But owner Rex Ellsworth knew that the build up for the race had gone so far that he didn't want to call it off. "Swaps not only is the fastest horse running this year." says William McMorris, veteran dock er, "but possibly the fastest I've ever seen, and that includes Cita tion." Kay Bell, former wrestling star, has turned his histrionic abilities to Hollywood and was one of the extras in the filming of "The Ten Commandments." He currently is working at Bay Meadows race track.

While papa Harvey Knox is de manding that Coach Red Sanders let his son, Ronnie, call signals when he is at quarterback for UCLA's Bruins, there are some who figure the highly touted for mer prep star will do most of his playing this year sitting on the bench. Meanwhile, the Bruins are going serenely ahead preparing to de fend their national championship with coach Sanders aiming only for the Pacific Coast Conference title and a bid to the Rose Bowl. While last year he pointed at the national crown, this year all he wants is the New Year's Day bid, and possible revenge against the Big Ten representative.

Valdes Tops Cockell, Asks For Title Tiff LONDON Big Nino Valdes of Cuba today began clamoring in earnest for a chance at the heavy weight title. "I've waited long enough for a go at Rocky Marciano," he said, "but maybe my victory over Don Cockell wil convince everyone I deserve a chance at the champion ship. If Cockell got one, I certainly earned It." Valdes stopped Cockell after the third round in a scheduled 10 last night. The pudgy Englishman's handlers called on the referee to halt the fight. When Cockell stag gered to his corner after the third, he was gushing blood from a cut on the forehead. Valdes knocked down Cockell. who was put away by Marciano earlier in the year, tor a count of eight in the third round wilh a short left and a cross to the face. Cockell came back with a left to the face when he got on his feet, but Valdes. with a reach advan tage of lo inches, merely shook it olf. "I knew Cockell would atlack from the start," said Valdes. "So my plan was to get the range of him in the first round. After that I went to work on him. "My policy from now is to be a killer. Unless I finish my man off decisively, no one ever will believe I can be champion." Valdes weighed 207, Cockell 216. Twinks Win ( Playoff Tilt From Anqels LOS ANGELES (.41 Arthoutrh Los Angeles, red hot in the late stages of the Pacific Coast League pennant race, was favored bD beat Hollywood in their tliree-of-flve playoff series for third place, the Stars won the first game Tuesday night. 5-2.

Little Dick Smith, Hollywood shol'tstop who hadn't hit a home run in two years, smashed one out oC Wrigley Field in the fifth inning. : Munger had a shutout g oing un til the seventh, but the Angels struck suddenly and Ri'd found himself batted out of tbc box for only the second time this year. Gene Mauch, Angel second base man, hit a scorching double that scored Bob Coats and Eiolly Drake. Manager Bobby Bmgan called In lefty Rog Bowman to pitch to Gale Wade, a left-hand batter, and Bowman struck him out. Bragan then summoned Joe Trimble, a right-hander, who got the danger ous Steve Bilko to fly out and end the threat. Michigan State says it is looking for a "take charge guy" for its football team.

Tony DeMarco Favored Over Vejar Tonight BOSTON !fl Tony Dcmarco, former welterweight kmcr, was lavored to defeat Chico Vejar in their nationally-televised 10-round fight Wednesday night on the strength of his superior hitting power and a body attack tailored to his opponent's vulnerable mid section. The odds on Demarco, from the north end of Boston, range from 8-to-5 to 2-to-l with the winner ot the Boston Garden feature expect ed to pet a title shot at welter i champion Carmen Basilio. Demarco won the championship in this ring April 1 from Johnny Saxton but lost it to Basilio June 10 in Syracuse, It will be his first appearance since then. Some observers felt that De marco lost to Basilio partly be cause he tried too hard for a knock out alter' .statiserinp the New York er on several occasions, forgot his balanced attack plan una wound up the victim of a TKO. Archie Moore, with an impres sive 144 bout raig record, has hU sights set on the heavyweight title and will be in there slinging to take it from heavyweight champ Rocky Marciano when (hey meet in New York's Yankee Stadium on Tuesday. September 20. Exclusive, ly on radio, the Murcianc-Moore Blue Ribbon championshin bout will be broadcast blow-by-blow direct from Yankee Stadium Just as it's happening, starting at 6:30 (PST). p.m. on KFLW and the ABC radio network. Light-heavyweitfht champ Archie Moore was born In Collinr;wbod, Illinois on December 13, 01G. As far back as he can remember, he was a boxing fan and he laced on his first pair of gloves when he was only 10 years old. Certain that he wanted a boxing career, Archie would work out with a finlKer by tiie name of Kid Joan son. T'.ie fishier liked Archie's spirit and found it difficult to fend off the punches thrown by his hard fihi?qing pupil. Aiier graduating from grade school Archie went to Vaslion High School. When he was 16 be decided that box inc. not hlh school, was his f;rte and he left cchool for a boxing crrccr. Deeem'wr t arms to bo a fateful monM ia the. hie and career of the lb.ht heavyweight champ. Ar chie had his firr.t prcfessiynal fight in December of 1030. Alter 1G years as a professional. Moore - who was born in De cember - got his chance at his first title in December ol 1952. winning the 1 1 g h t-heavywclght championship from Joey Maxim. From 1936 to 1940 he cut quite a swath through boxing circles but couldn't get a bout that meant big money. Unable to make a go of it in the United States he went to Australia for what were sup posed to be two fights, lie stayed I for seven and beanie a tremen-1 dous favorite with Down Under boxing fans. 1 Upon his return from his Aus- tralian triumphs fights were still hard to come by. Then, early in 1941 adversity struck. Archie Moore learned that he had per- j f orated ulcers, and while in the ! hospital his weight dropped from j over 1C0 pounds to less than 100. 1 With determination and hard work, two outstanding character istics of the Mnore personality, he slowly built himself up and re turned to the ring where he went on to new triumphs. From 1942 to 1944, Moore was a winning fighter and he tried to get a fight in New York, the cen. ler of the b axing world. Try as he could. Moore couldn't connect un til, by coincidence or luck, De cember of 1944. when he fought at St. Wick's in New York. Archie Moore Is unlike other fighters who will give their place of birth after their name. Moore will not. After fighting for the first time -in New York he traveled around the country. One afternoon he would be in Boston, and at night m another city fighting to pick up $150 to $500. Toledo. San Diego, Miami. Balti more and other places became his second home. Even today Archie Moore rides around in a station wagon emblazoned with the sign, "Archie Moore Enterprises" and then lists St. Louis. San Diego, Toledo. Miami and New York after his name. The Archie Moore Enterprises inclrdc Lucky Thompson and his band, a drive-in hamburger stand in San Dieo. and a planned sports center in Toledo as well as' song writing ventures. Archie, who has had a song about, his career pub lished, is also writing a book. Moore has made four successful defenses of his lh;ht heavyweight ti"e. Il's fht rr'cori cerri-'.s cf 144 bouts: 1-0 wins, 19 losses and 5 draws. Eighty two of hts victories were by knockout. The last time Archie Moore lost a fight was in 1951. The month December, of course. SAN JOSE, Calif. Tanny Cumpo, 1 15 b, Philippines, out pointed Memo Dicz, 114, Mexico, 10. DETROIT Yam a Bahama, 153, Bahamas, stopped Hector Pe ralta. 149, Dayton, Ohio, 2. Cisco Andrade, 25-year-old light weitfhl. won his first 28 fights. Then he lost to Ralph Dupas in New Orleans.
