tional Hockey League team yes-
terday, spurning an offer from

tract which he said would pay
"in six figures," and included
fringe benefits, performance bo-
nuses and a job in the, front of-
fice when his playing days are
over.
Delvecchio has played his en-
tire professional career, 22 years,
with the Red Wings. He has been
in the NHL tonger than any other
active player.
Ralph the Cougar
CHICAGO - The Chicago Cou-
gars of the World HockeyAsso-
ciation yesterday lured veteran
center Ralph Backstrom away
from the Chicago Black Hawks
of the rival National Hockey
League for an estimated $750,000.
The 35-year-old Backstrom, a
16-season NHL player, was the
second Black Hawk standout
signed by the Cougars in two
weeks. On July, defenseman Pat
Stapleton was signed for an es-
timated $1 million as Cougar
player-coach.
Another Black Hawk, star cen-
ter Stan Mikita, is being wooed
by the Cougars.
Backstrom had a cereer NHL
total of 278 regular season goals
with the Montreal Canadiens,
Los Angeles Kings and Black
Hawks, who got him from Los
Angeles last Feb. 25.

President Walter Kaiser of the
Cougars said a settlement, not in-
cluding players, had been made
with the Los Angeles Sharks, who
held the WHA's original negotia-
tion rights to Backstrom.

NEW YORK - Bill Bradley,
coming off his finest National
Basketball Association season
ever, has signed a one-year con-
tract to play with the New York
Knicks, club president Ned Irish
announced yesterday.
The 30-year-old former Prince-
ton star, whose professional ca-
reer was delayed two years while
he studied at Oxford University
as a Rhodes Scholar, will be play-
ing in his seventh season for the
defending world champions.
Last year Bradley played in
all 82 regular season games and
17 playoff contests as the Knicks
captured their second NBA title
in four years. He was also named
to the NBA All-Star team for the
first time.
Bradley scored a career-high
1,319 points last year, averag-
ing 16.1 points per game in reg-
ular season action and 18.6 in the
playoffs. His free throw percent-
age during the 1972-73 campaign
was .871, erasing a Knick mark
of .868 set by Kenny Sears in
1959-60.

where he said his decision to stay
with the Detroit club for at least
another year was influenced by
his family, his wife and a good
offer from the front office.
"I've been here all my life-
and I've been treated just fine,"
the 41-year-old star center said.
"It's just justice that I stay with
Detroit."
