Ed Machen
Gets Vargas,
Seeks Champ
PORTLAND, Ore. (API-Heavy.
weight Eddie Machen, once the
No. 1 challenger, neatly stopped
Reuben Vargaa here Wednesday
night and then said he wants to
fight champion Ingemar Johans
son again.
Both Machen and his manager,
Sid Flaherty, said he has regained
the fighting form he had prior to
being knocked out in the first
round by Johansson last Sept. 14.
Prior to that bout, Machen was
the top contender for then cham
pion Floyd Patterson's crown. Aft
er knocking out Machen, Johans
jon went on to lift Patterson's
title.
The fight here Wednesday night
was the second meeting between
Machen, who now makes his
home in Portland, and Vargas,
who fights out of the San Fran
cisco area.
Vargas bad no defense for
Machen's jolting left jabs and
powerful rights Wednesday night
and he seemed ready to go down
in the third round.
But it wasn't until the sixth,
that Machen moved into finish
Vargas. Less than a minute had
elapsed in that round when Ma
chen threw a left that sent Vargas
into the ropes and then dropped
Vargas with a right.
Ole Bardahl Howls
SEATTLE (AP) - With the1
world series of hydroplane racing
less than three weeks away, the
owner of the world's champion big
boat issued a searing denuncia
tion of the way the sport is run.
"The possibility of accident is
heightened by the mismanage
ment of a few selfish non-racers
and hangers-on interested in self
aggrandizement and personal
profit," said Ole Bardahl Wednes
day. Driver Jack Regas was critical
ly injured last Sunday during the
Diamond Cup Race at Coeur
d'Alene, Idaho, when the wind
shield and cowling of the Miss Bar
dahl struck him in the face and
chest. He still lies unconscious.
' Bardahl said his boat would
probably not compete in the Gold
Cup Race here Aug. 9. He said
his decision to sell or retire the
Miss Bardahl was based on "the
conditions which I think brought
on that accident."
Bardahl refused to accuse any
one by name but did give some
examples to back up his hazard
claim examples immediately
challenged by sponsors of the Dia
mond Cup.
Bardahl said water skiers raised
rollers in the south turn of the
course at Coeur d'Alene, where
three accidents occurred and one
boat, Miss Burien, sank. The
Coeur d'Alene Unlimited Hydro
plane Assn. said no pleasure craft
traveled at speeds greater than
four miles an hour within half
mile of the course from the time it
was closed to the public 1! hours
before the first heat was run.
Bardahl complained that in hy
droplaning "it is a full lap or
more before aid is even sent to a
stricken driver and often aid is in
the form of equipment unable to
rush a driver to medical attention
or save a boat from needless
sinking."
The Diamond Cup s p on i o r s
statement said:
"As far as safeguarding the
drivers, when Bill Brow, driver of
Burien, was thrown into the water,
he was rescued within 45 seconds
by a Civil Defense boat.
"When Regas was in trouble,
contact was made with him in
10 'i seconds and he was in the
ambulance in the pits in 154 min
utes, despite the fact the pits were
2'i miles from where the accident
occurred.
"In addition, the boat carrying
Regas to the pits was met by
another boat with a full supply of
oxygen which was administered
immediately."
