Confidence

Redlands, Calif.- 4UPD -Ollie
Matson, with seven seasons
behind him in the National
Pro Football league, has his
first chance this year to op
erate with a first class club
and he may make gridiron
history.
The 29-year-old San Fran
cisco athlete, traded to the
Los Angeles Rams by the Chi
cago Cardinals for three-
quarters of a football team,
has a quiet confidence about
his own ability and he's im
pressed with his new team
mates, t
In training with the Rams
here, Matson had nothing to
say against the Cardinals but
it was obvious he was happy
to be away from the rag-tail
last-place club.
Looking Forward
N "The Cardinals were a fine
bunch of fellows," he said
Then he added with obvious
relish, "this is a fine team-
the Rams. I'm looking for
ward to my best season."
Matson, who was a hero to
Northern California fans when
he played for the University
of. San Francisco, was not
bothered about the prospect
of appearmg in what San
Franciscans look on as the
enemy camp-Los Angeles.
"A fullback for all of his
career, Matson may find him
self called on for work at
other backfield positions with
the Rams who were tied for
second in the western division
of the National league last
season and hope he can help
win them a championship.
"I'm .really learning three
positions with the Rams," he
said, "fullback, halfback and
flanker back."

To Defend
By JACK CUDDY
New York (UPD After a
lapse of 21 months, Sugar Ray
Robinson will defend his "big
portion" of the middleweight
crown against Paul Pender at
the Boston Garden, Dec. 5,
"without a guarantee of any
kind." .
"I've still got a big por
tion of the championship,"
said 39-year-Ray today, "and
I'm defending it without a
guarantee because I've got a
good percentage deal and be
cause it'll help independent
promoters."
The promoters are Sam
Silverman and Johnny Buck
ley of Boston.
Sleek, slender Robinson -who
signed Thursday night
to defend against the Brook
line, Mass., contender, said,
"I'm still recognized as cham
pion in New York, Massa
chusetts, Pennsylvania, Ten
nessee, Cuba, and continental
Europe."
Hopes To Extend Title
He added, "and next year
I hope to regain recognition
everywhere."
Robinson's defense against
29-year-old Pender will be his
first since he recaptured the
160-pound title from Carmen
Basilio at the Chicago Stadi
um, March 2, 1958.
Because of his .inactivity,
the National Boxing Assn. va
cated his title on May 4. Ex
champions Basilio of Chitten

mer of West Jordan, Utah,
are scheduled to fight for the
NBA version of the title at
