Pittsburgh - IUPU - Cassius
Clay, the undisputed "champ
of prophesy," sailed home to
Louisville on a cloud today
with a promise to become the
"champ of heavyweights" in
10 months.

third round Thursday night

fight that he would "annihi

round.
Tmmcdiatelv afterward,
matchmaker Teddy Brennan
of Madison Square Garden
announced he will sign ine

with Doug Jones for March
13 in New York.
"I would like to fight Jones
frankpH sixth! .and Billy
Daniels (ranked seventh) on
the same night, Clay con
fidently asserted in his jubi
lant dressing room after ex
tending his unbeaten string
to 17 straight. "In this way,"
he added, "I can make greater
progress."
Drew Heavy Boos
Clay's easy win over the
214-pound Powell drew heavy
hnns from a record local in
door crowd of 11,238 which
paid a gross of $55,782 and a
net of $47,360. Ten per cent
of the net, $4,736, will go to a
fund for families of 37 men
killed in a mine explosion
last month.
Clay said a "hard right
hand" set up Powell for the
kill. The punch which put
him down was a left hook.
The 21-year-old Clay had
little trouble with Powell,
29-year-old from San Diego,
Calif. He danced around the
ring through the first two
rounds, landing stinging jabs
and stright rights almost at
will as Powell chose to stalk
around the center of the can
vas.
Powell said a "flurry of
punches" near the end of the
second round "got me woozy"
and he went down under the
barrage in the third. While
referee Ernie Sesto tolled
eight Powell, on his hands
and knees, attempted to get
to his feet but shook his head
futilely and was counted out.
"I'm the prophet of the
fight game," Clay said later
in his dressing room.
"I'm making history. After
all, I'm calling my rounds and
making them stand up.
Working on Time Table
"I'm working on a time
table," Clay added. "My
schedule is to win the cham
pionship in 10 months. I am
the Louisville Lip. My lips
break records when I move
them." .
Powell blamed a flat-footed
attempt - to land "one big
punch with costing him the
win.

Terry Dill? Jack Bisscgger?
Bob Barrison or Bill Eggers?
They are right up there
close, ready to take over if
the leaders show any signs of
faltering on the overplayed
Harding Park public golf
course.
The greens are so bumpy
the leading professionals re
fuse to even comment on
them. And the lies are so
tight that many of the top
names are playing like dul
fers.
Dill was tied at 68 with
Dick Mayer, the former Na

pion: Charley Sifford, the
Negro golfing king; long-hit
ting Bobby Nichols, and Phil
Rodgers, a 23-year-old rookie
