But in the meantime, he was feeling no pain as far as getting more bouts for his stoic Arizona charge was concerned. Three Sites Mentioned Three promoters were in line to get a Folley-Rade-macher match for either the Pacific Northwest, Louisville or Los Angeles. The winner presumably will get a shot at Floyd Patterson's title. Rademacher is the Olympic Games hero who turned -pro last year and had Floyd Pat terson down before the heavy weight king took him out in the sixth round. While Machen appeared to be slipping from his spot as the number one contender, second-ranked Folley had Se attle promoter Inigio Lucchesi trying to line him up for a bout with Rademacher. Lucchesi said on Thursday that he had offered Rade macher $20,000 or 30 per cent of the gate to meet the silent man from Chandler, Ariz. The pair have met as ama teurs. Folley defeated the balding Olympian eight years ago in Seattle and Rade macher reversed the decision at Boston in 1953. Seattle Bout Sought George Chemeres, Rade macher's trainer for the Pat terson fight said in Seattle that George Parnassus want ed to make the match for his Olympic Auditorium. Chemeres also identified Bill King, a Louisville pro moter, as offering $15,000 or 25 per cent of the gate to Rademacher if he would meet Folley there. Swift, hot under the collar over the draw decision, also had support from about 80 per cent of the newsmen cov ering the fight. Most of the reporters thought that Folley had won and generally agreed that the fight was terrible. Swift hailed referee Frank ie Carter, who voted for Ma chen, as a "fine citizen" but added "he sure blundered Wednesday night." Phil Hitchcock Criticizes Norblad Milwaukie, Ore. HP) Phil Hitchcock, who is opposing Rep. Walter Norblad for the Republican nomination for Congress from the first dis trict, criticized his opponent Thursday for failure to vote on the federal aid highway bill shortly before the con gressional Easter recess. Hitchcock said it was "an other evidence of the fact that we have a do-nothing ab sentee congressman in Wash ington. Hitchcock also urged strong er etlorts by the Oregon con gressional delegation to pro mote forest access roads. U.P. MANAGER DIES Houston, Tex. IIP) Funeral services will be held today m Bellaire.

(DO NOT MAID must be deposited af dealers I I SPORTS 1 Cus, Eddie Encounter Proposed By HAL WOOD San Francisco Pr If you ask me (nobody did) the best fight that could be lined up right now would be Eddie Ma chen vs. Gus D'Amato, Floyd Patterson's manager. It could be for the championship of the International Boxing club D'Amato's pet peeve. - On the basis of what Ma chen displayed in his ill-fated bout with Zora Folley Wednesday night, Cus would be at least an 11-10 favorite. True, Cus possibly is over the age limit, but if the box ing fathers would let him in the ring (they put Pete Rade macher in there with flailing Floyd, didn't they?) the chances are that D'Amato would talk uneager Eddie right out of tossing a punch. As you television viewers may have noticed, there was more apologizing in the Folley-Machen bout by the two would - be gladiators than when the Japanese envoys visited the White House while Pearl Harbor was being bombed. Alphonse and Gaston Not that any bombs were being tossed in the ring. It was strictly a patty-cake party. An Alphonse and Gas ton act: "If you don't hit me, I won't hurt you." These two boys looked as though they had been taking lessons from Madam Lazonga. Except once when they got out of step and Folley fell to his knees. And when Machen tried to help him up, he acci dentally socked poor Zora in the kisser. Of course, if Machen was tightening D'Amato, there would be no such problem. Cus could promise Eddie that, if he took it easy, he wouldn't have to fight Patterson at all to gain the world's champion ship. Floyd would retire and hand the crown to Eddie on a silver platter. This Folley may be a knock out artist in some quarters, but the strongest punch he threw- this time was a good left jab. And that was only through the first four rounds. After that he saved it for pos sible use at a Dixieland jam boree, where the dancing is much more strenuous than the conga at the Cow Palace. Promoters Optimistic But the promoters know a good thing when they see one. These guys think that Machen and Folley were so inept in their battle for a crack at the world's championship that they would have to be better the next time out. All they have to do now is get the fans to swallow that one. So Patterson gets an offer of $250,000 to defend his crown against Machen who, according to San Francisco promoters, still is the "logical contender." And Folley tops that by being offered fights in Los Angeles, Seattle and Louis ville, Ky. all with the same guy: Pete Rademacher. But the f-jht filberts must like it. They paid out nearly $100,000 to see that waltz marathon the other night. Let's see now: What was it Barnum said? Length of the U.S.-Mexi-can boundary is 2,103 miles.

Inflation Becoming Problem To Common Man in Indonesia Editor'! note: The worsening economic situation of the Indone sian man-in-the-street is perhaps to President Sukarno's government harder to take than the revolt in Sumatra. The following dispatch analyses the situation. By ARNOLD DIBBLE United Press Correspondent Jakarta (IP) Times are tough for Mohammad, an ele mentary school teacher, and his family of four. Mohammad makes 1,200 rupiahs a month which is worth $110 on the black mar ket. But the rate to the dol lar makes little difference to Mohammad. It's what the ru piah will buy that counts and that's where things are really beginning to bind. As with most West Ja venese, the staple of Moham mad and his family is rice. It takes about four pounds of rice to feed them each day Sen. Gill Plugs Slate Sales Tax Salem (IP) State Sen. Warren Gill brought his cam paign for the Republican nomination for governor here Thursday and came out strongly for a sales tax to off set property taxes. The state senator from Leb anon said present property taxes have become "virtual confiscation." Gill told the Salem Rotary Club that as far as he knew he was the only candidate to endorse a sales tax. But he claimed that ether candidates were "edging" to ward the sales tax point of view. Aside from the sales tax, Gill said there were only two other sources of revenue in come and property taxes. He said each candidate should be pinned down as to where they would get additional money for state services wanted by the people. 2 For -lfST Only WHILE WE GOHT HUE One-Halt Block Free Parking!

SP 2-6969 and the cheapest he can get that amount of rice for is 13 rupiahs, about a third of his daily earnings. Last year he could get it for half that much. Inflation a Problem Inflation in Mohammad's country rose at a slow rate until late last year when it spurted sharply. Then came the anti-Dutch campaign, fol lowed by the revolt in Su matra. With the anti-Dutch moves came the takeover of the vast Dutch shipping company K.P.M., which virtually par alyzed all inter-island ship ping. In the vast, 3,000-mile semi circle of islands, Java acts like the nozzle of a hose with streams of supplies, shooting off to Sumatra to the north west, Borneo to the north, the Celebes and the Halmahera "Spice Islands" to the north east and the Moluccas to the east. For manufactured goods and food staples, the outer islands looked to Java. Most of the importing was done there and Java, traditionally an island of traders, collected on export and import duties. Suddenly, it all came to a stop. Barter Replaces Currency Barter trade has been re placing currency operations and has spread so widely that of 97 ports which previously paid export and import duties to the central government, only 15 are now operating. Buying power has all but dried up. Unemployment is at a dangerous point, but as in most Asian countries, re liable figures are hard to get. There is a good deal of hoard ing, more of money than of goods. "Money is easier to run with," one economist ex plained.
