o Patterson Predicts Return Battle Ith Johansson Early In Me w Year NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP)-For-mer heavyweight boxing champion Floyd Patterson, who ought to know, says his rematch with Infie mar Johansson will be held "early next year." Patterson, who is training here in a determined effort to regain boxing's richest prize, expects the bout will be held "any place but New York." The 24-year-old Negro fighter clams up about details, however. But if the fight is coine to be held early in I960, the size ot the expected crowd and weather con ditions would dictate a Southern or Pacific Coast outdoor site. I At New York Thursday, Johans I son said he would prefer to fight ! next spring in New York. In Gote- burg. Sweden, Edwin Ahlquist, Jo hansson's adviser, also put in a pitch for New York, i Meantime at Miami, Ela., l'rj I motor V incent J. Vella said he i would sue to attach every avenue of Johansson's income if the son in Miami's Orance Bowl. March 1. Sports Editor Don Sharpe says in the Danbury News Times today! that the ex-champion is unhappy ( about New York and the personal treatment te (Patterson) ic ceived there in his title bout. Losing the crown and taking a right hand pasting from Johans son last June in the Yankee Sta dium isn't exactly what Patterson means. There's more to it than that, he told Sharpe. Here he again but toned his lips. Patterson and his manager, Cus D Amato, have moved into a for mer roadhouse here, high in the Connecticut Hills, where the fight er is training. He says he wants more than anything else to regain the title and to restore D'Amato, currently under suspension in New York state, to good standing. Eloyd says that Johansson's right hand blow that floored him the first time last summer was not a lucky punch. "Like most others," explains the ex-champ, "1 thought that Inge mar's well publicized right was highly overrated, if it existed at 'all."

(API Washington tries to sew up a Rose Bowl bid Saturday against luck lessbut dangerous California. The Huskies, led by quarterback Bob Schloredt, face a Cjlifornia Bear that's lost seven straight, the last four by one touchdown or less. Schloredt, a one-eyed wonder who passes as well as he runs, is backed by fullbacks Ray Jackson and Joe Jones and a solid de fense. The team's sole loss was to undefeated oouthern California, 22-15. USC whipped Cal !4-7. Schloredt ranks second in Big Five total offense, 615 yards; passing, 499 yards and a .503 per centage, and in punting, 41.3 yards per boot. to lose out on the Hose Bowl trip, the Huskies would lose their last two games while Oregon, 7-1, must win its lost two. The Oregon defeat was a one pointer to Washington. Southern California is ineligible for the Bowl because of NCAA sanctions. Portland Boxer .

Running Leader In Wrong Place AMES, Iowa (AP) Fullback Tom Watkins is the leading ground gainer in college football this fall and at a position he didn't want to play. The 182 - pound junior, who reached Iowa State by way of Chi' have to 1 cago and Los Angeles, has run for 707 yards in eigni games, no should add to that appreciably in Saturday's game here with San Jose State. Watkins, who has played five positions in football, had to be sold on playing fullback. "We realized last spring that Tom's greatest potential was at fullback," said Coach Clay Staple ton. "We used persuasion and a little psychology we did a selling job." The quiet Chicagoan was over looked in early games by oppo nents who concentrated on the Cy flnnes' tnueh tailback Dwight Ni chols, the country's No. 2 total offense leader. The outstanding inside and out side running of Watkins and ni chols has brought Iowa State a 6-2 record and a tie for second place iho Kin Eieht Conference. Watkins has good speed dm ne lacked the desire to play fullback Koi-nnse of the sDinncr play so vital to the Iowa State single wing offense. The 22-year-old native of Arkan sas started his football career as m,aivi at Chicago Wonder High. He later played halfback there and at a Los Angeies junior v,um&c Former Cvclone Coach Jim My- lueed Watkins to come to inwa Statu with him in 1957. My ers was an assistant at UCLA at tie time. Two years ago when Watkins was serving out a year of resi dency here, he was the only cap able plaver Myers had who could i,nrn th. rnlp nf the opposing loams' stars during practice all season. Kickoff for the Cal-Washington affair is 1:30- p.m. A crowd of 30,000 is expected in Memorial Stadium for the Bears' final 1959 home game. A 13-6 Washington squeaker over Oregon State and Cat's 20-18 loss to Oregon bring on the talk of a possible upset by the Bears. With the exception of sophomore halfback Bob Wills, and possibly quarterback Larry Parque the Bears should be at full strength. Parque reinjured a shoulder this week. Wayne Crow will handle most of the quarterbacking. Crow leads what a Cal publicist laughingly calls its passing sta tistics, 15 completions in 45 tries. He's seen seven intercepted. The Huskies are doing better in that department, incidentally, than in many a year. They've made 22 thefts. Y' Cagers Form Loops The YMCA basketball leagues for high school youth and adults were organized this week, and play will commence after the first of the year. Openings for teams are available in both the Church League and the Umpqua Valley League.

She has watched her husband play in many games and coach many more, mil mue-eyea, nrown haired, charming Martha Owens insists she doesn't know as much about football as many people think. They ask her. for inslancc, if Washington is going to the Rose Bowl. She answers: "I'm not allowed to talk about it." And sii.i implies she is not even supposed to be thinking about it. "That would be counting our chickens cr some thing." People near her in the football stadium often ask why the team is or isn't using a certain strategy. It does no good, says Mis. Owens, to explain that she is not the coach. And some people, sne smiles, seem to think "I have a priming press in my basement 'urning out football tickets." All stamped "Complimentary." of couise. Those hectic Saturdays reach a climax when Husband jim walks out of the locker room aitcr the game. He doesn't know confides Martha, that you can't win V-m all; "He doesn't figure he's got to lose any," After a defeat he comes out "looking like he a ready to commit suicide." "But when we win,, it's fun." ( Do they celebrate? Sure "we talk ' about the game." Between seasons Mrs. Owens becomes a football widow, with Jim away most of the time mak ing player contacts and giving speeches. "1 don't mind any more," she sighs. "1 just leave the door open for him.'1 But Martha Owens d ws hope the family is through with mov ing. Since her husban.l started coaching they have moved every three years and this is the third at Washington. The Northwest is where she wants to stay. "I like it here," says Martha Owens.

Not so long ago, all of the gas and electric appliances we take for granted today were still dreams in the minds of men ... or crude models of their technically perfected 1959 counterparts. And limited production made them luxuries only the wealthy could afford. In a matter of decades, all this has changed. The appliance industry has created a multitude of home appliances we consider essential today . . . appliances that make our lives easier, healthier and more enjoyable. Mass production has made them available to families in all walks of life. Almost every family is rich in .its possessions. Look around your home and those of your friends ... at the well-healed, well lighted, well-equipped rooms. Look at the ranges, refrigerators, radios, television sets, record-players, freezers, washer-dryers, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners, clocks, coffee makers ... at all the miracles the appliance industry has made available to you.
