Court Test By Robinson Is Postponed —

NEW YORK (AP) — Miidle weight champion Sugar Ray Rob inson’s court test of the New York Athletic Commission's power to vacate titles was post- poned Wednesday until Friday.

The two-day delay was re- quested in State Supreme Court by the state-attorney general's office which is representing the three-man commission. Counsel asked for the time to answer Robinson's contentions.

Robinson went to the courts to restrain the commission from vacating his title. On April 3 the commission, headed by chair- man Melvin Krulewitch, ordered Robinson to sign for a title de fence against ex-champion Car- men Basilio by noon, April 15, or

Richardson’s long poke to left field drove in two runners in the ninth inning Wednesday night to pull out a 3-1 victory for the un defeated New York Yankees over

just what will happen within the next week. : ‘Punch’ Imlach’s amazing Leafs got right back into the thick of the Cup fight Tuesday night with that overtime triumph over Montreal Canadiens. They still trail the Cup defenders by one but a win tonight would send the two squads back to Montreal all tied up at 2-2.

: WHEN THE TEAMS headed for Toronto with Canadiens in front two geams to none, we said that when the fifth game would start at the Montreal Forum, each team would have had two wins to its credit. We are not changing our mind on that

_ prediction which we are convinced will be 100 per cent right.

Leafs trailed Boston Bruins 20 in games and fought back to win the semi-final round, At the particular time, just about every- body was talking about a Canadiens-Bruins final. Leafs apparently didn’t let that talk worry them because they_went right to work and ousted the Bostonians from further Cup competition.

THERE WAS A LOT OF TALK about Canadiens taking Leafs

im four straight. We wondered if folks were really sincere when |

they went about making this wild statement. Apparently some

of them were. They had forgotten’ about this comeback spirit of | that Boston |

Toronto Maple Leafs. They had forgotten about series and its eventual outcome. They had forgotten that Leafs play their best hockey when the odds are stacked against them.

Tuesday the odds were 85 for Canadiens but Leafs surprised by

winning im overtime. :

LEAF SUPPORTERS like very much that 3-2 overtime vic- tory. They recall it was im this very fashion: that the Toronto eomeback commenced im the Boston series. They like this 3-2 score becatise Leafs grabbed three victories in their fight with Boston by this very same score.

If the Imlach crew could win that fourth game 32 in over time, then you would have quite a time persuading Leaf supporters that a repeat of the semi-finals wasn’t underway. The Leafs needed overtime to kknot the Boston series and both those games, three and four, were 3-2 decisions.

TORONTO WILL NOT have to worry about Beliveau for this

series. Big Jean has said‘ himself that his doctor has told him to call it quits for the season. The Rocket appears to be just about through for this classic and that groin injury doesn’t seem to be improving one bit. Bob Turner quit Tuesday’s game with a eharieyhorse and that could keep him out for a time. * Despite these things, the experts (we don’t dare class our gelves in this group) are calling the Canadiens to repeat as Stan- ley Cup champions. A great many think that Leafs have won the only game they are going to win, while others, a bit more con gervative are calling it in six or seven.

WELL A WHOLE LOT hinges on this big battle tonight in Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens. If those wild shooting Leafs can

the series would take a drop. Pretvaty, we are calling Leafs to tie the whole affair\ up te might and make this series, a best of three affair. . We still think those two more victories for the Montreal Canadiens are going to be a lot tougher to get than the experts

thought they would be. Those ‘Maple Leafs are far from through for this, season.

WE WERE DEEPLY MOVED by the concern shown for us by our friend of the Evening Patriot, the author of Sport Views iews. : oP gre very much worried last Monday as he advised us not te pay any attention to Foster Hewitt and his excuses for the Maple Leafs. He felt we were falling victims to Hewitt's charms (heaven iorbid) and he immediately issued a warning, pleading

with us to not listen to the Toronto sportscaster.

May we put our good friend right at once. Has he forgotten #hat twice in our column these past two weeks we have voiced our disapprcval of what Mr. Hewitt had said? Firstly, we slap- ped him for his \failure to pay tribute to Harry Lumley who per- formed: brilliantly in Boston Bruims cage. Not only did Hewitt fail to compliment old Lum but he kept harping away and giving you the idea that Harry wasn’t doing anything exceptional in the way of goaltending.

Last Saturday we paid our tribute to Danny Gallivan who does all the Canadiens games. We said at that time that Danny had no equal on this continent and the Maritimes certainly were proud.to claim him as their own. We added that Danny didn’t grow sorrowful when the opposition put one in the Montreal net. Each team got the: same play from Danny when a goal was scored. ‘ :

OUR EVENING PATRIOT friend claims, in spite of our atti- tude to Mr. Hewitt, that-we are paying too much attention to the Toronto sportscaster. He says this because we had picked Toronto to win both these games at Maple Leaf Gardens this week. We had no trouble figuring out why the Leafs lost those first two games in Montreal. The simple reason was that Canadiens were the better hockey team. We weren't claiming that Leafs should have won either’ same.

If we ‘vant expert advice. we certainly wouldn't let Foster Hewitt influence us ary more than we would listen to the ravings that so often appear in Sports Views and Reviews.

The author of this column picked Milwaukee last October. He had both Rangers and Wings with playoff berths. He saw Boston an easy winner over Leafs im the semi-final. Along the way he made several calls on important fights. They were consistent all 19) per cent wrong.

He’s wrong again and you readers shouldn't be too surprised That's the usual happening. We-must admit he is the most con
