WWy, THAT CLOCK etaae- I ALOC COST $600 t As luck would have it, a warm sun, wilting humid New Yorkers, turned up 24 hours late. The weather man promised more of the same Wednesday but he also forecast scattered thundershowers late in the day. The fight could not be held Tuesday night because of a mutual no-conflict agreement between the New York Yankees and Giants. The Giants were playing a twi light-night doubleheader at home with Cmcmnati. If postponed Wednesday, the bout will go on Thursday despite a Dedger-Giant night game at the Pe4o Grounds. This was a "write in" game no' originally scheduled, and thus is not covered in the Yank-Giant pact. Robinson Odds Up Strong Robinson support, ap pearing shortly after Tuesday's original weigh-in, changed the otfds from 6 to 5 and "pick 'em" to make Sugar Ray a 13 to 10 favorite in his bid for a third title. Sugar Ray, the middleweight champ, weighed 160 to Maxim's 1744 Monday but they must weigh again Wednesday. Wily Jack Kearns, veteran man ager of Maxim, resorted to a rule book technicality to claim he was supposed to weigh in Tuesday and not Wednesday. The doctor quoted the New York State Ath letic Commission rule book as fol lows: ' In the event of a postponement due to weather conditions, new weights and physical examina tions will be required the next day." Weieh in Today As Wednesday is "the next day" he put Pal Joey on the scales and weighed him in at lim. Bob Christenberry, chairman of the commission, was expected to take a tiim view of such shenanigans and insist on a second weigh-in in the Madison Square Garden lobby at noon Wednesday as an nounced. Because Maxim must make 175 pounds or less and Robinson has no weight problem, many feel the postponement will be more of a strain on the champ from Cleve land. He worked much harder than Robinson, boxed over 100 rounds, and trained to hit a peak near the class limit Monday. The two-day wait is bound to have some ef fect Postponements seldom help the gate for any sports event and there were the usual cancellations by out-of-towners who could not stay over for the fight. Jim Nor ris, International Boxing Club president, said there was an ad vance sale of $270,000. He pre dicted a gate of between $350,000 nd $400,000 with 35,000 people.

Salem Man Assists in Rescue Of 4, Icy Waters of East Lake EUGENE Four persons owed their lives today to a combination of Boy Scout preparedness, medical knowledge and Missouri River boat skill. The four were rescued from icy East Lake. They are C. A. Sias, school principal at Elmira; Frank and Russell Alsip. Monmouth, and a man identified only as Denny. They had been fishing. They, were rescued by Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Michel, Eugene; Dr. Lewis Clark, Salem, and Mrs. Ivy Snod grass. The Michel boat was headed shoreward to escape an approach ing blizzard when occupants noticed a small green rowboat capsize. Those in the small boat made it to a rubber boat and were hanging on, but their overturned craft came up beneath them and all were in danger of being swamped in the rough water. One of those clinging to the rub ber boat shouted to Dr. Michel that he'd better take the women ashore before attempting a rescue but the doctor decided that time was all-important and finally got the four victims into his own craft. Dr. Michel, who used to be a riverboat man on the Missouri, also had hot chocolate and boul-li-n nH treats the wet fisher- men for shock. One was so far crrw th. H or for Mnressed doubt .1 he could have held on much longer. There was another ray of light besides the rescue fishing tackle had been wedged in tne over turned boat and was recovered when the boat was towed ashore where Mrs. Lewis Clark and others were awaiting them.

Senators Offer 0 & C Dispute Compromise WASHINGTON (JP A compro mise-plan has been proposed in the I Senate to get funds for construc tion of access roads in O Sc C tim ber lands. A bill from the Appropriations j Committee earmarked million ' dollars for O Sc C road construc tion by the Bureau of Land Man- ' agement. A provision stipulates the road costs would be a reimburs able charge against the O &c C fund. This is to satisfy criticism in the House against distribution of the O Xc C fund. In the past the Ore gon counties got 50 per cent of the receipts from timber sales on O & C land. Last year, however, the government's share of receipts fi nally repaid the government's cost in revesting the lands. That made the counties eligible for 75 per cent of the receipts. The House objected, and funds have been withheld since, while an attempt is made to determine how the money should be split in the future.
