Sport Parade New York -flJPfl- The skull duggery associated with prize fighting hasn't changed in al most a half century, it is ob vious today, and neither has the suspicious sports rivalry between the East and West Coasts. .Screams of 'we wuz robbed' can be heard after almost any debatable fistic venture. And you don't have to look any farther than the Kentucky Derby to find the East knock ing the West, and vice versa. " But it was the same way as, far back as 1912, according to a new book, "High Tension," detailing the memoirs of for mer United Press president Hugh Baillie. Baillie's is a book which. as result of a globe-trotting career, ranges all the way from Wilson to Eisenhower. "He gives the low-down on the MacArthurs and the Musso linis, ' Paris and Pusan, war and peace, international he roes and villains, and just about everything from Billy Sunday to Soviet Russia. Sports Fan, Too , But he was a sports fan, too. So he also finds time for such things as boxing, base ball and auto racing. His rec ollections of the fight mob include the double-knockout of Ad Wolgast and Mexican Joe Rivers and the time John ny Kilbane slicked the feath- erweigni uue away irom ADe Attell. :! Those two brawls were bit vague to you, but they rate high in the ring history book. Baillie could have talk ed about them all, through Dempsey and right up on past Marciano, but these" were significant to him because they were among the first he ' covered. There was, quite naturally, tremendous confusion the day that Wolgast and Rivers both -threw simultaneous knockout punches, "Referee Jack Welch was not confused though," Baillie (writes. "He picked up Wolgast ,and counted Rivers out on 'the grounds that Wolgast was the champ and thus entitled to the preference. He also thought Wolgast landed first. There were no judges to add up score cards and vote on de cisions. Instead, the bell sounded, the referee lifted the winner's arm, and that was that." gles, nd brought in both runs in the second inning. In the scoring frame, short stop Calvin Dean got a single and advanced to second on a passed ball. Walks by Ander son and Lowell Dean moved him to third. Ray Konopasek walked, bringing Dean home, and then Anderson scored from third on a wUd pitch. Bill Anhorn pitched for Central Point. He got some relief in ,the fourth frame when John Anhorn took over the mound, but Bill came back in the fifth to finish out the ball game. Pinch Hitter ' . In the final inning, with two out and Cheney trailing by two runs, Jeff Anhorn was brought in to hit for Jerry Hauck. A pop-up to Kono pasek ended the ball game. A play-off game between Medford and the northern di vision winner, Roseburg, is scheduled for Sunday. An up set can turn the tables, though. That would tie up the division lead again and force a play-off between Medford and either Klamath Falls or the Studs. Central Point 000 000 0 0 0 1 Medford .. .020 000 X 2 3 1 B. Anhorn.

Sept. 22 For TiftDe By JACK CUDY New York- (UPD- Promoter Bill Rosensohn revealed to day the "target date" for the return Ingemar Johansson Floyd Patterson heavyweight title fight is Sept. 22 at Yan kee Stadium. He added that the stadium could accommodate 80,000 for a sellout 3 million dollar gate. The slender young promot er disclosed his plans today while discussing "somewhat exaggerated stories" from Los Angeles earlier in the week. These stories indicated that the big fight would be held in the City of Angels. "Let me clear the air right now," declared dark-haired, Lincolnesque Bill. "I hope to stage the, Johansson-Patterson fight at Yankee Stadium on By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International - Welch would be run out of town these days for lifting one battler off the deck and yet, as further indication that box ing times change but little in the final analysis, Baillie re calls that Attell worked a still-used dodge by coating his face against Kilbane with a surplus of grease. "At one point the referee had to stop the fight," he re members, "call for a towel and massage the grease off the wily Attell." 'The Kentucky Derby usu ally brings out the -most vo ciferous name-calling between the East and the West. Cali fornia speed horses such as Your Host and, a costly mem ory, Silky Sullivan, make the bluegrass contingent look with suspicion on the calibre of Western invaders. Then such winners as Swaps Determine and Tomy Lee make the east ern dudes eat their words. s. v Baillie felt this suspicion as a young man working in Los Angeles when he reported an unassisted triple play by cen ter fielder. Walt Carlisle of Vernon, later Hollywood, against Los Angeles. "Many papers thought it was a gag," he pens. "Eastern sportswriters were suspicious of all world records coming out of California then why, we even had sprinters who were clocked in less than 10 seconds for the 100-yard dash, which was then regarded as impossible. But a ball park full of people had seen Car lisle's bit of magic and it's in the record books today." It was a tough era in which ball players were "willing to beat up a reporter" who had written something they didn't like. Baillie walked among them toting a piece of lead in a sock. But, he proves in this book, he didn't really need a home made blackjack. He can knock you out with words. DAILY'S Body flrPdnt ' Southern Oregon's Oldest and Finest 29 S.

And speaking of targets, he said, "we're actually 'aiming at a 60.000 crowd and a 2 million dollar gate although a sellout : would mean 80,000 and a 3 million, dollars." '.
