J. P. Bordeleau got the first goal at 5:35 before Dennis Hull and rookie Darcy Rota added some cushion. The defending Stanley Cup Champion Montreal Canadiens started their defense of their crown without All-Star goalie Ken Dryden, who retired, but the there was no noticeable weakness in the Montreal goal-only in replacement Bunny Larocque's stomach. "I was so nervous that I became sick between periods," Larocque said after stopping 28 of 30 shots in Montreal's 5-2 victory over Minnesota.

BY FRED ROTHENBERG AMoclattd Prui Sports Writer This is for the National Hockey League goalies who are so concerned about Phil Esposito's health. Watch out! Esposito, the National Hockey League's leading scorer four of the past five seasons, still isn't 100 per cent recovered from April surgery on his right knee, but Vancouver goalie Gary Smith would be the last to know it. Esposito slapped three goals past Smith, career Nos, 399-101 Wednesday, in the Boston Bruins' 6-4 season-opening victory over the Vancouver Canucks. Elsewhere in the NHL, Montreal downed Minnesota 5-2; Toronto outs-cored Buffalo 7-4 the New York Rangers beat Detroit 4-1 the New York Islanders and the Atlanta Flames skated to a 1-1 tie; Chicago blanked Los Angeles 3-0, and California squeezed by St. Louis 2-1.

It was a good night all around for the Esposito family as Phil's brother Tony posted the 50th shutout of his career in With a little bit o' luck, this guessing game isn't too hard, after all. I got lucky last week, for an 80 per cent mark (32 right, 8 wrong, 1 tie), the best of the season. Over-all, the chart shows .732 (131-48-7). Green Bay will activate tackle Kent Branstetter GREEN BAY Following Wednesday's workout, which saw the Packers finish just before showers struck, the Green Bay area, Devine announced that rookie tackle Kent Branstetter will be activated for Sunday's game "to give us a little more depth in the offensive line." Branstetter, a free agent from the rather frustrating season could be an instant success with an upset over an arch-rival. But the unbeaten Cadets seem to have a little too much going for them -especially on offense.

Oshkosh North over Menasha-Jt's obvious by now that the revitalized Jays are for real, and they have the potential for knocking off yet another co-leader. But the high-powered Spartan ground attack is tough to deny for a full 48 minutes. Little Chute over Wautoma-The Mustangs will keep their championship express rolling with rather frequent trips into the Hornet end zone. Appleton East over Kimberly-In this pick, it's a case of potential over the form chart, and the expectation is that the Patriots will prevail in an extremely close game. St.

Mary Central over Roncalll-The Zephyrs will enhance their record against a Jet team that has seen more valleys than hills this season.

WIS fAOJACENT TO US 41 1 BETWEEN APPLETON AND NEE AH -ME A SH A TELEPHONE 725-0051 OR 739 3503 A prelude to the upcoming skiing season is slated this weekend in the form of a Ski Fair at Janus, W. College Ave.

Ski films will be shown continuously Friday and Saturday. A binding safety demonstration will be given in connection with the films. Packers over Chiefs-Just as the Vikings never lose to the Lions, the Packers do consistently well against the Chiefs. In order for that kind of fortune to continue, the Pack secondary will have to handle Len Dawson a bit better than they coped with Fran Tarkenton and Norm Snead. It shapes up as a monumental defensive battle, and I figure the Bay offense can come up with the big play or two that it will take to win.

Ohio State over Wisconsin-As the surprising Badgers continue their near-suicide schedule (playing three of the nation's top five in a 4-week span), they won't be psyched out by the big, bad Buckeyes. But before the second half has run its course, OSU power figures to wear down the UW battlers. Lawrence over Grlnnell-It's time for the Vikes to chalk up that much-needed first win. But they won't do it if they approach the game as Chicago's Bears did against New Orleans. Fox Lutheran over Fondy Springs-The collision of the Fox Valley Christian Conference's two most surprising teams is especially important to the Foxes and their title hopes.

Our guess is that FVL's ground attack will eventually solve a strong Ledger Appleton West over Neenah The rugged defense of the FVA co-leaders will get yet another significant test from a Rocket attack that has become well diversified. It looks like a tight contest; with the Terrors getting the nod on consistency to date.

Another feature of the fair will be a ski swap and used ski sale. Equipment for all members of the family will be available, and no charge will be made for this service. Informal showings of ski fashions will be presented at 6:30 and 7:30 p. m. Friday and at 11 a.

Free ski patches and comic books will be given. No admission will be charged at the fair, and the public is invited.

Roger Bramer had 24 out of 25 and scores of 23 of 25 were turned in by George and Frank Zimmer.

State St. Ph. 733-2595 University of Houston, presumably will replace guard Bill Lueck, who has been sidelined by a knee injury incurred in last Sunday's 16-14 victory over the Giants. "Bill is improving," Devine said, "Bat he won't play against the Chiefs. Everybody else will be ready." The Packers will conclude their practice week here Saturday and leave by bus for Milwaukee at 3 p.m., Devine said.

He added, however, "Saturday's practice depends on the weather. It's not imperative to work out Saturday if the weather is bad." Kansas City enters Sunday's contest with the American Football Conference's leading passer and pass receiver. Quarterback Lennie Dawson has mounted a glittering 69.6 per cent efficiency average, based on 39 completions in 56 attempts for 432 yards and one touchdown. Favorite target Dawson's favorite target of late, running back Ed Podolak, paces all AFC passcatchers with 19 receptions for 164 yards. Teammate Jerrall Wilson also is second in punting with a 47.5-yard average for 20 kicks.

Ron Widby is the Packers' only statistical leader in the National Football Conference, where he is No. 1 in punting with a 45.9-yard average. Chester Mar-col, his kicking comrade, is sixth in scoring with 31 points. Jan Stenrud, KC's longtime placekicking specialist, is seventh in AFC scoring with 25 points despite having already had four field goal attempts blocked. Although the World Series will be carried nationally by NBC, Sunday's Packer-Chief game will be telecast regionally by Channel 5, the station has announced.

AAets Continued From Page 1 1 about," said Cincinnati's Johnny Bench. "We thought they were going to kill him." Rose, who was on base when the last out of the game was made, raced through the crowd untouched into the Cincinnati dugout. Several of the Reds brandished bats just in case they were needed against the mad mob. If the cops weren't going to stop those maniacs, we would," said Bench. In the ninth inning, some officials of the Cincinnati family were evacuated from near the Reds' dugout when unruly fans started to muscle toward the field.

About 25 people were escorted to safety in an alleyway under the stands leading to the Reds' clubhouse. Two of them were little girls, both crying and obviously frightened. "I saw some little girls being pushed face-first in the dirt," said Bench. "It was a disgrace. This wasn't a black mark on baseball-it was a black mark on Shea Stadium.

The police did nothing, they just stood around." Many of the more than 50,000 fans at Shea Stadium had plenty of time to warm up for their passionate celebration. The Mets had taken a 6-2 lead with a four-run fifth inning highlighted by Cleon Jones' run-scoring double. Then it was just a matter of time before the Mets won their second pennant in five years. isSmoailJiiasSilk pv CINCINNATI NEW YORK ab bl abr bi Rose It WGarreft 3b 5 1 1 0 4 12 0 4 110 4 0 11 4 0 11 3 0 0 0 Morgan 2b Driessen 3b TPerei lb Bench Griffey rf Miliar. 2b CJones rf Mllner lb Kranpool If Mays cf Grote Hahn cf 4 2 2 0 5 13 2 3 110 2 0 12 3 111 4 0 10 4 0 0 1 4 0 10 Geronlmo cf 4 0 0 0 Chanev ss 2 0 0 0 10 10 Harrelson ss 4 0 2 1 Seaver 3 110 McGraw 0 0 0 0 Stahl ph Bllllnghm Gullett Carroll Crosby ph Grlmsley King ph 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 f5Sh, ry special purchase! jjL polyester doubleknit sportcoats and blazers iCllwm selling nationally for $40 jfjl Believe it!
