Herbert Won lUlh SSLL A!lSfcars Open Title Bid The hard hitting South Subur-,be ban Little League All-Stars, win ners of the District Six Tourna ment here last weekend, open their big bid for the State Little League crown tonight in Portland at 6:30 p.m. at Riverside Field. The team they play was un known as the group left for Port land. It is known that they will By OSCAR FRALEY UPI Sports Writer NEW Y'ORK (UPI) Cassius1 Clay, the Louisville lip, should be arrested today not only for im-i personating a fighter but also for impersonating an entertainer. The loud one has signed a con tract with Columbia Records to produce a record a long play ing one, naturally which deals with not only his poetry but also his fistic future against one Char les (Sonny) Liston, heavyweight champion of the world. It'll be a gasser like his fight with Liston. meaning both will be designed to put you to sleep. Or him. Cassius, if you look under the s'face, is merely loud-mouthing to build a big gate against the retirement into which Liston probably will blast him. As a fighter, which was proved by one Doug Jones, he is a wondrous talker. "I predicted six against Jones and then predicted four," he ad mitted by way of indirect apol ogy of his "lucky" 10-round "vic tory" over Jones. "So it went 10 rounds and that's the right total." There is nobody in boxing who believes that the flap-lipped Lou isville boxer can last much past two or three rounds with Liston But this is all part of the box office buildup. "I talked so long t h e record company asked me to do a rec ord," he said in a mid-Manhat- tan hotel suite when he swag gered in wearing a red robe with white lapels. "This blood you seel on here is that of Henry the Coo per. Real blood." Cooper was the British heavy weight, in the true tradition of a long line of inept British heavy weights, who was Clay's last! 'victim." Cassius was forced to admit right off the bat that he wasn't singer but merely a talker and reciter." Asked whether any body would buy it, he predicted naturally, a total of eight namely 8 million. "They II buy it because on tlie cover will be the prettiest fight er in tlie world," he insisted. "In side will be gags and philosophy." Then he cave a sample, and there were those on hand whol wished he hadn't. This is a story about a man with iron fists and golden tan . . . 'Friends. Romans, countrymen. come to bury Liston. not to praise him . . . 'I'll teach that Liston any thing, talking, boxing or actually what he needs, falling lessons 'I'm too pretty to be a fight er .. . I'm so beautiful my face should be a natural resource . "Patterson was nuthin' but scared chump . . . "I could whip both Patterson and Liston in the same night . . . "This record will last longer than Liston . . . 'I named him a big ugly bear and what I say goes all over the world ..." And, carried away by his own importance. Clay allowed that he wouldn't fight Liston for the 22 ' i per cent he had been offered. "Sugar Ray Robinson told me he never took less than 45 per cent as a challenger." the Lip al lowed. "I'd be a fool to take low er." And so it went. Meaning, that if you take Cas sius Clay, against Liston or on a record, man you ought to have your head examined. End buildup BIG ONE DIDN'T GET AWAY This is livinq proof that the big ones don't always get away. Eldon Alt, Route 3, Box 64, landed this monstrous 34-pound Chinook Salmon at Pacific City on the coast last week. The 34-pound beauty measured 44 inches long. He hooked the salmon while trolling with a froien herring as bait. It took him 45 minutes to land the fish and the hook fell out of the fish's mouth just as he pulled him aboard. He was fishing off the boat of his cousin, Ray Alt, from Salam. The fish was caught near Haystack Rock. He used a 40-pound test line and they limited out both days. KF Squires Take Fifth The Klamath Falls Columbian Squires traveled to Milwaukie, Ore., over last weekend to par ticipate in the Oregon State Co lumbian Squires Softball Tourna ment.

The final score was 17-2. In the second game the local crew played a rougher type of ball but still were repelled By a rougher team from Woodburn, 8-4. Highlight for the local nine was the placing of the first two pitch ers on the All-State Team. They were, respectively, jerrie tsrn- ton and Tom Schiff. Schiff threw for only two and two-thirds in nings in a relief job and still was selected number two out of four pitchers. Britton, chosen as top pitcher, pitched a total of nine and one third innings. He fanned 13 bat ters, five against Gresham and eight against Woodburn.

Title Bout Move Seen PHILADELPHIA (UPI) - The slate athletic commissioner sched uled a conference today to dis cuss "alternative action" to keep the proposed Sonny Liston-Cas sius Clay heavyweight title out in Philadelphia. . . . ..

It was Craig's 17th straight de feat one short of tlie National League record set by Clifton Cur tis of the old Boston Braves in 1910. A walk, a single by Ron Fair ly, a triple by John Rosehoro and a sacrifice fly by Willie Davis in the second inning accounted for three Los Angeles runs and two more singles, an error by New York second baseman Ron Hunt plus a w ild pitch by Craig scored two more in the fourth inning. That proved more than enough as Pete Richer! , Ken Rowo and Ron Pcrranoski held the Mets off to nail down the victory. Combined with the Giants' loss to the Phils, it restored the Dodg ers' first-place lead to 4'4 games, Mnrlch.il Knocked Out Juan Marichal was cruising along with a 3-0 lead when the Phils scored a run in tlie eighth and then chased him with two more in the ninth.
