Biography



A graduate of Daniel McIntyre Collegiate in 1946, Doug was a dominant
player in junior and senior men's basketball leagues for the 10 years
in which he played, except for a three-year stint in the U.S.A. from
1949 to 1952.

Doug played most of his basketball in the senior league with the
"Paulins". During his five years with the Paulins, Doug was a League
All-Star in 1948, 1949, 1954, and 1955. He was a starter with the
Paulins when they won the Canadian Senior Men's Championship and
represented Canada at the World Championships in 1954.

While playing in the U.S.A., he received a try-out invitation in 1952 with the St. Louis "Hawks" of the N.B.A.
