House Sports
Bill Threatened by Time
Washington (UPD Time
was running out on the House-
approved sports bill today
.Chairman Estes Kefauver
(D-Tenn.) of the Senate anti
monopoly subcommittee
scheduled a meeting to decide
what action to take on it in
the wake of hearings which
ended Thursday.
There was a chance the sub
committee would decide to
blow the whistle on the drive
to give anti trust immunity to
team sports. Kefauver said
bluntly, "I am not satisfied
with the house-passed bill."
Disastisfied '
The dissatisfaction of other
members of the subcommittee
is well known. Sen. Joseph C.
O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.) has call
ed it a "blank check ... an
owner's bill," and Sen. John
A. L-arrou (iuoio.; nas criti
cized some of its features.
But the major threat to the
bill, and its exemption for
many phases of team sports
from the anti-trust laws, was
the clock the congressional
adjournment pitch which was
beginning to run to fever.

perhaps secure passage of a

Proper Offer
Would Attract
Leo Durocher
By JIM BUCKNER
Los Angeles (UPD Dodger
owner Walter O'Malley and
former Giant manager Leo
Durocher took stock separate
ly of the Los Angeles
baseball dilemma, and agreed
the loss of catcher Roy Campa.
nella was the No. 1 reason for
the club's poor showing.
But neither O'Malley nor
Durocher had anything to say
about the possibility of Leo
replacing Walt Alston as man
ager of the Dodgers, this sea
son or next.
In fact, O'Malley again
praised the soft-spoken Alston
as one of "the soundest man
agers in baseball." He also de
clared that "if the blame for
this losing streak belongs any.
where, it's in the front office."
He said the club had deliber
ately stayed away from the
major league trading market
while the West Coast shift was
in progress.
Durocher, in. a separate in
terview, let it be known that
he "might be interested" in
returning to baseball as a
manager, if an acceptable of
fer were made offering him
primarily stock rather than
salary.
"It would be foolish of me
to say no," responded Du
rocher, who piloted the Dodg
ers to a 1941 pennant before
moving to the Giants, when
asked if he was interested in
geting back into baseball as
a field manager.

Roy Harris Finds Getting
Ready for Patterson Easy
Compared to
(This Is the last of three
dispatches in which Roy
Harris, contender for the
heavyweight boxing cham
pionship, tells his own
story.)
By ROY HARRIS
(Written Expressly for United
Press International)
Cut 'N Shoot, Tex. IPD
Around Cut 'N Shoot, folks
have always said I was the
"quiet one" of the Harris fam
ily.
My dad, Big Henry, and
my uncles and my older broth
er, Tobe, had a big reputa
tion for being - rough and
ready guys. I suppose it was
a good thing I ..was pretty
handy with my fists, too, or I
might have had to put up with
a lot of torment about doing
well in school.
People must really have
been surprised when Roy
Harris decided to go to col
lege. I went to Sam Houston
State at Huntsville, about 40
miles away. When I finished,
I came back to Cut 'N Shoot
and got 'a job teaching in the
grade school.
I taught the usual fourth
and fifth grade subjects
reading, writing, arithmetic,
spelling, language and geogra
phy. I wouldn't say you had
to be a heavyweight boxer to
make these Cut 'N Shoot kids
toe the line, but it helped.
A couple of other things
besides college have helped
shape my life. For one, I am
married to a Cut 'N Shoot
girl, Jean Groce, and we live
in a little white modern cot
tage just down the road from
my folks. Jean's a Seventh
Day Adventist, and I go to
church with her and teach a
class in the Bible school.
Commissioned Officer
Also, at college I was in
the ROTC and was commis
sioned a lieutenant in the field
artillery. I've been on active
duty at Camp Polk, La., and
Fort Sill, Okla.
But whatever else, happen
ed to me, I've always wanted
to be a fighter. They've got
83 amateur bouts in the rec
ord books for me, and I was a
state Golden Gloves cham
pion four times. I don't know
how many other bootleg
fights I had, and Tobe fig
ures he and I must have
fought 10,000 rounds in our
homemade ring.
Even when I was in high
school, I used to jog to" and
from home, about three miles
each way, while the other
kids rode the bus. When I
went to college, I'd do road-
work in the morning; drive
the 40 miles to Huntsville,
then drive back and work out
in the afternoon. Sometimes,
I'd go to Houston, about 70
miles from Huntsville, to find
sparring partners.
22 Straight Victories
I must have averaged 150
miles of driving a day in ad
dition to classes, studying and
workouts. So now just getting
ready for my big fight with
Floyd Patterson seems easy
by comparison.
I turned pro in 1955 and
went through 22 fights with
out getting beat. All of them
were in Texas, and Willie Pas
trano and I set a record for
the state when we drew near
ly 10,000 people at Houston.
The only time I was
knocked down in a pro fight
was against Bob Baker. May
be I was a little too respect
ful of him at the start because
he had been in the top ten
rankings and outweighed me
by 28 pounds. Anyway, he
caught me on the chin in the
fourth round, and down I
went. Lots of folks said I
went down so hard they
didn't even think I'd twitch,
let alone get up.
You never see the punch
that knocks you down, they
say. But my head cleared
right away, and while I was
The "horns" of the huge

They are flexible.

waiting for the" count I tried
to figure what it was. I de
cided it must have been a
right, and I knew if that was
his best shot I wouldn't have
to respect him so much any
more.
I got up and won the fight
on points.
Met Tough Foes
Altogether, I've met some
pretty tough fellows, tougher
maybe than Floyd Patterson
has fought, if you look at his
record. I've read where I'm
an "awkward" fighter. Well,
I got my early training from
my dad and from Glen Buf
falo, the football coach in
junior high school.
They taught me what I
guess you'd call country-style
fighting. Since Lou Viscusi
became my .manager, I've
been trained by Bill Gore, a
smart old veteran, and I
might have a lot of surprises
for Floyd when we get to
gether Aug. 18 in Los An
geles. ' m
Folks ask me what I'd Ifke
to do if I win the champion
ship. To tell the' truth, I
haven't rightly thought mUch
about it. I know it would
mean money and opportun
ities, and it is something Jean
and I will have to work out.
But here in the Big Thicket,
we learn only to take one
thing at a time. Right now,
all my concentration is on
winning that title. After I do,
there'll be time enough to de
cide what to do with it.
Patterson
Eager for
Harris Bout
World's heavyweight champion
Floyd Patterson is looking for
ward to his title defense against
fabulous Roy Harris from Cut
'N' Shoot, Tex., as a favorable
turning point in his ring career.
In the following dispatch, the
champion explains why.
By FLOYD PATTERSON
Heavyweight Boxing Champion
Los Angeles (UPD I don't
think I've ever been as eager
for a fight as I am for the one
coming up with Roy Harris.
When I defend my title
against Harris on Aug. 18 at
Wrigley Field, It will be just
four days short of a year since
my last fight with Pete Rade
macher. I've been in training most
of the time since then, and it
is going to feel just fine to be
throwing punches for real
against an opponent who
should be the toughest I've
met so far.
More important, I've , got
some things to prove. I'm fed
up with all the criticism of
myself and my manager, Cus
d'Amato, because I don't fight
as often as some people think
I should.
Cus and I have been a team
for a long time ever since I
first started working out in
his gym in New York when I
was 14. He helped me win an
Olympic championship and
the world heavyweight title.
And folks overlook the fact
that he's made a lot of money
for me about all I could
keep anyway after taxes.
Young Yet
After all, I fought twice
last year, and I hope to fight
twice this year. That's all
Rocky Marciano did, and it is
oftener . than a lot of past
champions defended their
titles. In fact, do you realize
JackTDempsey only defended
his title six times in more
than seven years he was
champion?
I realize that I need fights
and more fights to prove that
I'm a real chamipon. But as
Cus keeps telling me, I'm
young yet only 23. And I
can't agree with those who
make light of the challengers
I've met so far.
But right now, my big con
cern is Harris. I haven't been
idle, although I haven't been
fighting for the record these
past 12 months. I think I'm an
improved fighter, and I think
a strong, clever opponent like
Harris is just what I need to
prove it.
