(UPD — The Toronto Maple Leafs have done it again, thanks to an overtime goal by little Dick Duff, and now Coach eorge Punch Imlach is absolutely certain they’ll whip the Montreal Canadiens for the Stanley Cup. “We’ll take ’em just the same as we took Boston,’’ shouted Imlach in the happy din of the Leaf’s dressing loom after Tuesday night’s dramatic 3-2 triumph over the Canadiens. Even Imlach admitted the Leafs had to win to retain a reasonable chance for the Cup, because a Montreal'victory would have given the Canadiens an almost unbeatable 3-0 lead. Now, however, Montreal leads only 2-1 and Toronto has a chance to tie the series by winning again on home ice Thursday night.

Jackets Whip Winchester By 14To3Score Decatur’s Yellow Jacket baseball team continued on its win? ning way Tuesday, beating Winchester 14-3, on an improved of? fensive and defensive display. Two more pitchers, Rich Canales and Jim Bleeke, showed midseason form, allowing only two hits, as the Jackets found the range and lashed out 11. Steve Lytle and Larry Daniels paced the hitting attack with three each, while Canales struck out seven in five innings giving up both hits, of the scratchy variety. Bleeke struck out the side in the last inning of the two he worked. Decatur jumped off to a threerun lead in the first inning on a walk to Grabill, a booming triple by Daniels, a hit batsman, and line double by Holtsberry. Decatur scored one more in the third, five in the' fifth and four in the seventh. In the big fifth, the Jackets scored on singles by Daniels, Shraluka; and Walters, a double by Lytle, a sacrifice fly by Holtsberry,. all after Grabill got on by an error. Winchester used the base on balls as its scoring weapon, as all three runs were scored by players who walked get ;, on. Decatur pitchers, gave up seven walks, five by Canales. The Jackets closed out the scoring in the top of the seventh with walks to Holtsberry, Gaunt. BJeeke and Grabill, a single by Daniels, a walk to Shraluka, and a single by Lytle. Coach Bill McColly will have his team at full strength for the conference opener Friday here with Fort Wayrje Concordia.

Braves Sole Leaders In National Loop By FRED DOWN United Press International Johnny O’Brien and Luis Aparicio, a pair of little popgun hitters, are the big reasons why the Milwaukee Braves and Chicago White Sox are still in orbit. O’Brien, who didn’t make a hit all last season, singled across the winning run in the 10th inning to give the Braves a 4-3 decision over the Philadelphia Phillies Tuesday 1 while Aparicio, a slickfielding but light-hitting shortstop, drove in both runs with a fifthinning single as the White Sox beat the Kansas City Athletics, 2Hie third straight victory for the unbeaten Braves enabled them toytake over sole possession of first place in the National League when the Chicago Cubs whipped the San Francisco Giants, 5-2 With four straight win the White Sox are off to their best start in years and are technical leaders of the American League although both the Cleveland Indians and world champion New York Yankees also are undefeated. Score Beats Tigers The Cincinnati Reds handed the Pittsburgh Pirates a fourth . straight setback, 3-2, and the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the , Dodgers, 6-2, before a record crowd of 61,552 at Los Angeles. In the American League, the Indians made it three in a row when Herb Score “blinded” the Detroit- Tigers, 8-1, the Yankees blitzed the Baltimore Orioles, 13-3, and the Boston Red Sox beat the yf ashington Senators, 7-3. O’Brien, acquired as “bench strength” p from the Phillies, got his first chance with the Braves after entering the game as a pinch-runner. Hank Aaron and We§ Covington had singled to start the 10th and O'Brien delivered the decisive run with a looping single to right field on a 3- pitch by Dick Farrell. Mickey Vernon, another Milwaukee “pick up,” singled home the tying run in the last of the ninth after Wally Post's two-run triple gave the Phillies a 3-2 lead in the top of the frame. Aparicio continued his torrid swing hitting for the White Sox wifcn. he singled home both their rujfcs after a single by Johnny Callison and a double by Bubba Phillips. Billy Pierce, ace of the White Sox staff, yielded six hits, ruAwalks and struck out three in taking the 32nd shutout of his .fcaJeer. Aparicio, who has a threeyear .263 batting average, homered to win a game for the' White Sox last Saturday and is hitting .389 so far this season. Banks Homers Twice Ernie Banks hit a pair of two,a run homers for the Cubs who spoiled San Francisco’s home opener as well as Jack Sanford's Giant - debut. The Giants threatened to pull out the game in the; ninth when they filled the bases with one out but Don Elston relived winner Dave Hillman and struck out Daryl Spencer and Bob Schmidt to end the game. Bob Purkey pitched a sevenhitter and rookie Vada Pinson and ' Ed Bailey clouted homers to sink the Pirates who have scored a total of six runs in four straight defeats. Prukey, a native of Pittsburgh, has beaten his ex-team-mates twice in five days and five times without a loss in his career. Hal Smith, who hit only one homer last season, blasted a tworun round-tripper and two singles to lead the Cardinals’ attack on Johnny Podres. Lindy McDaniel shut out the Dodgers for seven innings as he pitched the Cardinals to their first win after three defeats. The crowd was the league’s highest for a single night game - although theYe have been larger crowds in Los Angeles for a sinle day game and a twinight doubleheader. Yankees Show Power Score, the big question-mark of the Cleveland staff, struck out nine batters and allowed only five hits as the Tigers dropped their fourth in a row. Woodie Held drove in six runs with two homers including a grand slam. Score, looking like the strikeout king of 1956, retired 19 Tigers in succession between Rocky Bridges’ firstinning single and Gail Harris' seventh-inning homer. Bill Skowron knocked in five runs with a homer, double and single and six other Yankees had two hits each in a 17-hit assault on three Baltimore pitchers. Don Laren yielded six hits and three runs in seven innings and then rookie Jim Coates finished up with two shutout innings. The Yankees routed loser Arnold Portocarrero in a nine-run third inning—largest
