Hurricane
Blows Out
Ring Meet
" NEW YORK Ml The heavy
weight championship tight between
Titleholder Rocky Marciano and
challenger Archie Moore was post
poned Tuesday because of Hurrl
' cane lone.
Weather permitting, the- 15-round
bout will be held Wednesday night
in the Yankee Stadium. If weather
conditions still are unsuitable, it
will be held Thursday.
t Postponements are nothing new
for Marciano. His second fight with
EsEard Charles was set back twice
by rain last September. Then
Rocky knocked out Charles in the
eighth round.
The announcement of the post
ponement came In a terse state
ment from Jim Norris, president of
the International Boxing Club.
He said the fight was postponed
"for 24 hours.
Meanwhile, the New York
meteorologist said the hurricane
would hit the city only a glancing
blow and Were snould be clear
iiig weatner by late afternoon.
Ernest J. Christie said the brunt
of the storm would pass well east
of the city, with some rain and
high winds here but not the full
force originally expected.
Harby Markson, managing di
rector of tile IBC, said, "the fore
cast for Weanesday is grand. Tues
day night's expectations were wav
ering, and we felt we couldn't take
a cuance on waiting it out.,
The postponement means that
the bout Wednesday night will
start U:45 p.m. (EST), 15 minutes
later than originally scheduled,
. rtw reason is that the IBC is
committed to another television
network light in Miami between
middlewcig'.its Bobby Dykes and
George Johnson, starting at
p.m. 'EST).
The over-riding reason for the
postponement, despite forecasts of
clearing later Tuesday evening,
was the matter oi tne gate.
Markson said, the advance sale
of tickets already approaches $670,
000 but he expected $150,000 addi
tional at the gate with good weath
er. '
Norris said also that he felt it
would be unfair to out-of-town Jans
not to make an early decision in
view oi the uncertain conditions.
He. said, even in case of clear
ing, tine stadium would be uncom
fortable for spectators, with
grounds muddy and seats wet.
EUGENE, Ore. I.fl Coach Len
Casanova said Tuesday his Ore
gon Ducks will concentrate on de
fense and nassing in drills this
week for Saturday's game at Los
Angeles with Southern 'California.
After showing movies of last
week's 14-13 win over Utah. Casa-
nova told the team they would
have to make fewer mistakes
(gainst the Trojans "If we are go
ing to give trnni a ball game."
SEATTLE lH Coach Johnny
ulars off with a light signal drill
Monday while players who rode
the bench in Saturdry's clash with
Idaho bumped heads in a rough
scrimmage.
Quarterback Sandy Lederman,
who missed the Idaho game be
cause of a hip Injury, sparked the
reserves in the scrimmage.
Washington tackles Minnesota
next Saturday. .
CORVALLlS. Ore. Ml The
.Oregon State football team looked
good in its 33-0 shellacking i
Brigham Young Saturday but
"far from a finished product,
Coach Tommy Prothro said Mon-
aay.
The coach scheduled a series of
long workouts in preparation for
next weekend's game at Portland
wnn Stanford.
Tailback Joe Francis, who
gained 95 yards for OSC against

Hill Reports
UCLA Tougher
Than '54 Team
LOS ANGELES (UP) A rival
coach says he considers the cur
rent UCLA football team it be
potentially stronger than the Bruin
club which won the 1954 national
championship. ' ''
Coach Jess Hill of the University
of Southern California lavishly
praised tne Bruins yesterday while
addressing a football writers lunch
eon meeting. :
"UCLA has power and speed."
said Hill. "Ronnie Knox can throw
and he can run and they have fine
receivers and a good line up front.
While I wouldn't say the Bruins
look as strong at this stage as
tney aid last year, their potential
looks greater." ....
Hill predicted UCLA would beat
Maryland Saturday "In a walk."
ucla coacn Henry (Red) sand-,
ere, however, was not so outspok
en regarding the game in College
Park, Md., against the strong
Terps, who encountered unexpect
ed difficulty in beating Missouri
13-12 In their opener.
"My scouts thought that Mary
land looked a little tired while the
Missouri ball carriers looked as
good as Tatum's." Sanders said.
"I have the proper respect for
Tatum and his players that their
record calls for."
Sanders cautiously praised Knox,
who threw three touchdown pass
es In the Bruins' 21-0 win over Tex
as A k M.
"Knox," said Sanders,., "gained
enough ground to Justify respect."
The coach then said UCLA will
rely more on passing this season
than in 1954.
Hill said his Trojans , "had a
lot of breaks" in their 50-12 rout
of Washington State.
"Washington State wasn't as
tough as we expected, but even at
that we didn't run roughshod over
them," he said. "Jon Arnett
played an excellent game for the
first of the season and our soph
omore second-string fullback, C.
R. Roberts, showed tremendous
possibilities for so early."

'55 To Be
Last Year
For Halas
By ED 8AINSBURY
United Press Sports Writer
CHICAGO (UP) George Halas,
the dean of National Football
League coacnes, would like to
mark his last active campaign by
guiding his Chicago Bears to tht)
1SS5 championship.
But his announced aim Is second
That's where his Bears finished
last year. Halas, who also owns
the Bears, says 1955 will be his
last season as head coach.
"Let Detroit, San Francisco. Lns
Angeles and Green Bay play for
the (division) championship," Ha
las said. "We'll Just go for second
place and if they knock each other
out of it and we can win, that's
all right, too.
FOUR CLUBS
I'm not deolarlnz Baltimore
(tile other Western Division club)
out of it, because that's a good
club. Bui the other four figure
to play for the title. -"1
figure us to finish second this
year, and I'm going to leave a
team that can win the champion
ship." Tne 1954 Bears were weakest on
defense Halas believes he has Im
proved that platoon. Joe Fortunate
a rookie lrom Mississippi State,
has shown up well as a linebacker
in exhibitions and Alton Romlne
of Alabama Teachers has
strengthened in the secondary.
The club's new offensive talent
includes halfbacks Rick Casares of
Florida. Ron Drzewlecki of Mar
quette and Bobby Watklns of Ohio
State. They Join such experienced
men as fullback Chick Agade, half
back Leon Campbell aqd quarter
backs George Blanda and Ed
Brown.
GOOD PASSING
The passing attack should be a
good one Harlon Hill, an all-
league selection offensive end last
year as a rookie, will be on one
flank. Gene Schroeder, back from
the Army, will handle the other
end. Bill McColl will alternate with
them.
This year. Bob Wlliams, former
Notre ' Dame star, has returned
from military service to help
Blanda and Brown with the pass-
In.
Halas also plans some surprises
for the club's opponents. Some of
the new plays probably will fea
ture Casares and Brown passing
from a halfback spot. '
The line is bis with veterans
for e"ery spot. The linemen in
clude BUI Bishop. George Connor,
Kline Gilbert, Stan Jones, John
Kreamcheck. Bill Wlnhtkln. Her
man Clark, Bill George, Ed
Sprinkle, and John Helwig.

supervisor the night of Aug. 3(i in

Lane orotested an umpire's de
cision. The scene led to Lane be
ing fined $500 by Commissioner

Indignities from Chuck, in private,
and then In public," Lane said. "I

NEW YORK Here are the j
nre-oaltle statements of heavy-1
weight chan.pion Rocky Miuciauo
and Archie Moore on the eve of I
their ti.le fight at Yank's Stadium,
Tuesday nhthv
By Rocky Marciano
World Heavyweight Champion
I am very confident. I feel 1
will win either by a decision or a
knockout. I hope it will bn by a
knockout and I am setting my
sights on that target.
DUt UUM I Ululk Dill .uuudtau-
mating Moore. His record speaks
tor ilseli. He is a fishier of great
experience, a good boxer and a
good puncher. If he chooses to
swan punches U ouvht to be an ex
citing evening. And I am sure with
ro much at state, he will do Just
that.
I would be kidding the public if
! said I didn't resent some of the
things Moore has said, or had said,
about me. I have never been a
dirty fighter Nothing, not even
the heavyweight title, would make
me stray from the w.ty my pa
rents trained me.
I ant in the best condition of my
life, win or lose there can be no
excuses. . But I am going to win
and by r knockout if it Is human
ly possible. .
By Archie Moor
World LlshUhravweielit Champion
I'm in excellent condition. I nev
er felt better in my life. I have
trained loncer for this fight than
tor any in my cireer.
I'm ready to go one vouna or
fifteen rourds. I've said a lot of
things about Roc.-ty and About this
fight and I meant every one of
them. Just to keep the record
straight. I never questioned
Rooky's courage or ,ils fighting
ability. He is a strong, game light
cr. , - .
But I feel I am better and am
sure that I can outpoint Rocky
Marciano and If the opportunity
presented Itself, knock him out,
I'll be looking for a knockout from
