"SPORTS MENU By Geo. H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' . PERRY MOSS would be as glad to shake the snow and rost of Montreal as anybody else, given the opportunity -- vut with the chilling breezes that prevailed around his ears wer since real early in November -- who wouldn't like to te "fired" (they actually asked him to resign) -- as long as héy gave you 50 or 60 thousand bucks in contract but actual- y "unearned" salary, to make purchase of a plane ticket 'eally simple ?. The foolball filberts are having a ball now-- hey've got a hot stove league topic that puts baseball's win- er trade winds to shame, Ted Workman, owner of Alouettes, who back a few months ago, ponderously proclaimed there vas no thought of getting rid of coach Perry Moss, is now susy doing a fancy cover-up. He has almost side-stepped the Perry Moss departure by devoting his time to denying that the Alouettes are for sale. It has been confirmed that tome of the Alouette Club directors are themselves mem- vers of a syndicate which has made a concrete offer to buy the club from Workman. The one stipulation made by the group that offered to purchase the club, was that Perry Moss be replaced. Moss himself has now said, "I was tired." x x x x MEANWHILE, back in Tabby-Town, Jim Trimble has intimated that he will bid for the job in Montreal -- but he wants to go in as coach and general manager -- in other words, he wants to run the club alone, not share the respon- sibilities, and the work and worry, with any co-worker, Ham- ilton Tiger-Cats have intimated that while Trimble's contract has another year to run, they will not stand in his way. Trimble has had a splendid record with his teams in Hamil- ton, as far as the Eastern Conference championships are concerned. He hasn't enjoyed too much success in the way of winning The Grey Cup but he has given the Hamilton fans a top performer in five of his seven seasons there. It's no secret that Trimble is ready to move out of Hamilton and getting to the managerial level, with the Alouettes, would definitely be a step up, in Canadian football, and also likely in salary. Toronto Argos have established a pattern of "winning the Grey Cup in July' now for the past few years but this time, in January, we had Montreal Alouettes and Hamilton Tiger- Cats grabbing off a big chunk of sports news space, Ottawa Rough Riders had better hurry through with something spec- fal, right away, or they're going to be left out in the cold. We can expect somethig special from Frank Clair's hiberna- tion spot, almost any day now. x x x x SPORTS BITS: -- Neil McNeil Maroons whomped Bramp- ton 7-Ups 10-2 last night in Brampton. The information is of vital importance to Oshawa Junior hockey fans since it means that the Generals are now only four points behind Brampton and fourth place, final playoff berth -- and the Qphawa club now has two games "in hand' -- they've played two less than the 7-Ups, If they can win those two games -- they'll be tied for fourth spot and when they meet Brampton next » time -- it could be the game that decides the playoff. posi- Vian. . . .» TONI SPISS, Austrian national ski coach and for- mer world's champion, who was acclaimed in a glamorous fanfare as the ski director of the new Devil's Glen club, near Collingwood, didn't show for the Sports Celebrities din- ner Wednesday night in Toronto and the reason -- he was racing in Wisconsin. The club directors have dropped him, which was the smart thing to do. After all there are other skiers in the world! . . . OSHAWA RINKS competing in the Quebec International Bonspiel, are starting to zone in on the same event and may be meeting each other today. A Wau- watosa rink ousted Norm Allan's rink 10-5 in the Wedgewood Bowl play and Ken Conlin's rink lost 12-10 in the Dow Trophy play but Bert White's rink won 10-8 in the second round of the same event. In the St. Lawrence Trophy play yesterday, Bert Neil, Norm Allan and 'Preem" Whiteley all skipped their rinks to first-round victories. Oscar Parker's rink won their games in both the first and second rounds of the Paquet Trophy play.

Jelineks _, three-goal }puck in the net in his last three By BRUCE STOVEL Canadian Press Staff Writer Chicago's Bobby Hull and Montreal's Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion, the two play- ers who have scored more goals in ohne season than any- one else playing in the National Hockey League, returned from injuries Thursday night, The results were spectacular, Hull scored three goals and assisted on two others as the league + leading Black Hawks drubbed last + place Boston Bruins 9-2, The blond ace didn't appear much troubled by the thigh injury suffered last Satur- day, when he crashed into a goal post while scoring. Czech-born centre Stan Mikita also scored three goals for the Hawks, Toronto centre Red Kelly also fired three in the night's other game, a 6-3 win by Leafs over Montreal Canadiens, There had only been four scorers this veason in the league before Thursday night. BOOMER, BREWER BUMP In the hotly - contested Tor- onto - Montreal game, Geof- frion had barely stepped on the ice after a 12-game absence when he and Carl Brewer, the Leafs hardrock defenceman, at- tempted to square off in froat of the Toronto net. The would - be combatants, hurling insults and clawing at referee Eddie Powers and the linesmen, kept trying to get at each other near the penalty box. Powers then cracked down. He added a misconduct to each Player's minor, and tacked a game misconduct on Geoffrion for his unruliness. This auto- matically levies a $75 fine on the fiery right winger, com- pared with $25 for Brewer. Toronto's win enabled Leafs to take over sole possession of second place, two points be- hind Hawks and two points ahead of Canadiens. Detroit is three points behind Montreal. The Wings have a fat 16-point edge over the fifth-place Rang- ers. Kelly scored the first two leaf goals, after Canadiens had taken a 2-0 lead midway through the first period on goals by Gilles Tremblay and Dickie Moore. SCORES PENALTY GOAL Kelly's third goal was scored late in the third period on a penalty shot, the first success- ful penalty shot of the season. But it was the playing MP's second goal that turned the 15,334 fans, largest Montreal crowd of the season, against Powers, From then on, Powers was given showers of abuse by the crowd. | Kelly flicked in a rebound of a close-in shot by lihemate Bob! Nevin at 10:20 of the second period. Canadiens claimed Ne-| vin was illegally in the goal crease. | Montreal goalie Jacques Plante skated out to centre ice and broke his stick on the ice in protest. Coach Toe Blake of Canadiens caused his team a bench penalty on the play through his heated anguments NHL BIG SEVEN By THE CANADIAN PRESS Stan Mikita, the scrappy Chi- cago centre who hadn't put the games, had no trouble finding the range against Boston goal- tender Ed Johnston Thursday night.

That was the word from Bur- lington, Ont., Thursday as spec- ulation mounted about who would succeed Perry Moss with the Montreal Alouettes. | Jim Trimble, a six-year man with Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the most successful coach in the Eastern Football Confer- ence, said he is "'interested" in the job. He said he will probably meet today with Hamilton's general manager Jake Gaudaur to dis- cuss the matter. His contract with the Ticats-- he's led them to five Grey Cup appearanecs in the six years-- has another season to run, "But I don't think Jake would stand in the way of any pos- sibility of my advancement," said Trimble. "I want to stay in Canada and the Montreal job looks very interesting." He said that if he doesnt' hear from Montreal's owner M. E. (Ted) Workman in a couple of days "I will approach him." MAY NOT WORK OUT But Workman had something specific in mind and it might not work out, Trimble made it clear that he would only be interested in suc- ceeding Moss if it was all the way--both as coach and general manager. Workman said meanwhile that he planned on getting a coach separately and he said he Trimble May Fill Lark Vacant Spot "certainly wouldn't be enthusi- astic" if Trimble was thinking of combining both posts. In firing Moss Thursday-- Perry was with the Als ut $30,- 000 a season for three years-- Workman said simply it was the result of a policy clash, But insiders say it was be- cause Moss refused to be stripped of the coaching job to remain with the club only as general manager and it was put to Perry as an ultimatum, Workman also said Thursday that he isn't interested in seliing the team, DENIES ANY SALE Commenting on a report of an offer by a seven-man Mont- real syndicate willing to put up $300,000 he said: 'I'm just not interested-- that's all there is to it." So far, he said, at least three men have applied for the coach- ing job. But he dida't name them. Indian Jack Jacobs, who quit the Als as a Moss assistant at the end of last season, js said to 'be interested. So is Leo Cahill, another as- sistant coach, recommended by Moss as a successor, Meanwhile, it was reported Thursday in Corvallis, Ore., that second - string Montreal quarterback Joe Francis won't be back next year. Francis, a) Hawaiian from Oregon State, was named assistant coach at Kelly's penalty shot goal came at 13:51, when Powers ruled Montreal defenceman Jeay - Guy Talbot findered Kelly's clear scoring chance by jumping the Leaf centre from -- at the Mohtreal blue ne, Kelly, a 35-year-old veteran, drilled the puck low into a cor- ner from about 15 feet out. Plante was beaten cleanly on the play. In Boston, the Hawks' sine goals equalled the season's high for a team. The Rangers beat the same Bruins 9-3 last month. Bill (Red) Hay, centre on the "million + dollar' line between Hull and Murray Balfour, scored a goal and added four assists. Ron Murphy and de- fenceman Pierre Pilote scored the other Chicago goals, LED 5-0 Hawks jumped into a 5-0 lead in the first period with Hull and Mikita each scoring twice, Jean- Guy Gendron and rookie centre Bob Leiter scored Bruins' goals in the second period, but Chi- cago came back with four more in the final frame. Hull was a doubtful starter before the game. His high-speed collision with a goal post it Detroit Saturday was at first thought to have fractured his leg, but later the injury turned out to be a severe bruise, In weekend games, Chicago is at Montreal, New York at Tor- onto and Detroit at Boston Saturday.
