(UPI) Clay Fights Jones In Garden Tonight By JACK CUDDY New York-flJPD-Cocky Cas sius Clay will try tonight to put his fast fists where his loud mouth is, for a fourth round knockout over danger ous Doug Jones in jammed Madison Square Garden. The Garden s first sellout crowd in 13 years 18,732 spectators occupying all scats and standing room will watch unbeaten young Clay s attempt to fulfill his daring fourth-round prediction. The gate will approximate $105,000. . ' Twenty-one-year-old Cassi us of Louisville, Ky., the world's second ranking heavy weight, has loudly but suc cessfully pin-pointed in ad vance the exact rounds for 12 of his previous 14 knockouts. And if the "Louisville Lip" can overcome the double Jo nah of shooting for his 13th round- predicted kayo on March 13, he'll certainly be in line for a September shot at the heavyweight crown. Jones Never Kayoed A fourth-round knockout victory for Clay would be notable achievement indeed because his opponent. New Yorker Jones, never has been kayoed in 25 fights against generally better opposition than. Clay faced while Clay clicked off his 17 straight vie tories as a professional. "I can't miss," said Cassius modestly today. And Cassius, the Olympic light heavy' weight champion of 1960, added: "I'm the greatest." The Kentucky contender who garnishes his pugilism with poetry, then slated: "Jones thinks he'll fight some more "But ' he's got to go in four." The belting bard from the bluegrass country is buoyant ly riding a string of nine straight knockouts. And he is favored at 17-5 to beat 26-year-old Jones, who produced the biggest upset of 1962 on last Dec. 15 when he knocked out third-ranked Zora Folley in the seventh round at the Garden. Folley had been a 12-5 favorite. Lost Three Decisions That was Jones' 21st vie tory and 13th knockout in his 25 fights, which included one draw. Doug lost three bouts on decisions to Eddie Ma- chen, light heavy weight champion Harold Johnson in a title fight, and Folley in their first bout at Denver, Colo., Aug. 1, 1962, He also had a draw with Erich Scho- eppner of Germany. Despite Jones greater ex perience against good men Cassius is a long favorite be cause he is the taller, heavier and longer in the reach. Tonight's scheduled 10 rounder will not be televised nor broadcast to homes. It will be sent by closed circuit television to 37 arenas in 33 cities with a total of 150,000 available seats and a possible $500,000 total gate. It also will be sent to home pay-TV stations in Toronto and Hart ford, Conn. MEDFOrlDWrRIBUNB By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-UOT- Manager Ralph Houk flatly predicts the New York Yan kees will win the American league pennant again. "If I didn't feel that way, I should be fired," he claims. I don't think for a minute that winning is going to be easy, but I don't see any club capable of beating us out." This is Houk s third year at the helm of the Yankees and his record is perfect -two pennants and two World Series triumphs. And each spring he has come right out and picked his club to win. I have more reason to be optimistic this spring than last," he said. "Then we had two jobs on the club open -left field and shortstop. Now have only one job open. first base, and we are confi dent we have the player !o fill the bill in Joe Pepitone. We also will have Tony Kubek with us from the start and don't forget we have an other starting pitcher in Stan Williams." with Tresh, Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris; behind the plate with Elston . Howard, Johnny Blanchard and Yogi Berra and in the infield wilh Pepitone, Kubek, Bob Rich ardson and Clctc Boyer. On the bench will be Hector Lo pez, Dale Long, Jack Reed and Phil Linz. Houk refused to pick any one club as the most serious threat to the Yankees. "The Tigers, the Twins, the White Sox. the Orioles, the Angels and the Indians could all be in the race," he reasoned. "And the Red Sox appear stronger, too. If any of those clubs can come up with an outstanding rookie it could change the look of things, but right now I don't see any one of them beating us out." Federal Beats Priestley Quint Seattle - (UPII - Federal Old Line of Seattle won the right to represent the Pacific Northwest in next week's AAU basketball tournament in Denver with a 109-90 vic tory over Priestly Oil of Port land Tuesday night. Bill Hanson with 23 and Dave Mahlman with 21 points led the winners, while Jack Parker hit 22 and Tex White man 20 each for the Portland team. Federal Old Line led 57-39 at the half. Trad Bill Skowron Kubek was in the service for part of last season and rookie Tom Tresh took his job. Then when Kubek Rot out of service Tresh was shifted to left field, where he became a fixture. To get Williams, the Yanks gave up Bill Skowron, their right handed power hitting first baseman. Houk reiterated that the Yankees would not have part ed with Skowron unless they were sure Pepitone could take over at first. Joe will do a better job in the field and I also think he will do the job at the plate," Houk added. "Of course, we will miss Skowron, but we figured we could give him up to get the starting pitcher we needed." He said he wasn t expecting any miracles from Williams. "All we are counting on him for is 14 victories, the same number he scored with the Dodgers last season. Any thing over that would be gravy and, of course, wel come. It would be nice if he could win 20, but we are not expecting him to do it. Williams will be a starter along with Whitey Ford, Ralph Terry and Bill Staf ford. To round out the staff Houk has relievers Marshall Bridges, Luis Arroyo, Bill Kunkel and Roland Sheldon with Bud Daley and Jim Coates his middle inning re lievers and spot starters.
