Maintain 2-Point Lead Romp: rums t- 5-1; SPORTS fs A 0 ark Bucyk les By TOM FITZGERALD suff Koortrr Johnny Bucyk moved into a tie for the Bruins' career record in goals scored Thursday night at the Garden with a pair that led Boston to a 5-1 victory over the Minnesota North Stars. This was the most emphatic margin for the B's against the members of the West group. And if it was something short of a thriller, it was a clear demonstration of superiority. Coach Harry Sinden did not share the majority opinion, however. These two goals gave "The Chief" twelve for the season and a total for his eleven seasons in Boston of 229, matching the figure set by general manager Milt Schmidt.

Bucyk also assisted Johnny Mc-Kenzie, making his fourth goal in two games. The remaining Bruins' scores were negotiated by Tom Williams and Derek Sanderson. All of this added up to a fourth straight win and the sixth in seven games to keep the B's in first place in the East Division, two points ahead of Toronto which defeated Montreal. Adding to the pleasure for the relatively small crowd of 9560 was the fact that the Bruins appeared to have solved their difficulties against the bothersome expansion clubs. teN v.

IV- 4 I "If Ave don't play a lot better than that Saturday night (against Chicago), Sinden said, "we certainly shouldn't expect to win. "We missed too many 3-on-2 chances. If the other team had them, they probably would have capitalized." Like most of their brethren, the Minnesotans stressed the negative, concentration on attempts to impede the designs of the Bruins. The style of the North Stars if that is the word seemed to be nothing much more than messing around and hoping for something to happen.

For while the facilities for the events, athletes, supporting delegates and spectators promise to be superb, they will, in most cases, be reached only by miles of travel through areas of squalor that can only be called dumps of civilization. The new stadiums, pools and arenas are jewels in settings of what from a bus with a police escort-looked like acres and acres of poverty and misery. On a conducted tour for which only 20 of the expected fifty writers here for the Winter baseball meetings showed up, we visited the sports palaces being prepared at a cost of forty million dollars by whizzing past block after block of dingy brick cells in which millions of people were leading a primitive -existence. We whizzed by with the weak witticisms expected of the American tourist: "Does this bus stop at Silver "If this city gets a big league team, I hope they put it in the American League;" 'After this, baseball should hold its next meeting in Saigon." It was ugly but fascinating, depressing but encouraging to see at first hand the extremes at which our world functions. With the Olympics and this great investment In sports palaces, apartment buildings and training centers, Mexico thinks it will gain dividends from world-wide publicity, prestige and tourism that will help raise the living standards of its population.

Because the Mexicans have a wonderful, eye for art and architecture, for color and their new sports structures are magnificent. The Palacio Deportes seating 23,000 for basketball may row seem a long way from being finished, but the steel spiderweb for the dome suggests that it will be a masterpiece when two months before the Games open Lifetime Seat for $1340 Boston wrestles with the problem of building, a stadium that will cost over $50 million, and almost strangles itself in the process.

For soccer and this is a sport that it will be given over to in the Olympics it could not be better.

The cheapest seat for games played there every Sunday costs 48 cents, but lifetime seats can be 9 1 wmimmm mm Six Man Trade Returns Aparicio to White Sox ii I'nllrd Prrsl Intrrntlnnl mm. 1 tl ill the Orioles' way of thinking, and when they agreed to give up right-handed pitcher Bruce Howard, in-fielder Don Buford and Roger Nelson, another right-hander, Baltimore turned over Aparicio, outfielder Russ Snyder and John Matias, a first baseman-outfielder. Matias, a .279 hitter with Elmira this year, is a Hawaii native and the White Sox assigned him to Honolulu of the Pacific Coast League. "This takes care of our infield and puts us right up there again," Ed Short, the White Sox' general manager beamed after making the deal. "I always felt Aparicio was the outstanding shortstop around." The natural question then was why did the White Sox ever trade the 5-foot-7, 150-pound fielding whiz to the Orioles in the first place in 1963.

Short had a ready answer. TRADES Page 43 MEXICO CITY Little Luis Aparicio, on "lendlease" five years, returned to the White Sox from the Orioles Wednesday in a dramatic six-man swap which both clubs feel makes them the top contender again. The Angels also dealt outfielder Jose Cardenal to Cleveland for out-fielder-infielder Chick Hinton, but that trade didn't generate nearly the excitement as one involving Aparicio. To get back the 33-year-old, seven-time All-Star shortstop the White Sox had to out-talk, out-wait and outbid five other major league clubs. The Yankees, Tigers, Indians and Astros all wanted Aparicio as well as the Dodgers until they landed Zoilo Versalles in a five-player deal of their own with the Twins Tuesday night.

But the White Sox were able to come up with the best package to DARRELL BRANDON PITCHES TO TONY CONIGLIARO (Paul J.

A beautiful edifice designed by the man sometimes called the Michaelangelo of Mexico and the man who is chairman of Mexico's organizing committee, Pedro Ramirez Vasquez, it nevertheless has one ominous feature a big moat to keep riotous spectators off the field. Significantly, the stadium that seats 100,000 is used for soccer whereas the stadium that seats the Estadio Olympico in University City will be used for track and field, the top Olympic sport in the United States.

Lower and more saucer like, it is beautiful, with a fast partam (composition track) and, in front, a mural in natural stone by the famous Diego Rivera. This is the stadium of the University of Mexico, where the tuition for citizens is $16.67 a year. Olympic Village privately financed and costing $13,000,000 consists of 29 apartment houses that will hold nearly 10,000 Olympians. For its own athletes, Mexico has built a sports center costing million dollars, where 400 athletes even now are being trained and coached, some by foreign experts. Mexico's amateur athlete, like those of most countries now, will be fully subsidized.

The pre-Olympic Games recently held here showed that athletes from low altitude countries can do well. Medically, it has been concluded that eight days training at this altitude of 7349 feet is sufficent for an athlete to do his best, that events running under 90 seconds of sustained effort will not be slowed, and that performance of events of over 90 seconds may be slowed as much as eight percent. "The altitude is never complained of by winners," said one official dryly," and it is a great excuse for the losers." some heat (fastballs), and I'll know then if I'll have any problems." Brandon, who hadn't thrown a baseball since he injured his back the last week of the season pitching in Baltimore, was happy with his performance. "I didn't feel a twinge or anything. When you haven't thrown a ball that long you wonder what's going to happen when you do.

I didn't feel any pull or pain, so I'm happy." "A great deal of Tony's rehabilitation," said LeRoux, "is going to be psychological. This is a very determined kid, and I think it important that he gets off to a good start next year. If he goes to Spring Training ahead of everyone then they'll have to catch him. "I want him to get a good start so that he won't start pressing. If he went to training camp and started having trouble then it might bother him mentally.

On the other hand, a good start would really give him a boost." Conigliaro won't really start bearing down in his training until Monday, when the rest of LeRoux's exercise class joins the sessions. "We're going to have most of the fellas living in this area working out three times a week," said LeRoux. "Besides Tony and Darrell, TONY Continued from Page 1 Conig nodded agreement. "I didn't have any trouble following the ball. I never lost it in flight or anything like that." Conigliaro first played a pepper game with Erandon, hitting Darrell's lob serves from about 30 feet away, or half the distance to a regulation mound.

In the first sequence Conig hit all 37 tosses, 38 of them sharply. Then it was his turn to throw for Brandon, and Tony was equally adept fielding grounders. If anything," needled Brandon, "your fielding's better than it used to be." Not once in the workout did Conigliaro look at anything that would resemble a major league fastball, and only once did he swing hard as he would in a ballgame. "Don't swing that hard," LeRoux warnrd, "the netting isn't all the way down and you might hit one through the window." So Conig went back to slapping grounders and waiting for the day he could let it all out. "The big moment will come right here in this cage," said Conigliaro, "not in Spring training.

His closest friend is McCarthy. After Brendan gets married next month he plans to live near Terry. "Right now all we're thinking about is Holy Cross." said Terry. "You'll never know how much this game means unless you've played in one. You get the feeling of the tradition and 11 that.

It's so meaningful it's hard to explain. "We're going up there Saturday and we're going to win." rfii A Holy Cross." said Terry. "But it wasn't all me by any means. The line did a fine job and Brendan (McCarthy) kept faking into the middle to throw them off. I ran the same off tackle play 10 or 11 times.

That was Joe's (DiVito) Idea." Erwin can run the 100 in 9.8 and wouldn't mind taking a crack at pro ball. Coach Jim Miller said, "Erwin was great. He would have had an outstanding career here he wasn't bothered by a lot of little injuries. I'd like to see seniors like Terry, McCarthy, DiVito and the rest of them finish up in grand style against Holy Cross." Holy Cross coach Tom flntoture respects Erwin. BolMure said, "He's an outstanding runner and has fine moves.

That whole B.C. backfield fits well to-gether." Milter plans to start his pri-tcaaoa backfield for the first time this year: DiVito, McCarthy, Erwin and Dave Bennett One or more of these backs have been injured since just before the season's opener. Erwin likes playing Holy Cross at Worcester. Two years ajjo he scored three touchdowns as B.C. romped, 35-0.

"Scoring three times was great," said Terry. "But that's the day Brendan did all the work and I just scored from in close." McCarthy was named the game's valuable player and won the O'Melia Award. 'Brendan and I were just talking about that game. Boy, we certainly would like to have a repeat performance." Erwin, a marketing major, hopes to make a living in hotel management.
