ST. LOUIS (UPI) - Someone
jokingly asked coach Wally
Lemm of the St. Louis Cardi
nals if he planned to insure
Charley Johnson's right arm
with Lloyds of London.
Lemm leveled a glare at the
joker.
"Johnson is very valuable,"
he said of his 23-year-old quar
terback. Considering the fact
thatstar running back John David
Crow has been knocked out of

MILAN. Italy (UP) - Blond
Sandro Mazzinghi of Italy, new
world junior middleweight
champion, was considering to
day whether to give angry
Ralph Dupas of New Orleans
a chance to recapture the 154
pound crown.
Mazzinghi, 24, won the title
from Dupas Saturday night on
a ninth-round knockout before
10,000 at the outdoor Vigorelli
Velodrome.
It was a major upset because
Mazzinghi was little known out
side Italy and was unranked
among the top 10 contenders.
Dupas, 28, was favored at 2-1
in the betting.
They fought in a light drizzle.
Dupas, weighing 152'2 pounds
to Sandro's 153, slipped in the
first round and fell out of the
ring. He was floored by a left
hook in the second round and
by a short right in the ninth.
Rose at Eight
When Dupas rose at "eight"
in the ninth, he staggered help
lessly backwards against the
ropes. Referee Rudolph Neuhold
of Switzerland continued the
count to "10 and out." It was
the first time in any world title
fight that a boxer had been
counted out on his feet.
In title bouts, down through
the years, when a boxer appear
ed helpless on his feet, it was
the custom for the referee to
"stop" the fight usually after
a gesture of agreement from the
ring physician and award the
winner a "technical knockout."
Because of referee Newhold's
new safety kayo change, Dupas
angrily declared he had been the
victim of a "madman" referee's
"illegal ruling," and he demand
ed a return title fight. Late Sun
day Dupas flew to Australia to
keep in shape by boxing there,

action by a knee injury for at
least the first three games of
the season, Lemm s comment
was the understatement of the
month.
Injuries and fumbles
ruined the Cards in 1962. And
here Lemm's key ball carrier
is sidelined even before the
start of this season.
"We're glad Crow didn't need
an operation," Lemm said, "be
cause that means he will be
back sooner. But there is still
no telling how the knee will
hold up in competition."
Fair-haired Boy
Johnson is the fair-haired boy
of the Cardinals. He came off
the bench in the fourth game of
last season and set club records
for pass completions (150) and
passing yardage (2,440).
Behind him is Buddy Humph
rey, who has replaced Sam
Etchoverry as No. 2 man. Etch
everry asked for his release
during pre-season training be
cause he wanted a starting job
and felt he could do better else
where. While Crow is out of action,
the rushing load will fall on
Prentice Gautt and Joe Child
ress. With Sonny Randle and Bobby
Joe Conrad as Johnson's prime
receivers, the Cards again
should have a strong passing at
tack. Randle and Conrad were
ranked second and third among
National Football League pass
catchers last season.
Lemm realizes his rushers
will have to hold on to the ball
better than last season when
they fumbled 31 times. Crow
fumbled 14 times.
Rookies Look Good
Rookies have been a source
of joy to Lemm. Don Brymm
of Purdue has won a defensive
end post and Larry Stallings of
Georgia Tech is another good
bet at linebacker. Lemm is also
pleased . with his first draft
choice, defensive back Jerry
Stovall of LSU; flanker Jackie
Smith of Northeast Louisiana,
tackle Sam Silas of Southern
Illinois, fullback Bill (Thunder)
Thornton of Nebraska and flank
er Billy Gambrell, who was
signed as a free agent from
South Carolina.
Another source of pleasure to
Lemm has been the comeback
of Fate Echols at defensive
tackle. Echols was the first
draft choice in 1962 but he was
temporarily cut from the team
because of overweight and slow
ness. This year a slimmer Ech
ols is giving Don Owens a battle
for the starting position.
The defensive backfield will
be composed of veterans with
rookies pushing at every posi
tion. The starters arc Hill, Lar
ry Wilson and an ex-Green Bay
Packer, John Symank.
Starter Bill Stacy sustained
a fractured check-bone in Satur
day's exhibition game against
the Minnesota Vikings, and doc
tors said he will be lost to the
team for one month.
Lemm, in summing up his
chances, said, "We think we
have a good ball club. Our goal
is the division championship and
that's all we talk about."
"If only we can stop fumbling
and stay healthy," he added.

Nicklaus did it again.
It was, he said, "my five
iron on theh 13th hole which
did the job" the job being
the $50,000 first place money
in the World Series of Golf.
It was the second year in a
row that burly Jack came up
with the biggest golf purse of
the year.
He shot a final round 35-35
70 Sunday, matching par for
the 7,165-yard Firestone Coun
try club course. That gave him
a total of 140 even par for
theh two rounds.
Victor By Stroke
It was one stroke better than
Julius Boros wound up with.
He had a final round 37-3269,
but his late charge left him one
shot behind Nicklaus with a
total of 141.
Arnold Palmer, suffering from
a painful right shoulder, wound
up with a 36-3672 for 143. Bob
Charles, the New Zealand left
hander who won the British
Open, finished last with a 147,
taking a 77 in the final round.
On the key 13th, a par-four

with a double bogey six.

Defense Highlights Bruin
ASHLAND "Defense did too
good a job," said Ashland High
Football Coach John Gray in
looking back on the Grizzlies in
trasquad engagement Saturday
night.
Gray had divided the Bruins
into crews of apparent equal abil
ity. And, that's the way it work
ed out. The tussle was a score
less stalemate.
The head mentor, who watch
ed from the stands while assis
tants Bill Lcybold and George
Kcil handled the teams, was
'well pleased" with the tack
ling, pursuit and rotation of the
players but said, "we re going
to have to work some more on
offense."
Both teams used standard
defense and did a pretty good
job stopping our offense. We're
going to have to work on out
blocking more," Gray remark
ed.
Need Passing Work
He said also that the Griz
zlies will have to spend some
more time on their passing. The
Ashlandcrs have good passers
in Dave Bargcr and Dave Loh
man but receivers have trouble
hanging on to the ball.
Gray was impressed by the
mobility of tackle Jack Gruber
on defense and by the lincback
ing of Don Scholer. Roger Ath
erton and Mike Torresan did
good jobs as opposing right half
backs. While defense held of
fense mostly to two or three
yard gains, each broke away
for a run of about 40 yards.
Some fine running and block
ing was turned in by Dennis
Ekwall at left half.
Both teams looked just about
the same, according to Gray,
who termed the game "real
interesting." He said the kick
ing game was "real smooth.'
Three periods of 20 minutes
each were played
Gray said that the grizzlies
will practice at 7:30 o'clock this
evening and go to alternoon
drills on Tuesday in prepara
tion for the Friday opener at
Ashland against Shasta high of
