H. Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' } DAVE KEON potted a goal with only eight seconds left to play, last night at Maple Leaf Gardens, to give Toronto Léafs a 3-3 tie with Montreal Canadiens and the win clinched titst place in this year's National Hockey League standings, 'for the Mapleos. Leafs now have 82 points with two games to! play while Chicago and Montreal, tied for second place with 78 points apiece, also have two games left but neither can match Leafs' seasonal win record -- no matter what happens now. Red Wings, who play in Toronto Satur- day night and meet Leafs again back home on Sunday, can not finish any better than fourth. The big question now is which team will finish in second place. Black Hawks and Habs, tied for that position right now, meet Saturday night in Montreal while on Sunday, Hawks are at Boston and Cana- ditns play in New York. In the only other NHL action last night, N.Y. Rangers thumped Boston Bruins 5-1, with Vic Had- field scoring three of the New York goals. Andy Bathgate got three assists, to move up within five points of the pace- setting Gordie Howe. With Leafs having clinched top spot, the interest in the final weekend of the schedule coming up, will centre on Montreal vs Chicago, in the scramble for sec- ond place and in the scoring race, with Gordie Howe having a two-game stretch to clinch his title. es ee TR THE ROSE BOWL, Ontario's mixed rink curling competi- tion, was concluded here at The Oshawa Curling Club yes- terday and produced a thrilling finish. Scarboro's curlers claimed the 1963 provincial title with Jack McAlpine, substi- tuting for Dave McCowan, curling brilliant in crucial spots and steady throughout, chalking up three wins over Niagara Falls, Lindsay and finally London. Gil Walker's London four- some gave it a good try, after an extra-end win over Walker- ton in the semi-finals. Walker and McAlpine were tied at the end of seven ends but Walker hogged his first rock in that end and was a foot short with his last -- and McAlpine made a fine raise and roll, to count a four-end. That was it. They blanked the 9th and Scarboro played knockout again in the 10th 'end, until London had run out of rocks. In the consola- tion play (for the Vase). Kingston's Bill Gostick and Barney Krivel of Toronto Beaver Club ,waged a down-to-the-wire fin- ish, It was tied 6-6 '"'coming home" with Gostick killing every rock that Krivel and his mates put either in front or in the house. Krivel, with his last rock, made beautiful strategic draw, putting about half of his stone on the front of the rings, almost on the tee-line. Gostick was just as brilliant. He played his last stone perfectly, pushing Krivel's stone off the rings and spinning himself for a two-inch "'biter" to win the game. * 2. 3 Ss IT'S OFFICIAL! Sonny Liston will have surgery, to remédy a torn cartilage in his left knee. The examining doc- tors have confirmed the injury and the Miami Beach Box- ing Commission has agreed to an indefinite postponement of the title match with Floyd Patterson. Now it looks like a «six-month delay so Liston and Patterson will not likely clash now until about September -- all of which writes "finis" to Cassius Clay's hopes of becoming world's champion before his birthday, in November. He wanted to be the world's youngest heavyweight champion. Now he'll have to settle for just making the grade -- no matter how long it takes! CHATHAM (CP) -- Jack Adams, former' Detroit Red Wings general manager, pre- dicted Wednesday the National Hockey League will have to ex- pand to California in two or three years. Hockey will expand westward because "that's where the money is," he said. "It costs a lot of money to run a Na- tional Hockey League club and pay for a farm system." He suggested Los Angeles, with a 13,000-seat arena, as a good potential site. Turning to international hockey, Adams, here to address an Easter Seal campaign luncheon, said Canada and the United States cannot hope to produce top hockey teams for international competiion ° until training and recruiting methods are changed. "I'd like to give Russia the pleasure of playing a National League club. We would go over there and kick the hell out of them. We might start a third or fourth world war, but it would sure be fun." Russia recruited its team by bringing in 600 players and, by means of elimination, devel- oped an 18-man team, training it for six or eight months.

Before = hometown crowd of 14,372 the Leafs couldn't beat Montreal Canadiens but they salvaged a 3-3 sawoff and that was good enough. | Each club plays two more games and both Montreal and Chicago Black Hawks could tie Toronto in points. But the mar- bles go to the team with the most wins--the Leafs. In the other game Wednesday night the Rangers dumped Bos- ton Bruins 5-1 before 8,155 fans in New York, getting three goals from Vic Hadfield, who scored only twice in 34 previ- ous games, Keon's second goal of the| game--with eight-seconds left to play--tied it for Toronto. SAYS LEAFS UNWORTHY The mild - mannered centre from Noranda, Que., a swift 163- pounder, was candid about it later in the dressing room: | said. |THEY STOLE PUCK "We didn't deserve it" he "We stopped skating and they didn't. In the last five minutes of the third period I thought we'd blown it." | Coach-manager Imiach was less unassuming. He said of his crew: ere "As the highest-paid club in the league they should be ex- pected to finish first. That's what we're paying them for." But he admitted he was con- cerned before Keon popped the puck by Montreal's goalie Jac- ques Plante from a scramble in front with Dick Duff and Bob Nevin drawing assists, Punch yanked goalie Don Sim- mons in favor of a sixth at- tacker for the final minute of play--a move that frequently backfires. This time jt paid off partly because Montreal's Henri Ri- chard--sent out by coach Toe Blake to help repel the Toronto thurst--broke his stick, "I tried to fall on the puck to kill play but they dug it out von under me," said Richard ater. Toronto took a 2-0 lead, then ing to adopt such a program with players who would not have to hold daytime jobs can results be expected in interna. tional competition.
