And it's not Walter Alston, whose Los Angeles Dodgers finished second. It's not even Fred Hutchinson, who brought the Cincinnati Reds home third after a slow start. The National league manager of the year is Gene Mauch, pilot of the seventh-place Philadelphia Phils. So say both major wire services, the United Press International and the Associated BY CHARLES BARTLETT The Montreal Canadiens, seeking their sixth consecutive National Hockey league championship, pay their first 1962-63 season's visit to Chicago Stadium at 7:30 o'clock tonight as playing guests of the Chicago Black Hawks, the team that knocked them out of the Stanley cup playoffs' on this same rink last April 8. Things aren't what they were that happy spring evening when Chicago's great goalie, Glenn Hall, blanked these Flying Frenchmen, 2 to 0.

and sent them home losers in the Stanley cup semi-finals, four matches to two. Certainly, there's no resemblance on the Black Hawks side, where our goal-hungry heroes of that April night now are subsisting on a diet of one victory in six games. Goalie Plant Absent Also there is a dissimilarity in the Montreal personnel this season. Principal absentee from the Canadiens' cast is Jacques Plante, the goalie who again won the Vezina net-tending trophy. The man who pioneered the goalie's face mask has been the air attack requires at least average support by power, running speed, and more than adequate direction.

Attack Built on Myers Northwestern has an unusual quarterback and passer in Tom Myers. Ara Parseghian built the i 1 a offense around this skill and supported it with the best material available in other phases of attack. Parseghian may not use the spread three years from now.

Thus, the label discourages outstanding passers who have been trained in the formation in high school competition from casting lots with a power team. Power Game Will Win This must be one reason why Myers, from Troy, entered Northwestern. Another, of course, is the staff personnel that contacted him and trained sistent as they should be if they are to remain in the thick of the struggle to overthrow Green Bay. Here again injuries have been largely responsible. There is a growing feeling, however, that Joe Marconi and Ronnie Bull can solve the problem.

Marconi, younger and faster than Rick Casares as fast, in fact, as Casares was at his peak several seasons ago was outstanding in the three-touchdown fourth quarter rally that hauled the Bears back into a tie for second place on Sunday.

20, Florida, 4. Northwestern's football team opened preparations yesterday for Saturday's homecoming game with Notre Dame with a warning from Coach Ara Par-seghian to "get down out of the clouds." Parseghian said it would take another superlative effort if the Wildcats hoped to beat Notre Dame. "We are facing another traditional rival and any letdown would prove disastrous." Parseghian had high praise for all players who participated in the victory over Ohio State, but said he was especially pleased with the defensive performance, which he labeled "remarkable." Singles Oat Cvercko He singled out Jack Cvercko, All-American guard candidate, for his role in checking the Buckeye ground attack. "Jack didn't practice all last week because of a knee injury but he came up with a tremendous performance," Parseghian said. "I was also pleased with the play of Jerry Goshgarian, middle linebacker, and Interior Linemen George Thomas, Burt Petkus, and Joe Szczecko.

No Vacation for Regulars First stringers who bore the brunt of the game against the Buckeyes as well as reserves took part in a brisk offensive and defensive drill yesterday. The lone concession for the regulars was being excused from the usual Monday scrimmage with the freshmen. Two thousand reserved end zone seats still remain for the Notre Dame game, and are on sale at the N. U. ticket office at Dyche stadium.

A sellout originally had been announced, but 4,000 extra end zone seats were erected last week.

At the same time, Dickens, escaping briefly from his own melancholy experiences of the last three Saturdays, said that Northwestern has a chance to be the No. 1 college eleven. "Northwestern has a great passer Tom Myers, fine running backs and a well balanced ball club," said Dickens.

Only aome scheduled. DIRECTORS OF THE Hambletonian society earned this corner's gold star Sunday. They had a difficult decision to make, but they acted as wise men and fair men or so this one unsolicited opinion holds. The society voted, in event you missed the news bulletins, to present the Hamble Accept British Challenge Making a calculated guess, one would surmise the Hambletonian society recognizes that the growth of harness racing has been so great that no mutuel plant needs the Hambletonian to hypo interest Nowadays the betting is so heavy that the big harness plants can afford to offer most attractive purses. The situation is comparable to thorobred racing, which rewards owners with scores of $180,000 races even tho the banner event still is the Kentucky Derby.

As a post script, it must be noted that closing of the Washington Park meeting, and announcement of the long awaited Hambletonian decision, does not ring down the curtain on local harness racing. They're trotting and pacingevery -week day night out at Maywood Park, where this state's pari-mutuel harness betting was pioneered way back when the thorobred folk wanted no part of it. senting their sport's Kentucky Derby on a track where pari-mutuel betting is not permitted. The Hayes brothers went after the Hambletonian originally, brought it to Illinois, and worked to make it an even more illustrious event The interest they generated very likely inspired some of the competitive bids. But if the society was to be fair, Du Quoin deserved the chance to continue thru '66.

And, as previously indicated, the fair decision was also a wise one. The society would have run the risk of The Hambletonian becoming just another rich commercial trot had they presented it to one of the bidding titans, Chicago's Washington Park or New York's Yonkers Raceway. CONGRATULATIONS ARE due Mrs. Webb Marje Everett of Washington Park, who emphasized her sense of sportsmanship by notifying the society members that Washington Park would withdraw its bid if said bid might jeopardize Du Quoin's chances On the other hand, if the directors had. predetermined to abandon Du Quoin, Washington Park wanted to be very much in the bidding.

The vote to continue presentation of the 3-year-old trotting classic at Du Quoin was a disappointment to other bidders, of course. But if -the race is to maintain its rich tradition and color, it requires a permanent home. And what better permanent home than the down-state park, owned and operated by Gene and Don Hayes, that brought the Hambletonian to the midwest a little more than five years ago? Gene and Don Hayes are dedicated harness race men. Their Fair Acres New York, Oct.

22 CD The New York Yacht club today accepted a British challenge to compete for the America's cup in 1964. Commodore H. Irving Pratt cf the New York Yacht club sent a cable to the challenging Royal Thames Yacht club notifying Earl Mountbatten, commodore of the Royal Thames, of the acceptance for 1964. In the same message Pratt formally advised the British commodore that the British challenge for 1963 could not be accepted. The Americans earlier had notified the British that they would not race in 1963 because of the time and expense involved in preparing and racing the expensive 12 meter yachts.
