OPEN SUNDAYS CLOSED SATURDAYS " 9 a.m. 6 p.m. Week Days New York - (DPD - Fearless Fraley's facts and figures: If you wondered what hap pened to Hoyt Wilhelm, the Baltimore pitcher who was sailing along, with nine straight victories and then lost five of his next sixgames the answer is that opposing hitters smartened up and b 4 e a n - "slanDine" at his knuckle ball instead of taking' a free swing. .. Nine out of every 10 pitches he was throwing were knuck- lers and the hitters began timing and cuffing his slow stuff. To get him to throw more fast balls . . he's hop ing that more of a mixture will get Wilhelm in a winning groove once agam . . . Sonny Liston, who battles Nino Valdesat Chicago on Aug. 5 in a televised bout, talks more like ' the number on challenger instead of a man who stands fourth in a not- too - impressive line. Liston saw a theater showing of the bout in which Ingemar Jo hansson kayoed Floyd Patter son for the title and hag harsh words for both of them. Spoken Like a Tiger "Now I know for sure why that manager of Patterson's is so about opponents," he as serted. "Patterson didn't show nothin' and couldn't take a punch, either. Johansson's got nothin' in his jab and all he did was get in one lucky punch." . . . spoken like a true tiger ... The slugging power of the Washington Senators has drawn raves this season on the home run efforts of Killer Killebrew, Bob Allison, Jim Lemon and Roy Sievers. But Al Lopiz, Chicago White Sox manager, also praises their pitching with the accent on Camilo Pascual. He claims Pascual has the best curve ball in the league and a good fast ball to go with it. Which proves that the senor is an appreciative man. The White Sox. won one and lost one against Pascual. But in his winning effort he lasted only six innings and when Chicago beat him they rattled him for nine hits . . . Lopez obviously 'would like to see more of Camilo's curves . . . Trainer Sunny Jini Fitzsim- mons, who celebrated his 85th birthday this week, finally hinted that in the long caval cade of thoroughbreds he han dled his favorite was Nashua. He admitted that his greatest thrill was Nashua's match race victory over Swaps and pointed out that Nashua's first sons will reach the races next year . . . meaning "bring money" to the Kehneland and Saratoga sales .... What " with such former fisticuffers as Rocky Grazi ano, Abe Simon, Lou Nova and Tony Galento hamming it up in the entertainment world, it figured that former middleweight champion Jake Lamotta would make a deter mined bid. He's currently ap pearing as "Big Julie" - in "Guys and Dolls" at the Hud son Theater-in-the-Park - and it's a sad commentary that Lloyd Bridges knocks him out with one shot ... Elsewhere in the entertain ment world, "Rifleman" Chuck Connors will appear at the New York Yankee Old Timers' Day at the Stadium Aug. 8. This is really milking the attendance- dollar what with Connors having played for the Chicago Cubs in 1951, hitting .239 in 66 games. The Yankees announce that he "played briefly as a Dodg er in 1949." . . . very briefly, might be added. He appeared in one game and hit .000 . . . The New York City Depart ment of Public Events will present Ingemar Johansson with a perpetual heavyweight champion trophy Sept. 9 and will attempt to have all for mer heavyweight kings on hand for the ceremony. An unusual bit is that 13 former champs still are around, go ing all the way back to Jess Willard . . . Patterson is the 13th . Did you hear the baseball story about the umpire who came home, cuffed his son, relented and asked the lad to sit on his lap and was amazed when the kid refused? The moral of the story is: The son never sits on the brutish umpire. Driver Predicts Miss Spokane Will Take Cup Spokane -u!PD- Norm Evans. driver of the Miss Spokane in the Diamond dm races at Coeur d'Alene last week, had a prediction to make Friday.
