Didn't manage ta read them all, *nd roused ourselves long enough toi fat, apen preienti, Wateh those football games on TV, and get this - even went to uee an opera - Carmen It was - but enough about that. (We had trouble undemstanding the damn thing), By New Year's we were aimait back in motion again. Ceiebrmted the regulan ove a littie eanly - lait Wednesday right, and thon decided wo xight au weil live fi up a littie on Dec. 3lat also. Not waniing ta play favorites, the oid scribe taok in his first ballot too! Il was the Nutcracker - mainly for kida they say - guess ibat's why we liked it. Our only regret was miasing the Canadien. - Loafs battis - ki looked 1k. a dandy on TV - but we gai angry thinking of the Iack-lustme affair. we had atonded - and now for a top attraction aur tst remamned vacant. Oh well, we gat aut for a very interoîting skate, watched about hall a dozen football games (via television af course) ,and took In a tremendous Jr. "A" conteit at the Civic Auditorium. *Ater aur Christmas relaxation, CKLB helped us ta shakeoaur letbmngy by rousing yours truly in time ta give five sportscaits. i. i. . i. i CARL BREWER - "TO PLAY OR NOT TO PLAY" We went for a skate wiib Carl Bnewer an Thusday. Always wanted ta play for the Toronto Maple Leafs ever ince I was a youngster. No - Carl hasn'i returned and the Leafs baven'i gaita the paint et needing speedstens lke we. But we couidn't help ihinking - hore was one of the N.H.L.s top defencemen, niaking himseif a preiiy fair buck, who had quit at the age of 27.

After gaing six games withaut a lons, lncluding clutch victories right in Niagara Falla end Peterborough, Oùmawu Generals suddeniy drapped two, tralght lait week. Thurs. day night, U{amilton Red Wingil, unleauhed a treniendogu third period onslaught to down Oshawa 4-2. 8Saturday, a t different Manlie team than we had scen thia ueuzon, han d Generals a 5-3 setback. That New Year's night attraction Wl.sa- fine hy game a. Marîbaros built up a 3-0 lead and Omhswa«cn back ta trail 4-3 with only a minute left. Everyone has been saying that Bobby Orr eau do eVer thing except play in goal. Saturday ho did just that. 1Wi Ian Young out for a ixth attacker, four Marlies brait. away with only Gmr back. Bobby made a gnou usave on Jim McKenny, but Jim scored on the ensuing penalty ehot Referee Frank Siota asked for police protection ta louve the ice, but he was absolutely correct in the cali. Although we thought ho might have handed out a few more penalties, Siota let both sides away wlth Infractions and 1t dldn't geon to hurt the gamne a bit. Most Jr. "A" officiais seeni ta thinit they have ta hand penaities out if one player looki et anothor this year - and the action han îuffered. The mnotor city crew got a big break when Wmngg downed the Petes 7-5 right in Peterborough, Sunday atter- noon. That kept Oshawa ali alone In tinst place by two points, but they face tough opposition in their next gamhe - Friday night in Niagara Falls. Those high-.ting Red Wing. who have now won fivo straight wiil b. at the Auditorium Saturday night. It looks like a real battle tram here on as the Jr. "A" clubs move into the second hall of their schedule. Genemals have only dropped two in a row once betome, 0 welook for coach "Bep" Guidolin to have them flying for the Frlday and Saturday contests. ' 1 ý i r-Nao "@mM-,Ne
