Calgary Wins Grey Cup

In 12-7 Victory Over Ottawa Rough Riders

BY JACK MITCHELL TORONTO. Nov. 28 — (C?) - elped by a strange mental lapse

g Ottawa Rough Riders. a fight-

g Calgary Stampeders team that

t wouldn't be beaten upset the aster-n Canada football champ- ions 12-7 here Saturday and took \he Grey Cup west for the first time since i941.

The underdog Stampeders, aver- ging l0 pounds lighter along the the and given only an 8-5 chance. |howed a roaring crowd of 20.000 amming Varsity Stadium for the iudden-death Dominion final that ury and drive -— and lots of heart ._ sometimes can move mountains.

Never before had a Calgary team presented the west in the Domin- En final.

Five times Riders threw away Ihe ball on fumbles or wild later- Ls. often forced into them by Ealgaryh charging wing-line and ard-drlving tackling.

Despite the errors. the Riders ever stopped trying. They might ave won going away wrere it jot. for the bonehead play —- it i>ould be called nothing else — that gave the alert Calgarians the opening for their winning touch- down in the fourth quarter.

Ottawa had taken a l-0 lead on Tony Goiabs first-quarter single, only to see Stampeders go out' front 6-1 seconds before haiftimel on a time-worn sleeper-play for- ward, taken by Norm Hill from Keith Spdlth for a. touchdown. Early in the third quarter, Bob Paffrsth climaxed a battering drive with a major that put Riders out front again, ‘7-6.

That was the setting for as strange a picture of mass confus- ion as ever seen on any senior gridiron - a play that will be talked about for years to come along with other classic examples of split-seconds th-st decide champ- lonships.

The Riders were on the march near their own 40. On an extens- ion around left end. Paffrath got away n wild lateral pass that went forward and ahead of Pete Knrpuk, the intended receiver. The horn blew to denote an offside pass and Karpuk evidently forgot the important regulation — a horn never ends play, it takes the Whistle to do that.

Karpuk made no apparent effort to recover the ball - nor did any other Rider. Karpuk headed back to where the majority of players of both teams were frozen about the spot where the officials were making the offside pass.

Woody Strode, Calgary's lanky Iegro end, hesitated over the ball. picked it up and ambled down the sideline. A United States import player playing his first Canadian season. he said later that he wasn't too sure what the ruling was on the play, but decided "to run first and find out afterwards."

The whole thing was a picture ln slow motion. Even Strode seem- ed to be going at half-speed, keep- ing one eye turned to the referee to see for a signal that would call him back. A couple of Riders gave chase and Strode was trapped after going about 15 yards. '

But Jim Mltchener- up from Vancouver Bombers for his first senior game. had followed up Strode and the lanky end lateralled s. he was falling to Mltchener, who ran to the Ottawa i0 before he was overhauled.

On the next play, Pete Thodos. who played for the Junior Van- couver Meralomas last season. dodged through the unsettled Riders for a touchdown. When Fred Wllmot made his second bonvert of the game good. it put Calgary out front 12-7 and ended he scoring.

The winning touchdown sparked s Calgary celebration that reach- ed a climax when the colorful cow- boy-garbed supporters tore down the goalposts’ at both ends the moment the game ended. White IO-gallon sombreros went sailing into the air, silk-shlrted support- er; hugged one another in glee snd the Calgary cowboy band struck up wild-west. tunes.

This was the first time the Rocky Mountain foothills city had ever corralled a Grey Cup — the first time Calgary had ever been represented in the final. The 400 or more home-town supporters who travelled more than 2,500 miles Just to see the game made the mart of 1t.

A big factor in the Calgary victory was the brilliant forward psssing of Spslth, the 25-year-old import quarterback who played with Honolulu Rams last season. He completed l1 of 19 forwards for a total gain of 132 yards against the three of l9 Ottawa completed - two by Paffrath and one by Howie Turner.

llarmon Field 58, S’side R.9.l\.F. 49

The Summerslde R.C.A.1".. bas- ketball team made a better show- ing against the Harmon Field hocpsters in their second exhib- ition game Saturday night, going down to defeat by a much smaller margin, the final score being 53 to 49. The first line of the locals was particularly effective against the visitors during one stint, out- scoring the Americans i6 to '1. The home boys did not work the ball 1n as well as the Harmon Field quintet, however, depending more c-n outside sniping and they were also weak on rebounds, rare- ly getting the second try at a bas- ket while the green shirtsd visit- ors sometimes boosted the hall basketwards three or four tlmcs in succession.

As in the previous night's c11- counter, Boso and Lindsay were the chief point-glitters, amassing between them a total of 38 out o.‘ 58 points scored. Carson, habtual top man of the local squad, came within one point of collecting half the R.C.A.F.. total, shooting ele- ven field goals and potting bath ends of a two-throw penaliy shot, the only one he had during the game. Bayne, usually among the leading scorers, got two points only but set up many plays for Carson and Pinsonnenult,

THE GUARDIAN,

The local football season was finally wound up here Friday afternoon \\'ll(‘l'l thc Sccontl football squad from Sziint Duustuns Unl- versily cupturctl thc lslnnd Inter- mediate rugby crown by defeating the Princc of Wales College Wellh- men by a score of 3-0, to brlng fur- ther glory lo thc local Llnlversity in this yours football accomplish- tnenis.

o o o e

With thc senior squad capturing the N. 13.4‘. E. l. intercollegiate series against strong opposition from Mount Allison auui University of New Brunswick and only miss- ing out by thc slimmest of margins for the Maritime intercollegiate title against Saint Francis Xavier. the second squad rounded off .1 very commendable scnson by re- taining the intermediate title.

o o - o

The intermediate series was one of the closest and most evenly matched contests to be witnessed here for many years. and despite the fact that the Welshmen lost out in thc fifth and final came. thc-y were a courageous bnntl of smooth working gridiron specialists without a shadow of doubt. and are to be commended for their stunti- out performnnce during this year's football season.

a v o o Since lust Thurstl'\_\"s City Lon- cue hockey encounter hctwccu Navy and Prince of Wales, this col- umn lms received several friendly criticisms from players and fans, concerning the crediting of assists to the wrong players. l’ wlizin! that a nusL-iltc in vi-nrlili an m. sisl 1o ilv- wrung i\l.'!_\rr ruulrl mu] would spoil sonic of Ill!‘ pl:i_vc-r‘s chances ln the lIi(Il\‘l(lll(ll ring honor". in lnngtio .. the wrilr-r would like l0 pninl out lhut the customary prnctico insofar as the press is concerned. is to take into consideration credits given by referees.

I I I As far as this column is concern- ed. it is possible that assists ore Elven where they are not justified and probable too. that some players are not getting ccczlit for ringing in on plays where credit is due. However, without the services of an official scorer. the best possible tally is being kept.

- o o

Due to the fact that the referees themselves have a. pretty tough job in keeping check on the play, and no one is infallible. a solution to the problem would be the appoint- ing of an official scorer who would have no other duties lo perform other than seeing flint the proper credit is given to the deserving players.

Boston Bruins Win Two Week-end Games; Wings Leafs, Hawks Take One

(AP) goalie

BOSTON, Nov. 28 - The Boston Bruins put Turk Broda out of the white- washing business tonight by romping over his Toronto Maple Leafs, 8-2 in a National Hockey League game before a packed 13,900 crowd, at, the Boston Gar- den. Broda had shut out Mont- real Canadiens and the New York Rangers in his previous starts.

That Toronto goalie had not been scored upon for 135 minutes w-llen Pete Babando launched the League leaders‘ savage attack by rifting in a 35-foot shot during the third minute of the opening period.

It was obvious throughout that the Mable Leafs‘ heavy schedule _qhey played four games in five nights-had taken its toll but even tit that the Bruins were forced to go into action without their two outstanding aces. centre Milt Schmidt and defenceman Jack Crawford.

Some of the greatest acts in America were brought to Charlottetown, notably the California Sky Review. an aer- ial act of unparalleled skill and beauty as well as supporting acts such as animal acts. bicycle acts. tixnbling arts and thr- New York review with a personnel of twenty.
