Million Dollar Gate Back'
The Patterson-Johansson bout 'for the world's
heavyweight boxing title, no matter what happens
in the ring next Thursday, already is an out-sized
gem with many irregular facets. The notably reti
cent champion, Floyd Patterson, has had three
public fights (his manager speaks mysteriously
about other secret bouts with top heavyweights)
since he defeated middle-aged Archie Moore to
gain the division crown in the fag end of 1956.
One was a win and a fiascosover an amateur;
two were unimpressive victories over inept op
ponents. - .
For that matter, Patterson's opponent, Inge
mar Johansson of Sweden, undefeated as a pro
fessional, champion of Europe, was excused from
the Olympic finals at Helsinki in 1952 for "not
trying." Today, however." he is grimly determined.
He said recently: "The

J V 1 " 1
lerson may nave to cast on nis manue oi caution
are the economics of the bout. By grace of a kind
of electronic revolution, the bout will enjoy a
virtually built-in million-dollar gate. . .'....
TO BEGIN with, New York real estate interests,
tired of seeing free-spending heavyweight
fight crowds lured to such out-of-the-way stations
to their eyes as Seattle ' and Indianapolis,
guaranteed a $600,000 box office. Then promoter
Bill Rosensohn sold ancillary rights to televi
sion, motion pictures, and radio to TelePromp
Ter Corporation, of which he is a former vice
president, for. $300,000. . . ; -
TelePrompTer turned around and sold the
radio rights for $100,000. Network time charges
(ABC) and other costs come out of this. Percent
ages of radio and movie revenues go back, to the
promoter. The sponsors of the radio broadcast,
incidentally, are the producer and distributor of
a motion-picture, "The Horse Soldiers," which
will be plugged between rounds. It is perhaps sig
nificant that a bid of $450,000 for the ancillary
rights from a TelePrompTer competitor either
wasn't received in time, or was ignored, depend
ing on whose story you believe.
HTHE fight won't be seen on home television
screens, but only in theatres and auditoriums
outside the New York area by means of closed
circuit TV transmission. TelePrompTer expects
to line up about 200 locations with seats for
525,000
The second bout between Sugar Rav Robinson
and Carmen Basilio, in March, 1958, was seen on
closed-circuit TV in 174 theatres and arenas by
about 400,000 fight fans. The take from TV alone
was $1,400,000, of which' $339,000 went to the
fight promoters. Even when Patterson fought the
unheralded Roy Harris of Cut and Shoot, Texas,
the total gate was over $1 million, with $763,437
coming num ciosea-circuit television.
What about Patterson and Johansson?, Well,
the champion is guaranteed $300,000, the chal
lenger $100,000. Other imponderables could build
up Patterson's take; for example, if the fight is
close, or if Johansson should win, the motion
pictures will go big in Europe.
A final economic note. If you belong to the
Diners' Club you can have your tickets reserved

Whaling Conference
Amid mutterings of revolt from its most active
members, the International Whaling Commission
is meeting in London this week to carry, out its
annual task of setting a limit on the catch in the
Antarctic. Norway, Japan and The Netherlands
have already said they will withdraw from the
1930 whaling pact unless the other parties agree
to substitute a system of national quotas for the
present overall ceiling. 1
Nearly all whaling in the Antarctic is done
bv fleets of catchers serving huge, efficient,
phenomenally expensive factory ships. Norway,
Japan and The Netherlands among them operate
15 of the 19 factory ships active in the Antarctic
last season. The British operate three, the Rus
sians one. - '
THE other 12 parties to the pact Australia,
1 Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland,
Mexico, New Zealand, Panama, - Sweden, South
Africa, the U. S. don't work the Antarctic at
all. In fact, Mexico and Panama don't even have
a whaling industry.; And there's the rub.
The U. S., for example, is represented on the
commission by Dr. Remington Kellogg of the
Smithsonian Institution. His interest is scientific
rather than commercial. -The U. S. and most of
thejther relatively inactive nations are concerned
grimarily with conservation of the fast-dwindling
lue whale population.
Under the existing set-up, the annual catch
is limited to 15,000 blue whale units. A unit con
sists of one blue or two finbacks or 2.5 hump
backs or sixr Sei whales. In the rush to get as
large a share"as possible of the overall limit, the
catchers often are forced to give up on the prized
but elusive blue. With a fixed quota to kill, they
could afford to give chase. E.R.R.

Communications
Response to Article ,
To the Editor: This letter is
a response to the article by
Frank Jenkins .in The Days
News, June 16, in which he
states .that Matthew 25 is a
firm endorsement of the pro
fit principal and conservation.
I have no argument what
soever with the profit princi
pal on which free enterprise is
based. The evil lies in exces
sive profit accumulated at the
expense of the right and privi
leges of your fellow man.
I heartily agree conserva
tion is good and ought to be
practiced. But the parable ot
the wise and foolish virgins
was written as are all scrip
tures to make us wise unto
salvation by counseling us to
hnv our oil from Christ Jesus.
Now the oil here referred to
that keeps the lights or lamps
of a Christian burning is thirst
in their hearts. This parable
cautions us to be ready for tne
second coming of our Lord
Jesus to take His people with
Him to glory of Heaven.
This narable as well as the
parable of the talent admon
ishes us to use those (talents)
i.e. abilities which God has
oilAn no nnt fnr ourselves but
for others and for Christ. Ves,
God gives talents of silver and
sola -to his neonle and all peo
ple, these also to be used for
his glory, for instance our
mouths. With them we bless
God and curse our fellow men:
this ought not to be so.
Reading further in Matthew
25. we see that it is the feed
ing the hungry, giving drink
to the thirsty, comfort to Jhe
sick and suffering and in pri
son, and welcome to tne
stranger.
Are strangers welcome in
our community if they have
no talents to make our coffers
swell and if their skins are
black?
No. mv friend. Matthew 25
means far more than profit
and conservation. For what
shall it profit a man if he gain
the whole world and lose his
own soul.
When He shall come with
trumpet sound may we in Him
then be found clothed in His
righteousness to alone fault
ness stand before the throne;
on Christ the solid rock I
stand. All other ground is
sinking, Lord,

Oregonian in Pendleton is
confused.
I quote from the news item,
The workers (of the Tacoma-
Pierce County Humane So
ciety) recently affiliated with
the Teamsters Union, want a
$30 monthly wage boost."
I never knew before that
the Teamsters Union was in
terested in catching dogs. Now
I wonder whose idea it was
to become "unaffiliated"? Did
the dog "catchers get confused
about what to catch? Did the
Teamsters Union get hold of
something that would bite?

called "meat" for a news

TOO STARTLED
To the Editor: In answer to
Mr. F. J. Clifford's inquiry of
June 19 Tribune concerning
whether I killed the big bull-
snake,. I will say I was just
too startled as the big reptile
was in making (his or her)
getaway. I probably watched
the meandering and skillful
speedy pace of this giant ser
pent looking for shelter for
as much as 20 to 30 minutes
before it found a .varmint
hole big enough to crawl into,
. As I mentioned in previous
communication, after telling
a friend then shortly after
wards of my thrilling exper
ience, he told me that a big
snake answering the same de
scription had been seen in the
Birdseye ranch pasture about
one mile east some years be
fore 1917. No, I had no anxi
ety to capture or kill the vi
per. As I was no authority
on reptiles of any specie, it
could very well have been a
boa constrictor, not a gargan
tuan king.

In the Day's News
, By FRANK JENKINS
The shooting incident in the
Sea of Japan the other day-
in which a communist fighter
plane fired deliberately and
destructively at an American
Navy patrol plane -brings
Russia back sharply into focus
in our thinking. ,
What is Russia up to?
IF WE knew that, we'd be in
a lot better position to ap
praise the possibilities of war
and peace in the relatively im
mediate future. ..
: But we don't know. And
Russia isn't, going to tell us.
Nor is she going to give us any
inkling of her intentions if she
can help it.
J Let's turn to other aspects
of the Russian .situation.
For example: ;
What do the common, ordi
nary Russians think of us as
PEOPLE? How do they re
gard us? As ENEMIES, to be
hated?
MOST thoughtful visitors to
Russia bring' back the
same story. It is an INTER
ESTING story. Possibly a sig
nificant story.
Roughly, it is this:
The Russians, meaning the
commo, everyday run of
Russians, DON'T hate us.
They are intensely interested
in us. They want to know how
we live. What we have in our
houses. What we do for a liv
ing. What kind of houses we
live in. What we do for re
laxation. And so on.
InN other words, they are
interested in us in just about
the same way we are inter
ested in them.
ARE they friendly?
Or - suspicious and
friendly?
un-
Nearly all thoughtful trav
elers who get an opportunity
to talk to Russians in their
homes, on their home- town
streets, at their jobs-ANY-
HERE away from communist
officials or Russians of any
type who might carry tales to
communist officials, report
that the Russian people are
FRIENDLY. '
That is to say: Among the
Russian people, there is no
hatred of Americans AS
AMERICANS. On the other
hand, there is interest and
friendly curiosity. That story
is brought back by so many
American travelers that we
have to accept it as reason
ably true. -).
THAT brings up a fact that
is very interesting indeed.
In World War I, as veter
ans of that conflict will un
doubtedly confirm, there was
little hatred among common,
ordinary Germans of common,
ordinary Americans. They
fought us because we were
THE ENEMY.
Nor- & ' '
Among us
Was there any particular
hatred of Germans as Ger

COSTLY VICTORY
i Washington-The Democrats
have won a costiy victory in
an unnecessary war m tne
Senate's rejec
tion of Lewis
L. Strauss to
be Secretary
of Commerce.
They have re
fused Mr. Ei
senhower the
p r i v ilege of
ay President
tn have a man
Williams.- , r . .
white of his own
choice in the Cabinet so long
as that man is not morally or
mentally, unfit. And they have
made this great demonstration
over what usually is politi
cally the least significant post
in all the Cabinet, that of
commerce.
A Strauss confirmed would
have created for them a far
more useful issue for 1960
than a Strauss repudiated -and
repudiated, moreover, on
grounds so thin as to have no
example in our history. .
FOR the very qualities the
Democrats attributed to
the nominee would have been
endless bad news for the Re
publicans had the Democrats
allowed him to be confirmed
in office. They found him "ar
rogant" toward Congress. They
found him "deceitful" (though
to an onlooker his "deceit"
seemed to lie most of all in
his refusal to cooperate with
his Senate prosecutors).
They disliked him as an
Old Guard Republican, a Her
bert Hoover Republican, an
anti-public power man, as in
deed he was and is. Every
shortcoming they attributed
to him would inevitably have
weakened the Administration
politically had he remained in
it. For ' his basic political
philosophy has been a handi
cap at the national polls for
at least 20 years.
In plain words, the Demo
crats have rescued Mr. Eisen
'hower from the consequences
of what was, politically, a
poor appointment in the first
place. For the first personal
defeat of President Eisenhow
er they have attempted in his
six years in office they have
have chosen the worst possi
ble vehicle.
FOR whatever else it may
lie, the true vulnerability
of 'the Administration surely
cannot be said to lie in the
less-than-burning question as
to who is to run the Depart
War II. The Germans fought
us as ENEMIES. We fought
them in the same way. We
took our hating out on Hitler.
IN CONCLUSION:
How TERRIBLY impor
tant is leadership!
If.- throughout the world, in
every country, there was the
RIGHT KIND OF LEADER
SHIP, there would be little
danger of war.

sources point out that Eisen

the invitation first and that
De Gaulle should go to Wash

DeGaulle is only chief of state

ment of Commerce. Mr,
Strauss is incomparably more
important politically as a sym
bol of harsh Senate veto than
be ever would have been as
a recipient of Senate ap
proval. .
In fact, in looking back the
whole affair really was a se
ries of blunders-by the Presi
dent, by Strauss himself in
his human but unwisely bel
ligerent conduct before the
Senate, and by the Demo
crats. The Republicans would
have been the losers had the
Democrats allowed him to be
confirmed. But the Demo
crats are the net losers now.
Why, then, did it all hap
pen? It happened most of all
because of the long frustra
tions of many Democrats,
mostly liberal Democrats. For
years they have been clamor
ing that the party must "fight
Eisenhower." Now, at last,
they have prevailed on calm
er colleagues to "fight." Their
motive was understandable,
'for politics cannot and should
not be simply an unending,
polite minuet.
But the trouble 'was that
the Democrats oversimplified.
To "fieht" is one thing. But
to fight at the wrong time in
the wrong place and for the
wrong reason is quite another
thing.
THEY got the whole ques
tion confused. The point
never was whether Strauss
would be a "good" Secretary
of Commerce. The point never
was whether he had the truly
"sound" political ideas of the
present. There were only two
simple and related issues: Did
the President have a right
to Strauss if he wanted him?

To Be or Not To Be:

think it should, and do not
want their hands tied by any

which might come back to
haunt them should -.they suc

urging labor to say flatly that
Britain will renounce -the
