D'AMATO SURPRISES
Boycotts TV,
Refuses Money
For Patterson
By JACK CUDDY
United Pr.u Sport Writer
New York W Manager
Cus D'Amato i defiance of pow
er and tradition in the fight
game was attracting almost as
much attention today as tUe
fight of his heavyweight, Floycl
Patterson.
D'Amato is in the midst of
four moves that may make him
top man In the world of boxing.
They are:
Thursday he sends young
Patterson back to camp at
Greenwood Lake, N.Y., to sharp
en for the first "open champ
ionship" in ring history a
defense of his world profession
al title against the world am
ateur champion, Pete Rademach
er, at Seattle, Wash., Aug. 22.
He and Patterson have
waived the $175,000 guarantee
for Monday night's knockout de
fense against Tommy (Hurri
cane) Jackson in order to make
certain that the D'Amato- ap
pointed promoter, Emil Lence,
suffers no loss from the Polo
Grounds' disappointing gate and
stays in business.
Boycotts Horn TV
He has withdrawn Patter
aon from home fight-television
on any network until such time
as one of the major TV corpor
ations shall contract with an
independent promoter, like
Lence, for a weekly TV-fight
scries, in opposition to the In
ternational Boxing club's TV
fight supremacy.
Looking beyond the Rade-
macher fight, D'Amato is plan
ning another Patterson defense
under Lence promotion at New
York in October or November
which he will try to force into
Madison Square Garden or, oth
erwise, stage at the big Kings-
bridge armory in the Bronx
"I want to break the fight
game wide open" said the stocky
gray-haired manager today: I II
have no truck with monopolies
or combines or cliques. I want
to help independent promoters
get back on their feet and make
' it possible for fighters, in all
stages of development, to get
what they're worth. And,
luckily, I've got a world heavy
weight champion who shares my
ideals."
Floyd Loses $51,140
In waiving the $175,000 guar
antee for last Monday's fight,
D'Amato flabbergasted manag
ers throughout fistiana. "Patter
ion accepted 40 per cent of all
net receipts and took a purse
of $123,859 which was $51,140
less than the guarantee.
Meanwhile, Jackson, the bad
ly battered challenger, remained
in the Meadowbrook hospital in
suburban East Meadow, recov
ering from a kidney bruise that
caused blood in his bladder
kidney tract.
Five speclaHsta made a series
of tests, including X-rays, and
recommended he remain in the
hospital several days for obser
vation. Their thorough examin
ations disclosed no other serious
injuries.
Qualifying
On Today
Chicago IW Second and
final qualifying rounds for men
professionals in the All American
Golf Tourney were slated for
today at Tarn O'Shanter Country
Club.
The second wave of pros to
tee off onto Tarn's slopes repre
sented some 275 entrants in the
tourney fighting for one of the
72 qualifying spots.
Paul Harney of Bolton, Mass.,
led the first day qualifying
round with a blazing six-under-par
66. Harney, a graduate of
Holy Cross, had cut his six
strokes under par by the end of
the 10th hole in Tuesday's 18
hole competition and maintained
a red-hot pace the rest of the
way.
Harney was followed by Art
Blesseling of Grossinger,. N.Y.,
a Kansas City Open champ who
fired a 68. Bert Weaver of Beau
mont, Tex., a first year pro,
walked in third with a 69.
