Sydney Milli

In the second period Ford start- 'tl it again, and before the session "iflftfl Bri) Hayes made it 4-1.

In the last period Ford once again mcned fire. Lauffman came through. then McLaughlin and Lauffman ftiiisiicd it off.

Jean Beliveau Popular Man In. Montreal Today

By W. R. WHEATLEY

MONTREAL, Dec. 22 -- (CF) - Jean Beliveau is running Santa Claus a close second as the most talked of man in Montreal today. He is just as elusive, too, as the wliiskered old" fellow.

If Montreal Canadiens aren't. making a renewed effort right now to get the 21-year-old whiz-bang for a centre-ice job, theres no such thing as holly and jingle bells or even business acumen.

Beliveau arrived in Montreal by air today from Boston, where he completed his three-game lend- lease stretch with Canadlens. Dur- ing that whirl the sharpsliooting youngster from Quebec Aces be- came the sensation of the National Hockey League by scoring five goals.

After his arrival today. on his way to Quebec to rejoin his team in the Quebec Senior Hockey League, he dropped out of sight. -

But his name was heard every- where - on streets in stores and street cars. You couldn't sit down in a tavern for a fast one without hearing ”Belive:-iii."

Would Be Welcome

Whether Canadiens can get the idol of Quebec-who would be as warmly welcomed in Montreal as another Maurice Richard-is prob- lemntical.

Belivcau himself the other dav shrugged off miestion: with "I'm under contract tn Quebec" General Manager Frank Selke of Canadieps said the only arrangement with Aces was the lend-lei: se stipulation. Seiko was still in Boston tndav.

President Jack Letter of Aces salrl today there's no chance of a Bell- vcau trade this seeson. He. figures Beliveau is the nlaver who packs in the fans at nruehec Coliseum. de- spite the sixth-nlace standlvw 0' Aces in the seven-team C).S.H.L. Eclireau is said to have been orac- tlcallv solely resoomible. for the sale of 6.00!) season tickets last. fall.

Letter thinks it would M unfair to Gllebf” fans to let Bl" Jean "0 how. The vounrvster's advisers in Quebec are reported to feel tlv-. same warn Coach Georrze Tmlach said, "You may he sure Belivrw" will finish out the season with Aces."

It is estimated Reliveau in mak- ll'll.' at least sl5.000 this season by stayinvv with the so-called amateur team.

Archie Moore Ready To Meet Bandy Turpin

NEW YORK, Dec. 22 -(AP) -- Archie Moorels manager today of- ficinlly notified the State Athletic Commission that the newly crown- ed light heavyweight champion B ready to defend his title against Randy Turpin if the British boxer wants a. shot. 0 1

Manager Charley Johnston told Bob Christenberry, chairman of the commission. that Moore is willing to meet Turpin in New York next summer or sooner.

Turpin, former middleweight champion, indi ted last week, however, that planned to go af- ter Ray Robinson's abdicated mid- dleweight title.

Bald Johnston:

"I've asked Jim Norris (president of the International Boxlnl Club) to stage it return bout with Joey Maxim as soon as possible within 00 days. If Maxim indicates that he doesn't want the return. or if he want: too much time. he'll have to wait until Moore fights Turpin. Moore is going to be I fighting champion and he doesn't want to lay off waiting for some make up his mind."

he is in Barrie by May 1, he win be clear to play up there next year.

....M... -w.....-s-- the Montreal Forum is something else.

Lynn Patrick, Boston coach, was reported to have said here Friday that, because of Bellveau's hox-of- fice drawing power, a. salary of 325,000 wouldr'i't. be too high. In the game here with Boston Satur- day night the packed-in standees sent the attendance to 14,714, sec- ond highest this season. In Boston Sunday night 12.984 fans. a record for the season, turned out.

Jack Latter's comment would seem to dispose of any immediate deal. There have been rumors Can- adiens would give up almost any number of players to get. Beliveau. Canadians are weak down centre, veteran Elmer Lach is out of action with a broken thumb. Billv Reay suffered a fractured cheek bone in Boston Sunday night. Dickie Moore, who could be shifted from wing to centre, hasn't played yet this sea- son because of a knee operation. Except for Lach, Beliveau scored more goals during his lend-lease service than any Montreal centre has all season.

Besides the low standing of Que- bec Aces, another iinhapny circum- st.a.iice is reported to be the attitude of Beliveau's teammates. They are said to feel that since Jean "is get- ting all that dough. let him go ahead and do the scoring." The bill fellow is actually near the top in the Q.S.l-LL. scoring statistics. Therels one thing Canadlens can feel easy about - no rival club can yet get Beliveau in the draft. Un- der the regulations he can't be drafted until he has reached his 22nd birthday, and that's Aug. 31. 1053. Besides, Belivcau has said if he makes the jump to the NIH. L. he would want to play with Can- adiens.
