(Landis Photo) SPORTS Dowries Defeats Moyer; Bout Stopped in Ninth Wembley, England - lUPl) Terry Downes had lots of kind words to say about Phil Moyer today, but Moyer was not as complimentary about his English conqueror. Downes gave Moyer a thor ough thrashing in their mid dleweight fight Tuesday night and was on the offensive most of the way before referee Jack Hart stopped the bout at 30 seconds of the ninth round. Moyer, of Portland, Ore., had a bad cut just under the right eyebrow and another under his chin. Referring to his opponent as "a very tough egg indeed," Downes added: "I hit him hard with lefts and rights in almost every round and he hardly staggered.

Kilpatrick, Chicago 4t way, but there wasn t much else anybody could do." However, the sentiments weren't as pure in Moyer's camp. John Gamble, the American's business partner and fight adviser, accused Downes of using butting tac tics during the scheduled 10 round bout. Going To Protest "We are going to protest to Harry Levene (the promoter) and your boxing commission about excessive butting," Gamble told newsmen after the fight. "All the cuts were caused by butting." Downes, at 164, fought at the heaviest weight of his ca reer. Moyer weighed 165 pounds. Downes used a ramrod left to force the fight. It was a left which caught Moyer just under the right eyebrow in the seventh round. Downes caught the American on the wound with a ripping right left combination and it ap peared just a question of time before the fight was stopped. The UPI card gave Downes six rounds against one for Moyer with one even. Moyer appeared to freeze for periods in each round and the 26-year-old Londoner clobbered him constantly with lefts and rights. There were no knockdowns. It was Downes' 31st win in 39 fights. Moyer, 24, now has 30 victories, seven defeats and one draw. Downes got $20,000 and Moyer $12,000 from the $70,000 paid by a capacity crowd of 14,000.

W NCAA, AAU In Preliminary Agreement for Coalition C 3 By TIM MORIARTY Now York tL'PI The inter cession of Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy and a new "spirit of cooperation" on both sides was credited today with tne formation of a track and field coalition by the nation's two major amateur sports organi zations. Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson, president of the U.S. Olympic committee, jumped with glee Tuesday when the National Collegiate Athletic associa tion (NCAA) and the Amateur Athletic union (AAU) settled their 2'i year "war" for con trol of track and field in the nation. "This is the first time both sides sat down in a spirit of cooperation to work this thing out," said Wilson. "I am very optimistic for the first time at having all groups interested m track and field working through their own organiza tions toward a common goal and doing a job that needs to be done for the Olympic ef fort." "This unity," Wilson prom ised, "will provide the great est track and field develop ment we've ever had." Lauds Kennedy The Olympic chief then turned his attention to Ken nedy, saying he was "deeply indebted" to the attorney gen eral "for the contributions he made at these meetings." Kennedy set up a "truce" conference for the NCAA and AAU officials at Washington last month and then appeared at another meeting between tile groups here Monday night. The attorney general reportedly walked into Mon day night's conference, whip ped off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and remarked: "Lot's get this feud settled here and now." Kennedy's prodding had a definite effect on the dispu tants. Although they adjourned Tuesday morning at 2 a.m. after 15 hours of constant de bating, they acted fast when they re - convened Tuesday afternoon and finally agreed to a coalition. An AAU official said that henceforth his group will sanction all open track meeis, which means that athletes will be able to compete in cham pionships during the forthcom ing indoor track season with out danger of expulsion from either organization. This opinion was shared by Walter Byers, executive direc tor of the NCAA, who said, "According to our prelimin ary agreement, the indoor track meets will have no problems." Wilson's statement announc ing the track and field coali tion read: "A preliminary agreement has been reached by the par lies involved on a proposal to set up a track and field coali tion embracing all qualified organizations. The proposal is subject to ratification by the organizations involved. "All these organizations will proceed with their pro grams, which will be co-ordinated under the proposed coa litiun. The details are to bo worked out and will be an nounced later." Milt Bruhn Gets UPI's Citation By GENE W. HINTZ Madison, Wis. - IliPH - Per sonable Milt Bruhn claims he had his easiest - and yet his roughest - week last week preparing his Wisconsin uni versity football team for their encounter with top - ranked Northwestern. Perhaps that paradox ex plains whey the seven - year coach was named college foot ball's "Coach of the Week" to day by United Press Interna tional after his team had routed the previously unbeat en Wildcats, 37-6.. "It was probably the easiest week I had getting the boys ready," Bruhn chuckled after the game. "But I did have a few sleepless nights wonder ing what Tom Myers was going to do with our defense." Bruhn needn't have wor ried. Defensive halfbacks Jim Nettles and Bill Smith and a hard-charging line took care of that as the Badgers moved into a tie for the Big Ten lead and left Wisconsin and Min nesota as the teams most like ly to go to the Rose Bowl. The two teams meet here Nov. 24 in the final game of the sea son. Bruhn said the Wildcats' No. 1 ranking helped in get ting his team ready, but the big thing was having nearly his whole team ready physi cally to play. "I could sense Monday our Boye were ready to play a ball game. They didn't take much coaching," he said. "But the big thing was having Nettles, Smith, Gary Kroner and Lou Holland ready and recovered from injuries." Kroner scored 19 points on two touchdowns, a 38 - yard field goal and four extra points. Holland added 18 on three touchdowns. Bruhn was the reluctant hero of what was probably his most satisfying day since tak ing over the reins at Wiscon sin. He preferred instead io lavish praise on scout Fred Marsh, who watched the Wild cats in the win over Indiana, and quarterback Ron Vander kclcn, who threw three touch down passes. "This was Vandy's game," Bruhn said. The senior from Green Bay, Wis., outshone Myers, highly touted as an All-America this year, by picking up 181 yards passing and adding 28 on the ground. Moore, Clay Taper for Bout- Los Angeles - (ITU - Heavy weights Archie Moore and Cassius Clay today restricted their preparations for Thurs day night's elimination bout to light loosening up drills. Both fighters tapered off Tuesday in their training rou tines but still held limited sparring activity. It was reported that heavy, weight champion Sonny Lis ton would arrive Thursday in time for the bout, and Liston's manager. Jack Iifilon, was ex pected to arrive today. DRILL "ON DEFENSE Eugene, Ore. - il'Pli - The University of Oregon Ducks drilled on defense today as they geared for Saturday's excursion into the Big Ten when they face Ohio State. Coach Len Casanova of the llth-ranked Ducks said that his troops would have to stop the Ohio Slate offense to beat them.
