Toronto 0 Columbus 2, Buffalo 0 Richmond 5-2, Rochester 3-4 Folley Batters HacSemacher; Wants Championship Fight BY JACK CUDDY Los Angeles (UPD Zora Folley declared today "I de mand a shot at the heavy weight title" for having knocked out Pete Rademacher more quickly and easily than champion Floyd Patterson did it. Rademacher, who w as floored four times and smear ed with blood for a fourth round knockout before 7,100 fans at the Olympic Auditor ium Friday night, boosted Folley's title demands by say ing, "He hits harder than Pat terson and is just as fast." . Patterson had to get off the deck once in his title defense against Rademacher at Seattle last Aug. 22 and then floored him seven times in scoring a 6th round kayo. Promoter Cal Eaton, who lost more than $5,000 on Fri d a y night's disappointing $35,022 gate and $25,000 tele vision fee, announced he was renewing his offer for a $250,000 guarantee for the winner of the Aug. 18 title fight here between Patterson and Roy Harris to defend against Folley. Can't Rush Us Patterson's manager C u s D'Amato who was at ring side Friday night said, "Fol ley didn't want to challenge last year when we wanted him. He can't rash us with his demands now." Zora, 27, who weighed 200 pounds to Rademacher's 198, extended his unbeaten string to 21 bouts- He already was recognized as co-holder of the No. 1 contender's ranking with Eddie Machen. Rademacher, of Columbus, Ga., 'received a guarantee of $35,000 and - $2,500 expense money for Friday night's bat tering in his ' second profes sional fight. Despite his pathetically poor showing, the 29-year-old 1956 Olympic champion as sured reporters he planned to continue fighting and would notify the press "by letter" when he made his next match. Folley gained much in pres tige, but he probably will wind up with nothing but $1,000 in expense money. Legion Baseball Barbecue Today Medford American Legion Post 15's picnic for its junior baseball nine and its merchant sponsors will be today at Tou Velle State park; The barbecue event will be 2 p.m. Clyde Fichtner, Med ford police captain, will be special speaker.

Yanks Boost Lead, Tigers, Chisox Win By United Press International The New York Yankees, bidding to clinch the Amer ican league Pennant on the earliest date in major league history, ballooned their lead to 15Ji games when they crushed the Cleveland Indians 8-3, yesterday. It was the Yankees' fifth straight victory in the West and their seventh in a row. They hold the current rec ord for the earliest pennant clinching ever. The 1941 Yanks wrapped up the pen nant on Sept. 4 that year, and the way the present Yanks are going, they have a chance to clinch it earlier. Duke Maas was credited with his first victory since joining the Yankees on June 15 although he didn't finish. Bobby Shantz and Art Dit mar mopped up. The Yankees went ahead to stay with two runs in the third inning, Bill Skowron driving them both in with a single off loser Hal Woode shick. New York broke the game apart with four runs in the ninth on five singles and a walk against relievers Don Mossi and Morrie Mar tin. Al Kaline drove in three runs with a homer, double and a single to help Detroit snap a five-game losing streak with a 9-1 win over Washing ton. Rookie Herb Moford of the Tigers scattered six hits to notch his first victory against three defeats. Rookie John Romonosky, who yielded De troit's first four runs, was charged with the loss. The Chicago White Sox hung the first defeat of the season on Ike Delock as they licked the Boston Red Sox, 11-6. Delock, who had a 10-4 rec ord going into the game, left it in the fifth inning when the White Sox rallied for five runs to go ahead, 8-1. Sherm Lollar led Chicago's 15-hit at tack with a homq run, a dou ble and a single. Ray Moore registered his sixth victory although he bowed out in the sixth when Boston stormed back with five runs. Jim Rivera also homered for the White Sox. Pitcher Jack Harshman's homer was the deciding fac tor as the Baltimore Orioles whipped the Kansas City Ath letics for the seventh straight time, 4-3, in the only A.L. night game. Billy Loes and Billy O'Dell both relieved to protect Harshman's eighth win when the Athletics rallied for one run in the ninth. 1000 Accounts Receivable Statements finished before hinek!
