Cousy Heroics
utCe|tics in
PIayoff Lead

BOSTON, April 6 (AP).-
"Cousy's back. That's the
story"
BoSton's Bill Russell was
talking about the great per-
formance of teammate Bob
CouSy, who led the Celtics to
a vital 127-102 playoff VIC
tory over the st. Louis Hawks
last night.
The decision gave Boston
a 3-2 edge in the best-of seven
series that shifts to st. Louis
for the sixth game tomorrow
night. The seventh game, il
necessary, will be in Boston
Saturday afternoon and will
be shown on television CWRC-
| A..
Cousy was the key to the
decision that gave the defend
ing champions the whip hand in
the playoffs. The longtime star
had been in one of the worst
slumpS of his 10-year profess
sional career. He had announc-
ed that if he didn't break out
of the doldrums he would
bench himself for the good of
the team.
There was no need to.
Standing Ovation
The Boston Garden crowd of
l3,909 gave him standing
ovation when he took a
breather midway through the
second quarter. By that time
he had engineered a drive that
broke the game open, giving
Boston a 48-30 lead.
st. Louis was only one point
back, 1924, when the big push
started. Cousy scored on one
of his dazzling layups, worming
his way past three defenders,
Then he struck on a long, one
hand push shot. Then he set
up Tommy HeinSohn for
another, and Boston was in
front to stay. Cousy wound up
with 81 points and 10 assists.
I wouldn't say Cousy was
the difference" st. Louis Coach
Ed Macauley said. But he's
the quarterback. When he's up,
the team is up. He gave them
the momentum, and when a
great club like that has mo-
mentum they're just hard to
stop"
Boston led at all quarter
marks, 1926, $3.50, and 95-78.
Only the scoring of Bob
Petit and Cliff Hagan kept the
Hawks in the game. Petit had
% points and Hagan %.
No Brawling Affair
The game, while rough
enough, didn't materialize into
the brawling affair that was
anticipated.
Mendy Rudolph and Jim
Duffy, the officials, handed out
fouls quickly in the opening
minutes to keep things in
hand, but it got rougher as
time went on.
The Celtics played the last

mination, and most important
here, his putting touch.
A glance at Barber's 1860
record makes Walls selection
appear reasonable.
Barber won the Yorba Linda
Open in California over a long
golf course. He was third at
Phoenix over a short one. but
runnerup to Sam Snead in the
$4,000 De Soto Lakes Open
in Florida over the longest
course the pros have played
in two months.
Stamina Could Be Factor
And last week at Whining
ton, N. c., Barber was fifth
over another long course. Bar
ber also was second in the
PGA last year over a long
course. He's the smallest guy
on the tour but he's close to
second in money winnings. No
body is close to Arnold Palmer,
winner of four tournaments
and the heavy favorite here of
most of the pros.
Against Barber is the fact
that he is close so often, but
actually wins few tournaments.
His lack of stamina could be
a factor under the pressure of
the final round.
The 18th, 18th and 18th holes
were closed yesterday, with the
18th resembling a small river
