6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, December 30, 1966 SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell | Associate Sporis Editor % Oshawa Generals gave it the old college try, last night in Hamilton, but simply were not able to cash in on enough of their scoring. opportunities, particularly in the first period and again in the last six or seven minutes of the game. Brian Morenz hit the goal-post on a breakaway from a Red Wing ganging act, while Oshawa was shorthanded, with the score 2-0. A few minutes later, Ron Dussiaume spoiled Hamilton's shutout bid. Generals came close several times after that and then with goalie Ian Young out of the net, for the last 17 seconds, the homesters scored in the yawning . cage, so it ended 3-1. Incidentally, Young's performance be- tween the pipes last night was again of the high, superlative Kitchener Wins Title | At Riverside Oshews Bantam All-Stars lost 'but one game, but it was enough to knock them out of the Riverside "A" tournament and send them home. Kitchener defeated Oshawa 5-2 to take the title in the ten team invitational tournament which included teams from On- tario and the United States. Be- fore falling to Kitchener, Osh- awa had defeated Brampton 7-0 and 4-0 and Oakville 3-0. Midget All-Stars were also defeated as they fell to Lindsay 6-1 in the Orillia Midget "A" tourney, Oshawa defeated calibre that made him a star of the previous night's game at Maple Leaf Gardens, against Czechoslovakia. _ GENERALS STILL have a last opportunity to close the 1966 portion of the current season on a winning note. To- ronto Marlboros visit Oshawa's Civic Auditorium for a schedule fixture tomorrow afternoon, with the game sched- uled for 3:00 o'clock. Defensively, the team seems to be performing adequately, with goalie Young as the stalwart and the defence department usually turning in steady per- formances. Oshawa's big lack is on the firing line. They ap- pear to lack, among their forwards, a leader, somebody who has both the confidence and ability to stick-handle into the opponents' end of the rink, instead of firing the puck in and chasing in after it. To create the desired "odd man" situation, or somebody left uncovered, it is necessary for the puck-carrier to beat an opponent, actually stick-handle past his check.

Via TV of course, you get football before New Year's Eve celebrations start, you can have it between courses or after the turkey on Sunday and you can get more, while resting on Monday. The 'Gator Bowl is the first, at noon Saturday, between "bowl" games crowd Monday, with Alabama and Nebraska in the Sugar Bowl; Georgia Tech and Florida in the Orange Bowl and then, of course, 'the reely big one" -- the class- ical Rose Bowl game, between Purdue Boilermakers and Southern California U. on Monday, at 5:00 p.m., our time. Sandwiched in between, on Sunday, we have Dallas Cow- boys meeting Green Bay Packers, in the NFL final and Kansas City vs Buffalo Bills, in the AFL title game. AT THIS TIME of the year, we look back over happy and success highlights of the season and here in Oshawa we have the jubilation of the Green Gaels' fourth Canadian Junior Lacrosse Championship in succession and the dis- appointment of Oshawa Generals losing The Memorial Cup finals to Edmonton Oil Kings. But just the same -- Bobby Orr, Wayne Cashman, Danny O'Shea, Bill Heindl and those boys still with the team, made it a great hockey year for Oshawa Junior fans. Individually, Gordie MacMillan brought high honors to. himself, his hometown and Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club, of which he was the '66 president, when he captured the Canadian Singles championship. Back in May, Bill' Rudyk and Nelson Starr won the Canadian "Doubles" championship in 410-gauge skeet shooting. Bob Bradley's fine season in golf, leading the qualifiers at Cataraqui on July 12; Pamela Miller's Ontario Open golf championship, when she beat Marlene Stewart Streit; Pickering's 'Bev' Boys making such a terrific showing in the British Empire Games diving events -- and Canadian championships; John- ny Ryan joining Toronto Maple Leafs on August Ist; these were all tremendous contributions to Oshawa's sports his- tory in 1966. Two Ontario championships in softball; out- standing success by our young skiers; great seasons in ten- nis, baseball, cricket, track, alley bowling, soccer, curling, etc., etc., all combined to make this past one a banner year for Oshawa's sports teams and athletes. FOR 1967, we wish for more Oshawa teams to' win championship laurels, especially. those who have never tasted the sweet nectar of success before; we wish for our individual athletes to attain even greater heights in their favorite sport; we wish that "press reporters" in alley bowl- ing, minor. basketball and minor hockey, etc., would learn to spell their sponsor's name correctly -- such as Kinloch's (not 'k'); Hayden Macdonald (all one name and small 'd'); Houdaille (not 'ia'); make sure whether it's Brian or Bryan; etc, etc. -- but most of all, we wish--to YOU and YOURS-- "A Happy and Prosperous New Year" Richmond Hill and Carlingwood before meeting Lindsay. Oshawa All-Star teams were more successful at home, how- ever, as Novice All-Stars hum- bled. Port Hope 19-0 and Pee Wee All-Stars beat Ted Reeve of Toronto 11-0. Jim Duignan led the novice team with three goals while Bill Angus, Jerry Thompson, Dave Goguen, Gary Wiltshire, John Hoefs, Robert Small and Ken Morden scored two each and Tim Morris and Kelly Gal- lagher picked up single goals. Dave McKee was high man for pee wees as he scored four goals. John Thaler picked up two goals as single ls went to Garry Armstrong, Peter Fal- laise, Frank Bathe, Jeff Rora- beck and Terry McKee.

That was the difference be- tween Hamilton Red Wings and Oshawa Generals here Thurs- day night in Ontario Hockey Association Junior "A" League play. Red Wings, who won the game 3-1 before 3,123 fans (the largest Hamilton turnout of the season), got the opening goal on a shot that deflected off a defenceman. Centre Jim Adair wrapped things up for the Wings as he fired from his own blueline into the empty Oshawa net with 15 seconds remaining and goal- keeper Ian Young sidelined for an extra attacker.

The selection was announced at the end of a three-day meet- ing at which franchise owners completed plans to place the league in operation next spring. The league has clubs in Van- couver and Toronto, Gabe Paul of Cleveland, chairman of the commissioner selection committee, said Walsh week, at Civic Auditorium.
