THIS IS THE PLACE! Dave Skrien, coach of the victorious British Columbia Lions, and his wife, admire The Grey Cup, as it sits in the spot that Mrs. Skrien said her husband had built especially for a tro- phy. Their new home was 'MUNSEY FOR GREETS GREY VANCOUVER (CP)--"Mun- sey for mayor.' That's the sign that greeted big Bill Mansey as he stepped from an Air Canada jet with the rest of the Grey Cup champion B.C. Lions Sunday night. He was the star. in Lions' 34-24 win over Hamilton Ti- ger-Cats at Toronto Saturday and the approximately 5,000 who greeted the plane here made it a triumphal home- coming. "It's just. like -Toronto," said Munsey as he stepped out of the plane in a chilly downpour of rain, much like MAYOR' SIGN CUP STAR the weather during the Grey Cup game. But when his notice was di- rected to the '"'Munsey for mayor" sign, the man who went 60 minutes offensively and defensively and scored two B.C. touchdowns was non- committal. "T"ve no political tions," he 'said. Mayor William Rathie, in the running for re-election next month, was on hand to greet officially the club and welcome the first Grey Cup ever to come to Vancouver. He made no comment about the "Munseyfor mayor" sign: aspira- NHL LEADERS By THE CANADIAN PRESS Standings: Detroit, played 20, won 10, lost 6, tied 4, points 24. Points: Hull, Chicago, 23.

The Lions earned every point. The usual sources of the B.C. offensive and defensive fire- power backed up the two heroes for the decision, hammered out in drizzling rain that made a few damp-slick patches on the Canadian National Exhibition Stadium grounds. It came 11 years after Lions entered the Western Conference and be-| came a laughing stock with the} optimistic 'Lions roar in '54"| slogan, | The Lions, were soft touches| and the joke of the West for years until they moulded a con- tender that reached the heights in '64 and gave the West its 12th victory in 37 East-West clashes since the cup became a national affair in 192 The names that_wilJ//be re- membered from is one are Bill Munsey and Pete Ohler. [Between them, they were di- lrectly responsible for three of the Lions' five touchdowns. FAVORED TO WIN The Tiger-Cats, and just about everybody else, didn't figure \that these comparative un- | knowns would take a big part jin knocking over the power- |house of the East, the team that went into the game favored to win by eight points. But 32,655 fans at the stadium and tele- vision viewers across the coun- try were witnesses to their his-| trionics. | Munsey, who got no farther |; than the line of scrimmage in his one ball-carrying effort in a WFC game last year, scored two touchdowns in three min- Fourth Quarter 13.

Dick Fouts, B.C, defensive end, booted the loose ball, Munsey was there to grab it on the run and he streaked 65 yards for the touch- down that ended the Lions' scor- ing. The scoreboard showed Lions in front 34-8. Tiger-Cats were dead and every fan wearing the Hamilton black and gold colors knew it, although a desperation last-quarter rally netted them 16 points on two converted touchdowns and a_ conceded safety touch. Time simply ran out on them. WAS BROKEN PLAY Ohler's contribution came on a broken play ah 2:24 of the sec- ond quarter with Lions in front The westerners had lined up for a field goal. attempt from the Hamilton 15. Ohler fumbled the snapout, retrieved the ball and pitched an end zone pass to Jim Carphin, a second-string end whe had been detailed to jact as am emergency receiver in the event of any miscues on the snap. Coach Dave Skrien of the Lions said "definitely" it was a broken play. The 23 - year - old Ohler, who spends most of his time holding the ball for Peter Kempf's place-kicking and who does free-lance writing and writes poetry, said he had been practising the pass to Carphin for just, such an eventuality. The other Lions' touchdowns came from Swift on a one-yard hurdle over the Hamilton line and patented twisting, swerving 46-yard dash around the end by the incomparable Willie: Flem- ing who was a terror all after- noon, Kempf clicked on four of five convert attempts and Beau- mont conceded the safety touch with five minutes remaining in the game. Hamilton, held to a second- quarter single by punter Joe Zuger in the first half when they trailed 20-1, came to life after the interval. Counts ram-| bled 58 yards down the side- lines after taking a lateral from Faloney in the third quarter and the Ticat field leader tossed touchdown strikes to Tommy Grant and Stan Crisson in the final quarter when the game was out of reach. Sutherin converted two touch- downs and Zuger added another single. SUMS UP LOSS Coach Ralph Sazio, who took Ticats over from Jim Trimble last year after the Hamilton club had won only one cup in five appearances from 1957, summed up the loss by saying) simply: | "We were out-defenced." And the Hamilton coaching staff declined to make any alibis over a-disputed press box- to-bench telephone communica- tions system. It was a dead line \gained only 14 yards in five car- attempts to 10 of 22 for quar- terback Joe Kapp and Ohler. Each team intercepted one pass. Hamilton's Garney Hen- ley grabbed one thrown . by Kapp early in the first quarter and Beaumont got in front of goal attempt from the B.C. 47. But the figures don't tell the story. KEPT DEFENCE GUESSING Kapp kept the supposedly- tough Hamilton defence off- balance much of: the game. He picked holes in Hamilton's deep pass defence. He crossed up the big, tough Ticat line by sending the 183-pound Fleming down the middle instead of steering him out wide where he is a tricky, feinting ball carrier and a hard man to grab. And the Tiger-Cats couldn't do much about it. Fleming, who ries before retiring from the 1963 cup with a mild concussion shortly before half-time, bar- relled through the Hamilton front' wall for 67 yards on six jrushes, He caught two passes for 36 yards and his 46-yard second- for the first half but, said as- sistant coach Joe Restic, "That's not what beat us,' "We: were beaten by a better club." The cold statistics didn't prove a thing in this one, ex- cept possibly to show that fig- ures can lie. Tiger-Cats out-gained the Lions on the ground 203 yards to 150. They outpassed them 233-159. They had the most first downs, 22-16, and Zuger out- pointed Beaumont in the some- times-tricky wind with an av- erage of 42.3 against 36.3. Lions completed 18 of 34 pass onto Argonauts, cuarter touchdown romp was jone of the niftiest pieces of |hroken- field running eastern fans have seen this season. Among his victims was Hen- ley, a speedster himself who had a terrible afternoon on the long passes, Henley was left clawing at the ground on Flem- ing's touchdown. Faloney's favorite target was Hal Patterson who caught five for 85 yards. His scoring tosses to Grant and Crisson gave him eight in seven cup games, break- ing the record of seven previ- ously held by Joe Krol of Ham- a Sutherin pass off a fake field) _ Faloney threw 14 passes in the final quarter alone, com- pleting nine for 99 yards. RECEIVES ACCOLADES The man who took all the back-slapping was Munsey. He gained 54 yards in seven tries after taking over the fullback slot from Swift early in the sec- ond. quarter. : He didn't miss a play in his defensive halfback position and his tackling was fierce. The, pattern of the game was set earlyswhen the Lions took a 7-0 first-quarter lead. Swift got his touchdown following a 25-yard pass to Ron Morris and a 33-yarder to Fleming to the tivenvarl line. Ohler's surprising play made it 13-0 early in the second, After Zuger's first point, the Lions went 100 yards in five plays. Kapp gained 15 on a quarterback sneak, completed passes to Morris and Homer, and Fleming went on Pad long ramble. Counts put Ticats "in 'the game with his touc' n and nearly 10 minutes later Manse broke it up with his 18-yard gal- lop, climaxing an eight-play 84- yard touchdown drive. He 74-yard drive highlighted by a sealed it with his 65-yarder. @ Hockey Stick and © Stock Car Racing For Decorating: © Extension Cord 9 © Butane Cigarette ilton Flying Wildcats and Tor- % For Practical Santas NO MONEY DOWN BUDGET TERMS Puck 99e @ 16" x 36" Hockey Game 4.99 Set Special 15.99 ®@ Model Planes, Trains and Cars @ Holiday Floodlight 4.29 © Christmas Tree Stand 69¢ feet 66c @ Christmas 15-light set 3.19 © Christmas Wrap 12 assorted rolls 1.44 © Christmas Carol Record 1.3 (Hi-fi and Stereo) Lighter 2.95 restone."
