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.

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."

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.
