H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' HOCKEY HISTORY, a few years from now, probably less than 10, will record who won the Stanley Cup in the | 1963-64 season, and like ail other record books -- it will be simply a single line of type, giving the name of the team and the year. This isn't new! There are at beast a dozen en- tries in the Stanley Cup record book and for that matter, in every hockey, baseball, lacnosse, or (whatever sports you want to name) book that gives just that same succinct, non- dramatized but record-proof information, somebody did win the big trophy that year, But this one, like a lot of others, can go down in the memory listings as one of .those cham- pionships that could have gone either way. If you like -- you can even say it was decided on a fluke! You can even say that right now -- and they haven't played the seventh and deciding game yet. That one comes tomorrow night and it could be the wing-dinger of all times -- or if the chances suddenly go leaning ail one way -- it could be a stinkeroo. But nothing will retract from the fact that, in the minds and memories of ail who played in this series, bet on the out- come or merely watched it over their TV sets -- this is'one that really could have gone either way. It could be all over now -- and either team could have won it already, in six games. When it comes down to the "'ifs-ands-or-buts"' of a playoff series, this one probably tops 'em all. This sixth , last night, was no exception, If Leafs had skated after the first period with a 2-0 or even 3-0 lead, no one ould have denied them that margin. Detroit Red Wings just that much better in the second stanza, but the . Flubbed chances, goal-posts that got in the shots, etc., etc., all broke even enough that three periods all tied up, The in-between period batted the usual .500. Two called for a "'fluke two called for a tried-and4rue performer to make (Geoffrion) called for a rookie to score the winner. It was a fluke goal, tinged by a deflected puck, long shot, etc., but a rookie didn't get it -- neither did one of the "'blue- chip" players. A player got it, who a few minutes before was wheeled off the ice on a stretcher -- but the old novacaine shot let him come back and play. And he scored the win- ning goal ! STRANGEST attitude of any person concerned, follow- in glast night's game, was Toronto coach "Punch" Imlach's "beef" that the referees hadn't handed out enough penalties. He recailed a couple of instances when. his boys were malign- ed. He completely forbot about the times one of his defen- ders hauled down an attacker, using everything except a rope. This wasn't just one-sided either. We saw flagrant instances of holding, hooking, interference, etc., when Leafs were already short-handed, like when Enman was serving a penalty early in the game or Baun, a little later on. We saw it also when Gadsby was already in the sin-bin or Lang- lois was already serving time. But last night -- Mr. Referee, and whether Imlach or Abel wants to admit it or not -- his name wasn't Udvari -- and for that matter, whether Carl Voss, NHL referee-in-chief or president Clarence Campbell wants to admit it or not -- there was an obvious reluctance to give two penalties to any one team, in quick succession. Oh -- it was fair enough -- but if you think it was officiated by the rule-book, with which they start out the season -- then you're simply stupid. Once a team had a man serving a penalty -- they were permitted extra leeway in checking tactics. x x x x NOTICES: -- Kingside Park area boys and girls, 840-14 years, are reminded that Saturday morning, at 10:00 o'clock, at Kingside Park, they'll be taking registrations for Atom, |Gadsby and Howe. | |the overtime winner.

So said Bob Baun, the rugged defenceman who triggered the winning goal in overtime for Toronto Maple Leafs in their 4-3 victony over Detroit Red Wings Thursday night. | Baun, a 28-year-old hardrock on the Leafs' defence, had been carried from the ice on stretcher after 13 minutes in the second period after he collapsed in front of goalie Johnny Bower. Before the period ended he was back and, although he couldn't) diagnose his own injury, thought) it was a pinched nerve. "Let's wait until the doctor (Hugh Smythe) looks at it be- fore we tny to say what it was, but that winning goal sure made the ankle feel lots better,"' he smiled, |ALL ARE TOUGH Bob Pulford, who scored two goals in the Montreal semi-final) series in one game said, "all) these games are tough and |home ice doesn't mean so much of an advantage, Wings played well tonight and we worked for the victory. We'll have to do the same in Toronto Saturday." Billy Harris, a rarely - used centreman who saw extra duty while Don McKenney is . side- lined and caged the goal that knotted the count 3-3, stated "experience plays a big part in playoff hockey and tonight we had that edge with making good chances around the net." Frank Mahoviich asked: "Do we always have to play squeak- ers? Seems every game. we play is a tough one. Thirteen playoff games and never an easy one." Looking over his bandaged right knee, Red Kelly said "af- ter 17 years, I don't want a knee to keep me out. I'll be ready to go Saturday if they'll let me play." In an anteroom away from his players, coach Punch Im- lach was far from overconfident as he said: "Pressure hockey. That's ail it is and Bobby's (Baun's) shot} made it for us, The turning) point in this game was the win-| ning goal. | * |\period, wasn't in the mood for] complimentary to referee Vern winner, Prince Davelle, was . fourth. chances.

Sid Abel, manager-coach of the Wings, took the defeat the only way a man in his position could, philosophicailly. "It's easy to say we should have won the game in the third period when we had them hang- ing on the ropes, But the win- ning goal was just one of those things that happen in playoff hockey." | Abel used -his rookie fourth line of Johnny MacMillan, Pit Martin and Paul Henderson reg- ularly in the first two periods and they were the most effec- tive line on the ice for Wings.
