Time Running Out For Kenny Lane; New! For Back-to-School and Dick Reeder Has 'em!
Looks For Title
; MUSKEGON, Mich. IPI.
Time is running out lor Kenny
Lane, the Mikegon belter who
has spent the last five years
, waiting for another shot at the
lightweight championship of the
world.
Lane. 31 -year -old father of
three, is spending his lime the-e
days fixing machines at the self
service laundromat and dry
cleaning establishment he bough!
three years ago.
"If a guy only kne what uas
going to happen Lane said
MUSIAL OUT AT SECOND St. Louis Cardinals' outfielder Stan Musial is out at sec

waiting for him, ball in hand, ready to throw for double play. Cards' infielder Ken
Boyer hit to Giants' Harvey Kuenn at third, who relayed to Davenport in time for dou
ble play on both Musial and Boyer. Play came in the second inning of game in San
Francisco. Giants won, 7-2. UPI Telephoto
Baltimore Needs Bodyguard
For Quarterback J. Unitas
BALTIMORE, Md. IUPI
What the Baltimore Colts need
most is a bodyguard for quarter
hack Johnny Unitas.
They could also use a few good
runners lo take a lot of the heat
off Johnny's passing efforts.
And the task of finding just the
right men is the main preoccu
pation these days of Don Shula,
the bright 33-year-old new head
coach who replaces Weeb Ew
bank this season.
For the past few years, ever
since Alan iThe Horse') Ameche
retired, Unitas has not received
the pass protection he once en
joyed during the Colts' 11158 and
lil.ill .National Koolnall League
championship seasons.
Joe Perry has done a good job
at fullback in ball-carrying but
he has not been the blocker
Ameche was. Others have been
tried at that position and been
lound wanting.
So, before the start of this sea
son the Colls acquired 226-pound
J. W. Lockelt from the Dallas
Cowboys with the hopes that he
can do the job of keeping enemy
rushers off Unitas' back.
In pre-season games Lockett
has alternated effectively with
Perry and it looks as t hough
J.W. will wind up w ith the start
ing job at fullback.
As for the running halfback as
signment, Shula will have to de
pend on the same personnel as
last year but he expects to gen
erate more yardage by becling
up the line blockuig and by use
of more varied backfield forma
tions. Lenny Moore, starling his
eishth NFL season, will get the
firs! call at running hallback.
The l'.Kl-pound Mnore may not be
as durable or as elusive as he
once was but he remains a two
way Ihrcal as a runner and pass
catcher. Behind him is Tom
Malic, who executes the Paul
Hornunc-styled pass-run option
plav well.
Simla has installed four varied j
baiklield formations and also has
made frequent use of men-in-mo-linn
plays during the pre-season
jseriod.
Two rookie players could im
pime the Ime-hlocking. They are
Bob Vogel. 232-pound Ohio Slate
t.ukle who was Baltimore's No. 1
di.ill choice, and John Mackcy
Syracuse, making a slrong hid
for the tight end position.

as he pondered the possibility of
getting Carlos Ortiz, the recog
nized lightweight champion every
where but in Michigan, unto the
ring soon.
"It's been this way (or years,
you get tired of waiting and it
gets especially tough when you
go broke. I had to wait so long
tor that shot at Joe Brown and
now I'm still waiting for another1
crack at it," Lane said.
"My wile would just as soon
have me quit and get a job
where you know when you're go
ing to work and how much mon
pound Jim Parker to guard,
where he won All-Pro honors.
Parker was shifted to tackle last
season in an emergency measure
lo provide better pass-blocking.
If all these moves work out, the
Colts should strike a better bal
anced attack. Last season they
went through the air for two
thirds of their total yardage.
Baltimore has a wealth of pass
receiving talent. Flanker Jimmy

Holds Michigan Title
Lane currently holds the Mich
igan version of the lightweight
crown whatever that means
after pounding out a unani
mous decision over Paulie Arm
stead of Los Angeles at Saginaw
last week.
But it wasn't much of a pay
day lor Lane or (or Armstead.
The paid gale was only 2,200 and
more than that number got in

able as a spare.
Defensiwely, the Colts are
sound everywhere except perhaps
at tackle, where Billy Ray Smith

perennial All-Pro, and Ordell
Braase are fixtures at end; Bill

Jackie Burkett return as line
backers, while Andy Nelson, Jim
Welch, Bob Boyd, Lenny Lyies
and Wendell Harris man the
backfield positions.

THE WORLD'S FINEST BOURBON SINCE 1795
boxing, it's hard to tell what will
come next (or Lane.
The World Boxing Association
iWBA), currently feuding with
Michigan boxing Commissioner
David Gudelsky, stripived Ortiz ol
his lightweight crown for ailing
to deiend it and then gave il
back the dav before the Lane-
Armstead fight.
The WBA also ordered Ortiz to
sign for a fight with the Lanc
Armstead .vinner in 60 days.
"But 1 haven't heard anything
yet." Lane said. "I'm still wait-
ng."
The situation was al.so confused
when the WBA threw Michigan
out for "contemptuous attitude."
Gudelsky claims Michigan had
withdrawn from the organization
before the state was kicked out.
Lane, who has never been
knocked out and has been
knocked off his feet only once,
turned pro on his 21st birthday.
April 9, 1933.
The stylish southpaw since Ihat
time has won 7 fights, lost only
11 and fought in two draws.
Lost To Brown
He's been perennially rated the
No. 1 contender, but his only
shot at the title came in 11138 in
Houston against then champion
Brown. Lane lost a unanimous
15-round decision by a raor-thin
margin as tne reieree ann one
judge gave the light to Brown by
just one point.
The late Jack mod kearns.
thinking Iane was way ahead on
points, advised him lo coast the
final two rounds, which Brown
subsequently won.
A rematch seemed likely, but
Lane could never get Brown into
the ring again.
Since the bout with Brown.
Lane has fought Ortiz twice. He
gained a decision in Will, but
when they fought for the junior
welterweight championship the
following year, Ortiz won on a
l'KO.
"He opened up a 16-stitch
gash on my forehead when he
butted me. Lane said.
Ortiz then dethroned Brown in
April of 1962, but Lane lias been
unable lo get Ortiz in the ring
for another shot at the title.
Lane was rated No. 1 until last
month when the WBA switched
the ratings and dropped him to
No. 2 and moved Armstead to
No. 1.
But Lane slill has ambitions of
wearing the crown some day.
"Ortiz is an overrated fighter,
first he makes the matches and
I then they rate his oppoents, it's
ridiculous.
"If I gel the fight. I figure Ij
can beat him and then set up
some pretty good paydays as
champion." he added. , '
"That could really set me up
in the laundrv business. It's a;
good business."
But before he retires to the
laundry business, he wants to
wear the crown.
He's waited long enough for it
