There wil be no- O.H.A. Junior hockey here this year! After many rnanths of ne- gotiating, the axe fell finally i Toronto on Tuesday when local representatives of the Lakeshore group were told that the only way they could operate a four team league with Brooklin in- cluded would be for them to play a one-game interlocking schedule with teains as far north as Penetang. When Bob Watt, Jiru Crom- bie and Don Gilhooly as well as representatives from -Cobourg ON refýused to accept this glItimatum, the special O.H.A. committee of- fered no alternative proposai. "It was the end," said Bob Watt, 49with the O.H.A. apparently thinking more of finances than of the players here eager to play hockey." Had the O.H.A. agreed to permit Brooklin ta play in this league, there would have been a compact, cheap-to-operate, group which would also include Bowmanville, Cobourg and Bob- caygeon with a fifth juvenile JUNIOR teamn from Oshawa playing exhibition games with them. There would stili have been a four-team loop in the other sec- tion, including Penetang, Orillia, Newmarket and Whitby. But, apparently, the O.H.A. would rather have one five-team league in that area and none operating here. Sa, they would flot com- promise. The Bowmanville repre- sentatives feit that they could not finance trips ta thase north- ern towns and also were o! the HOCKEY. opinion that youngsters of junior age ->as young as 15 - should flot be required ta take such long trips during the regular sched- ule - especially during the winter inonths when weather is Sa uncertain. Possibly a bush league can be formed in this area for junior players, but at the moment the three representatives who have been doing their utmost ta get a league started here have no plans., They are too disgusted with the O.H.A.'s attitudle on the subject.
