MONTE CARLO NIGHT -, Out Manvers way, where yet another new arena is nearing comple- tion, they are planning a big Monte Carlo night in February, hoping to add a considerable amount of money to'theîr coffers. The ice area is much the same as Newcastle's but they have included a large auditorium that will be used as a community centre for dances, etc. And are much further along the road to paying for the structure than either Newcastle or Orono. Keep an eye open for the Monte Carlo date and plan to attend. NEW DURHAM CHAIRMAN - Sports fans in the area will be interested to learn that Dr., Keith Slemon was recently elected as ehairman of the Board of Governors of Durham College in Oshawa. He has been a supporter of the college for a number of years and has an intense interest in physical fitness as evidene- ed by the picture in last week's Statesman showing him playing paddle bail in his base- ment. We can recaîl his early days when Dr. Siemon was a walking encyclopedia on pro- fessional bail players in the USA leagues. He knew the record of ýevery player and team complete with batting averages, stolen bases and the rest. Congratulations Keith on the new challenge and good luck. MOTORCYCLES -'on ice. The village of Bewdley will be a noisy spot on Sunday, February 5th when the Oshawa Competition Motorcycle Club will host the Canadian Motorcycle Studded Fire Ice Races on Rice Lake. With over $2,000 inipiespu trophies, racers are coming from a conidrable distance to compete. Canada's No. 1 daredevil, Karel Soucek will attempt a motorcycle leap to set the first distance record on ice. It all starts at 12:30. WHOOPS - Another error occurred in the captions under the Young Canada Day pictures last week. In the Janetville -gamne at the end of a long day, between St. Marys Cernent and Unionville, we had Capt. Rick Mackey of Bowmanville receiving, the trophy, but Assis- tant Captain Ed Gruyters took his place. Our regrets. HOCkEY GREAT DIES - Last Friday, Aubrey Victor (Dit) Clapper died at St. Joseph's General Hospital in Peterborough at age 70. A hockey Hall of Famer he was a National Hockey League star centre and defenceman, played for Boston Bruins in 20s, 30s and .40s and was a member of three Stanley, Cup championship teams. During his last few years, he has been confined to a wheelchair because of a stroke. SILVER STICK - The McGregor Hardware Major Atoms won their first two games in the Silver Stick International hockey tournament in Sarnia on the weekend but were eliminated by London in the semi-final in a close game that could have gone either way. Needless to say they were disappointed. Biggest hassie of the affair occurred when an Illinois team showed up with a nine-year-old girl goalie. She was not allowed to play, the rules did not permit it, but the resultant publicity caused a considerable amount of worry to the organiz- ers. SOON B READY - InV On Satuirdayxqitefa Q-fewm you ask.

Flamingos a Pasting By Don Wilcox Bowmanville Port Darling- ton Marina and Hotel Junior C's played Port Perry Flamingos in the Darlington Sports Palace Tuesday night, January l7th. Eagles winning by an 8 to 5 count breaking the spell which Flamingos have held over Eagles in the Darlington rink. Team play which has so much to do with a team's success or failure, bas been Eagles' strong point again this season. At times a player might have a tendency to hold the puck, trying to score a goal rather than setting up a teammate, especially if both players are in the race for scoring honours. Such might be the case between Ted Puk and Gary Cox who play on the same lîne and both in the race for top pointman of the season. But Puk and. Cox exchanged goals in the third period, setting up each other, proving they are fine teammen and not individualists. Jerry Johnston had a big three goal and three assist night. Charlie Durwood in net had a busy night, facing the Eagle barrage especially in the third when Eagles pu.t five pucks behind the tiring Durwood. Eagles clicked for five power play goals exercis- ing excellent puck control. Port Ferry opened the scoring with two goals, Jayl Adam counting both assisted by Len Thornbury. Eagles took advantage of Port Ferry playing two short, John Conboy scoring on a point drive, assisted by Jerry ~Johnston and Gary Cox to finish first period scoring. Eagles' power play again clicked after Brian Simpson had bounced a shot off the crossbar, Ted Puk scoring from Brian Simpson and Jerry Johnston. Flamingos scored on a soft shot along the ice, Bill Owen from George Burnett. Jerry Johnston's power play goal the result of a perfect passout by Gary Cox. Thi rd, period scoring was started by the Puk-Cox duo, first Puk from Cox, both teams a man short, then Cox from Puk on the moneypass. Eagles' power play clicked again after sustained pressure, Brian Simpson scoring from Johnston and Cox. Flamingos scored from a slot drive, Stu Cochrane from Mike Adam. Johnston counted a Marina power play goal, assisted to Puk and Cox. Eagles' final counter, the result of rookie Gary Dussel- dorp breaking down wing, putting on the brakes then setting Johnston up for the. goal. loche Welding D own Port Hlope Rut Wèiloped bt' Peterborough In a regular league game length of the ice and passed to Silver Stick in Port Huron phayed Wednesday nigbt et Mark Mathews then to Michigan against Toledo Ohio.

Kevin Tink made the third goal possible by checking bis man off the puck in the corner and giving it to Mark Mathews who set Dana Peebles up for his first goal of the night. At this time, it seemed Bowmanvîlle might literally fill the Port Hope net with pucks but the visitors scored a goal on a Bowman- ville give away which gave them a lift and ended the first period 3 to 1.

Lose to Peterborough The Major Bantams visited Peterborough Sunday after- noon for a- league game and received a lesson in how hockey should be played, when the game was over our guys had absorbed a 4 to 0 defeat. In this game, there were very few brigbt spots, truly a team defeat but then maybe our guys didn't play that badly as they were checked dizzy by a solid Peterborough team effort. Let's hope our team got a bad game out of their system because on Tbursday, January 26, at 1 p.m. they start play for the International The Don Plain Bantams travelled to Ajax on Sunday, January 22 and skated off witb a 5-2 win. The Toros took only 10 seconds to score when Barry Cullen jammed home a goal moutb pass from Ed Osborne., The Toros went abead 2-0 at the 12:40 mark on a goal by Ruddy assisted by Ed Osborne, and Rob Kennett.

Frank Toros seem to be in top form heading into playoffs. On Saturclay, January 21 in Bowmanvillk, the Toros met Oshawa which they won 4-1 increasing their winning streak to 3 games. In the first period neither team could put together much of an offence because of the tight checking by both teams, until Tim Preston put the Toros ahead with a goal on a rebound in ffont of the net. However the goal was 'disal. lowed as the referee ruled that another Toro was staiding in the crease when the puck entered the net. Cui L Cawker then scored the only officiai goal of the first period at 12:19, assisted by Ken Parilisin and Ken Spohn. Mike Glass tied the score for the Toros at 6:52 of the second period with an assist going to Steve Taylor. Paul Stocker's, beautiful goal at 8:20 put the Toros ahead for the fîrst time in the game and the Toros did a good job killing a 2 man disadvan- tage. Bowmanville scored into the Oshawa empty net on a goal by Dan Ritchie, assisted by Glen German and Kevin Norton. With 5 seconds left Tim Preston rounded out the scoring with Troy Wood assist- ing.
