6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, August 26, 1966 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H, Campbell Associate Sports Editor LAWN BOWLERS. all across Ontario, can be forgiven these days, if they are strutting around like peacocks -- especially the local enthusiasts. Ontario representatives made a clean sweep of the Canadian lawn bowling cham- pionships, at Winnipeg, this past week. Not only did "On- tario" win the singles, doubles and men's rink titles but in an unprecedented record display, they all marched to the top without a single stain of defeat. This is the first time in the 12-year history of the national championships that one province has taken all three crowns. A Kitchener foursome, headed by skip Allan Bradley, won the rinks event while George Robbins and Ron Jones of London, teamed up to capture the doubles award. Oshawa's Gord MacMillan won the singles crown. Back a few years ago, George Jackson and Jack Hunter, of this city, represented Ontario in the doubles, and came home with the Canadian championship. A couple of seasons back, Gordie MacMillan won the "On- tario' singles title and right to be in the championships, but on that occasion, was beaten out. We repeat--members of the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club have every right to be _ prou'l -- who else in the sport can say "our president is the men's singles champion of Canada"? To be elected presi- dent of any club, brings along with the responsibilities, a sense of pride and personal satisfaction. Earned by his prowess in the game, Gord MacMillan now has an added wonderful memento of the year he served his club as president -- the 1966 Canadian Men's Singles Champion- ship Trophy. His lawn bowling members will smother him with: congratulations -- on behalf of all the other sports fans in Oshawa, and particularly the members of the Q@shawa Curling Club (where Gordie is also a_ top- Botcher)we would like to pass on, warm and sincere, more of the same! * STILL WITH BOWLS! Some of the older exponents of the sport, which dates back at least, to the days of the invasion Of England by the "Spanish Armada' when Sir Francis Drake insisted on finishing his game of '"'bowls'" before faking to sea to fight the enemy, are of the opinion that the the game is declining. Gerry Hyde, of Belleville, president ef the PLBA, insists that it is not "an old folks' game" nor that it lacks excitement. The technical difference between Jawn bowling and curling is that, in curling, the target or "button" is permanent and stationary, in the centre of "the rings' -- in lawn bowling, the little white ball or "jack" is the actual target and it's position varies, each and every end, plus it can be moved, by a bowl, during an individual "end.'"' The increase of summer cottage popu- Jarity and individual entertainment, such as golf, fishing, étc., these have all made inroads on the lawn bowling "population" .-- along with that old-time enthusiasts are passing on and not enough new recruits are being secured by the clubs. The major toll has been in the foursomes or "rinks" competitions. In lawn bowling, as in other sports, the distaff side is now taking a much more active part, so mixed-doubles 'or trebles are increasing in popularity. Singles are "lonely" but a great opportunity for the dedi- ¢ated perfectionist. In "rinks," it would appear that the men are losing their enthusiasm, because once the "lead" hhas delivered or "thrown" his two bowls -- he has a long wait before he is back in action again. The same goes for each member of the rink -- because unlike curling, for instance, there isn't any "sweeping" to be done, so the individual hasn't got the "team" psychology present, with the idea of at least helping the other members of his "rink" achieve success or a better shot. In contrast, the popu- larity of doubles and trebles has resulted in the average age of lawn bowlers being much younger today, than 20 years ago Oshawa Green Gaels boarded the bus that would take them to Mimico and what was felt their second straight win over Mimico Mounties, at 6:30 p.m. last night. Previous to the departure, Gaels' manager Fred Whalley phoned the Mimico Arena and confirmed that the junior la- crosse game was still on, des- pite unfavorable weather condi- tions. As the bus pulled away from the Oshawa Civic Auditorium, rain began to fall in over- whelming amounts, dampen- ing the spirits of the players because there would be no game. "No," Whalley said, "'the game is still on." And the bus drove away. Within the hour, Gaels and their custom-built bus arrived in Mimico, their reception~--an ovation of rain. Officials. of both clubs con- ferred and decided to postpone the game until tonight in the same outdoor bowl in Mimico. The extra-day's rest was a welcome one for several of the Gaels, defending Minto Cup champions. Gaylord . Powless, Ross Jones, Dwight Davies and Neil Armstrong are all re- covering from recent injuries, LACROSSE SCORES By THE CANADIAN PRESS Junior A GAYLORD POWLESS Powless' back injury was so severe that he couldn't make the trip last night and is an unlikely starter in tonight's contest. Mounties, the only team to beat Gaels this season, are trying to break Oshawa's grip on the Canadian junior cham- ionship. Gaels have won the Minto Cup three straight years and currently have a nine - game winning streak going for them in this year's playoffs. Juniors Try Again At Mimico Tonight gets underway at 8:30 in the Drummond Street Duwi. Graeme Gaif, first team ail- star centre, proved the most troublesome of the Mimico for- wards in the first game of the best-of-seven series, scoring four goals on Monday. He'll be out to prove his selection over Powless was warranted. Probably the key to Gaels' fortunes lies in how well keeper Merv Marshall per- forms. He had a so-so series against Toronto Township in the semi-finals but was sharp in 'the first encounter with Mimico allowing eight goals. Coach Jim Bishop has been getting a lot of mileage out of players such as Phil Clayton, 'Brian Thompson, Don Stinson, Jim Higgs and Charlie Mar- lowe with his big guns hobbled. Clayton bagged 16 goals in the semi-finals and added three more to his total Monday. Thompson netted 14 goals against PCO's and he scored a pair against Mimico, Higgs has taken over the playmaking duties of the in- jured Powless and has drawn 18 assists in five games. Third game in the series will be played at Oshawa Civic Auditorium Monday at 8:30 p.m. Oshawa at Mimico (ppd. rain) (Oshawa leads best-of-seven final 1-0) Senior B Windsor 5 Fergus 16 (Fergus leads best-of-seven final 1-0) Bradleys Win Tournament PETERBOROUGH (CP) -- Herb Carnegie of Toronto and his 15-year-old daughter Ro- chelle Thursday won the father and daughter division of the Ontario Golf Association's par- ent and child tournament. The Carnegie team had an 18- hole score of 82, one stroke ahead of defending - champion Cliff Gilbert of Toronto and his daughter Betty. Mrs. Jean Bradley of Oshawa and her son Bob won the mother and son section. They scored an 83, four strokes better than the runners-up, Mrs. Ei- leen Salter of Toronto and her son Bill of Hamilton. s Low-net winner in the father and daughter group were Jack The return bout between Hamilton's Johnny Powers, a big favorite with Oshawa wrest- ling fans, and Tiger Jeet Singh, rated high on their "hate list', was expected to be a. stern grudge match, following their hectic clash a few weeks ago, and that is exactly how it turn- ed out, for the main event of last night's card, at the Civic Auditorium. From the moment the gong sounded, they were at it, ham- mer-and-tongs, battering each other from one side of the ring to the other and committing mayhem in the corners, more like two boxers than wrestling opponents, Tiger Jeet Singh got his own patented "cobra" hold it closely resembles an_ illegal choke -- and clamped down to put Powers out of it, at 12.04 Main Mat Bout Ends Draw, Both Counted Out Of Ring but when they resumed the action, the fists and feet flew harder and faster than before and this time, Johnny Powers sent his rosters into a frenzy of delight, with his 'power lock," to subdue Tiger Jeet, at 16.31. TUMBLE OUT OF RING The tempo speeded up even more for the final fall, as they battered each other, almost to the point of exhaustion. Singh once again clamped his cobra hold on Powers and despite the latter's wild evasive tactics, Singh held on grimly. In the Struggle, they toppled over the ropes, to the cement floor out- side the ring. Singh still held his hold but he had been underneath in the crash landing, with the result neither was mobile enough to get back into the ring, before referee Bunny Dunlop had SIX - UNDER - PAR Rookie Tom Weiskopf, us- round of the $110,000 Phila- ing a mallet-head putter, delphia golf tournament.

Toothpick Sam Jones Retains Strikeout Touch By THE CANADIAN PRESS By the end of the 1957 base- balf season Sad am Jones had chewed his way through mil- lions of toothpicks and struck out 560 major league batters. Nine years later the right- hander still digests pounds of spruce annually as he concen- trates on each batter he faces, but the ageless Jones who says he's '40 going on 60," hasn't lost his strikeout touch. Sad Sam demonstrated his lasting ability Thursday night, striking out 11 batters in five innings of relief work to lead Columbus Jets to a 4-3, 13-in- ning victory over Buffalo Bi- sons, Elsewhere, Syracuse Chiefs defeated Richmond Braves 4-1, Jacksonville Suns downed Ro- chester Red Wings 7-3, and Tor- onto Maple Leafs edged Toledo successive singles in the 13th inning. Choo Choo Coleman, with two. homers, and Gary Kolb with an- other powered the Suns to their victory. Larry Miller pitched six-hit ball for the Suns for 8 2-3 innings, but Dave Eilers finished up. Pancho Herrera and Jackie Moore hit fourth-inning homers in the Chiefs' victory over the Braves. Herrera's clout ac- counted for three runs. A walk followed by singles by John Ryan of Oshawa, Mickey. Sinks and Stan Johnson erased a 4-3 Toledo lead in the eighth inning and gave Toronto the vic- tory. Sinks, the second of two relief pitchers, retired nine suc- cessive batters before yielding a single in the ninth. : UAWA LEAGUE UAWA -Bowlers will start on Sept, 23, wa the Oshawa Bowling Lane at 7 o'clock sharp.

We think the recent "general news" in our fair city entitles us to brag a little about the 6ld hometown and insist, things are a little different in Oshawa. There are few games, in the individual sports category, that require more concentration and hours of individual! practice, than golf. Know what? -- Oshawa's "Pam" Miller won the Ontario ladies' golf title this sum- ter -- but she also won an Ontario Scholarship, for her scholastic status, in the departmental examinations. This is undeniable proof that when you applaud a_ sports celebrity, you are not necessarily giving an accolade to an uneducated teen-ager who is sacrificing education for Sport interests. WE GIVE YOU several Oshawa Generals as_ further proof that because a boy is eyebrow-deep in sports, he is not to be branded as a mental moron or a future citizen devoid of any ambition in the' field of knowledge. The eredit goes to the individual boy, but we'd also like to commend the members of the Oshawa Generals Hockey Club, their general-manager, coach and all others respon- sible -- when they picked players to come to live in Osh- awa, play hockey for this city and be members of the society -- they chose well, and the records are proof that it Wasn't just accidgntal. Critics who claim that a boy devotes too m time to sport, at the sacrifice of his educaiton, should be warned, they're talking about a boy who hasn't really got what it takes -- in the first place. It should be a source of satisfaction and pride to Oshawa Generals fiotkey fans, to know that Christ Roberts got 68 per cent in his top seven subjects, in the Grade 13 Cxaniinativi desdiis, recentiy announced. Ian Young, Osh- goalie and Nick Beverley, both had over 60 per cent. Chris Hayes will also get his Grade 13 diploma. Even when travelling night-and-day (Generals were embroiled in playoffs right through the Easter exams @nd well into the month of May) they were still studying and "buddies" at school were supplying them with notes, On lectures and lessons they had missed. We repeat -- this may not be exactly "sport" but aren't you proud to know that the lads who came here to Oshawa, to play hockey, for Oshawa Generals -- still had enough gumption and desire to make sure they didn't neglect their studies and education? You try travelling 200 miles or more, play- ing two hours of hockey and getting home in-the wee' small hours -- and still being at school, when the bell rings at 9:00 2m. -- and you've done something! Yep! We may awa Generals' and daughter Audrey were sec- ond with 72%. Peter King of Hamilton and daughter Lisa fol- lowed with a 73. Low nets in mother and son competition went to Mrs. J. W. Ellison of Toronto and son Bill who scored a 68. Mrs, Peg Ham- ilton of Brampton and son Rodger were second with 7014. Two more parent-child com- bination tournaments will be played today.
