Drop Midgets, Bants, From O.M.H.A. Play Oakvilic, juveniles move into the first round of the OMH.A. playdowns Saturdey at Bramp- ton, and are accorded a better than even chance of turning back the minor Dodgers. Second game of the series has not yet been set, as weather conditions will determine whether the contest is played here or in Georgetown. Game time at Brampton will be 6:30, as the Rosetown juniors take over the ice later for a scheduled OHA. tilt. Bantams, Midgets Out Bud Corbett anounced this week that he has been forced by lack of ice to withdraw the town's midget and bantam clubs from the O.MH.A. playdowns. "We felt it would be unfair to both the players and the teams without even a practice," he said. Lakeshores Down Dodgers In 1st Home Game Oakville Lakeshores made their initial appearance on home ice a winning effort Monday night as they battled to a 4-2 verdict over Brampton Dodgers. The victory jumped the local's point total to 1¢, and left them right in the thick of the playoff last stretch scramble. Heavy Going Bert Peer's charges came up with a fair brand of hockey, con- sidering the fact that they were playing on the thinest, roughest ice surface they have encountered all season. Actually, with the weatherman remaining his usual unco-operative self, it looked for a time as though the game would not come off at all. Salvisberg completed a neat passing play with Watson for the first Lakeshore tally after Brampton had beaten Legear early in the opening 20 minutes. Patterson backhanded the rub- ber home from a scramble to give his mates a 2-1 lead as the frame ended. After a scoreless second per- iod, when ice conditions frustrat- ed several well executed ganging attacks, Hank Galbraith drilled in a third counter for Lakies on a three-cornered shuffle with Davi- son and Patterson. Brampton came to life long enough to get one back, but Kieth Speck clin- ched the issue smartly by batting home Watson's relay shortly be- fore the game ended. Mayor Jim Black officiated at the club draw between the second and third periods, the major prize going to Walter Alway. Bud Corbett, J. Bamford of Fruit- land, and Arnold Carberry were other winners. LV) Bouts TNT Some are brightened with gay whimsical verse, and ribbon and lace.

Big Fivers Win Another Running wild in a scoring way during the game's dying mom- ats after battling on even terms most of the way, Oakville's Big Five turned back Rinky Dinks, co-leaders in the York intermed- iate basketball loop, by a 51-33 count at Vaughan Collegiate last week. So impressively has the lo- cal quintet shown in their Queen City appearances that Hill Hugh- es has received several invitations for exhibition tilts. Most notable feature of the win over Rinky Dinks was the fact that the winning margin was run up while Fiver regulars were earnestly avoiding fourth fouls that would end their individual efforts for the night. Ewart Car- berry paced the scorers with 13, followed by Al Nichol and George Juriska with 12, and Don Brown with 11. Bill Currie and Merv. Bonney were tops under the baskets, snaring countless re- bounds. Top scorer Bill Buck was ab- sent for this game, while Dunc McTavish, former University of B. C. player, has yet to round in- to form. The Big Five have been admit- ted into Intermediate "C" O.A. B.A. competition, Hughes inform- ed the Journal yesterday. Play- offs will start about mid-Feb- ruary, when local hoop fans will have an opportunity to see a very fair brand of basketball on dis- play. Lose To Brampton Further strengthened by the addition of a speedy new forward line, Brampton's junior Dodgers trounced Bud Corbett's Oakville youngsters 7-2 at Brampton on Saturday night. Although the local kids stayed right in the hunt. to keep the score tied at 2-all at the end of the second period, they wilted under a blistering Dodger attack that netted five counters in the final frame. Dave Boxford and Emory Saulnier cashed the losing markers.
