Dethroned Ray
Robinson eyes
fight in Europe
NEW YORK (UPI)--Sugar Ray
Robinson, dethroned as middle
weight champion by the National
Boxing Association and threatened
by the New York State Athletic
Commission, may seek sanctuary
in Europe.
"I've been offered a big guar
antee by promoter Fritz Gretsch
cll of Berlin to defend my title
against Gustav Scholz if I'm
forced out of my own country,"
said Sugar Ray today.
Scholz, of Germany, is the
fourth-ranking contender, but he
has been rejected as challenger
by both the NBA and the New
York commission. Each organiza
tion insisted that 39-year-old Rob
inson defend against former
champion Carmen Basilio of Chit
tenango, N.Y.
The NBA vacated Robinson's
160-pound championship Monday
because of his excessive delay in
signing for a defense against" Ba
silio. And the independent New
York commission probably will
follow suit if he fails to sign by
May 15 for a Basilio match.
Although tho European Boxing
Union has a working agreement
with the NBA, it's uncertain
whether the EBU would concur
with the NBA in dethroning Sugar
Ray, were lie to sign for the
Scholz fight in Germany. West
Germany is a member of the
EBU.
Dr. Ward Wylie, president of
the NBA, announced the with
drawal of championship recogni
tion from Robinson at Mullens,
W.Va., Monday. At the same
time, Wylie ordered a fight for
the vacant crown within 60 days
between former champions Basilio
and Gene Fullmer of West Jor
dan, Utah.
Wylie said the Basilio-FuHmer
winner would defend against an
NBA-selected challenger within 90
days thereafter, and that the chal
lenger might be third-ranking Spi
der Webb of Chicago.
As far as the United States,
Canada and Mexico are con
cerned, Robinson now is recog
nized as champion only in New
York state. And he declared flat
ly at a press conference Monday
night he never would defend in
New York "as long as the pres
ent boxing commission is in of
fice." He charged the New York com
mission had rejected Scholz as an
acceptable challenger and had in
sisted upon Basilio "because of
politics and the lingering power
of Jim Norris." Multi-millionaire
Norris was head of the court-
busted International Boxing Club
monopoly. Now he is top man in
a new organization, Chicago Box
ing Enterprises.

Pirates do about face
with Elroy Face s help
By United Press International
The Pittsburgh Pirates have
done an about face with Elroy
Face.
Off to the worst start in the
National League when they lost
their first five games, the Pirates
have bounced back at a .692 pace
and have moved to within easy
reach of the tightly bunched
league leaders.
And, the "big man" in the
comeback has been the little, 155
pound relief ace from Stephen
town, N.Y., who has scored three
of the Pirates' nine wins, saved
another game and has a 1.93
earned run average for seven ap
pearances totaling 14 innings this
season.
Face cleaned up in tidy fashion
again Monday night when the Pi
rates shaded the Chicago Cubs,
2-1, and thus moved into fifth
place only two games behind the
first-place San Francisco Giants.
The victory was the Pirates' third
straight, their fourth in five
games and their ninth in 13 since
April 15 when they dropped their
fifth consecutive game.
During the same three-week pe
riod since April 15, the Giants
show an 8-7 record, the Los An
geles Dodgers an 11-7 mark, the
Milwaukee Braves a 7-7 slate and
the Cincinnati Reds an 8-8 pace.
The in-again, out-again Giants
went back into first place by nine
percentage points Monday night
with a 6-5 win over the Reds while
the Dodgers went into second
place with a 5-3 victory over the
Braves in the other National
League activity. The Boston Red
Sox beat the Kansas City Ath
letics. 8-4, in the only American
League game.
The Pirates, whose last four
victories have been by one-run
margins, scored both their runs in

charged patients to provide mon-
Dr. Ruth Hickok, medical direc-!
tor of the Tri-County Health De- j
part incut. I
In one actual case, logger's
bouts were needed before a pa
tient could return to work. Being
jobless and without funds, he was
kept in a state hospital until the j
needed boots were supplied by the
loan fund. ;
The association, which organi
zed a Central Oregon chapter in
order to conduct a campaign for !
funds, will provide through the !
loan fund such things as transpor- j
tation to jobs or families out-ot-1
ical work and other necessites to j
enable those w ho "come back" to !
become adjusted.
The month of May has been
designated Mental Health month
across the nation, with May II
the particular day of the Bell
Ringer campaign. Mrs. Eugene
Carsey is the Bend supervisor.
Mrs. Jack Copcland is in charge
at Redmond. Miss Helen Beck in
Prineville, and the Rev. Jack Ned
in Madras.
The Rev. James P. MeGugin if
Bend, chairman of the local chap
ter, pointed out that there is no
mental hospital or residential
treatment center in the state ex
clusively for children. They must
be taken to over-crowded state in
stitutions at Salem and Pendleton
and housed with adult patients.
Some 300 youth were cored for
in this way in the last two years.
Goals of the local mental health
chapter are the fostering of coun
selling workshops for ministers,
teachers and parents, and to en
courage a psychiatric medical
doctor to become established in
Central Oregon. The tentative
budget of the Tri-County Health
Department provides for employ
ment of a psychiatric social work
ers to assist mainly with youth
problems.
"Six thousand Oregonians arc
in mental hospitals and we want
to 'help the menially ill come
back' theme of this year's cam
paign," the Rev. Mr. MeGugin
