THURSDAY. JLTffi 26. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE 13 A 'The Rock' Says Patterson Lacking Active Competitor NEW YORK (NEA) - Rocky Martians dropped into New York for the first time in months ... to make a television appearance. For a fellow who was supposed to blow up like a poisoned pup when he quit fighting, The Rock Is surprisingly fit for a stocky ex-l warrior wno nas Deen out of circu lation for almost three years. "Weighed 218 this morning," he aid in his Hotel New Yorker suite. ' Would be no trick at all to get down to my best fighting weight, 18V Marciano, 35 in September, now (peaks of packaging potatoes in stead ol putting lumps on guys heads. The old champion is the Brooks. Case Finish Well At Redding A squad of 11 Klamath Falls tennis players, 10 men and one girl. Miss Gayle Case, 15-year-old KU sophomore, journeyed to Red ding last Saturday and Sunday to play in the Redding Invitational Open. Players from points all over Northern California and South ern Oregon competed. Winning top honors for the Klam athites in the tourney were Earl Brooks and Miss Case. Brooks teamed with Kay O'Bry on, from Redding, to gain the mixed doubles crown while Miss Case, who was making her first start in competition, finished sec ond to Miss O'Bryon in the wom en's singles by scores of 6-1 and 6-0. Miss Case was forced to enter the women's division because of the lack of a girl's classification. Brooks and O'Bryon defeated Ken Karns, Redding, and Judy Herrick from Sacramento 6-1, 6-2 for their title. Don Megale, who fell before tournament singles' winner Jack McGee, 6-0, 2-6, 6-2, in the semi finals, was joined in defeat by Brooks who also was knocked out in the semi's by runnerup Dick Hallock by scores of 8-6, 6-3. McGee won his championship by whipping Hallock 6-4 and 10-8 On his way to the junior sin gle's championship, George Hunt downed Keith Baxter 6-2 and 6-3 in the quarterfinals. Other Klamath players who were dropped in early action included Raymond Tice. Jerry Jennings, Phil Jackson, Bud Case, John Bousquet, Duane Fitzsimmons and Brian Walters. r$5? i i ill Off partner of Jimmy Cerniglia. the ex-tomato king, in South Miami and northern Florida. "The potato Is a basic." he ex plains. "From that you can so into cauliflower, spinach and mush rooms. But what did Marciano think of Floyd Patterson's long idleness ana nis match with Roy Harris in Los Angeles? Marciano believes that the lack of a really worth-while opponent had more to do with Cus D'Ama to's reluctance to bring Patterson out of the barn than the manager s vendetta with the International Boxing Club. D Amato kept waitine for one or tnose guys Machen, Folley, rastrano, Mitelf and DeJohn to make one more good showing, and none ot them did unless it was Harris, and he has never been na tionally televised and is little known outside of Texas," he said. I know how it is. I was for tunate to have LaStarza, Layne, Louis, Mathews, Walcott, Charles Cockell and Moore, and the fact that they kept active he oed. r recall how I was criticized when a Florida match with Dan ny Nardico, a light-heavyweight, and another with Dan Bucceroni at Madison Square Garden were suggested." It is Marciano s opinion that Pat terson is still without a suitable challenger with whom he can get the more important money, yet sees the Brooklyn boy's match with Harris doing well. "Texans are proud," he streses and they think well of Harris in Houston, should make the trip in droves. The one-time Brockton Block Buster has never seen Harris, but talked to Willie Pastrano after the New Orleans busybody dropped a 10-round decision to the backwoods school teacher. "Willie said the fight was close and that Harris was rough and awkward, the Rock recollects "Willie said he would beat Harris in a return, but you know how it is. the loser always says he would win in a return. 'From what t have heard. can't give Harris much chance against Patterson, but those rough and awkward guys can give any body trouble for five or six rounds." Marciano now fills only dates that are convenient, or about eight month, at S750 and SI. 000 a crack. He referees wrestling math es, speaks, just plain shows up. The Rock was en route to Buf falo to do a turn for the Church of Lorenzo, "I'm doing all .the favors I couldn t possibly do when I was in training," he said, "more than 100 of them. I believe I've done a lot of good the last 10 months. Usual ly there is a business appointment nearby that covers expenses." Surrounded by relatives and friends, Barbara Marciano laughed gaily in the next room. The missus saw very little of her husband while he was busting beaks. 'Neither of us ever had it so good," smiled Rocky Marciano. Reame'i women golfers will kickoff their second round of play for the Club trophy Friday, June 27.

That was tha verdict of American rac ing car drivers Thursday after testing the Monza race track north of Milan. There, on Sunday, some of the best drivers and cars from the United States will meet some of the best from the European and South American circuits. It is a SOO-mile Indianapolis rtyle race, billed as the fastest in the world. H probably will be run without world champion Juan Manuel Fan- gio. The Argentine ace is caught up in a contract bind which pro hibits him from anving a car noi serviced bv a British oil products firm. The only car available to him is an Amencan-maae c a r committed to using American oil There's no doubt the Monza track is fast, with its 38 degree banked curves. Jimmy Bryan of Phoenix, Ariz., won last year: race with an average speed more than 160 miles per hour. Wednesday in a test run Jim Rathmann. of Miami. Fla.. i Zink Leader Card Special, did one 2.6-mile lap at an average speed of 174 mph. The record average for a lap is just over 177.046 mph. But while it is a fast track, it is a rough track. Only six of the 12 cars starting last year's race finished. The others were shaken apart with broken shock absorbers, cracked frames and fuel tank leaks. Yankee pitcher Whitey Ford equalled an American League rec ord when he struck out six straight batters in 1956 game against Kansas City. He repeated the per formance June 1 1958, against the White Sox. TIME OUT "He's the best In the pole vault so far ... I clocked him In six seconds flat!" Horseshoe Tournament Scheduled Another activity of the Klamath Basin Celebration is scheduled for Moore Park Sunday. June 29. at 10 a.m. when the Klamath Falls Parks and Recreation Department will stage a horseshoe tournament.

The top eight qualifiers will make up Class A while the next eight will fall into Class B. Remaining entrants will play in an unlimited classification. Lighted courts will permit continued action alter dark, should H prove necessary. In each of the classifications ev ery player will meet the other with championships decided on the bas is of games won and lost. Reg ulation horseshoe rules will be en forced by a rules committee head ed by Roy Harris of the park dc partment. Working with Harris are Clyde Harris and Al Knowles. Each game will consist of 50 points and players may furnish their own shoes or make use of those furnished by the city, accord- in? to Harris. The scheduling of the tourna ment will depend on the registra tion, stated Harris. He added that there is also a possibility of reg ular play being continued through out the summer if the response to Sunday s tourney warrants. Persons who may know of a source of potter's clay to be used in the horseshoe pits are request ed to call the recreation office at TU 2-3863. Johnson Awes Rivals, Fans KINGSBURG, Calif. (UPI) - Giant Rafer Johnson thrilled a home-town crowd Wednesday as he took a first half lead at the Invitational Decathlon Track and Field championships with 4,319 points. the final events win oe run off today. Two Oregon university students turned in magnificent debuts and were close to the UCLA star. Dave Edstrom scored 4.194 points and Steve Anderson tallied 4,092, It appeared that the sore knee which has dogged Johnson off and on for two years might prevent him from setting a world mark here. Johnson sizzled in the track events yesterday with a mark of 10.6 seconds in the 100-meter race and one of 48.7 in the 400-meter. He putt the shot 50 feet 5 inches and broadjumped 23 feet 3 inches for two more top performances. But he took just one high jump at 5 feet 2 inches, far below his top capability. He apparently did not wish to risk reinjury to the knee. Johnson holds the listed world mark of 7,985. But Russia's Vas sily Kuznetsov scored 8,013 points last month in Moscow.
