SPORT ECHOES ‘Boom Boom' Geoffrion E Is Singing Happy Tune

Alibi Week

This Is alibi week for “Sport Echoes". We’ve watch- ed our Combines get humbled 7.2 by a more sprinkling of Royals. Sandy Frizzell dress- ed seven men. and they must have been dressed to kill. for they certainly slaughtered our Combines. We were talking to Sandy between periods. and when the siren went. Sandy excused himself. “Gotta get back to change my lines." he said with a grin. He had a really tough job. One player at a time sitting on the play-

ers‘ bench. boys seemed as chipper as ever when the third rt 3 drawin to a clos

and a goaler is enough for the type of hockey we play down here. Three forward lines is ex- cess baggage. The boys don't get a chance to get up a full head of steam before they are yanked off the ice. If the Com- bines used ten men. they could get rid of their four worst play- ers. and up their quality of per- formance. No. we wouldn't at- tempt to name who those four players would be. We're brave. but we're careful.

Quality More Important

In digging clams. or picking potatoes. the more hired hands. the better. but in hoc- key It ain't necessarily so. Only six men can play at n time. and quality is more Im- portant than quantity. Re- minds us of the story of the rabbit and the lion. ‘l‘he rab- bit was boasting that his frau had given birth to eight bun- nies. while the best Mrs. Lion could do was one. "Yep." ad- mitted the lion. "it's true the old lady could manage only one. but don’t forget -— that one is a on." r Now let's see what we can do

about alibi-ing that 10-4 trounc- ing the Combines took from the

Penguins. Let's see. Maybe the boys had a tough time going down on the slippery highway. Or maybe the Penguin net was a couple of inches narrower than that of the Combines. They‘re pulling those stunts these day.

you know. And while they're in- i

vestigating. we wish someone would measure that counter pin we're always aiming at down at Crest Lanes. We'll bet a ham sandwich that pin is a fraction of an inch skinnier than stand- ard regulations call for. Per- haps we'd better forget alibis. and break down and confess that the Combine hockey team is a very sick man. A defence which allows 17 goals in two games leaves something to be desired.

Impressive Performances

The Penguins have put to- gcther two impressive per- formances. lop-sided victories over Eagles and Combines. and maybe they will really make lvan Doberty‘s dream come true. lvan went out on a pretty long. shaky limb the other night in an interview.

Seems nothing less than a trip to the Ottawa Valley will satisfy him. Okay. Ivan. we’re behind you. and hope you don‘t fall off that limb you're clinging to. Certainly island Junior teams have gone that far before.
