Liston Challenges Ex-Champ After
Third Round K.O. Win Over Folley
Win Removes
Any Doubts
About Power
Denver- (UPD -Sonny Liston
the steel-fisted Philadelphia
Negro whose knockout of
Zora Folley Monday night
made him the most logical
contender for the heavyweight
crown, challenged Ingemar
Johansson today for the right
to battle Champion Floyd Patterson.
' Liston, who had rocketed
to the snot as ranking con
tender for the crown with
eight successive knockouts of
relatively obscure opponents,
removed any doubts about the
cower in his 14-tnch lists Mon
day night. He floored the
ouick-fisted Folley, one of the
division's best boxers, for the
10 count with 28 seconds gone
in the third round.
Down Twice
The 215V4-pound Liston put
Folley, who weighed 198W,
down twice on nine counts in
.the second round. Only the
bell saved the Chandler, Ariz.
veteran for the third round
finish of the scheduled 12
rounder. Liston's manager. Pep Ba-
rone, said his slugger was
eager to fight Johansson, the
ex-champion from Sweden,
for the opportunity to face
Patterson in a championship
bout. But Patterson and- Jo
hansson are slated for a re
match, and Liston may have
to wait.
"We'll take Johansson
next," Barone said. "If we
can't beat Johansson, then Jo
hansson would have the right
to fight Patterson again."
Liston has a grudge against
the good-looking Swede, who
wouldn't permit the Phila-
delphian into-the ring for an
introduction during the last
Patterson-Johansson fight in
New York.
Stroud Tops Stroud

Stroud, Okla. - ff!?D - A 22-year-old
Oklahoman skilled at
throwing the discus won the
first world brick - throwing
championship Saturday in a
contest between this brick-

Gloucestershire, England.
' Dan Erwin, of Chandler,
Okla., tossed a five -pound
brick 104 feet, six inches, to
claim the title for the United
States. The best the British
could do was 84 feet, the mark

LISTON RECOILS Sonny Liston (left) re
coils from a punch thrown by Zora Folley
in the first round of their heavyweight bout
in Denver Monday night. Both men looked
strong in the first round but Liston floored
Folley twice in the second and then put
him away for good in the third. Liston has
since challenged ex-champ Ingemar Johann
son for the right to fight Floyd Patterson.

No Match for
Rafer Johnson
Moscow UPD Unless Vasili
Kuznetsov improves consider
ably over his decathlon per
formance In the Soviet nation
al championships, he will not
be much of a match for
America's Rafer Johnson
the Olympics next month.
Kuznetsov, who held the
world decathlon record until
Johnson broke it at Eugene,
Ore., July 8 and 9, won the
Russian national champion
ship Monday, but his 7,737
point total was unimpressive.
Johnson, who beat Kuznet
sov in the 1956 Olympics at
Melbourne, set a world record
of 8,683 points earlier this
month. Kuznetsov held the
previous mark of 8,357.
Soviet track experts ack
nowledged that Kuznetsov's
competition here was not as
tough as that which he will
meet at Rome and that he was
not pressed to his best performance.

and with President Branch
Rickey of the Continental
league to "expedite prompt
expansion."
Set No Deadline
In essence, the National
league was ready to tell the
fledgling Continental loop: "If
you can't get going on this
matter of expansion, we'll
take it over."
Although Giles stressed no
deadline had been set, base
ball men agreed it could be
next season. The most likely
expansion arrangement ap
peared to be the addition of
New York and Houston to the
National league, with Minne-apolis-St.
Paul and either To
ronto or a second Los Angeles
team joining the American
league.
The American league has
gone on record favoring ex
pansion but has said it could
not proceed unless the NL did
likewise.
American league President
Joe Cronin said in Boston that
he maintained all along ex
pansion was "inevitable."
"I am happy to know they
are considering it," Cronin
commented. "We have the ma
chinery for it. We made it
possible by an amendments
our constitution some years
ago. We have a realignment
committee and a catastrophe
plan we could use to give
players to new teams."
'No Merger Ideas'
In New York, Bill Shea,
chairman of the Continental
league founder group, said the
proposed third major league
has no ideas about folding
and-or merging with the ma
jors. "None of our owners have
any thought of defecting to
the American or National
league," Shea said. "There is
a substantial penalty to be
paid by anyone who defects.
"I have said all along that
the majors would not expand
from within," Shea continued.
"Branch Rickey has said the
same thing. Adding ninth and
tenth teams in the American
and National leagues would
prove economically disas
trous , , ,"
Giles, following Monday's
meeting, said: "We are ready
to go. We are taking this ac
tion to expedite expansion."
The owners named a com
mittee of four. They were
Walter O'Malley, Los Angeles;
Lou Perini, Milwaukee; John
Galbreath, Pittsburgh, and
Bob Carpenter, Philadelphia.
Giles said he believed the
committee would contact with
the American league and the
Contiental league immediate
ly to set up a meeting.
The expansion committee
immediately notified Rickey
of the developments. They in
formed him of the vote to
"implement expansion via the
Continental league or in
creased membership."
The committee also invited
Rickey to meet with the Na
tional league committee at his
convenience to advise him of
a time and place for the meeting.

lejo, Calif., and took first
place in the unlimited un
blown boat race at the first
annual Vallejo, Calif., All
American Regatta.

horsepower Cadillac motor.
Lon s boat broke a rudder
just after getting into first
place with a lap to go In the
first heat in which nine boats
were entered. He borrowed a
rudder for the next two heats.
In the second heat Skinner
finished ahead of Ray Nivalo,
