o o Rademacher Has Flexible Plan For Scuffle With Patterson By HAL WOOD Seattle, Wash. Tfi Chal lenger Pete Rademacher, a lean 210-pounds of fighting farmer, said today he had laid "flexible" plans for his 15-round heavy weight championship bout with Floyd Patterson Thursday night. By "flexible" he said he meant he would wait and see how Patterson wanted the bout to go cautiously or a slugging match. "I have no definite pre-con-ceived plan of battle," said the osoft-spoken ex-Army lieuten ant. "The only time I tried that in the amateur ranks, I got lick ed." But exuding confidence from every pore, the former Washing ton State football player and current Olympic heavyweight boxing champion, wasn't a bit worried about what lay ahead. "As a matter of fact, we are not looking past this bout in any way," he pointed out, "but we already have many offers for the future." Both the Patterson and Rade macher camps set light calisthen ics and long walks as the order of the day as they awaited the weighing-in ceremonies Thurs day at noon (PST). Rademacher said he expected to come in at "around 210" pounds. Patterson, while signing dor- ens of autographs fof boys from a nearby school visiting his training set-up, said he figured he was in just as good condition now as he was for the Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson battle last month. Robinson Calls Off Fight With Basilio But Leaves Loophole a New York (in Sugar Ray Robinson formally announced today that he is withdrawing from next month's million dol lar fight with Carmen Basilio, and the New York state athletic commission scheduled a special meeting Monday to consider the situation. Chairman Julius Helfand of the commission said Robinson had telephoned his withdrawal this morning. The middleweight champion announced to the press Tuesday night that he was pulling out of the title fight be cause of a dispute with pro moter Jim Norris over theater television. Helfand, after being notified by Robinson, said: "I have sent out notices for all parties con cerned to be at Monday's meet ing." He did not elaborate. In his announcement Tues- Ems Tussle Wenafchee Eugene's Emeralds, fresh off a 17- pasting of Salem Tuesday, run head - on into Northwest league-leading Wenatchee to night in the opener of an import ant, three-game series. Wenatchee, shut out 7-0 by Yakima, still holds a four-game margin over the second place Emeralds with just this and one more series remaining with the runner-up. Elsewhere, Lewiston climbed all over Tri-City In a double-header, 7-4 and 7-3. A quartet of Emerald hitters accounted for 12 of 19 hits against the out-gunned Senators. Don Frailey had four singles in four trips, scoring two tallies; Zeke King had three for five, including two triples, and knocked in three runs; Pete Mi kacich drove in four runs on two singles and a double, and Bob Gauthter managed four RBIs on a homer and a single in five times up. sporjyJ If l.:. 4 r j" V s- vi THIS FRIDAY IS DAY f (SEE THIS NEWSPAPER) day, Robinson left a loophole lor the bout to go on as origin ally scheduled at Yankee Sta dium Sept. 23. "Meanwhile, my attorney. Martin Machat, will start legal proceedings against Norris and his International Boxing club for breach of contract," the mid dleweight champion said. Admittedly surprised, Norris stated, "The fight's still on as far as we're concerned, and there will be no change in the theater- television arrangements. Equally confident that the fight would be staged, welter weight champion Basilio contin ued training at Alexandria Bay, N.Y., for his attempt to wrest the middleweight crown from Robinson. Basilio commented, however, "if Robinson runs out on this fight, I'll know he's afraid of me. He looked petri fied at the signing, anyway." The dispute is about who shall handle the theater-TV. Norris has signed a contract with Theater Network Television, Inc. the closed-circuit organization that presented 15 previous IBC fights, starting in June, 1951. Robinson insists that the Tele prompter Corp., which handles much industrial and convention closed-circuit work, be given the fight because it had guaranteed a minimum of 400,000 theater seats, which would translate into about $250,000 for Robinson's end. That's 150,000 more seats than TNT could guarantee, Robinson said. Sugar Ray. claims that Norris signed the contract with TNT "without my permission" and thereby broke the signed agree ment that the theater-TV rights would not be sold "without my written consent."

Wednesday, August 21, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRII8INE THIRTEEN T Slow Motion Helps Keegan In No-Hitter By GENE BLUDEAU Chicago W Bob Keegan of the Chicago White Sox said today that a new "slow motion" windup helped him hurl the season's first no-hitter. Legion Regional Tourney Begins Portland (lit American Le gion' Junior baseball champions from Oregon, Washington, Mon tana, Idaho and Alaska opened a double-elemination tournament here today for the regional championship. Play will continue through Saturday and possibly Sunday. Opening round games send Anchorage, Alaska, against Se attle at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Lew iston, Idaho, against Billings, Mont., at 6:30 p.m. and Portland against the Anchorage-Seattle winner at 8:30 p.m. The 36-year-old right - hander, once considered washed up be cause of arm trouble, tried out his new delivery Tuesday night for the first time as he blanked the Washington Senators, 6-0, walking two batters and strik ing out only one. In demonstrating his new windup, Keegan said it is simil ar to a golfer taking a slower backswing. "In other words, instead of pulling my arm back in a hurry in the preliminary motion, I do it slowly," he said. Keegan said this gives him more control and helps to keep him from tiring. Confident by Fourth Keegan said he was "confi dent" that his new style was working by the fourth inning. "I could tell then that the Senators didn't have any hits in them," he said. Keegan said that when he faced Pete Runnels, lead - off batter in ' the eighth, he was "sure" of a no-hitter. "My new windup took tha batters by surprise. I'm sure the Senators weren't prepared for it," he said. Keegan said he served up mostly fast balls "as always" and gave a lot of credit to catch er Sherm Lollar for calling the shots.
