Togged in purple and gold, the Bowmanville Kinsmen Basketeers did proud the new uniforms thcýy wore, defeating the Oshawa team 45 to 33 at the Oshawa Collegiate gym, January 3rd. Following the pattern of the first game of the year, the locals started the hall rolling with a bang, scoring 9 points before the Oshawa boys could get organized. Ross, Sulli- van, MeIntyre and Brown tally- ing one basket eachi with Ross sinking a foul shot for the odd point. However, the Oshawa boys came back bard and by baîf time the score was tied 15-15, Sul- livan scoring twice and Rundie with one basket wcre the Bow-1 manville marksmen. In the second baîf the game really opened up with Bowman- ville leading and then Oshawa taking the lead, and with only 8 minutes left the score was still tied. From then on it was Bow- manville ail the way, out-point- ing the Oshawa team by 12 points. Ross, Rundle, Gallagher, and Sullivan accounted for 30 points in the last haîf. For Oshawa Mackness turned in a stellar per- formance, getting 17 points. This was the kind of game the crowd love, with plenty of thrill- ing action from start to finish. The local team are really hitting their stride now, and with this win under their belts there should1 be no holding them back. Lineups: Bowmaoville-D. Sullivan 15. J. Ross 12, D. Rundle 11, R.

While-travelling around here and there, we're stili picking up random bits of information on the recent duck season . . . Every now and then we hear someone say they've shot a banded duck, but haven't bothered yet to turn the band in. . . You know, this complicates matters unnecessarily. It makes all the surveys more difficult to complete. Every band collected should be sent to the address shown on it as soon as possible. It means a lot to the naturalists and research- ers, and their findings through these tags can mean a lot to you, too, as an individual sportsman.. Shortly, we hope to be able to bring you an article on banding generally. It can mean a tremen- dous amount both for the natural- ists and to hunters... While in Ottawa we attended the annual meeting of the On- tario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to AnimaIs. Dr. Hark- ness, Chief of the Division of Wildlife, Department of Lands and Forests, gave a tremendously interesting talk on this occasion. ...What many of us don't realize is the tremendous scope of this Wildlife Division. Our eyes were certainly opened as we listened; to Dr. Harkness. . . It's the job of bis department not to regulate and manage the angler and hunt- er, but to provide game in suf- ficient quantities for everyone. Tbrows a different light on the subject, if you look at it that way. The other day we read of an interesting experiment conducted on wildfowl in the United States. Seems the Conservation Commis- sion of the State of New York is interested in the ability of the pbeasant to stand extreme tem- peratures. .. Apparently the phea- sant's stamina depends on proper feeding. . . A cock pheasant, in good condition, was placed in a refrigerator and fed regularly. The temperature was then lower- ed to forty below zero! It was kept at this temperature for two weeks, in the meantime being well nourished. . . When released, the bird flapped its wings and 'he cold that kilîs off birds in winter! We came across a highly inter- esting (and as yet probably con- troversial) article on water pollu- tion. Seems that the Izaak Wal- ton League of America bas pub- lished a pamphlet on the subject. Rundie Top Scorer 1 As Foresters Win Bowmanville C.O.F. hockey club mot started on the right foot last Monday evening at Brooklin by winning the opening league game by a score of 8-6 from Rag- lan. For Bowmanville Don Rundie was the star of the contest with six goals, two in each period. The game itself was rough and f ast with plenty of end.to end rush- ing with the local Foresters hold- ing a slight edge. Rice and Kitson worked well on defence and the line of Rundie, Ferguson and Gerardi went well Up front with Levett also work- ing hard. Ken King was in goal and turned aside numerous scor- ing chances. Other goal scorers were Lyle and Stacey. There were only tlhree penalties, two to Bowmari- ville and one to Raglan. Bob Craig and Lowell MacDougal were the Bowmanville offenders. The Foresters will attempt to make it two straight next Mon- day night when tbey meet Can- ada Bread.

Bowling News Any resemblance to bowling last Thursday evening at the Bal- moral Hotel is purely coinci- dental. Some fifteen bowlers turned out and a total of 29 games were recorded. However, most everyone would have gladly tomn the sheets up instead of counting the scores in on their av- erage. Fred Griffin's team shouldn't have gained a point but instead, wound up with ahl five points as they beat Levett's teamn in both games. i1evett's teamn had only two bowlers (pardon the terma) in Jack Kitson and Harriett Ellis and in the second game they lost by only 19 pins. Harriett rolled two games with scores of 92 and 63. Oh well we can't belp it if the alleys slope, can we Harriett? Lila Blackburn gave ber bus- band Blackie a real score a.i she rolled 104. Oh yes, let us not forget to mention Blackie's score of 106. Just a four-pin, Lila, and you would have beat him. Cowling and Schwarz teams had a real close contest in both games. In the first game Cowl- ing emerged with a total of 20 pins higher than Schwarz's team and in the second game Schwarz wvon by 29 pins. Let us not men- tion the totals as we w'ouldn't want anyone to think they were high doubles or single man's score for three games. We must mention Emma Bragg's score of 212 as it was the highest of the night. It just goes to prove yoiu don't have to be a bowler to turn out Thursday night and have fun. Yours truly had f ive blows as did Harriett and F. Griffin and Blackie had 4. Contributions greatly appreciated fellows and gals. This week Griffin's team bow's Schwarz and Levett bowls Cow- ling.

The Hockey Award For the greateat gest Edward 'Eddie' Shore of Qu'Appelle. Saskatchewan, who >' hoyearsaer suo o was born just two the present century. - Generally acceptcd as the greatest defence- man in the game. Eddie Shore cao vcry w-ell be considered as the greatest hockey player--period 1 Neyer a gentle- manl to the poinst of losissg the puck or a goal. Shore nevertheless brouglit a tremendous amount of colour and talent to the game. An a player, Eddie Shore built hie hockey career the 'hard way'. follow- ing the ice game through the Melville Millionaires in 1923, through Regina and Edmonton and fiaally to the Boston Bruina. where lie literally sold' the game to the casual Boa. tonians. And incidentally the Bostona management seem to need someone to do the job over again in 1951, but that la another story. In hie first year with Boston, the dynamnic Shore pulled the Bruina up by their bootstraps. froro a cellar position in tIhe N.H.L. of the two prcvious years-to second place in the American section of the league ini 1926. Ile is the only player to ever win the llart Trophey four times, and is now, of course, elected to hockey's Kingston Hlall of Fanse. Eddie Shore did nothing "for fun". lie asked for and got hie price. That lie %vas alwaye worth the rooney lie commanded no employer ever ques- tioned, for Shore played hockey like a frantic machine-at top speed and eff ort. The Rugby Crown rit For the greatest football player-we nominate Dave Sprague of the Tigers Iand Ottawa-for hie long-playing excellence and powerful contribu- tion to the game.

Now we all know that water pollution bas played havoc with fishing, hunting, farming, and many other factors, but this latest news was surprising to us, at least! If this is true, and the evidence shows that it may indeed be too true, we must attack the problem -of pollution with renew- ed vigor. .. Think about this, and do your part to avoid soiling our remaining waters! Did you know that the Depart- ment of Lands and Forests (On- tario) bas recently announced completion of the first part of their woodlot market survey? This survey of our main forest- product industries bas been going on since June. . . Woodlot owners who have been waiting for the resuits of thîs undertaking are now able to get fairly complete information. If you need advice on how to market or seil your woodlot products, get in touch with the zone forester for your area. From the information the De- partment hýs gathered, these of- ficers are now able to advise you as to what type of timber pro- ducts are in demand by industries, and where the industries are located. This project was undertaken to assist owners of bushlands in getting the best possible revenue from their woods and to encour- age them in the conservation and care of our forests. It is expected that the survey will be of value to the industries as well. . . But one of the main reasons for under- taking the project was to provide an answer to the sometimes thoughtless devastation of our forest wealth. Were farmers and others shoxvn the way, they might benefit the country and them- selves in a very material way! Many people who before were un- aware of the value of their bush- lands are now able to realize sometbing from them, through the assistance of local foresters. This is a fine job, and one which will be of value to many, many people, in the £ountry and in industry.
