W. Pastrcno Beats Rowan In 10-Rounds New York (U.R Young Wil lie Pastrano of New Orleans promised today, "I'll show more speed in future bouts" than he did in his first fight as a heavy weight Friday night while win ning a unanimous 10-round deci sion over tough Joey Rowan at Madison Square Garden. The victory in his New York debut earned 19-year-old Willie another TV-radio fight at the garden on Jan. 6, probably against Chuck Spieser of Lans ing, Mich. Spieser lost to Pas trano in a good fight at Chicago on July 27 but knocked out Paddy Young in the second round last Wednesday. "I felt a little sloppy Friday night because I weighed the heaviest ever," said Willie, who is ranked second among light heavy weight contenders al though he has outgrown the divi sion. "But I was fast enough to beat Rowan and probably for most heavyweights. Just the same, I'll show a lot more speed in the future." Hard Fight Friday night he weighed 18134 pounds exactly the same as heavyweight Rowan of Phoenix ville, Pa., who gave Willie a hard fight and buckled his knees with a left to the head and right to the body in the fourth round. Rowan, 21, had his unbeaten string snapped at nine by Pas trano, whose left jabs and sneaker rights found the target more often and extended Wil lie's unbeaten string to 14. Each fighter had a draw in his un beaten cluster. Irish Joey was warned seven times by Referee Ruby Goldstein for low punches, heeling and butting as he forced the fighting in every round with a combina tion hooking attack to body and head.

MAIN AND CENTRAL Pros Cou Move Info 5-Way Tie By EARL WRIGHT United Press Sports Writer If five National Football League teams the Detroit Lions, Baltimore Colts, Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steel ers and Washington Redskins win today, the division races will be locked tighter than a miser's fist. In that event there would be a four-way tie for first place in the Western Division and a two way tie for the Eastern lead. The Los Angeles Rams, Chicago Bears, Colts and Packers would be tied for the Western lead with 5-4 records, while the Cleveland Browns and Redskins would be tied for the Eastern lead with 6-3 marks. To produce such sardine pack ing in the Western scramble, the Lions (2-6) must whip the Bears (5-3), the Colts (4-4) must defeat the Rams (5-3), and the Packers (4-4) must down the San Fran cisco Forty-Niners (3-5). The Bears are favored by 13 points to boost the league's long est current winning streak to six at Detroit. The Rams, tied with the Bears for the lead, are six point choices at Baltimore. The Packers, tied with the Colts for second, are slim, one point favor ites against the Forty-Niners at Milwaukee. Steelers Must Win To deadlock the Eastern race, the Steelers (4-4) must defeat the champion Browns (6-2) at Cleve land and the Redskins (5-3) must defeat the Cardinals (3-4-1) at Chicago. The Browns, who lead the second-place Redskins by a game, are 11-point favorites. The Cardinals are one-point favorites. The Philadelphia Eagles (3-4-1) visit the New York Giants (3-5) in the other game. The Eagles are favored by Wz points. The last-place Lions, who won the Western title for the past three years, can help decide their successor because two of their remaining games are with the rampaiging Bears. But the Bears, currently the league's hottest team, are in good shape for Sunday's Briggs Stadium tussle while halfback Bob Horn schemeyer and end Dome Dibble of the Lions are out with in juries. - mainder will have to be found. Problems concerning use of the Fairgrounds park also will come up for discussion. Eight Teams in League Teams now in the league are Spokane, Wenatchee, Yakima and Tri-City in Washington, Lewiston, Ida., and Salem and Eugene in Oregon. A possible working agreement with the Se attle Rainiers of the Pacific Coast League also is pending tomorrow night's meeting. James M. (Jim) Fleishman, Portland lumber broker who last week was named league president to succeed Orin C. (Babe) Hollingberry, said he will concentrate his efforts to get Medford into the league. The circuit, third highest in pro fessional baseball, is made up mostly of young players who have had two or three years' ex perience in pro ball. Each team is allowed a quota of veteran players for a team nucleus. Local baseball enthusiasts be lieve that the valley has grown in population sufficiently since Medford was in the Class D Far West league that return of pro fessional ball here, in a higher classification will be supported. s Saw Shop MACHINE SHARPENING Chain, Circle and Hand Saws Lawn Mowers and.
