Moyer is considering going to Europe, but he would probably rather get a shot at Emile Griff ith for the welterweight crown if his manager can arrange it. Dupas, who has Inst one title bout to Griffith already, would probably rather challenge mid dleweight champ Dick Tiger if he' had tire choice, since Tiger would be more readily available for an early bout.

Gregory, who said he also spoke for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Christian Lead ership Conference. Friday night issued his warning in a telegram to President Kennedy. "It is inconceivable to me that a Negro can be allowed to par ticipate in an integrated track meet in enemy territory but can not do so in his own country," Gregory wrote. Gregory, a Negro, has been a leader in civil rights demonstra tions throughout the South. In his telegram to the President, he called the racial problem "an American one" which deserves "here and now, the prestige and full moral power of your high of fice."

The 6-foot, 5-inch, 245-pound Bos- ton Red Sox relief ace has pitched 33 consecutive scoreless relief in ings. The major league record for starter is 56 in a row, by Walter Johnson, but 33 by a relief pitcher is the best any big league! statistical wizards can recall and so big Dick has the record. That is, unless you care to de bate the question with a man who can come out of the bullpen with the bases filled and nobody out and retire the side on three pitches. In the course of his magnificent pitching, Radatz has compiled an 0 88 earned run average well be low the American League record of 1.01 and also lower than the modern major league mark of 0.90. Stops Oriole Threat Radatz entered Friday night's game against the Baltimore Ori oles with the bases filled and no body out in the eighth inning. He got Johnny Powell to hit into a double play and then retired Jim Gentile on a popup to preserve' a 5-1 victory for Earl Wilson. It was Wilson's fifth win of the sea son. The New York Yankees beat the Detroit Tigers 4-2, the Cleveland Indians topped the Washington Senators 3-2 in 19 innings after a 5-2 loss, the Minnesota Twins de feated the Los Angeles Angels 3-2, and the Chicago White Sox nipped the Kansas City Athletics 2 in other AL games.
