That's when he screams and goes berserk. It's obvious that his fight career, a good one that took him near the top of his pro fession, is all over. He'll be dropped from his ranking as the No. 1 challenger for the world heavyweight boxing title. There's no chance he'll ever be allowed in the ring again no more than there's a chance that Alejandro Lavorante, who has been in a coma in a Los Angeles hospital for many weeks after a beating in the ring, ever will be allowed to don gloves again. Today he Is broke, has no future in his chosen work, and has very little education. He has a wife and three chil dren to support. So, who's to blame? No one in particular. But many in general. Let's go back to Eddie's earlier years. Machen was brought up in the bustling little city of Red ding in Northern California. From the years he was old enough to roam the streets he was in trouble with the law. He received most of his edu cation in correctional institu tions. He learned a little about the art ot boxing there, and then came to the "big city" to make a career of it. Manager Sid Flaherty saw him work ing out in a gymnasium and took Eddie under his wing in 1955. Machen won his first 24 fights in a row-thc first 10 of these by knockouts. Sixteen of the 24 wins were via the kayo route. Eddie was on his way. Couldn't Handle Money Machen wasn't making big money. But Eddie wasn't used to handling even the kind of money he was making. He was broke or nearly so mos-t of the time. In his 25th fight he was held to a draw by Zora Folley; and in his 26tn, when he was a top challenger for the heavyweight crown, he was knocked out in the first round by a Swede named Ingemar Johansson. What money Eddie had earned in that bout was spent this time trying to get Johans son to live up to the contract for a return fight. But it didn't work and Machen was broke again. He climbed wearily back into the ring and won seven more in a row in 1U5B before losing a decision to J'olley at the siart of 196U. He met Sonny Liston in the fall of that year in Seattle ana lost a decision in 12 rounds. He lought, and lost, to light - heavyweight champion Harold Johnson-his only loss in 1961. He plugged away with wins over Mike DcJohn and Doug Jones among others in 1961. Hut tntse were small time bouts, in which the big gest fee usually was the S4.UO0 trom television. However, h i s dclensivc style was unpopular and the TV people didn't want him for bouts in 1962. He had an arm injury and couldn't get a fight, although Flaherty says now that he did have a good chance for a return go with Liston, now the champion. Meanwhile, the expenses kept going and the income was nil. The hangers-on who were friends when he was winning and in the chips, now disappeared when he came around. They weren't about to pay back money he had loaned them. With his fighting future bleak, with not enough money to pay the bills for his growing family, Eddie finally cracked. He borrowed a car in which there was a pistol. He wrote a suicide note and was contemplating ending it all when he was saved by po lice. Basketball FRIDAY CO 1. 1.

(Price Includes labor and only parts listed.) FORD 6't Crater Lake Between 6th I Main on MEDFORD dison Square Garden Thirty-three year-old Mims of Washington, DC, accepted the 10-round bout at 3 p.m. Saturday. Although an under dog at 4-1, he gave the knock out specialist from Palerson, N.J., one of the hardest fights of 25-year-old Carter's brief professional career. Carter, who had knocked out contender Florentine Fer nandez of Cuba at 1:09 of the first round in the same Gar den ring on Oct. 27, could not tag rugged Mims with the first kayo of his career to night. Instead, Mims weighing 160;14 pounds to Carter's 1551,4 floored Rubin with a right to the chin in the fourth round. Driven to one knee. Carter was up at the count of one and took the rest of the mandatory eight-count on his feet. That was the only knockdown of the bout, in which Mims who never had been floored in his career had his knees buckled by left hooks and hard rights in the first, third, eighth and ninth rounds. A left hook to the face in the sixth session, brought blood to Mims' nose.
