Little Takes Main
On PAL Mitt Card
Bobby Little, Medford, took
charge at the start and pound
ed out a unanimous decision
over Joe Riggins, Coos Bay,
in the Medford Police Ath
letlc league boxing card at
the Armory Saturday night.
An estimated 500 spectators
saw PAL mittmen score trl
umphs in six of the 10 tus
sles that matched Medford
fighters against represcnta
tives of the Coos Bay club.
There were 11 bouts in all
on the card for the benefit
of the National Research
foundation's March of Dimes.
John Wlnningham, 130,
Medford PAL, decisioned Jun
ior Thompson, Coos Bay in
the semi-windup and Larry
Lewis, 145, from the local or
ganization, took an easy ver
dict from Robert Golns, Coos
Bay, in the special event.
Riggins, substituting for
Don Wilhrow, of the coast
city who had the flu, found
why Medford's Little has be
come one of the top battlesr
of the slate in his weight. The
Coos club scrappers confi
dence faded quickly as the
result of Bobby's fast punch
ing combinations.
Winningham's bout with
Junior Thompson was not so
fast and torrid as their pre
vious skirmish in the coast
town. The Applegate area
youth was bothered by
swelling left eye caused by
an unintentional head butt,
This hampered his vision. He
had trouble finding his man
and took several heard right
punches. These shook Wlnn
ingham but failed to slow him
down.
Lewis displayed the power
and form which won him an
AAU Boxing championship of
Oregon several years back.
He spotted Coins 12 pounds

pummeled Goins' body In ev
ery round. Goins was game
but appeared glad to hear the

In the first boxing show
here in almost two years,
there was crowd pleasing ac
tion in all the bouts. Appetite
for action was zested when
Dale Birkland, PAL, and Ran

scrape. These 85-pounders
treated fans to a fast, furious
duel. Blrkland's pressing at

won him a unanimous decis
ion. Hardly had the cheers for
this bout faded when the
crowd was shouting encour
agement to Rusty Smith and
Ricky Orr, both of the local
stable In an 85-pound exhi
bition. The skill the youths
picked up in hours of coach
ing was apparent. Smith show
ed himself a fast, skillful
will o' the wisp boxer, dart
ing in and out for fast com
binations. Orr displayed heav
ler punching to the head and
body. Smith was given the de
cision by the narrowest of

Miami Beach flJPD Swed
ish Ingemar Johansson,
scaling the heaviest of his
career, had an unexpected
advantage of 11V4 pounds
over champion Floyd Pat
terson at the weigh-in for
their third heavyweight ti
tle fight tonight. Johansson
scaled 206 'a pounds, Pat
terson 1943,.
By JACK CUDDY
Miami Beach - IUP1) - Cham
pion Floyd Patterson and
Swedish Ingemar Johansson
were officially notified today
that the gate had passed the
all-Important $400,000 mark
for their third and decisive
heavyweight title fight to
night at the Miami Beach Con
vention hall.
Both boxers expressed re
lief that sportsman Bill Mac-
Donald of Miami Beach would
not lose money on his $400,-
000 guarantee for the schedu
led 15-round fight, and offici
als of Feature Sports, Inc.,
sent a telegram to MacDonald
releasing him from the guar
antee. A crowd of 13,000 is ex
pected when 26-year-old Pat
terson of Rockville Centre,
N.Y., and 28-yea-old Johans
son of Sweden and Switzer
land square off with the six
ounce gloves at 10:30 p.m.
(est).
Left-hooker Patterson, first
man to recapture the heavy
crown, is favored at 18-5 to
beat Ingo, the explosive right-
handed puncher - as he did in
their second fight last June
20. Floyd's left hooks floored
big, brown-haired Ingo twice
in the fifth round for a knock
out that night.
Swede Confident
Johansson, who knocked
out Patterson in the third
round of their first fight in
1959, told friends today he
hoped h 1 a unprecedentedly
stiff training this time had
geared him to stiffen Floyd
again and make himself the
second man to win back the
title.
Although tonight's interna
tional "rubber match" is
scheduled for. 15 rounds, the
betting is at "even money"
that it doesn't last more than
six rounds, regardless of the
winner. And it's 8-1 that it
doesn't go the full 15 sessions.
However, should It unexpect
edly last its scheduled dis
tance, the betting is 25-1 that
Johansson doesn't win the de
cision. When tonight's match was
first made for the 15,022-scat
arena, officials of Feature
Sports aimed at a sellout of
$1,000,000 - with tickets
TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
4 i
priced at $100, $50 and $20.
But now it appears unlikely
that the gate will reach $500,-
000.
However, the bout still may
be the richest fight in history
because of the booming sales
at theater-TV locations in the
United States and Canada, as
well as the large guarantees
paid for radio, movies and
foreign kinescopes.
Expects Record Gate
Irving B. Kahn, president
of Teleprompter - which
bought the right to theater-
TV, radio, movies, etc. - an
nounced that the total recipts
from those "ancillaries" prom
ise an unprecedented gross of
$4 million.
Medford's Craterian thea
ter reported that it was sold
out as of Saturday after
noon for its closed circuit
television showing this eye
ing of the Floyd Paiierson
Ingemar Johansson heavy
weight title bout. The bout
will start at 7:30 p.m. Doors
at the theater open at 6:30
p.m.
Johansson, who floored
Floyd seven times in the third
round for a technical knock
out in their first fight, will
be free to defend against any
challenger he chooses if he
takes the title from Patterson
tonight. There's no return-
bout contract.
Thanks to the possible $4
million in gross ancillary re
ceipts, plus the "live" gate,
the purses of Floyd and Ingo
may approach the million
dollar mark this time.
Each gets 25 per cent of the
net live gate, and Feature
Sports receives 50 per cent.
However, Patterson's cut of
the promotion's ancillary re
ceipts in 50 per cent; Johans
son's, 35. Feature Sports gets
15. In addition, Johansson has
the entire Scandinavian rights
to radio and film.
