tnany years will it be before the_ hther’ five clubs can. match them in player personnel?

General M a n a g e r Murray Tl/Iuzz) Patrick, whose New York Rangers are closest to the power- ul Canadiens, surveyed the situ- tion Tuesday and came up wit liese conclusions: ~' -“Montreal will continue to dom- hate the league for at least two more years,” he said. “A lot de- ends on how much longer some 5 their older player s like Iauriec Richard, Doug Harvey pd Bert Olmstead can keep go- 5

“'1 know that even without some their top players in the lineup El’ look almost invincible. But

the replacements are not that good.

“You can compare the Cana- diens in many ways with the Yankees in‘ b seball. When you rub elbows wit guys like Mantle, Berra and DiMaggio you’re bound to play better. That's the way it is with Montreal. Several of their men are just mediocre, but they catch fire when they put on a Canadien uniform.”

LOSE MANY STARS The Canadiens have been with-

of Rocket Richard, the league’s all-time s c oring leader and Bernie Geoffrion, Jean Beliveau and Henri Richard, three more of the circ:uit’s top point pro- ducers.

“No one is going to give away a good player," he said. “You have to develop them. We now own or have working agreements with 13 minor league and ama- teur teams. That’s as many as Montreal has.

Amateur Golf Is Seen World

By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr. NEW YORK (AP)—With two international golf matches com-

' ing up this year, the U.S. Golf

association president foresees a time when amateur golf compet- ition will be virtually _world wide.

John D. Ames of Chicago, visit- ing the USGA headquarters for the first_time since his election as ‘president last month, said he could see a trend in that direc- tion although no expansion of in- ternational matches now is under consideration.

“Every year we hear of more countries which have good am- ateur golfers who want to play,” he said. “I’d say there’s a def- inite trend toward wider interna- tional competition.”

The big international matches now are the Walker Cup for men and the Curtis Cup for women- both between the U.S. and Brit- ain-and the six-year-old Amer- icas Cup competition among the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

The Americas Cup will be con- tested this year at San Fran- cisco just before the U.S. Amat-

Competition - Wide S-oon

eur championship. Ames called it a very successful event so far. American women golfers will try to regain the Curtis Cup ’rom Britain at Brae Burn, near Bos- ton, in August. SAME RULES EVERYWHERE “Golf is one game in whic‘ the rules are the same the world over,” Ames added. “When play- ers from different countries meet, they know they’re playing ex- actly the same game.” The discussion turned to expen- sive USGA - sponsored experi- ments with golf balls, which are going into their second year. Ames agreed when ex-president Dick Tufts of Pinehurst, N.C., suggested golf might be a better game if it could be played with the same number. of shots (on courses 5,500 yards long instead of 7,000. The problem has been that the top golfers can hit the modern balls too far for the 161' 'th of the courses they play on. Tests have shown that some can belt a low- compression ball just as far as

the high compression pellets.

Player Comes

By ED SIMON Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON (CP) — The double

life of Ray Hancox is at an end. When play resumes in the Foot- ball Associa.t"on’s amateur soc- cer cup competition, Wokingham Town’s inside left will be left out- side. -" ’ Hancox admitted Tuesday night he had helped Wokingham reach the cup quarter - finals, playing under the name of Mike Ashford, and that he modestly refrained from telli g his cubmates about his three - year professoinal ca- reer with Crystal Palace of the Football Leagues third division. Wokingham promptly suspended Hancox-Ashforrd and awaited word from the FA, which frowns on participation by former profes- sionals in amateur cup matches.

Resigns From

Badminton Team MONTREAL (CP)——Stan . Cutts,‘

Montreal badminton professional Wednesday announced his resig

nation from the Canadian Thomas Cup -badminton team, which is to

play the United States Feb. 28 March 1.

Cutts quoted»Jack Underhill, ex- ecutive member of the Canadian Badminton Association, as saying don’t warrant the -cost of sending a coach to the

association funds

Long B e a c h, Ca1., for matches.

“So, to save any embarrass- ment, I’d sooner resign,” Cutts

said.

“It’s a shame our tearn can-"t meet the Americans-’~on:~_an- even- basis for a change and perhaps win a tie after losing the three

previous ones."

Cutts, professional at Montreal Badminton and Squash Club, was named to coach the six-man team

six weeks ago.

wings is West Auckland T-own, the unimpeachably amateur c 1 u b Wokingham defeated 4-2 last Sat- urday w"-th Hancox-Ashford scor- ing one of the goals. It was West Auckland’s protest that unmasked the inside 1eft’s shady past.

Hancox e x pl a in e d that the trouble began after he had played two seasons for Dorking, a Lon- don area club, and moved on to Chertsey Town early last season, playing under his own name with the FA’s permission. I-[UNTED NEW CLUB

But Chertsey is a long way from Reading, where Hancox works as a sausage salesman. He decided to finda cl-ub closer to home and turned out for Reading Oo-op. giving the name of Ash- ford to avoid embarrassing the FA, which limits its special per- mits to ex-professionals to one a year. ,

A Wokingham scout -saw him play for Reading and persuaded him to transfer his allegiance. ..

The trouble began when another Chrystal Palace veteran spotted the sausage salesman in a cup match at Orton Woodseats three weeks ago and decided.the face looked familiar. He told officials of the Woodseats club of his sus- picions but they decided they had lost fair and square and did noth- ing about it. ’

~~ Then the news leaked out to West Auckland and the fat was inthe fire.
