Victorias Quarterback-Coach Soft-Spoken, Book Shop Clerk By DOUG MARTIN VANCOUVER (CP) -- Peter Ohler the soft - spoken clerk sells Shakespeare and Van Goghs from 9 to 5 on 'week- days in his art and book shop in suburban Richmond. On weekends he pulls a battered football helmet over his close - cropped hair and becomes Pete Ohler, quarter- back-coach of the semi-pro Victoria Steelers of the Pa- cific Coast Football League. Reading Kant and reading defences hold the same at- traction for the 206 - pound Vancouver native who played quarterback at the University of Washington and returned home in time to help the British Columbia Lions win the 1084 Grav Cun game. It was Ohler's pass off a fumbled field goal try that broke open ie 1964 final be- tween the Lions and Hamilton Tiger-Cats. It was also just one brief moment of glory in a pro career that was limited to holding the ball on field goal tries. Ohler, now 25, says he is satisfied with the prospect of playing out a few years in football's minor leagues and retiring. "It's like climbing moun- tains. When you can't climb the big ones you always come back and keep climbing the smaller mountains." The six-team PCFL may be a little mountain, but Ohler says it is 'no Mickey Mouse league." "All our teams have affil- ww PETE OHLER OWNS ART AND BOOK SHOP iations with American Foot- ball League teams and play- ers are always on their way up or down, And most of our rosters are full of players with three or four years of college experience," He said the better teams, such as first - place Seattle, would likely beat the Univer- Rusty Stars Edge Scugog Cleaners Scugog Cleaners five - pin club turned in one of tts best performances so far this sea- son in the Willowdale Major League, against the league leading Rusty Stars club, but still finished on the short end. Led by Sel Himes 304 and followed by Eddie Moody 298, Jim Cassells 289, Dave Rey- nolds 247 and Larry Piper 233, the Oshawa crew racked up a 1371 team score.

"Whimpy" Reynolds paced the Scugog attack in this game with 387, Alex Donaldson 274, Larry Piper 241, Moody 233 and Himes 200 for 1335. Rusty Stars club Football Reunion Held In Montreal MONTREAL (CP) -- Every living player, executive and coach connected with the Mont- real Amateur Athletic Associa- tion's 1931 Grey Cup football team was honored here Satur- day at a reunion. The club, known as the 'Winged Wheelers, went through the 1931 season undefeated and untied and then went on to cap- ture the Grey Cup, emblematic of professional football suprem-| acy in Canada. | The 200 surviving Winged Wheelers, coach Clary Foran and team manager Louis Duch- ran up a 1323 count, Sabo 325, effort.

Even. with such former B.C, Lions as Nub Beamer, Gary Schwert fe ger, Ron Morris, Walt Bilicki, Rae Ross, lan Hagemoen and, Jerry Janes, the Steelers will be lucky to win one game this year, he said. The difference is that among the Steelers only Morris and Schwertfeger entertain thoughts of returning to the Canadian Football League while players on the five American e all look- tag se Seeye Gp te ceneeeen Ohler himself did not intend to play this year. "T was just going to coach, but when we got down in Eugehe (Ore.) for our first game we only had 20 players and only'about eight of them could compete in the league. "Our quarterback was a boy who is a better halfback and defensive back, so I de- cided to play. I have never got so beat up in my life. It was as if the very flood-gates of hell had opened up on me." In five or six years, he said, Victoria might even start looking for a CFL franchise. And will Ohler be available as quarterback, coach or gen- eral manager in five or six years? "Not me. By that time, I'll be back in my little book store, where it is warm and safe." o Placekickers Lead EFC Race By THE CANADIAN PRESS Three placekickers held their own atop the Eastern Football Conference scoring race during the weekend. Moe Racine of Ottawa Rough Riders kicked two field goals in Ottawa's 35-12 loss to Toronto first place with 71 points.

The first game could nave gone to Motor City with a little more luck but it was not to be and-a strong finish by the Italian boys clinched it 1207-- 1134. Al Perry and Ron Jay were the only Motor City boys who were holding their own in the second game and it was ob- vious that the Oshawa club was in trouble when Aimco copped this one 1260 -- 1151. Oshawa came up with a much better attack in the third game, led by Perry 283, Mickey Mc- Master 264, John Trott 262 and Jay 259, to rack up a 1281 team total but again it was short of the Aimcoe 1329 team effort. With a three-game edge, Aimco club coasted to an easy win in the fourth game and also the fifth, to complete the shut - out. Aimco was by far the beter on the day's play and they had three bowlers who went the 276, Donaldson 270, Reynolds 231 and Cassells 206, gave the cleaners a 1321 team total. The Toronto club did even better, with Hoult 336, Sab6é 313, Gunn 292, Starr 266 and Bregman 252 for 1459, to take the series, two-games-to-one. It was one of the most excit- ing three games sets of the still young season and a clear indication of how tough the com- petition is, in the Willowdale major loop. The three - game totals were: Rusty Stars 4272, Scugog Clean- ers 4028. Sabo, for the winners was the top shooter of the night with 263, 325, 313 for 901; Leet 896 (384); Hoult $48 (336); Bregman: 812; Gunn 764 (295); and Starr 677.
