TORONTO, April 20 —(CP)— Conny Smythe had three words for It~-coa.cthing. veterans and rookies.

'l‘.1.te managing director of Toron- to Maple Leafs came up with them last night in the midst of the wild dressing room hubbub as well wish- crs by the dozen shook the hands and slapped the backs of’ the fighting young squad of hockey players who brought tihe Stanley Cup to Toronto.

Smythe had a good word for Canadians, whose players were quick to congratulate their rivals before they left their ice and whose club officials were among the first to enter the dressing room to ex- tend good wishes. ‘

“we had f0 beat a real team of champions to become champions. said smyt-he, “make no mistake about. that.

“But if you want to know why we won, I'll give you three reasons.

TORONTO, April 20--(CP)—Producf of the greatest rebuild job in hockey history, Toronto Maple Leafs foduy ruled os chum. pions of the world, youngest team ever to win the Stanley Cup,

With seven rookies in their lineup, Leafs dethroned Montreal Canadians when they downed the aging champions 2-I Saturday night to end in six games the first all-Canadian final in l2 yeqm

But to topple the mighty Hubifonts they come from behind and when Ted Kennedy fired the winning goof, only five minute; ond 2I seconds of ploy remained.

As the final siren sounded o crowd of 14,546 fun: remained standing about I0 minutes, shouting "We wont the cup." They finally drifted to the exits, protesting when if was announced the

trophy was still in Montreal.

Caitatlicns jumped in front af- ter only 25 seconds and as they outplayed the Toronto team, it seemed as though they would force a final game in the best-of- seven series. But youth and sheer fight. changed the scene, and Leafs. who failed to make the National League playoffs a year ago. won their third Stanley Cup in six years.

Minty fans had not settled into their seats wIictt-Buddy O'Connor took a D1155 front Butcli Bouchard at. the Montreal blueline. split the Toronto dcfcitcc and shot tn-

Walter Master-son's three-hit pitching stopped Boston Red Sox in their tracks Sunday and halted their four-game win streak as Washington Senators pounded Mel Parnell for a 3-1 win.

That dropped the Bosox back lnto second place in the Ameri- can League standings behind Chi- cago White Sox. who stayed at the top with two wins and no defeats as cold weather erased three week-end games scheduled at Chicago with St. Louis visit- lnz.

A crowd of 36.446 at Philadel- phla saw Joe Dlmaggfo, starting for the Yanks for the first time this season, hammer his ﬁrst homer in the third inning of the opener. Two mates were aboard‘ at the time. and the Yanks kept control the rest of the way. The nightcap was a duel between Phil Murdiildon of the A's and rookie Don Johnson, which Tommy Hen- rich settled with a lolh-lnnlng double.

Buddy Rosarb ninth-inning honi- er had sent the game into extra innings.

Parnell, making his major lea- gue debut before a Washington crowd of 28.433. let the Senators cluster three hits in the ﬁrst in- ning for all their runs, with help from a walk and a costly Bosox i error. 1
