brain conditioning now to fit
him for the 15-rounder at

his long-time physician and
mental super-charger.
This is not a new procedure
with Dr. Karlsson of Gote
borg, Sweden, and the Gote

me since I was 17 years old,"

him with all my troubles, and

Floyd Sharp
For Tangle
With Inge
By JACK CUDDY
Chatham, N J. (tJPD - A
matured and apparently im
proved Floyd Patterson will
finish pre-fight training today
in "sharp" condition for the L
I it st time since ne won tne
heavyweight title.
"He'll be exactly right for
Ingemar Johansson Thursday
night," said trainer Dan
Florio.
Whether he wins or loses,
there can be no excuses that
he ' was ring-rusty or over
trained. There were explana
tions after each of his four
previous defenses, . none of
which was impressive.
Experts, including Rocky
Marciano Sunday, marvelled
at the speedy coordination
and power displayed by 24-year-old
Floyd while deliver
ing his salvOs of hooking com
binations in preparation for
unbeaten Johansson, cham
pion of Europe.
Come Remarkably
"I'd say he's improved in
every department," admitted
the usually conservative
Florio. He's come on remark
ably since his May 1 defense
against Brian London at In
dianapolis. He needed that
fight under his belt."
Floyd cut lose only four
times Sunday with his hook
ing combinations because of
the heat in the jam-packed
gymnasium, here at Ehsan
Karadag's hillside camp.
When Floyd finished Sun
day, he weighed only 180
pounds. He plans to fight at
about 182 VS. Johansson will
scale about 197, an advantage
of nearly 15 pounds. -
The champion claims he
has not battle plan. "I never
make any plans before a
fight," he said. "If you make
plans, and the other fellow
doesn't do what you expect,
it throws you off. I just wait
and map my fight in the ring,
depending on what he does."
Doug Ford
Winner in
Canadian
By DICK BACON
Ste. Dorpthee, Que. (DPD
Doug (Gangbusters) Ford, who
thought he "forgot how to
win," today reigned as the
50th Canadian Open Golf
champion.
Ford, golfs most consistent
money winner who wanted "to
win so bad I could taste it,"
finally came home a winner
Sunday when he shot a' pres

New Haven, Conn., now play
ing out of- Paradise, Fla.,
started the final day with
rounds of 68-69-69, one shot
back -of the leaders, Finster
wald and the young Aussie,
23-year-old Bruce Crampton,
The victory was worth
$3,500 to Ford, and increased
his earnings to $19,335.57,
moving him from sixth to
third place behind Wall and
Billy Casper Jr., Apple Val
ley, Calif., the U.S. Open win
ner who finished this tourney
74-69-74-66-283.

even par 72, three shots be
hind Ford for a three-way tie

LA's Dodgers
Try to Forget
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles-ttJPfl-The Dodg
ers today tried to forget the
17-3 debacle of the Cincinnati
Reds and instead looked ahead
to four games with the cellar-
dwelling Philadelphia-Phil
lies starting tonight.
Sandy Koufax, one of four
pitchers on the Dodger roster
who did not get into Sunday's
game, starts tonight against
the Phillies. The lefthander is
4-1 lor tne season and ap
peared to be back in top con
dition again. Philly manager
Eddie Sawyer sent word
ahead that Jim Owens; 4-4,
would be his starter.
Bik Newk Stars
1 Former Dodger, star Don
Newcombe was the Cincinnati
hurler who pitched the win
against his former teammates
and inflicted the worst defeat
Los Angeles has suffered this
year. Newk not only scored
his seventh . complete game
but he was 4-4 at the plate.
He drove in four runs.
"I haven't seen this club
look so bad since 'I've been
with it," manager Walt Alston
commented.
"The fielders couldn't catch
the ball and there was no ex
cuse for some of the sloppy
play."
The Dodders committed
three . errors, had two wild
pitches and a balk, a hit hats
man and several plays that
were not called errors only be
cause the outfielders did not
touch the ball.
Cincinnati combed six pitch
ers for 17 hits and received 10
walks to make the win an
easy one.
