Floyd KOs Overlooked By Liston By JACK CUDDY UPI Sports Writer Aurora, 111. - iUPIi - When Sonny Liston scoffed today at Floyd Patterson's lack of "speed" in belting out oppon ents, apparently challenger Liston did not know that he and Floyd had each scored 19 kayoes within five rounds. And a knockout within five rounds is Sonny's conception of speed because that's the time area he allots for cham pion Floyd's destruction Tues day night in their heavy weight title fight at Chicago's Comiskey Park. The burly challenger be came incensed when a sports writer mentioned Patterson's speed during a news confer ence here in Sonny's training camp at the abandoned Au rora Downs racetrack. Questioning the champion's speed, with a sneer, Sonny demanded: "What did he do: Did he catch a bullet with his hand-or something?" A check of their records dis closed that Sonny had 19 kayoes within five rounds among his total of 23 knock outs while winning 33 of his : 34 bouts. Patterson achieved 1 19 knockouts within five frames among his total of 29 kayoes while winning 38 of . his 40 starts. Jack Nilon, Sonny's advisor, criticized Patterson and Championship Sports Inc., for giving Sonny only 121-2 per cent of the fight's net pro ceeds. He said, "Patterson could have prevented the un-i fair deal if he d wanted to. . Nilon declared: "They've given us the short end of everything and now we ask only for gloves that will fit Sonny Tuesday night." The Illinois state athletic commission was expected to decide today or Friday wheth er Liston could use the Chicago-made gloves that he wanted despite Patterson's ob jection to them because of alleged lack of padding.

Washington Pick of Experts To Win Big 6 Championship (Thii is another in a aerie. of dispatches dealing with the prospects of 1962 West Coast college football teams.) By HAL WOOD Seattle, Wash. tUPD Wash ington is the pick of the ex perts to win the Big Six cham pionship this year and go to the Rose Bowl for the third time in the past four years And even Coach Jim Owens of the Huskies can't argue with the selection. "I think USC and Stanford rate right at the top," says Owens. "But we'll be in there some place." Owens has to admit he can't single out any one spot where the Huskies are partic- SECTION D PAGES 1 to 10 MEDFORDii!&TRIBUNB SIPdDMTS MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1962 ularly weak. Many observers believe that the quarterback situation is the key to any lack of success Washington may run into. "Pete Ohler is our starting quarterback against Purdue on Saturday," said Owens. "He is a good man. And so are Bill Silcr and Bill Doug las. But I don't think they stack up with the top two quarterbacks on other Big Six teams." The Huskies have a team of veterans ready for the cam paign. But their line will av erage only about 200 pounds per man. "That means we'll have to do a bit more passing than usual," says the coach. "Last year we called the pass-run option play about 16 times per game. This year I would guess we'd call it 20 times - and more, if we arc successful with it." In the backficld with the quarterback will be a lot of speed, headed by Charley Mitchel and Nat Whitmycr at left half; Martin Wyatt and Jim Stiger at right half, and Bob Monroe and Junior Cof fey at fullback. "I'd have to rate Mitchell as the best all-round back in the Big Six right now," says the soft-spoken Owens. "He is a fine ball packer-and he is a great man playing safety. And Whitmyer isn't far back of him." nmcnell was injured most of last year. But this season he is in tip-top shape and must be rated not only as the best, but possibly the fastest, back in the West. Works Six Teams While most of the Pacific Coast teams have trouble rounding up enough good men to make three full teams, Owens still was working out six teams right up to the opening of the schedule. There are still 82 men on the squad. With such strong talent, there is a jam on in Seattle to purchase season tickets for the 55,000-seat stadium. Al ready there have been 33,000 ducats sold, with the students buying another 10,000. The Purdue game already has been sold out. Following Purdue on the schedule are Illinois. Kansas State, Oregon State, Stanford, Oregon. Southern California, (California, UCLA and Wash ington State. To tackle this tough sched ule Owens has two or three lettcrmen available for every spot in the line with the ex ception of center, where the gre at Ray Mansfield holds forth. The starling forward wall will have Ary Clark and Duane Locknane at ends; Rod Scheyer and Mike Briggs at tackles: Dave Phillips and Rick Sorlun at guards.

I. il'PIi Gretel and Weatherely went sailing again today for the America's Cup-and the Australians were confident they will win the series if they led home Weath crly in the third race. The United States hasn't surrendered the silver cup of yachting supremacy since it won the first series 111 years ago. In fact, when this latest renewal opened last Saturday, some experts were wagering that Weatherly would win in four straight races. That bold prediction looked Redman is pushing Phillips, a two-year veteran, for his job. good when Bus Mosbacher's defender won the first race in a finish that seemed over whelming. Then Gretel came back Tuesday to gain a thrill ing homestretch victory by 150 yards and deadlock the best-of-seven series. The win was the first by a challenger in 28 years. Now it's developed into a real "horse race."
