branch here on Wednesday night, but that game has been post- poned, by mutual consent, because most of the players are in the midst of that annual pressure session -- exam- inations. Green Gaels have set their sights on a victory in Mimico on Tuesday night and as far as coach Jim |was iB drove another into third place. Fourth was Mak Kronn in a McKee Chey and Canadian John.

The or- ganizational meeting last week indicated that five or six teams will face the barrier, in the Bantam League soft- ball race, for OASA playoff rights and City Champion- ship honors. The situation in the Midget division is not nearly so bright but it is certain that Oshawa will be re- presented in OASA midget ranks this season and there could be more than one team in. the running. Mean- while, Neighborhood Park Sports Chairmen or others in charge, are reminded that they must have a qualified representative at Tuesday's meeting, empowered to act -- and armed with the entry fee.
