Archie Moore Rushes To Stricken Wife SAN DIEGO. Calif. (UPI) Boxer Archie Moore sped to the bedside of his stricken wife to day, interrupting training again for his return match with Yvoo Durelle.

' but earlier, the hospital said she was in serious condition. Dr. Kenneth Cales called Moore home from Montreal, telling him his wife's life "is at stake." Cales has been treating Mrs. Moore for the past 10 days and had tentatively set surgery for Tuesday. But early Monday, she took a turn for the worse, and he ordered her to surgery immedi ately. "This is the worst thing that could happen," Moore told friends here by telephone before be flew from Montreal. "This is terrible. I've got to do right by my wife. It's no tough decision for me. I must be at my wife's side. If necessary, they'll have to set the fight back, there's no alternative but another postponement." A decision on whether to set the rematch back is expected to day. Manager Jack Kearns said be would talk to Archie before making any decision.

They made two mistakes when they paid Rocky to write a magazine story called "for (VI, OOO I'd fight any of these bums." First, the sub title should real "Make Me Mad Enough and 1 H Do It for Free." Second, they translated it into English and thus, to be forceful, it has to be translated bacx into Grazianoisin But his observations are quite interesting. Enjoy Being Dull He sums up the box fighters of today, as well as the fight game, with pithy nonchalance, to wit: "These guys ain't just dull. They seem to enjoy bein' dull. And ya see a guy drip a drop of blood and right away somebody sex that the other guy is a killer." Floyd Patterson, the former heavyweight champion who be comes the invisible roan between bouts and did his most recent training in the secluded wilds of New Jersey, gets a straight tip from the Kock. One thing about Graziano, between fights he met more people than a widow at a seashore resort. "Patterson should oughtta re member," says the Rock, "that you don't excite people by hiding jway in New Joisey. People is like me. When 1 go to Joisey. 1 go there t'play golf."

"I wouldn t exactly say I'm real distinguished actor like Vic tor Mature." be allows, "although I do okay in my league." One of his difficulties quite ap parently is in mastering his lines. 'I make believe I m limn , the Rock admits. "But I don't stick to 'em. After all, I can always add a few libs and get along." Steve Allen agreed to go along with Rocky on this basis, how ever. "Just act natural," Allen told him. "Say what you feel like. Only, don't curse." Rocky enjoys comedians and feels a close kinship with then Half the comedians in the world used to be fighters.

Harold Gorr.es ui rrovioence ex- niaini-d his phenomenal victory over Paul Jorgensen of Port Ar- thur Tex., Monaay nigra in win- ' ning the world's junior lightweight ' championship. Gomes, who was decked four times by th1 24-year-old Jorgen- '. sen. was declared the winner by unanimous decision after a rough , and tough brawl in which Jorgen sen was cautioned repeatedly for throwing low blows. -I'll meet him anywhere," said Gomes in his dressing room after the 15-round bout at Pierce Me morial Stadium. "And as far as those three knockdowns in the 11th round go, 1 think my head was pretty clear. As soon as I came back to my corner. I was ok." Gomes, who forced the fight throughout, with good use of a right-left combination, had beaten Jorgensen previously at Miami, Fla. He termed the battle "the fight of all fights." He also glossed over his knockdown in the 15th round, saying that "I wanted to knock Jorgensen out." Jorgensen said that he "never was tired but I ran out of ga in the 11th. the round in which he decked Gomes three times for eight counts. He said he thought he "had Gomes in the 1 1th. but I guess he was much faster than -me to night." He said he'd "like to try Gomes in Texas." The highly partisan crowd of 3.437 witnessed its first champion ship bout in Rhode Island since 113. The fight marked the renew al of activity in the junior light weight class. Australia Nets j .. finxIC lllri lAin MEXICO CITY UPI Victory over Mexico means that Aus- altralia has a "good chance to re- cover the Davis Cup," non-playing captain Harry Hopman of the Aussies said today. Australia, starting its drive to regain the cup it lost to the United States last December, wrapped up a 4-1 triumph over Mexico in the first round of American Zone eliminations Mon day on a pair of five - set singles wins by Rod Laver and Roy Emerson. The red-haired Laver. surprise finalist at Wimbledon this year, supplied the clincher for the Aus sies but had to come from be hind to notch a 6-3, 6-8, 4-6, 7-5, 6-3 victory over Mexican cham pion Antonio Palafox. That gave the Aussies an un beatable 3-1 lead in the best-of-five series so Emerson, making his singles debut in cup play, was given the final singles as signment instead of southpaw ace Neale Fraser. Emerson made good by downing Mexican veter an Mario Llamas, 6-4, 6-2, 4-6, 4-6, 6-0. "I said before that Mexico was our big obstacle." said Hopman, guiding genius of Aussie cup teams for many years. "Now that they have been eliminated, I believe we have a good chance to recover the Davis Cup." GLASS Window, plate, auto ana Thermepane in stock. GLAZING SERVICES Millar's Cabinet Shop
