A.. tr.~kr~ -- -an r ~a. - r. 1PAGE LEIGHT THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVELLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY, FEB. 16th61 SPORTO'PICS" By Frank Mohun MA 3.7234 BOB GALLAGHER ON TV, SUNDAY Bob Galiagher, weil-known former Bowmanville resi- dent, wiIi be appearing on Channel 9, Sunday afternoon at 4 o'ciock. Bob, a top-fiight bowier, currently boasting a 253 average in the Toronto Major League, will be bowling against Fraser Hambly, an 18-yenr-oid, averaging 252. The reiatively new program "Canada Bowls" is entireiy di.fferent from the bowling shows now on television. Each bowler rolls one game withi the winner, as usuai, getting the larger share of the priza rnoney. Each strike is worth ten bucks, with spares earning the bowler a five-spot. Consec- utive strikes pay off weii, with the prize doubling each frame. Three in a row, for example, would xin $40.00. Let's see- at that rate a perfect game is worth $20,480.00! t -t t t t NEyER CONDEMN A REFEREE Being an old retircd referee of sorts, we have always had the idea that referees are tryîng to do their best, and shouidn't be condemned for their mistakes. However, after watching Ivan Locke and Ab. Barnes handie the Juvenile and Interrmediate gamnes iast week, our thinking bas changed, wath regard to these two anyway. Offsides can be mnissed, it's true, but with this pair of so-called officiais, they wave it okay at times, when the puck Is passed from behind the blue-line over centre. On other occasions a legitimate pass in the centre zone between the blue-lines is called offside and play is brought back inside the defending zone, where it hadn't even started. Their whistie-tooting is so inconsistent that it is remarkable that they - or Locke anyway - ever got to be an O.H.A. officiai. It's p2rhaps siganificant that practicaliy ail of bis assignments are at the Intermediate and Minor hockey level. We'li save the rest of our criticism for another column. As was stated earlier, it isn't this reporter's practice to rap referees, but Ivan and Ah have goofed too often. t t t t +1 DON LAIRD ON U. 0F T. BADMINTON TEAM Several years ago Don Laird and this reporter battled it out for the singles championship of the Bowmanville Bad- minton Club, and for a brief time played together as a men's doubles team. Since then Don bas gone (in to greater things, while the scribe's badminton-playing leaves much to be desired. Don, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Laird, Concession St., Is a third year Industrial Engineering student. He qualified for the U. of T. badminton teamn which competed In the Inter-Collegiate tourniment held last week at Toronto's Carleton Club. The U. of T. players took top honours. Don bas been on the team for three years, inaking hlm eligibie for a beautiful bronze plaque, to be presented at the sports banquet, beld in Hart House, next month. He is also an atv ebro h tahoa amno lbi Toronto. Congratulations on your achievements, Don. t t I t t NO LOCAL BOWLERS IN MEN'S DIVISION None of Bowmanville's representatives made the top spots in the Men's Zone Play-off, Sunday afternoon in Peter- borough. We understand that a bowler who only took up the game last year ended ini top spot, sporting a 275 average for the 10 games. Bob Gallagher, former Bowmanville resident, who along with Larry Piper, was on the Eastern Canada teamn last yeiar, quaiified for the Eastern play-offs. Bob bad 1198 for his first fu ae for a 299.5 average, and held the leadt t * .ti. tt NTENOUGH INTEREST IN INT. BALL This reporter was dlsappointeca to learn, after talking with Jim Crombie and AI Osborne, that the prospects of formning an Intermediate Basebail Club weren't too bright. Severai interested people have contacted them, but 13 not nearly as many as we had expected. With the league meeting coming up next week, AI and Jim wiIl have to know by this weekend, if any more interest is forthcoming. r This is your hast chance to revive Intermediate Bail in (Continued on page nine)1 L Memornul Arena '1 BOWMANVILLE I PUBLIC SKATING FRI.ir FEB. 17 8-10 P.M.
