calpers Do Booming Business
With Patterson-Liston Ducats
By JACK CUDDY
Chicago -iliPli- Ticket scalp
ers were doing a booming
business today in preferred
teats lor the $6 million Floyd
Patlerson-Sonny Liston heavy
weight title fight.
The scalpers were demand
ing and getting $150 a seat
for tickets in the first five
S100 rows, as champion Pat
terson and challenger Liston
prepared to break camp to
night and motor into the city
for their scheduled 15-round
bout Tuesday night.
Meanwhile, a brigade of
workmen .began installing the
Ting and field seats at Comins
key Park.
Tickets for the live closed
circuit television showing of
lhe Floyd Patterson-Sonny-Liston
heavyweight title
bout are "going very rapid
ly." Robert Corbin. Oregon
California theaters manager
here, said this morning. The
fight will be shown at 6:30
p.m. (PST) Tuesday at lhe
Craterian theatre.
Corbin reported thai there
are a number of tickets left.
He stated that he had receiv
ed a number of telephone
requests for tickets this
morning but that reserva
are not being taken by telephone.
A box-office man for Cham
pionship Sports, Inc., the pro
moters, declared angrily, ' I
don't know what we can do
about the scalpers. We posi
tively refused to do any busi
ness with ticket brokers on
this fight. But some of them
apparently sent a lot of stoog
es around early and bought
choice tickets. Now the de
mand for them is terrific."
Rain or Shine
The demand was stepped up
by promoter Al Bolan's an
nouncement that the fight will
be staged Tuesday night "rain
or shine." The weather out
look for the bout is cloudy and
cool, but dry. Bolan issued his
rain-or-shine edict because of
threatening skies today.
"Three weeks ago architect
Lionel Levy of New York,
who laid out the ring set-up
and the seating plan, arranged
for a large tarpaulin to be
placed on rollers above the
ring to protect the fighters in
case of rain," Boland ex
plained. He added with a grin: "How
can we have a postponement
- with more than 35.000 peo
ple expected at the park and
with more than 750,000 ex
pected at close-circuit theaters
throughout this country and
Canada?"
Bolan disclosed that the ad
vance sale for Comiskey Park
had passed the $500,000 mark.
That indicates an ultimate live
gate of more than $600,000, he
said.
Millions From TV
Graff, Reiner and Smith,
Inc. - who own the closed cir
cuit television rights - report
ed that the sale of about 750,
000 seats for at least $4,500,
000 was indicated from thea
ters and other locations in the
United States and Canada.

heavyweight championship of the world.-(UPl).
radio, foreign kinescope, etc.,

writers favored Patterson to
win over Liston, 62-42. Floyd
hopes for an all-time record
purse of $1,700,000.

motor into Chicago tonight in
order to sleep here before go
ing to the weigh-in Tuesday

Ashland Junior quarter
back Doug Olsen led his fired
up Southern Oregon squad to
a 28-0 rout over the Chico
State Wildcats here last Sat
urday evening.
The key factor in the open
ing collegiate football win for
the Raiders was the ability of
the defense to contain the
Chico offense. Defensive cap
tain John Buck seemed to
know just where the Wildcats
would be and when they
would be there. Al Akins,
head coach, praised the pur
suit on the quarterback used
by defensive end Jess Munyon
and a host of other Raiders.
Al Allison, senior quarter
back for the 'Cats, carried the
ball four times and wound up
with a -5-1 yards per carry.
Akins also singled out the de
fensive performance of Doyle
Bransom, senior halfback and
defensive safety. Bransom, a
tremendously fast offensive
back, is sacrificing his offens
ive prowess to help the defens
ive secondary,
Olsen to Hughes
Southern Oregon's first
score came with 2:26 left in
the first period on an eight
yard pass from Olsen to Dave
Hughes. Chico State was forc
ed to punt and the Redmen
took over on their own fifteen
yard line. Kerm Bennett, on a
quick opener, scooted 15 yards
to the Southern Oregon 30 and
another Raider first down.
Then an Olsen to Howard
Hartman pass netted 16 yards
and the Raiders had another
first down on their own 46.
With the ball on the Chico
47, and a fourth and eight sit
uation, freshman fullback
Denny Ellis faked a punt and
ran around left end for 23
yards and a first down. Three
plays later the Raiders scored,
capping a drive of 85 yards in
10 plays.
Early in the second period,
Chico punter George Calkins
netted only 15 yards on a
purit and the Raiders took ov
er on the "Cat 35. An Olsen to
Hartman pass netted 10 yards
and a first down. Mike Grim
es, on a quick opener picked
up four to the 21 yard stripe.
Then the Olsen to Hughes
combination hit again, this
time for 21 yards and a touch
down. Olsen again kicked the
point after and SOC went
ahead 14-0 with 10:47 left in
the half.
Bennett Scores
On a fourth down play, Cal
kins punted from his own 25
to the Raider 45 where Bran
som received the ball and ran
it back for 10 yards to the
Chico 45. Seven plays later,
Bennett went over from the
one yard stripe. Olsen again
kicked the point after and the
Raiders had a 21-0 lead at the
half.
Southern Oregon's last score
came on a ten yard pass from
Olsen to Hartman. The drive
started on the Raider 24 yard
stripe. The Olsen to Hartman
combination netted 38 yards
on three pass plays in the
i drive.
Coach George Maderos' out
classed squad only threatened
once in the encounter. The
'Cats were never inside the
Raider 30 yard line. The only
threat came on an Allison to
Ed Burton pass from the SOC
37, which Burton dropped in
the end rone.
Olsen completed 19 of 23
passes for 195 yards and
three touchdowns. The Raid
ers travel to Portland next
Friday and will meet Lewis
and Clark Saturday at 1:30
p.m.

Central Point Reynolds
High school's Lancers, gaining
well on off-tackle and reverse
plays and controlling the ball,
overcame the Crater Comets
of Central Point on Saturday
night in a non-league football
game played at Troutdale.
Crater held a 14 to 13 lead
with 40 seconds left in the
second quarter but the Lan
cers were on top by halftime
at 20 to 14. Third quarter
score was 26 to 14. In the
first period the clubs battled
to a 7-each knot.
Mike Glincs, who missed
the Crater season opener be
cause of illness, threw passes
for all three Comet touch
downs. He hit Paul 'Bransom
for 27 yards, Joe McCalvy for
14 yards and to Darryl Sum
merfield for 23 and the scores.
Glines ran two extra points
and passed to Bransom for
another.
Whitehead Scores
Whitehead ran 17 yards for
the first Reynolds touchdown
and Ron Dappen toed the first
of three conversion points.
Crater responded with the
Glines to Bransom TD throw
Kitchen went the last yard
for the second Lancer TD to
cap a 66 yard drive that gave
his club a 13 to 7 edge. The
Comets came back again after
Gary Wald recovered a Reyn
olds fumble. The Glines to
McCalvy pass paid off and
Glines ran his second bonus
for the Crater lead.
Reynolds capitalized on a
Summerfield fumble on the
Crater 23-yard line to go
ahead for good. Gary Thomp
son cracked over from the
one.
75-Yard Driv.
The Troutdale club widen-
ed the gap on a 75-yard drive.
It pushed to midfield on the
ground then opened through
the air. A 35-yard pass play
put the ball on the 15 stripe.
