Toronto Leafs Win In Playoff Opener TORONTO (UPI) — Gordje Howe, a big man on and off the ide, today shouldered the blame for the Detroit Red Wings’ loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the opening game of the Stanley Cup finals; “About six of us weren’t moving — that’s why we lost,” Howe said after the Wings bowed, 4-2, to Toronto in Tuesday night's opener of the best-of-seven series. “And I was one of those guys. I just had no bounce.” Every Detroit player agreed. “I just wasn’t skating,” admitted Alex Delvecchio. "We couldn't get untracked in ■Nine,” eAhied Coadh Sid Abel; But Toronto’s Dick Duff got untracked — in one minute and eight seconds to be exact. That’s all it took the unsung left winger to put two pucks behind Terry Sawchuck before 13,858 fans barely got seated. “Usually you’re tense as the game starts waiting to get on the ice while the first line is playing,” Duff said. “But tonight I got out ther high away and. . . well, you saw it.” Sawchuck didn’t. Asked how the goals got fay him, he snapped: “Between me and the post, that’s how.” Bob Tevin gave the Leafs a 3-0 lead by the 15 minute mark as the Wings, disorganized and sloppy, collapsed. “No club can give the Leafs a fast three-goal lead and win,”. Abel said.

Ralph Terry, JoePepitone Yankee Stars By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer The New York Yankees wasted no time letting American League rivals know that Ralph Terry is as good as he looked in the World Series and Joe Pepitone may be better than Joe DiMaggio predicted. Put the two factors together and they spell calamity for longsuffering American Leaguers who are hoping their majesties will lose the pennant this year. The AL's “shirtless ones” had hoped (1) Yankee pitching might.be vulnerable and (2) the Yanks had out-smarted themselves by trading first-baseman Bill Skowron to the Los Angeles Dodgers. But Terry and Pepitone threw plenty of cold -water on those hopes Tuesday when the Yanks opened their season with an 8-2 victory over the Athletics in Kansas City. Even the fact that the Athletics were all dolled up in their new gold and green uniforms wasn’t enough to make the 30.976 hometown fans confuse them with royalty. Pepitone Homers Twice Terry, who added two World Series victories to his 23-12 record in 1962, pitched a six-hitter and walked only one batter while Pepitone, making his varsity debut, led the Yankees’ 13-hit attack with two homers and a double. Pepitone is the 22-year-old freeswinging first-baseman who had a sensational homer-streak early in last season but who cooled off to .239 and was farmed to Richmond. His biggest booster is DiMaggio, who has assured Yankee brass that Pepitone will make the big time this year. Pepitone hit the first pitch offered to him for a homer Tuesday and also homered in the eighth inning. Elston Howard got a homer and Bobby Richardson had a triple. Terry, meanwhile, breezed seven shutout innings before yielding solo homers in the eighth and ninth to Bill Bryan and Chuck Essegian. The Chicago White Sox got an early dividend from their key winter trade in toppling the Detroit Tigers, 7-5, the Los Angeles Angels beat the Boston Red Sox, 4-1, and the Cleveland Indians

Art Mahaffey Stars As Phils Defeat Reds By DICK JOYCE UPI Sports Writer All Art Mahaffey’s got is a blazing fastball , and a nickel curve, according to baseball know-it-alls, but that big hummer was good enough to get the Philadelphia Phillies off winging in the National League pennant race. “Just let him throw that fastball,” says Phillie Manager Gene Mauch. "He doesn’t need those other pitches.” The Cincinnati Reds found that out for the second straight opening day when the big righthander pitched a four-hitter and struck out 10 in a 2-1 victory Tuesday night, “It was just fast balls,” MaHaffey said after the game. “I threw only five breaking pitches all night.” Mahaffey, a 19-game winner for the Phillies last year, suffered from a painful right shoulder during spring training but his opening night performance apparently has dispelled any of Mauch’s worries. Defeat Joey Jay The Phils, long-time doormat of the senior circuit but the best team in the league for the second half of last season, defeated 21game winner Joey Jay for the second straight year on opening day. Don Demeter’s single drove in the first Phillie run in the fourth inning and the clincher came in when Gordy Coleman muffed a double play ball in the sixth. The Reds rallied in the ninth off Mahaffey when Frank Robinson singled and John Edwards doubled him home with one out. Mahaffey then settled down, striking out Gene Freese and Tommy Harper. The National League champion San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers, rated with Cincinnati as the top contenders for the NL flag, won their opening day contests. Four home runs—by ' Willie Mays, Orlando Cepeda, Willie McCovey and Felipe Alou—led the Giants to a 9-2 victory over the Houston Colts and 25-game winner Don Drysdale of the Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs, 5-1. Broglio Pitches Two-Hitter In other games, Ernie Broglio pitched a two-hit, • 7-0 victory for the St. Louis Cardinals over the New York Mets, and Ted. Sayage’s two-out, pinch single paced the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-2 win over the Milwaukee Braves. Jack Sanford, a 24-game winner for the Giants last season, pitched five-hit ball for five innings before giving way to Jack Fisher, who retired all 12 Colts in order. The 90-degree heat and Sanford's base-running—he hit a triple and a single, driving in three runs—caused the Giant righthander to tireThe Giants raked four Houston hurlers for 17 hits, with starter Dick Farrell getting the loss. Maury Wills of the Dodgers, the NL's most valuable player in 1962, suffered an injured ankle as he tried to score in the third and had to be replaced. Drysdale spaced 11 hits and was helped by three double plays. Rookie Ken McMullen drove home two runs for the Dodgers as Larry Jackson took the loss for Chicago. Larry Burright of the Mets got the only hits off Broglio—in the first and ninth innings. In between, the Card righthander set down 20 straight Mets. Bill White’s homer and George Altman’s four hits led the Cards’ 14-hit attack —l2 of them coming off Roger Craig. Bonus baby Bob Bailey and veteran Smoky Burgess homered for the Pirates, who beat lefty Bob Hendley. Relief ace Elroy Face picked up the victory. • shaded the Minnesota Twins, 5-4, in the other American League games. Rookie, Veteran Star Rookie Pete Ward and veteran relief pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm, obtained in a winter deal with the Orioles, were the stars of the White Sox’ victory. Ward hit a three-run homer in the White Sox’ game-winning four-run seventhinning rally and Wilhelm protected the lead with three innings of one-hit shutout relief ball. Joe Cunningham homered for the Sox and Gus Triandos homered and Rocky Colavito had three hits for Detroit. Ken Mcßride pitched a fourhitter and struck out six for the Angels, who clobbered Bill Monbouquette for all their runs in the fifth inning. Lee Thomas’ threerun homer was the big blow of the frame. Carl Yastrzemski had two of the Red Sox hits; including a homer that accounted for their run. Woodie Held, John Romano, Max Alvis and Fred Whitfield hit homers to produce all the Indians' runs of 1962 20-g«me winner Camilo Pascual. Jim Grant pitched a seven-hitter for the Indians, raising his lifetime record against the Twins to 23-7.

Hawks Even Playoff Series With Lakers ST. LOUIS (UPI) — The St. Louis Hawks, behind their hangon 121-113 victory Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Lakers, forced the Western Divisioruplayoff of the National Basketball Association into a seventh and final game Thursday. With Bob ‘scoring 36 points and injured Cliff Hagan adding 24, the Hawks were able to maintain command of the game until the final minutes, after Charlie Vaughn. Hagan and rookie Zelmo Beaty had fouled out. The Hawks opened up a 16point spread, behind a 13-point outburst in the third quarter, but saw that melt away to only three as the Lakers made a strong comeback attempt. Elgin Baylor fired 39 points through the hoop and Jerry West added 28 to spearhead the attack. Pettit Ices Game However, it was strong-man Pettit who iced the game with a pair of free throws and a threepoint play to pad the three-point Hawk lead in the final moments of the fourth quarter. The two clubs now travel to the West Coast for the windup game and the right to meet the Eastern Division playoff champs, who will be crowned tonight at Boston. The Celtics and Cincinnati Royals are also tied at three gafnes each. Both clubs predict victory in the final, but if tradition holds it will be Los Angeles taking the final contest. Neither team has won on the other’s court in the entire series. I • < “Team Has Heart” Following Tuesday night’s win. Hawks Coach Harry Ga 1 latin commented, ‘‘This team has heart. They’ve come back each time to deadlock the series.” A depressed Laker squad sat in their dressing room following the game, but left little doubt they thought they could come up with the crucial win Thursday at homeBoth Schaus and Baylor expressed little surprise the Hawks are as tough as they are. “You’ve really got to be up to win in the playoffs,” Baylor said. “Any team can do it.” When asked if he thought the Hawks would be tough in the playoffs, Schaus replied, “I did, I knew we would be very fortunate to get out of it.”
