Md. -ITt-Young Marvin McFarland de manded a shot at Don Jor dan's welterweight crown to- di,y for upscuing him in a non-title tuncup Monday night, but Jordan was flying to Las Vegas. Nev., for a title defense against Benny (Kid) Parel of Cuba on May 27. Meanwhile, as a result of Monday night's wild but profitless night at the Memor ial s la d i u m , middleweight challenger Sugar Ray Robin son was threatened with in definite suspension for fail ure to appear in a scheduled cofeaturcd tuneup.
