Decision Over
Scrappy Lane
Ity Jark Cuddy
tri stnrr whit
HOUSTON, Tex. (UPD-Lighl-weight
champion Joe Brown said
looay he will grant a return bout
"as soon as possible" to south
paw Kenny Lane, who menaced
his crown Wednesday night before
a sellout crowd that paid a re
cord Texas light gale.
Brown's thundering finish In
the 15th round probably saved his
135-pound title on the' unanimous
decision that snapped Lane's win
ing string at J9 straight and ex-
t'ndcd Joe's unbeaten streak to
IS. including a draw.
Because of the terrific fight,
the new record Texas gate of $69,-
203 and a record paid crowd of
Rex Braun, president of
Texas Boxing Enterprises, Inc.,
announced, "We'll stage a return
title fight In late September at
the Coliseum, if the managers are
willing."
Claim Lane Won
Lane, of Muskegon, Mich., and
co-managers Jack Kearns and
Pete Petroskey declared in unison
that Kenny had won' Wednesday
night's thrilling contest at the
Coliseum, but hadn't got the ver
dict. They demanded a return as
quickly as possible.
However, Lou Viscusl, manager
of Brown, was not as eager for a
return tilt as tlio champion was.
He said, "I don't know what
we'll do next. We'll have to
talk things over for a couple of
days."
Brown, 32, of New Orleans, re
ceived tha largest purse of. his
career approximately J-12,400
lor his magnificent defense
against the underrated challenger
who had gone into the ring a 13-5
tuiderdog.
Lane, 26-year-old ex farm boy,
will get half as much as Brown
or about $21,200 lor his 20 per
cent of tha net gate and $45,000
TV money.
Each weighed 1M!4, pounds.
Lnno Staggered In 15th
Brown wrapped up a success
ful fifth defense of the 115-pound '
title in the 15th round when he
twice staggered Lane with right
uppcrcuts and left hooks 'and
knocked out his mouthpleca for
Hie second time in the bout.
The champion received the un
animous decisions on a 10-point-must
basis as follows:
Referee Ernie Taylor, 143-142:
judge Jimmy Webb, 145-141, and
judge Bill Cornelius, 144-143.
The decision was greeted by a
roar of mingled cheers and boos,
reflecting divided opinion among
the fans.
United Press International had
the bout even, with 113 points
for each fighter. A pool of 17
writers at the ringside showed 13
favoring Brown, three for Lane
and one even.
There were no knockdowns, al
though each was well shaken
many times.
Folley Meets
Rademacher
Friday Night
LOS ANGELES (UPI) - Bank
ing heavyweight contender Zoni
Folley battles n personal "Jinx"
Friday night against Pete Uncle-
mncher In a bout that may decide
the next challenger for champion
Floyd Patterson.
Folley, almost certain to enter
the ring for the rationally tele
vised 10-round bout as the favor
ite, has won 43 of 45 professional
fights, but his only losses have
been In the Olympic Auditorium
where Friday's fight Is being
staged.
The charity "Fight for Lives"
will be blacked out within a 150
mile radius of Los Anseles.
Folley's only pro setbacks have
been at the hands of Johnny
Summerlin and Young Jack John
son, early in his career. His loss
to Johnson came after he suffered
a rib Injury in a gym workout.
Olympic matchmaker George
Parnassus said toctay that he was
asking the National Boxing Asso
ciation and the California Athle
tic Commission to recognie the
winner of Friday's bout as the No.
1 contender for the title.
Folley has ranked as the No. 2
and. occasionally, the No. 1, con
tender, for the past several
months. Rademacher has only one
pro fight to his credit, the specta
cular six-round loss to Patterson
last year. Patterson floored him
seven limes, but Rademacher al
so had the champion on the floor
once.

Bauer Leads Bend Hitiers
In Action at The Dalles
Ily Boh Burlier
Bulletin Htull Writer
Rnndom notes on Murray Broth
era' series with The Dalles Inst
weekend which gave the Bend-based
crew Ihe sub-Araa 1 title:
Sid Bauer was trie top local
apple-knocker, pounding out five
hits in eight trips for a fine .625
average. He came through with a
pair of doubles and three singles.
Gary Joanis, team sparkplug and
rated as one of the best catchers
in the state, was third In the rat
ings with a .single, a double and a
triple in one contest and a one
bngger in the other. He finished
with .411 on four for nine.
Pat Connolly, sterling first base
man, hit a home run and two
singles during the matches, to fin
ish with three for five and .600.
Connolly, however, wasn't the
only four-base slugger. Bob Lanza
rot t a poked out a circuit blast in
the first game of Ihe two.
Top run-makers were Joanis and
the lean Connolly, with both cross
ing the plate four times. Lanznrot
ta and Bauer each made the four
sided trip three times.
In fact, every Bend player who
took part. Willi ilio exception of
Pitchers Ld Cecil and Mike Riley,
scored nt least one run.
Bend finished with 22 tallies In
the two tilts, compared with 11 for
Ihe vanquished.
Despite his team's fine showing,
Vinco Gonna still doesn't believe
his boys have really hit their stride
yet.
The 1057 edition of the Murray
ovtlit hit tile peak fairly early in
the season, then tapered off some
what, which hurt the squad's title
prospects somewhat, the mentor be
lieves. This year, the team has lm
prced slowly, wliile being good
enough to win 21 of 27 regular
games.
The team still needs plenty of
work on defense, the perfection
ist who is at the helm says, de
spite the "inspired" play at the
Columbia river town.
Gtnnii hopes that the crew will
reach its peak sometime within the
next week or two, and stay there
long enough to reach national stat
us. On p.ix-r, nt least, things seem

to be breaking for the hometown
el's. They will be here for the Area
1 playoffs this weekend, then, if
they survive, will host the slate
semi-finals. This is despite the fact
lhat semi-finals were here last
year,
Vince explains that Bradford
Clothiers gave up the right to have
the game in Portland in return
tor a juicy guarantee. So, now it's
our regular turn, '.
Don't be fooled into thinking that
John Day will be a pushover for
Bend this weekend, just because
tho team's from out in the "sticks."
In tho first place, any nine has
fo be pretty fair to last this long
in competition and, besides, a 16
6 season total is nothing to be
sneezed at. '
The two clashed twice this year
and Bend, which has met and van
quished squads from several much
larger towns, had to be satisfied
with a split.
In the season-starting tllit, the
builders edged John Dny, here, 8
to 7. Then, just a few weeks ago,
the Eastern Oregonians, on their
own ground, slipped past the trip
takers, to finish on top 3-2.
In the game which the Murray
men dropped to this weekend's foe,
Bend was ahead, 2-0 until the bot
tom of the seventh, when John
Day enmc across with three big
runs to earn the victory.
The leading pitcher for the op
ponents, Joe Hukowiee, did a pretty
fair job against Bend, fanning 35,
walking only one and giving up

fans.

tally.
The Beavers got their run In
the bottom of the opening frame
as Ed Wincenlak stroked a liiwr
down the right field line. Jim
Grcengrass, Solon right fielder
couldn't quite flag it down and it
rolled to the fence with Wincen
iak getting an inside - the - park

With a score of 26 to 7, Moose
defeated Healy's in an American
Little League baseball game, play
ed at Harmon Feild, July 18.

only three hits, striking out eight
and walking three of the losing

including a double while for the
winners, Dick Robinson hit three

He's a sure bet to start one of
the games here. He has a 6-2 rec
ord and would love to take another
from the Deschutes county aggre
gation. Lefthanded Joe is backed up on
tho mound by another lefty, Tom
Sheets, who has a 5-3 mark. Nick
Jackson, with a 3 0 total, and Tom
Wilson, one nnd one, complete the
chut,, ng staff.
Butch Masonhelmer. catcher,
lends the batting parade with a
hefty ".377 on 20 of 53. Joe Smith,
outfielder, has 16 of 48 for .333
and Pitcher Sheets has 15 for 49
and .306.
The team Is batting about .562
which should make the series feat
ure competition between two heavy,
slugging outfits.
