Leafs Take Stanley Cup Toronto -lUPIl- The Toronto Maple Leafs had just com pleted a sweep of honors for one National Hockey league season and the word from champagne guzzling players was that they all would be back next year. That included goalie John ny Bower, who hides his age like a woman but is at least 40 years, and David Kcon, who has just begun to terror ize the NHL. And, from the horse's mouth, came an assurance that manager-coach Punch lm lach would return in his dual capacity although winning the NHL pennant and his second straight Stanley Cup was now an accomplished dream. "I' have no plans to quit," Imlach said between gulps of French vintage champagne. "Of course its up to the play ers," he said but quickly add ed "I'm joking so don't take me seriously." The Leafs won last night's game 3-1 and the series 4-1.
