I of veterans felt the axe. Jim Podoley of the Giants, L. G. Dupre of the Cowboys, Lee Grosscup of the Vikings, Dick Lasse and John Aveni of the Redskins, Ben Agajanian of the Packers, Bob Schnelker of the Steelers and track stars Ray Norton and Ted Woods of the Forty Niners were the more prominent players who were cut loose bv the NFL clubs. The AFL clubs, which open their season this week end, were even more hard-pressed, cutting down to 33 - man squads, while scanning the NFL release list to see if any one there could help them. mere were a number of last minute trades, too, to further confuse matters. 90 Players Involved A total of 51 players in the NFL and 39 in the AFL were either placed on waivers or on the injured-deferred list, a protective measure which en ables a club to hold onto a player for at least four weeks while he is healing without his counting against the of ficial player limit. Tne move, usually involving veteran players, also enables a club which is rebuilding to take a longer look at some of the more promising rookies. ine last -gasp trades in volved the Cowboys, Colts, Redskins. Rams and Cardinals of the NFL and the Patriots and Bills in the AFL. The Redskins obtained vet eran linebacked Bob Pelle grini from the Rams in ex change for a high 1964 draft choice; the Cowboys shipped end Dick Bielski to the Colts and picked up defensive half back and kicker Jerry Norton from the Cardinals, who in turn get a high Baltimore draft choice; the Patriots traded defensive tackle Jerry De Lucca to the Bills for a future draft choice after sign ing veteran defensive tackle Jesse Richardson, cut a week ago by the Eagles. Patterson May Feel IRS Punch By ED SAINSBURY Chicago-fflPD - The hardest punch heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson may take this year could come after his title defense Sept. 25 against Son ny Liston. It would be thrown by the U. S. internal revenue depart ment. Patterson signed for the fight, whose promoters predict a gate of more than $6 or $7 million including closed cir cuit TV and radio rights, with an understanding that he would get 55 per cent of the total, most of it to be paid over a 17-year-period. If the government approves, Patterson would have to pay tax on his share as he receives it, over the 17-year-period. But it now develops that there's no assurance from the government that he won't have to pay tax on his entire share, regardless of when he gets it, at the close of the 1962 tax year, next April 15. If the government doesn't accept the tax haven program designed to permit Patterson to pay these taxes over this period, tax liens might be sworn out against all of his assets as well as those of his manager, Cus D'Amato, and others connected with him. Patterson this year will re ceive 55 per cent of the net receipts of the fight, at Co miskey Park, and a $300,000 payment for ancillary rights. Then for the next 17 years he was to receive 55 per cent of a minimum payment of $100,000 plus interest annual ly for ancillary rights. If the ancillary rights exceed the guaranteed $2 million, then Patterson's share would in crease. Tax officials have indicated there is a weight of legal opinion that money is taxable in the year it is earned. If the internal revenue bureau takes this position, then Patterson might have to pay tax this year on as much as $2.5 or $3 million, and the tax could be as high as 90 per cent. MedfordTrisuni SIPODIKTS Buffalo Bill Could Have Best Club in 3 Seasons; Roll-Out Boosts Offense (This is on in a secies on the pre-stason prospects of professional football teams for 1962.) By WILLIAM J. MONAHAN Buffalo. N.Y. - JPD - Coach Lou Saban, in his first year on the job, has thoroughly re vamped the Buffalo Bills and it looks like this should be their best club in three Ameri can Football league seasons. Buffalo showed much im provement in winning two of its first three pre season games, including a 21-14 tri umph over the champion Houston Oilers. "With just a little more help, we'll have a shot at that eastern title," Saban says. "That roll-out style of Al Dorow and Warren Rabb is making the difference." Saban went to work from the start, looking for the right players. He's traded more than any other coach in the league. Only a few players remain Linebackers Will Hear Woodward ' Jack ' Woodward, Phoenix High school football coach, is scheduled to speak at the meeting of tha Mediord Line backers club at noon on Fri day, Sept. 7. at North's Chuck Wagon. Woodward c o a c h d his Phoenix Pirates to the state Class A-2 co-championship in 1961 and the East team to vic tory last month in the Shrine high school all-star game at Pendleton. PORTLAND WILL SEEK 1968 OLYMPICS Portland-IUPII-Backers of a plan to bring the 1968 Olym pic games to a spanking new sports center in North Port land said today the idea was not a pipe dream. Mayor Terry Schrunk Tues day announced Portland would make a formal request to the U. S. Olympic commit tee in Chicago Oct. 15. Should Portland be the U.S. choice it would have to com pete with cities from other countries. Detroit, Los An geles, San Francisco, Phila delphia and Minneapolis also have indicated interest in the 1968 Olympic games. The last Olympics in this country were held in Los Angeles in 1932. The 1964 games are in Tokyo. . "Every other city in the world which has been selected has started with nothing and then built its facilities after it was selected," Tom Hum phrey, member of Metropoli tan Future unlimited, said. Delta Park Ara This group, which recently announced a proposal for a $48 million sports complex in north Portland's Delta park area, is backing the bid for the Olympic games. Some of the facilities neces sary, backers said, include a stadium which could seat or be expandend to seat 80,000; an Olympic village to house 6,000 to 7,000 athletes, ac commodations for 2,500 press representatives and 30,000 ac commodations for officials and visitors.

That's Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg's assessment of his 1962 Medford High school football crew. One per day drills are now being conducted for the Black Tornado. Spiegel bsrg reported left halfback Jack Lowery looking real good. The head man said that three transfers show prom ise.

It is putting Kern Spurs Portland United Press International The cellar - dwelling Spo kane Indians have probably seen enough of Portland out fielder Bill Kern during the last two nights to last them the rest of the Pacific Coast league season and then some. Tuesday night Kern hit a two-run homer in the first inning and scored the winning run to account for all the Beavers' runs in a 3-2 victory over the Indians. The homer was Kern's third in two games. Monday he socked two and drove in four runs in lead ing Portland to an 8-7 win. Kern's homer got the Bea vers off to a 2-0 lead and then in the ninth with the score tied 2-2 he came home on Gordon Windhorn's single to give the victory to Mickey Lolich, who faced just one man in getting credit for his ninth win of the season.

She fired two rounds of 68 in that meet. from the team Buster Ramsey coached last year. Obtained From Titans The 31-year-old Dorow, an experienced quarterback, was picked up from the New York Titans at the expense of All League safetyman Billy At kins and quarterback Johnny Green. The Titans also pro vided three rugged linemen -Sid Youngelman (265 pounds), Tom Sestak (261) and Tom Saidck (260). Wayne Crow came in a trade from the Oakland Raid ers and is one of Saban's most versatile players. "I had to trade Chuck Mc Murtry for Crow," Saban said, "and I'd do it all over again. He's a handy man to have around. He'll roll out and run or pass on the option, play defensive halfback and best of all, he can punt." From north of the border, Saban acquired the Canadian league's "Peck's Bad Boy," Chester (Cookie) Gilchrist, a 243-pound fullback who at 27 has played nine years of pro ball. Gilchrist went through five Canadian clubs - winning All-League honors four years - and was finally waived out by the Toronto Argonauts for his off-the-field antic3. He is also an expert place kicker, linebacker and defensive line man. Share Fullback Spot Gilchrist and Syracuse star Art Baker share the fullback job with former fullback Wray Carlton and Crow ai the running back spot. Elbert Dubenion, a possible trading card for Saban, and Joe Fowl kes, picked up from the Bos ton Patriots, are flanker backs.) On the receiving end for Dorow, Rabb and Crow are Ernie Warlick, six-foot-four, 235-pound two-time All -Canadian league end, veteran Tom Rychlec, Injured but ex pected to be ready early in the season, and East Carolina college's Glenn Bass. Today's cut - d o w n date, when AFL clubs mutt trim to 33 players, is Saban's hope for the addition of a deep pass receiver. "Teams in our league have tradeable players who'll be their last cuts," he says. "We're hoping something will come our way." Guards Get Praise At Oregon State Corvallis - IUPU - Starting guards George Gnoss and Ross Carijga won praise Tuesday as Coach Tommy Protnro sent the Oregon State Beavers through double practice ses sions. The Beavers followed a mild morning session with a more intensive afternoon workout that gave some spec ial attention to punting by quarterback Terry Baker and end Lcn Frketich. Prothro also said he was impressed with Mike Young quist, a senior from Salem just moved from end to tackle.
