with Bobhy Pugh outsule Montreal KINGSTON, -The New York Rangers of the National Hockey League opened their training camp here Monday with 34 players. With the retirement of goalie Jacques Plante, the Rangers have a key position to fill. There are four goalies in camp but none played in the NHL last year. But Coach George (Red) Sullivan cited the fact that Detroit Red Wings' goalie, Roger Crozier, had no big league experience until he started playing last year. Crozier won the NHL rookie of the year award as he posted a 2.42 goal-against average, second best in the league.

The four New York goal-tenders are Cesare Maniago, 26, leading goaltender and most valuable player in the Central Professional Hockey League last season with the Minneapolis Bruins; Don Simmons, 34, a veteran of eight NHL season who played with Tulsa last season; Gilles Vil-lemure, 25, from the Vancouver Canucks, a Ranger LIVING DANGEROUSLY Those modernists of the golf links who laugh at the rare breed that clings to wooden shafted clubs, should take warning. A 41-year-old Japanese banker was struck dead by lightning while playing at a posh Singapore golf club Sunday. The steel-shafted club in the banker's hand was completely melted and his cap burned to cinders by a lightning bolt. It was the finish for banker Hideo Aya of Tokyo. The sad item and the local humidity inspired this: "Laid to rest is steel-shafter Hideo He was blotted out like a faulty video If he'd been shooting with wood Like a cautious golfer should, There'd be no mourning today in Tokyeo!"

Richelieu. The chart students were so impressed with the recent figures linked with Harry's Laura, Lady Heel and Flying Gypsy that they neglected Patty Dares at the mutuels. They ignored Patty Dares shamefully, despite the fact the entry of Fred and Marion Renz had been showing vastly improved form in the past month after a single win this season. The pfcer appeared to be regaining the speed he showed in winning the 1964 Empress over the same track. The fact that Pretty Dares was starting from seventh position also contributed to the wagering neglect and the horse's 21-1 odds at post time.

It's a reminder that HTA officials, at last week's press conference, had emphasized the fact that in such a featured event, post positions aren't as important as some patrons believe. Lady Heel, beaten a head by Patty Dares, started from the sixth spot. Impressed by the win, Patty Dares' owners have shelled out S600 supplementary entry money to send their pet in the SI 0,000 added Laurentian Pace at Richelieu Friday night.
