Sugar Ray, for now anyway, pro fesses to believe that a try at the heavyweight title Is an earlh shakcr worth millions and he has taken the idea directly to Patter son. Floyd, without Cus D'Amato he ing present, has talked with Su gar Ray about it. George Gain- ford and the rest ot Robinson's camp actually believe it is a bet ter idea than a (bird and worn out match with Carmen Basilio. But Robinson screws up his face with disgust at mention of this rather fantastic idea. Apparently he can't move Patterson. And Man ager D'Amato ("If Robinson wants to commit Suicide, Patterson won't be the vehicle"! won't hear of it. Robinson's other grand plan for an assault on all the world's mon ey centers on his singing. Which is what brought 15 guests to the Ja- hara School of Music, a few blocks down Seventh Avenue from Rob inson's offices. Sugar was giving his first concert. The school is actually in an apartment, three floors up from the busy street, and in one of the rooms, a pleasant, sport- shirted guy sat at the piano as Robinson adjusted the microphone and Ihe people filled up a couch and some chairs. "I've been doin' this for three months and one week," he said. "I come here twice a day. I'm not fooling around with this, man. I got a couple of big television shots. Record companies are alter me.

This is the finale for Big Ten titlist Macauley Post With ST. LOUIS (AP) - Easy Ed Macauley might have a tough time living up to his name now lhat he is the "new coach of the St. Louis Hawks. He's working for fiery Ben Ker ner, who has disposed of two coaches in less than a year while each had the team in lirst, place. Macauley, former St. Louis Uni versity All-America and a nine year veteran of the National Bas ketball Assn., was named by Kernel- aflcr the owner fired Andy Phillip from the coaching job. The 30-year-old Macauley said he hopes to become a bench coach, although he will remain in uniform until the cutdown date Dec. 15. He Then Ihe little guy at the piano started playing and Robinson sang. We are far from a musical expert, but most gin mills have juke boxes so it took little background to know Sugar Ray nas decided he is going to be a Frank Sinatra. Fingers snapping, body swaying a la Sinatra, Sugar ran through about 20 songs. All were Sinatra specials and he imitated Frankie. The audience, comprised of such as Trainer June Clark, Ray's wife Edna Mae, and Mrs. Willie Mays, thought he was the most. The notion here was that a large bullfrog sat squarely on the champ's voice every time he car ried a note for any length. In the never-ceasing battle to bring truth to the world it also must be re ported that sometimes Robinson gave the impression he was wres tling with a process server dur ing a number entitled, "Came Fly With Me." i But this is not to write him oft. He has. in his time, collected $18. 500 a week as a tap dancer. And he has natural rhythm and par ticularly when he crooned some thing called "You've Changed," a pleasant delivery. He will most assuredly be viewed and heard in your living room one evening six or seven weeks from now. A Broadway agent in attendance guaranteed he has the goods. And he will be paid big money. Which is the main idea. When Ray finished, he announced, "I'm not going' to do any more. You want any more, you gonna pay me for it." "Man. that was Just fine," noted June Clark, who had brought a bouquet of flowers (or Ray's con cert. "You look like you got plenty of confidence." "Confidence," Sugar smiled. "Man, you mean I got nerve. Lis ten, ain't nobody got more nerve than me." Martin Machat. who doubles as Robinson's lawyer and agent, ex plained the situation. "He has enough! to work with now. We'll bring him downtown for some big league tutoring and give him six weeks and he'll make it. I was amazed he was this good. "As far as singers go, you know how it works. When they go flat, the, band plays loud and drowns them out. They do it for Eddie Fisher all the lime."

Kerner maintained Phillip was losing control of the players. Unable to contact Phillip by tele phone. Kerner telegraphed him ihursday, iou have been ve- lieved of your coaching duties as of now. Phillip, a long-time Boston Cel tic player and one-time member of the Illinois "Whiz Kids," was angered when he learned via radio newscast that he had been fired "My good friend, Alex Hannum lold me it would be like this," Phillip said. Hannum coached the Hawks last year, guiding the club to the Western Division title and then to a playoff victory over the Celtics. But Hannum and Kerner were unable to agree on a contract after the season ended. In the only game Thursday night, rookie Elgin Baylor scored 37 points to lead the Minneapolis Lakers to a 121-102 victory over the Syracuse Nationals.

SL Cardinals Cut Houston Off Farm List HOUSTON, Tex. (AP) The St. Louis Cardinals are abandoning Ihe club that started the farm system in baseball.. They are doing it because Hous ton wasn't able to advance to Class AA and also because they felt they can't operate in a city thjt has major league ambitions. Severing of relations with Hous ton was annouced Thursday by Art Routzong, business manager of the Cardinals. It brought to an end a union that started back in 1921 when Branch Rickey bought an interest in the Texas League club and started the farm system in baseball. The Cardinals took over full ownership in 1926 Routzong said the franchise would be offered for sale for $10Gv 000 and that this would include 18 players now on the Houston ros ter. The Cardinals also will nego tiate a lease on the stadium for a limited time and sell the prop erty should a good offer be re ceived. At e recent minor league meet ing in Memphis it was proposed that Dallas, Houston and Fort Worth of the Class AA Tcxa? League be moved into the AAA American Assn. The American Assn. rejected the plan. A syndicate here has been seeking a major league franchise for months and will build a big stadium with money voted in a bond issue.
