A VERY FEW MONTHS ago nobody was the least bit in- terested in grabbing Marcel Bonin from the Canadiens for the $15,000 waiver - price.

~~ ‘@oday if the tSanley Cup champions put him on the block, bidders would be knocking each other over to get a grip on him.

Marcel’s amazing showing in the semi-finals and finals of the Stanley Cup playoffs has made the difference and it certainly is not surprising that Bonin’s stock has soared so high.

TEN GOALS and five assists in eleven playoff games is @ most creditable showing for any player, let alone a fellow who ‘was not supposed to set the world on fire But that’s exactly the record of this young gentleman who was shipped down to Roches- ter for two weeks last December. In order to do this, Canadiens

were forced to put him on sale for $15,000. No club was the least

“bit interested and Marcel’s pride was indeed hurt.

folks k raising the roof because of the demotion. sean had Borsa friends who were certain he belonged with “the great Canadiens’ club. They kept up their clamoring and finally Bonin was brought back. With the Rocket out with in- juries, he went to left wimg on the line with Henri Richard and Dickie Moore. At that time he had four goals and ten assists. When he finished the season he had 13 goals and 30 assists.

THEN CAME the playoffs and his 15 point total, surpassed

only by Moere with 5 goals and 12 assists.

*\

It has indeed been a great comeback by Bonin, who for a time this~season, must have felt his National Hockey League ‘ career was coming to an end. Those folks who kept reminding Senator Molson that Marcel belonged with the Canucks must really feel happy about the whole affair. And you can bet Cana- diens themselves are happy they called him back to the fold.

You couldn’t have found a much handier guy for those play- |

offs. Could Canadiens have conquered without his great point- ing?

Well, at least it would have been a lot tougher.

WE READ with a real chuckle where Howie Meeker, former

coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, wired Carl Voss, superintendent of referees in the National Hockey League, to untangle a problem involving penalties in a game in Canada’s newest province.

The reason for the chuckle was this: We believe that Mr. Voss has enough problems of his own handling the position he now occupies. Meeker should let \the poor fellow alone. After the Red Storey incident and the blasting by Eddie Powers, we would imagine Carl has business of his own that needs attention much more urgently than the Newfoundland affair.

AND SPEAKING of Red Storey reminds us that the latest betting is that the redhead will be asked to return to duty im the oe to have come from a reli- able

It would be nice to see the big fellow back in action as an official but we hope if he returns he'll get more front office backing than he did after that fracas in Chicago.

REMEMBER DICK FARRELL who hurled such brilliant re Hef ball in last year’s all-star classic?

Dick, a member of the Philadelphia Phillies, has been having # rough ever since that July afternoon. It was rougher when manager Eddie Sawyer got through with him the other day.

‘WE HAD A CHAT with Brian Lewis yesterday and he is

chalked full of baseball enthusiasm for the coming season. Brian is the young man who, late last July, took hold of a group of junior baseball players and came up with a real classy sapeenta . These lads won the Island junior créwn and gave John. a real battle before bowing out in the N.B.-P.E.I.

don’t interd to wait until July this season to get going. In fact, Lewis states’ that workouts should be underway within the next ten days. New uniforms are on the way for the boys and high hopes are entertained for a most successful season.

HE LEGION AND BRIAN would like very much to be able to bring a mainland team here every Sunday in July and August. They believe—and we heartily agree—that fans here would wel- come the chance of seeing competition from the mainland. It will cost money for guarantees but Lewis feels the public will give sufficient support to make the club at léast break even.

In addition, Lewis informs us that there ts a strong possibility of another junior team being formed im the city. He thinks there is plenty of talent for such a team and is hoping that it will become a reality.

THE KING’S COUNTY JUNIORS, who made such a fine

The husky first baseman leads the league in* home runs with five and is deadlocked for the top spqt in runs batted in with Ernie Banks of Chicago Cubs. Each has 12. Cepeda has hit safely in each of the Giants’ nine games and showed a .38 batting mark through Sunday’s games.

In his first nine games of 1958, Orlando had only two homers, eight, RBIs and a .316 batting percentage. He did not collect his fifth circuit blow until May 4. MAYS STARTS SLOWLY

Willie Mays, the Giants’ big gun, is hitting only .243. But two other members of Bill Rigney’s chtb are off to exrellent starts. They are Filipe Alou and Jim Davenport, both sophomores. Alou is hitting 379 and Daven- port .371.

Meanwhile, Hank Aaron of Mil- waukee and George Strickland of Cleveland have taken early leads in the big league batting races. Aaron has 14 hits in 28 tries and paces the National League with a .538 average. Strickland, who was out of organized baseball last year, heads the American with a .478 mark.

Veteran Alvin Dark of the Cubs and young Don Demeter of Los Angeles are running at .423. Wally Moon of the Dodgers and Gino Cimoli of St. Louis, who switched uniforms in a _ winter trade, also are helping their new clubs. Moon is off to .360 start and Cimoli is batting .353.

Chicago Club ‘Files. Suit

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (‘AP)— Chicago Cardinals of the National Football League filed suit Wed- | Wilson from playing in Canada’s Western Interprovincial League next season.

The suit was described by the NFL club as the first court test of an agreement between the two leagues to end player raiding.

The Cardinals asked that Wil- son be enjoined ‘‘from playing for the Edmonton Eskimos or any other professional team than the complainant during the 1959 pro- fessional football season.”

The Cardinals contend that Wil- son, an end, made an oral agree- ment with them to play in 1959 for $11,000.

The team said Wilson was paid $1,000 to seal the deal.

Dunlops Take 2-Game Lead

TORONTO (CP) — Piaying- coach Sid Smith and captain Harry Sinden each scored two goals and one assist Wednesday night to spark Whitby Duniops to a 5-2 victory in the second game of the Allan Cup final.

The Dunlops, Allan Cup win- ners in 1957 and world amateur hockey champions at Oslo in 1958, sandwiched strong first and third periods around a good sec- ond-stanza ‘showing by Vernon for ithe victory.

The Canadians. who won the Allan Cup by defeating Chatham Maroons in the Canadian Ama- teur Hockey Association senior final in 1956, were sadly out- played in the first period when Whitby took a 2-4 lead as they peppered Vernon netminder Hal Gordon with 19 shots.

Vernon marksmen were play- ing-coach George Agar and de- fencmean-captain Willie Schmidt.
