will send a four-man commit
tee, headed by League Presi

study the possibility of expan

fans in two games with the
Minneapolis Lakers in San
Francisco and Seattle. Podol
off says he has received 18
franchise applications from
Los Angeles groups and 14
from San Francisco combines.
In addition to Podoloff, the
expansion committee includes
club-owners Ned Irish of the
New York Knickerbockers,
Bud Kerner of the St. Louis

Lakers. The formation of the
committee was voted by the
league's clubowners in Detroit
last week.

Bout Talked
New York - (CPD - Promoter
Bill Rosensohn declared stout
ly today, "I expect Floyd
Patterson and Ingemar Jo
hansson to sign contracts
Thursday for a June title
fight," despite the following
developments:
-Promoter Harry Levene
unexpectedly popped off in
London and announced that
Patterson will defend his
world heavyweight title
against ex-British Empire
champion Brian London of
England somewhere in the
United States, probably in
April.
-Cus D'Amato, Patterson's
manager, refused to confirm
or deny Levene's London an
nouncement, saying merely,
"I'm surprised that Levene
would make public any com
munications between him and
myself."
Suit Fight
-Contender Eddie Machen
of Redding, Calif., has filed
suit in a New York federal
court to restrain top contend
er Johansson of Sweden from
fighting Patterson or anyone
else before Johansson has a
return bout with Machen.
-Ten cities are now bid
ding for the Patterson-Johansson
fight, including Minne
apolis, Philadelphia two
groups, Indianapolis, Los An
geles, New York, Colorado
Springs, Colo., and four
others whose names Rosen
sohn will reveal "when they
put their invitations in
writing."
All parties directly con
cerned with the Patterson
Johansson classic, and their
attorneys, went into a huddle
today for what they hoped
would be a final review of the
contracts.
Miracle Shot
Aids St. Louis
United Press International
It took a "miracle shot" by
Jack McMahon that led to a
desperate overtime victory in
one of the season's most dra
matic games, but the St. Louis
Hawks are at last ahead in
their duel with the New York
Knickerbockers.
McMahon's 40-foot set shot
exactly at the final buzzer
enabled the Hawks to tie the
Knicks, 100-100, in regulation
time at Madison Square Gar
den Tuesday night and then
Bob Pettit's driving layup
with 22 seconds left produced
a 112-111 win for the Hawks
in overtime.
Royals Win
In the first game of the
Garden twin bill, which drew
14,287 fans, the Cincinnati
Royals defeated the Philadel
phia Warriors, 100-92. In the
only other National Basketball
association game played Tues
day night, the Syracuse Na
tionals handed the Detroit
Pistons their eighth straight
defeat, 121-107, at Detroit.
Although the Hawks are
making a runaway of the
Western Division race, they
had only an even 3-3 record
against the Knicks in their
season series before Tuesday
night's dramatic battle.
