6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, May 30, 1967 SPORTS BEAT By Eric Wesslby Times Sports Editor IF YOU THINK Oshawa's sports facilities aren't being used to advantage, you have either been out of the city for qilite a spell, or you never leave the house after six o'élock in the evening. Last night, on a whirlwind tour of four spots, I counted nine dif- ferent games going on, and in one instance a doubleheader was scheduled. This was only at four locations. Just imagine how busy the city is when you count the number of parks around. 'THE JUNIOR Legionnaires dished up a pleasing brand of baseball at Kinsmen Memor- ial Stadium as they trimmed Toronto Peoples in a Leaside Junior League game. Jim and Ted Lutton have their clib performing in three leagues this summer, which makes for a busy schedule, but they are hoping all the cdmpetition will pay off with ar Ontario junior title. Jim reports that Kingston enthu- sia@sts were impressed with the' team in their game with Kingston seniors Sunday. BIGGEST DIFFICULTY the team has had to over- come in early outings has been the number of misplays in the field, but one reason for this was the bl Jim Bishop's crew are just too strong. And this club is going to get stronger. Big Don Stinson is just counting the days until he gets into ac- tion, and his presence will make it that much more dif- ficult for Bishop to select his team. GOALKEEPER MERV Marshall continues to play steady lacrosse, and even if his mates are having an off- color night, Merv can usually hold them in there long enough to pull out a_ win. Gaels last night were almost letter perfect in the opening period as they ran their way into a 7-0 lead, but they slackened off somewhat over the final two periods. Gaels travel to Long Branch Thurs- day, and their next home en- counter is June 12 when To- ronto Township makes its sec- ond appearance here. SENIOR LACROSSE makes its return to Oshawa Thurs- day when Lasco Steelers play Owen Sound North Stars in a senior "'B" encounter at Civic Auditorium. This is Owen Sound's first season in la- crosse since 1961 and while it might take some of the older players a while to re- gain their form, the team has several outstanding ters. Former Toronto cold weather Wwe've had re- cently. The team went into its opening game with very little preparation, and it takes a while for the fielding to come around. The club ap- pears to have stronger pitch- ing this year than last, and the hitting should improve. Eric Peterson, top hitter last season, is off to a slow start at the plate but he made one play at shortstop last night that will long be remember- ed by those who saw it. AT CIVIC AUDITORIUM, Oshawa Green Gaels proved to one and all that when the chips are on the line, they don't intend to fool around. Huntsville Hawks, winners over Toronto Township PCOs Saturday, were expected to give Gaels a real run for their money in this one, but coach 2 Marlboro hockey star John Lumley is playing-coach for North Stars. BROOKLIN REDMEN had their winning ways snapped Saturday night, but not even general manager-coach Fred Whalley expected the club to have an undefeated season. It had to be one of the weird- est refereed games in some time, with both officials total- ly confused at various times. Graeme classy rookie, in two skirmishes in the sec- ond period but escaped with only a minor penalty while Brooklin players were penal- Gair, was Toronto's involved ized seven minutes. At that time, Redmen were still in the game. By the time the penalties had elapsed, To- ronto had a commanding lead.

(Oshawa Times Photo) Hawk Huntsville Hawks, who are hoping for a first place finish in the Ontario Lacrosse Asso- ciation junior "A" series, were served notice at Civic Auditor- ium last night that defending champion Oshawa Green Gaels aren't about to step aside with- out a fight. MOUNTIES HALTPED While Green Gaels were con- firming their league-lead su- periority, Long Branch moved into a three - way deadlock for the fourth place berth in the congested _ schedule scramble, with a 10-3 victory. over Mimico Mounties. Al Rimmer, Bill Sheehan and Bruce, Todman each potted a pair for Long Branch with Dave Poole, Al Lavallee, Wayne 'Copeland and Kevin Biss add- ing singletons. Kevin Ellis netted two for Mimico and Ken Henderson got their other goal. Both these teams are in ac- tion again tonight, Long Branch meeting Toronto. Marlboros while Mimico faces Toronto Township. Gaels hopped into a 7-0 first period lead and coasted to a 16-5 win over the northerners before 1,700 spectators. Oshawa has a record of six wins and one loss, for 12 points, two more than Huntsville and To- ronto Twonship. é Oshawa goaltender, Merv Marshall kept Huntsville off the scoreboard until the 2.03 mark of the second period, with the 4 Gaels Turn Back | Challenge home team picking up eight goals to that point. Ross Jones and Larry Lloyd each scored four goals for Gaels while John Clayton and Char- lie Marlowe picked up three each and Gaylord Powless two. Larry Ireland, captain of Hawks, led his team in scoring with two goals, as Harry May- nard, Tim Kelly and former Green Gael Brian Thompson scored single goals. Hawks, who have averaged 17 goals a game this season, were held scoreless in the first per- iod by what Gaels' coach Jim Bishop, called a good defence and solid goaltending. "Defence is the guts of this game", said Bishop, and also pointed out that 'Merv Marsh- all is }aving the most consis- tent season of his career". Marshall was injured at the 14.47 mark of the second per- iod, however, and had to be replaced by 14-year-old Tom Christie, who played shutout ball for the remainder of the period. Christie stopped two hard drives by Ireland and Thomp- son shortly after he took over, then made a third big save min- utes later, when he again stop- ped Thompson. Marshall retur- ned for the third period, and allowed three goals. Brian Thompson had many good scoring chances against his former team - mates, but it was not until the 19.44 mark of the third period that he was able to solve the Marshall mys- tery on a breakaway. Oshawa's next game will be in Long Branch Thursday, against Long Branch Monarchs, who picked up a 10-3 win over Mimico Mounties Monday night. OFF THE NET... . Gaels go against the Junior "A" All- Stars June 29 at Civic Auditor- ium... JOHN CLAYTON was picked as the game's first star, and was praised by coach Jim Bishop for his consistent play- ing and hustle. Bishop said of his play this season, "'He hasn't had a bad game". HUNTSVILLE -- Slatter, Hastie, Buckley, West, Watson, Strand, Munroe, Maye nard, Greaves, Payne, L Thompson, Kelly, Peppler, Balkwill, Ireland and B. Thomp- son. OSHAWA -- Marshall, Jones, Lloyd, Langley, Higgs, T. Stin- son, Lewis, Davies, Marlowe, Vipond, Vann, Powless, Gould- ing, Davidson, Christie, J. Clay- ton and P. Clayton. REMEMBER WHEN... By THE CANADIAN PRESS Pat O'Connor, 29-year-old racing driver, was killed in pile-up of cars just after the start of the Indianapolis 500-mile race nine years ago today--in 1958. The winner that year was Jimmy Bryan, U.S. national driving champion and a close friend of O'Connor's. Oshawa Legionnaires came due Toronto People's 7-4 in a Leaside Junior Baseball lea- gue game. Legionnaires received sharp pitching from Gary Carroll, some timely hitting and excel- lent fielding. Carroll struck out 17 batters en route to his first win of the season. Only catcher Wayne Hamblin gave him any kind of trouble, the Toronto receiver picking up three of the 10 hits Carroll allowed. Centre fielder Wayne Cookson paced the 10 - hit Oshawa at- tack with a triple and two sing- les, while Brian Boyd chipped "ler-dangerous Wally Kozak due back to pick up their three-run up with an impressive perfor-|margin in the last of the fourth, mance at Kinsmen Memorial|Boyd scoring on Cookson's Stadium, Monday night to sub-'triple. Legionnaires routed Weiss in their three - run sixth, an in- ning in which Carroll aided his own cause with a run-scoring single. People's struck for three un- earned runs in the top of the ninth, Ron Linkletter driving one run in with a double and single to right field. TORONTO -- Gilmour 2b; zak 1b, 3b ss; McLellan, ss; blin c; Muzzatti rf. Blanc cf; Watters c; Peterson in with a triple and single. In the field, shortstop Eric Peterson might well have turn- ed the tide in the third inning. With Legionnaires ahead 3-0 and People's threatening with two out and runners on second and third, Peterson made a div- ing stab to snare Doug Flem- ing's liner that was going into left centre for extra bases. Had Fleming's hit gone through, things might have turn- ed out differently, with the ev- up next. Kozak had two hits for People's, Toronto pitcher Geoff Weiss ran into difficulty in the open- ing inning when Cookson sing- led and Pat Watters was safe on an error. Weiss retired the next two batters but walked John Fair to load the bases. Tony Jones lined a single into right field to score two runs, and the third run of the inning scored on Norm Bjorndahl's single to left. ss; Lockett Ib; Fair rf; Yeo rf, 3b; Jones 2b; Bjorndahl 3b; Lawrence rf; Boyd If; Carroll Pp.

What is feared to be a ser- ious injury to pitcher Bill Cochrane, was the tough blow sustained by "Georgians", with the score 2-0, in the fifth in- ning. Cochrane reached out for centre, by Korback. The ball struck Cochrane on the little finger of his right- hand (pitching hand) splitting the finger, with what appear- ed to be a broken bone, be- hind the first joint. John Sharp took over the pitching chore for Georgians at one run in the sixth and a three- run rally in the seventh. Woods' double, his second hit of the game, was the big blow in this rally. Other top batters in the game for the winners were Spiers, Korback and Kaleta. Reg White pitched Oshawa Gale Lumber to a 7-0 victory over Ajax Merchants in an Osh- awa City and District "A" Soft- ball League game at Ajax, last night. White struck out 16 bat- ters and held Merchants to five hits. Merchants had men in scoring position three times during the game, but White came up with key strikeouts on each occasion to keep the opposition off the scoreboard.
