Rookie Status
Questioned By
NEW YORK liTI Jack Sanford,
ace of the Philadelphia Phillies'
pitching stau, appears to have a
stranglehold on the National
League Rookie of the Year award.
But the voting for American
League honors is liable to wind
up in a state of confusion.
The player involved is Frank
Malzone, Boston Red Sox third
baseman. The big question: Is he
or is he not a rookie?
The facts are these:

Of Malzone
News Scribe
1. Malzone played in 27 games
last season. He batted 103 times
and had a .lbs average
2. No one seems to know what
constitutes a rookie.
3. No regulation is likely to be
put on the tiooks this year.
Writer Has Opinion
Ihe president of the Baseball
Writers' Assn. of America, Dan
Daniel of the New York World-
Telegram and Sun, believes that
Malzone, who is having a fine sea
son, is not a first-year player.
"How can a player who actually
failed as a rookie last season and
played as much as he did be eligi
ble tms year.' it just isn t lair.
In my opinion Sanford and Tony
Kubek of the Yankees should
win," he said.
Daniel pointed out quickly that,
although he selects the writers who
will participate in the post-season
balloting (there are three from
each major league city), he will
not attempt to influence any of
them.
Writers Disagree
"We tried to come up with a
ruling last month In St. Louis,"
said Daniel. "But the writers
couldn't get together. Some of
them felt as I did that players with
15 or more games or pitchers with
five complete games in previous
seasons should not be eligible."
In 109 games this season, Mal
zone has put together a .305 bat
ting average. He has hit eight
home runs and batted in 68 runs.
Kubek, who has played five pos
itions for the Yanks, has appeared
in 84 games. He also shows a .305
batting mark but he's had only
two homers and 25 RBIs.
Sanford, who pitched in three
games in 1956, has won 15 games
and lost only four. He leads his
circuit in strikeouts with 142 and
has an earned run average of 2.93.
Patty Berg Winner
In Tarn 0'Shanter
CHICAGO Utl Patty Berg fig
ures she has plenty of more
"worlds" to conquer.
"Retire? Me? I've made up my
mind to play until I'm 50," said
the red-ahired perennial tourna
ment favorite, who is 39.
She'll 'be back trying for her
fifth "world" championship at Tarn
O'Shanter next year.
She won the $6,000 top prize and
the "world" crown yesterday in
an 18-hole playoff with 37-year-old
Fay Crocker of Montevideo, Uru
guay. They tied at 302 after the regu
lation 72 holes Sunday, the tie com
ing when Patty rolled in a 25-foot
putt for a birdie 3 on the last hole.
Patty fired a 1-over-par 77 to
beat Miss Crocker by two strokes
in the playoff. The first prize, big
gest award in women's golf, boost
ed Patty's winnings to $15,768, No.
1 position on the women's PGA
money list.
Miss Crocker settled for $2,000.
and is No. 2 on the list with $10,796.

Rademacher Sure He Will
Defeat Floyd Patterson
COLUMBUS, Ca. I Balding,! Chemeres, who takes Rademach-28-year-old
Pete Rademacher may er as seriously as the challenger
still be an amateur as far as mon- regards himself.
ey is concerned the morning of i
Aug. 23, but he is confident that
he'll also be heavyweight cham
pion of the boxing world.
The 210-pound Olympic heavy
weight king insists he will de
throne champion Floyd Patterson
and confound the experts who say
the Aug. 22 scrap in Seattle will
be a worse mismatch than the
Patterson - Hurricane Jackson title
fight.
"With no television and with a
$250,000 guar-wtee for Patterson,
I might wind up with money out
of pocket," said Rademacher,
"but it will be worth it."
Patterson stopped Jackson in 10
rounds, but the beating he gave
the challenger failed to impress
Rademacher. He saw the fight on
television and commented after
ward, "I haven't changed my opin
ion that I can beat him."
Lacks Power
Rademacher conceded that Pat
terson is plenty fast, but he re
mains unconvinced that the cham
pion has enough power to hurt a
good big man Rademacher, for
instance.
"It seemed strange to me that
he didn't salt Jackson away. Pat
terson didn't seem to take ad
vantage of the situation he had
created when he got Jackson in
trouble," said Rademacher after
watching Floyd deck the Hurri
cane twice in the early rounds of
their battle in New York.
"Patterson hits so fast that I be
lieve most of his blows are lack
ing in power. It seems to me that
a man in Jackson's condition after
those first and second rounds
shouldn't have been in there until
the 10th," the amateur champion
declared.
Chemcres, who has worked with
Rademacher since 1950, does most
of the talking for the big fellow.
He rates Pete as a pro already
and has little patience with crit
ics who decry Rademachcr's lack
of professional experience
"The guy has been boxing for
10 years, lie r like a pro to me
He fights like one. The only dif
ference is he's never got paid for
it, says Chemcres, who began
training Rademacher when Pete
was a Washington State College
undergraduate.
Three Straight KO'S
Rademacher wrote Chemeres
then, asking if he could use the
trainer's Evergreen gym
Seattle to work out. Chemeres saw
him kayo three opponents in one
night in Golden Cloves compel!
tion at Tacoma. He trained him
for three years and watched him
win the national Golden Gloves
crown at Boston in 1953. When
Rademacher won his Olympic
berth last year at San Francisco,
Chemeres was there.
The chalbnger scored three
straight knockouts in Melbourne
last December to win the Olympic
championship.
Patterson isn't inclined to un
derrate Rademacher's amateur
opposition.
"Anyone who wins an Olympic
title has to be good to beat the
world s best amateurs. 1 am going
to be fully prepared," the cham
pion said the other day.
He had better be, according to

More Mature
'Pete is a mature man. where-
Patterson still hasn't
reached maturity," say3 Chemer
es. "He can take a punch and
throw one, and he does have the
big punch."
Rademacher and Chemeres
aren't talking about "battle
plans." but Rademacher says "I
expect to make full use of my
physical advantages." He claims
a 4 W inch advantage in reach
over the smaller Patterson anil
will probably carry a 25-pound
weight advantage into the ring.
The challenger has never gone
more than a few rounds in a fight
(amateurs usually fight three
rounds), but that doesn't mean the
Rademacher-Chemeres firm will
shoot for a quick knockout.
"We'll fight the fight we think
necessary to win," Chemeres said.
Hademachcr said his mind has
been set on landing the champion-
snip lor two years and he had not
had time to make any fistic plans
beyond Aug. 22.
Patterson Arrives
In Seattle, Wash.
SEATTLE W Floyd Patter
son, world s heavyweight cham
pion, came to Seattle Monday to
collect $250,000 for climbing into
the same boxing ring with the
world's amateur champion, Pete
Rademacher.
The 22-ycar-old titleholder
stepped from the train after his
long, transcontinental journey
looking fit and ready to go any
time. Their fight is set for the
night of Aug. 22 in Sicks' Stadium.
Asked if he were taking the sec
ond defense of his title seriously,
Patterson replied:
"I've got to take Pete serious.
He's a pro. You have to be an
excellent fighter .to qualify for the
Olympics and in my book, Rade
macher, with all his experience,
ranKs as a pro.
The champion and his follow
ers were taken by automobile to
nearby Kent where Patterson will
begin training. Hademachcr al
ready is in training at Issaquah,
a few miles away.
Patterson guessed his weight at
about 186 pounds, just a couple
of pounds more than he weighed
when he knocked out Tommy
(Hurricane) Jackson in New York
July 29.
Patterson loosened up coming
out on the train, working out in
the baggage car, but still figured
he had gained a pound or so. "I
eat real well on the train," he
said.
Rademacher chalked up his 84th
round of leather tossing Sunday
with two brisk stanzas with his
sparring partners.
Hauemacner will, lane Monday
off but will have a complete phy
sical checkup by three Seattle
physicians.

Tuei. Aug. 13, 1957 The
Radio, Television Spurned
In Heavyweight Title Joust
By JACK HEWINS
SEATTLE W
NO radio, nO
television.
When Floyd Patterson and Pcle
Rademacher meet here Aug. 22 it
will be the first time a heavy
weight championship fight has
not been broadcast since the Roar
ing Twenties when Jack Dempsey
was king of the ring.
Promoter Jack Hurley, who has
opined over television that tele
vision is a monster, said Friday
he will not permit radio and TV
even if he has a complete sellout
of the $400,000-capacity Sicks' Se
attle Stadium.
It wouldn't be fair to the peo
ple who have bought tickets," as
serted the gaunt, plain-spoken man
known hereabouts as "The Dea
con." He has been a foe of TV
for many years, claiming it was
running me out of business Dy
giving away my product."
Even Hurley best friends arc
puzzled that he can cold-shoulder
the added thousands that televis
ion and radio could bring. They
have heard him remark that
man s only hobby should be count
ine his monev."
Probing his memory, nuriey
said the first heavyweight title
fight given radio coverage was the
Dempsey-Georges Carpenter bout
in 1921. All others since have been
broadcast and in recent years
telecast. i
This decision means Rademach- j
er's cut of the gate will be zero. I
Pete's backers in Georgia have '
put up a $250,000 guarantee for ;
Patterson and will take 60 per cent !
of the gate. With a $400,000 sell-!
out, that leaves the Rademacher
camp $10,000 short of breaking
even.
For brawny Pete this is noth-
ing new. An amateur fighter for i
nigh onto 15 years, the Olympic !
champion is accustomed to col
lecting no money for displaying
his ring talents.
