-'il1 i P The Canadian Statesman, Eowmnvfe, DMe 24, lmS SPORTopucsI By Frmnk Mohuus 62347234ý LEADING TE WAY lf Bebby Orr can reniamin healthy througheut Uic catire canipaigai, he la a certaInty te smash Uic assista and peints record fer detencemen. At asat look, Bobby had elght goals and 33 assista already, and if he continues his curreat pace, Uic ex Oshawa General star would finish with 107 points. As a matter of tact; Orr fi only 17 assista off the record 50 set last season by Pat Stapleton. It luiteresting te note that Frank Mahovlich la rightl Up there with a top league mark ot 15 geais se far, which is about a dozen more than he had at tbis Urne ast year. Bobby j Hull was the leader Iast Uie around with 21 at this stagt inl the going. Although missing many garnes due to Uhc contraci dispute, the golden jet la now up te seven. r UcPerhaps an indicator of how bad the Leafs are - or ti tewestern division la stili flot on a par with the east. Toronto, Who used te do fairly well in their own group and fall fiai agaInst the so-called easy touches, are barely over the .50 mark against expansion teas. Needless to say, I the eastern section their record la sad. Bowmanviile's Brent Hughes is becoming somewhat ofà badman, at least prior te Uic weekend's hostilities. Brent ha' logged 77 minutes I the sin bin over 24 games, tied for runner-up in the rough-neck honora with Earl Helakala of Philadeiphia. Leading the penalty parade is Carol Vadnais wlth 115 minutes. The eastern badman Io Orr, with 67 minutes at last count over 29 games. John Ferguson has served five fewer minutes, but big John has played il fewer encounters. Bernie Parent picked up another assist last week, his third of the season, te become the only active goal-tender in tV-N"L te gai-fer three I one campaign. PLENTY 0F SKIING! That wonderful world of snow th:t came tumbling down latThursday, wl certainly mk h skiera happy, particu- larly those on vacation during Christmas and New Years. With excellent skiing now i evidence at the Kirby Hills, Uic Oshawa Ski Club, after providing the past four days of j skiing (Saturday until Tuesday) will suspend operations for Wcdnesday and Christmas Day. Atter th at, the T-bar and rope tow wll be going full blasi jfrom December 26th right through to January 4th. That's 10 consecutive days! Cost to student members is two dollars for the T-bar and a dollar for the rope tow. Non-members pay $3.00 and $2.00 respectively. Unfortunately, we understand there will be no buses for Bownianville skiers. The sports editor wifl be away for a well-deserved Christ- mas vacation by the time you- are reading this column, and we hope to get in a bit of skllng, skating and relaxing by watchrng the NFL playoff s. But we're hoptng that the siopes will stiil have plenty of snow for next week, when we're planning to ski for live days at the Oshawa Ski Club over New Year's. In fact for the first time since television, we will likely pass Up ail of those bowl games, te take to the hilis. t. j. t t 1t LIVING IN THE PAST It really makes nie laugh, when you hear of Mr. Avery Brundage, 82-year-old president ot the International Olympic Committee, invoking the rule that ail players participating lI the World Tournarnent wlth professionals, wiil lose their amateur statua. For years now, Canada has been torred to cempete by -'e!ng "amateur" performers In the Olyniplcs, although we could employ a few re-instated pros for the world teurney. ThiasUie around, with the global title te be staged next March I Winnipeg andi Montreal, Bunny Ahearne, czar of the International Ice Hockey Federation, perniltted the poor old Canadians te use nine pros - providing they didn't play any games In the National Hockey League ts season. Now It seenis Uiat Canada won't be allowed te use any professionals, unles Uey have a chunk ot papers that quali- fies theni as re-lnst.ated. That weuld eliminate the plan where- by NHL teanis would ailow their top tarm club players te join thc Canadlan rester iUrne for Uic World championships. 0f course, apparently ater going along with the plan, now Russa and Sweden have stated their Intentions cf pull- ing eut if Canada uses any protessionals. Tt kind cf makes you wonder just Who constitutes an amateur. Certainly any athîcte capable of makig Canada', national rester. must hve been pald for playlng sormewhere along Uic Une. In tact, it was wldely publicized Uiat goal-tender Ken Dryden was offered more Ua just a tew bucks to Join thc Nats. And what about those Russlans? You can't cali them amateurs by any stretch et the Imagination. They do have very understàading employer$, to shlow thern theUicre off te travel ne~ extenslvely - Uic Soviet gevernment. I don' tUilnk we would be wrong I statlng that the comrades are actually more professions! than teamnihe i NHL. They tel us that the Russians are on skates longer than Uic NHL'ers, evea tote ietent of probably playîng mort games. as well Us practising their precision passing. We understand that they spend a seid month playing soccer, etc.,1 te get aI shape prier te the seasen. Needlesa te Say, they don't do it for aothing. Tt ls stl cur opinion that a game played strictly between Canada's beat and the Rusians' best, would be ne contest. Bobby Orr was sensational when he was la action against Uie Ruskies, as a mnember ot a Junior "ýA" Al-Star team. He was only about 16 att Uic Urne. Wonder what he weuld do now? t. t. t *t* j A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! HA.&PpY TOflPD.
