(UPI Telephoto) Fullmer Keeps Toga With Wide Decision By JACK CUDDY United Press International Logan, Utah (UPD - Gene Fullmer, a lop-sided victor over Challenger Spider Webb, announced today he was will ing to "defend" his NBA ver sion of the world middle weight crown against Sugar Ray Robinson for 'a good guar antee. Fullmer of West Jordan, Utah, cleaned up .the NBA's required defense Friday night by bludgeoning out a unani mous 15-round decision over Webb of Chicago in the Utah State university's fieldhouse. It was a return bout. Bull shouldered Gene had won a unanimous 10-round verdict over lanky Webb at Salt Lake City on Sept. 11, 1958.

Co-promoter Norman Roths child estimated the crowd "at 7,000 and the gate at $90,000. Many of the spectators in the large gymnasium booed the decision.

Writers Favor Fullmer Because of the booing, the United Press International took a poll of 12 sports writers at the ringside. Eleven had Fullmer winning. Only one had Webb ahead. The UPI's scoresheet favored Fullmer, 146-140. It was a rousing fight at times but occasionally dull. In the 10th there was scatter ed booing because Webb re fused to lead into the cham pion, and Webb even motion ed with his gloves for Gene to come in and fight. But Fullmer, wearing the NBA crown, figured it was Webb's job to come and get the title if he wanted to. Gene used plunging and swarming tactics as counter-measures when Webb came in. However, at times, Fullmer did take the lead and went swinging after the challenger with wild hooks that jolted and shook the Spider when they landed.

Although the "fearsome foursome" Syracuse backfield performed as expected, sopho more quarterback Easterly was an unexpected star with his passing and running in relief of Dave Sarette. East erly passed for two scores and ran for a third. "And Schwartzwalder used his second unit more than his first in an effort to combat the heat." It worked against the heat but failed to affect the scoring. The big Orange machine demonstrated its power the first time it got the ball with a 43 yard scoring drive after a pass interception. Syracuse drove smoothly to the sixth where Sarette passed to Schwedes for the score. r IIOUIAI $67.75a SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PRICE ONLY $57.95 Drill Prtss 13" Jig SawJ 10" Band Saw. 4" Ball Bearing Jointer Combination Saw and Jointer (Ball Bearing) Grinder Hone Floyd I "iMifi .i Asm rAMOi 310 East Main Street, Medford, Oregon Phone SPring 2-2113 WE GIVE S&H GREEN STAMPS CHRISTMAS!
