Who Won

> The Montreal Canadiens: an easy, 4-0 victory over the Chicago Black Hawks in the last game of the Stanley Cup playoffs; at Montreal. Jean Beliveau started the rout with a goal after 14 sec. of play, and the Canadiens added the other three before the first period ended. After that, it was back to the brawl. In seven games -- 17 1/2 hrs. of playing time--players from both teams spent 5 hrs. 29 min. in the penalty box.

> The Boston Celtics: a 129-96 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers at Boston in the final game of the National Basketball Association playoffs, clinching their seventh straight world championship. Even though Captain Bill Russell was down to one eye--the other was badly bloodied by an opponent's finger--the Celtics outscored the Lakers 20-0 in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter to win the best-of-seven series, four games to one.

> Randy Matson, 20: a new world shotput record (his second), with a put of 69 ft. 3/4 in., in a triangular meet; at Austin, Texas. Wearing an elastic band to protect a strained ligament in his left knee, Matson smashed his best mark by a full 13 in.
