SPOIRTopgcsI 87 Frank Mohun su-7234X KRAMP'S In rs der ta get tht. coluinn written before the ps-as deadlIne, we can't watt for a winner ci thse Town Soitball Senior League final sertes. Barrlng rein or belaw freezing tempes-atures, the textes thould be declded this weck. In fact a Stephen Fuels' victory last night would have given thein the ses-les four games taý two. But a Kramp's win forces a seventh and decldlng claih, Thursday night, 7:30 at the Memnorlal Park. Last week the Furniture men won 3-1 ta tic the sertes as George Stephen and Dtck Stata hooked up in a mound duel that Baw each pitcher tossing a live-hitter. In Uic fiith game. the Fuels unleashed a 16 bit attack, saw a 7-0 lead go down the drain, and hold on ta post an 8-7 decision, although Kramp's were beld ta eight safeties. T1hât just goes ta illustrate that anything can happen in soltball. The gamne's neyer oves- untîl tle final out, particularly ln exclting Town League action, and if you thlnk we're predicting a wianer - no way 1 Pes-haps we wiil be forgiven for hoping It Io Stephen FPuels who wln the championsbip. A sports editor lan't sup- posed to be biased ln a local aflais- of this sort, but w. happen to have a Fuels' uniiarm. t t t i. t GENERALS - A NEW LOOK TEAM You wlll really need a ps-ogram to tell who the Oshawa Generals are this season, wtth guys like Ron Dussiaume, Joe Robertson, Dune Wilson and Jim Whittaker gone due ta over-age. Dale Talion, supposedly Canada's top midget draft last year, bas been traded ta Toronto Marîboros, while Brian Moreuz lu attcnding Denver University on a hockey scholar- ,hlp and Bs-yaa Slywchuk Is et Sudbury's Laurentian University. Bill Yeo and Brian Rose, up fsrn the Jr. "B"l Crushmen, should give Oshawa top goal-tendtng. John Ciayton, whe bai been named team captain, and mucb-improved second ycar mnar, Bob Stewart are back on defence. Gcrry Methe, Osh- awa's first draft cholce - 16 year oid fs-arn Richmond Hill looks like the Pierre Pilotte type af defender, while big Dave McFadden has already made a few rival Jr. "A" per- formes-s feel his presence. Dave Puikkinen, a 19 year-old blonde defeneeman, only played high school ln Sudbury - op bas a lot ta learn - the assistant general manager Ivan Davie liked bis play, and this big fellow cauld be a pleasant surprise. This year assistant captains will be Peter Vipond and Fred O'Donnell, wbile af local Interest, Harry Gay bas joined th. Generais' board of directes-s. O'Donnell, one of Uic best skaters on the club, i. ne stranger to Generais fans, while Vipond has been extremely Impressive. Oshawa secured a couple of outstanding players tn the Talion dccl tn Rick Kesseil and Bob Kelly. It wauldn't surprise us If Kessell finlsbed in the league's top ten scorers, Wie Kelly Is the bard-bitting, never-say-die winger that tloesn't know the mceaning af quit. Ivan Boldirev, an excellent centre, fram last year, Is back, clong with AI Quintilian and Tom Foxcroft, two of the Generals top wlngers. Foxcroft, off ta a great start, sollected Il1 points in the first four pre-seasan games. Others likcly ta make the club include, Steve Cardwell, a rugged winger, Chuck Gyles, a defenceman turned farward, who toiled with the Generals on loan from Marîboros last year. Bath Gyles and Foxcroit were aiso Invalvcd tn the five for one deal for Talion. Gerry Welsh, who bas played parts o! a couple of seasons wtth the Generals rates a good chance, while Terry O'Rcilly, with last yeas's Crushmen, if he does't eara a spot on the rester, wlll be a haady guy ta have around in case of Injuries. Oshawa wil play ten home games on Satus-day nights, @Il but one going at .7:15. The December 2nd contcst is an .afternoon affair stasting at two o'clock. Following iast Sun- day's apener, the Generals have tea more Sunday dates, witb gXame time slated for 7:30. The motos- city aggregatlon wil also have five 7:30 Tuesday night contests, while New Year's Day at twa o'cloclr completes the 27 game home schedule. Inctdentally anc ai the sts-angest plays we have ever seen occusred ln an exhibition game againet St. Catharines Black Hlawks. And we's-e stili realiy not sure how It started.It came fsrn a face-o>ff, foU owlng a battie that sesulted ln par ai Gencrals and the same number ai Hawks had bei* banished with fighting majors. New we're flot sure whcther the players lined up ws-ongiy or not but the next thing you know Gerry Methe Is going ln on bis own goal-tender, but Just fails ta seach a pass from Bob Stewart. However, the iuaniest thlng of ail - was that St. Catharines were tryiag ta stop them from scoring ! One ai the players ta watch this year in the Jr. "A" wtlQ undoubtedly be a maritimer by the name ai Bob. Shee- han, who scos-ed 120 goals la 90 games over the past two seasans with Halifax Canadiens. Sheehan played twa exhibition games Ia Oshawa, the fisst with Niagara Falls Flyers and the second tn a Black Hawk.s' unlformn. Thse transfer foc as we uadcrstand it tsaa maximum of $500.00, but we wcre Iafos-med that bath teams had bired lawycrs, and wes-e illing ta go ta court over the rigbts ta Sheehan. He wound up on the St. Catharines s-ster. Although it's still plenty early ta attempt predictions, it would appear ta us that Toronto Mas-Iboros have the team ta beat. St. Catharines with a f ew hold-overs, and two or, three top notch rookies should be a contender as weIl. Oshawa, Peterbor-ough and Ottawa should show great J Improvemnent, and although they lose quite a tew, the Mont- real C anadiens pro bab[y wiii tce a good club when they!I BHS Girls Athletic Assn.

Merchants cxtended the series to the limit, and Sunday iat Midland, aiter George "lGeneral"1 Joncs had cracked a two run double the score was 3-2 after seven innings of 5play. 3 The hometown Indians wound up winning 4-2, but even 3 n defeat, Bowmanville probably played its best game of 1the scason. Judging by the crowds la attendance at the two final playoff attractions here, it appears that basebal 1 on the way back. A great deai of credit must go ta Fred "Buck'* Cowle, who got out and really started the bail rolling. Clint Ferguson, the pitching hero, In the Ontario champ- ionship win over Listowcl, several years aga, took over as manager, and Murray Tighe, a familiar sight, as a member of the executive in years gone by, was back, ready and >willing ta help out. r To the management, players and sponsoring merchants, we say thanks for bringing Intermediate 'baIl back to Bow- manville. It was a Job well donc!1 t t t i. t TALENT GALORE We had to feel just a little bit sorry for Bob MacDonald, papular owner of the Bowmanvillc Country Club, Saturday nlght, when Bob was on hand to distribute prizes and trophies to the golf ing champions. Bob, on the tournament committee at Toronto's Bayview Golf Club had been up sînce 6 a.m. ta arrange things for their closing day, wherc hie alsa awarded prizes there. Aiter 18 hales of golf and his many duties Bob was a rather tlred individual. Perhaps the owner wasn't up ta par, but manager Larry Heffering showed that not only is hie a fine golfer, curler, former hockey player, referee or what have you, but he Is also a talentcd Individual. Larry plays a mean piano and warbles a pretty fair tune. And how about this Phil Trudelle?7 You would think belng able ta drive a baîl something like 300 yards would be enough. But Phil is quite a singer too, so if Andy Willia* is reading this, he'd better look out. Saturday's wind-up dance, buffet, and presentation of prizes was an excellent affair, certainly ln keepIng with t4 fine efforts which have been put forth to eventually mnake this one If not the best course in the area. I know this reporter appreciated the facilities we had at aur disposai over the past season, so much ln fact that il we can arrange a busy schedule, we'd sure like ta curl on&, regular basis. How about you ?
