I'll Handel This By LEONARD R. HANDEL (Bulletin Sports Editor) Now that heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson has disposed of England's Brian London in something a bit less than impressive fashion, a number of boxing fans are wondering what the titlist will do in his bout with Ingemar Johansson. Those close to the fistic whirl were a bit surprised when Brother Brian was still enjoying an upright-type position after 10 rounds, although his form was resorting to a semblance of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Patterson, to be kind about it, did not exactly set the world on fire. For the first few rounds he and the challenger went into a routine that would have done justice to a Fred Astaire movie. They danced and poked and generally stood away from anything which would have appeared as pugilistic competition. Prior to the bout, the scene had been shifted from Las Vegas, Nevada, to Indianapolis, when Lost Wages officials decided the battle was anything but a real good thing. It used to be that a city would do anything short of unlawful acts to acquire a title skirmish, but when Patterson was inked to fight London it was about as sought after a scrap as one pitting the writer against the guy next door. Patterson's feud with London brought to light a number of facts, none of which figure to do the fight-game any good. One was that Brian was nowhere near ready for a fight with Floyd. Another was that he most probably will never be, and third — and possibly most important — was that the boxing game has reached a point where all a man need do is presumably be of heavyweight dimensions and he is able to tiff the champ. Now, maybe we are just suspicious. We get that way after a while. But to us it would seem that this mismatch was nothing more than a "get-ready" type bout for Patterson as he nears his second rather confusing skirmish, the Johansson affair. We have no doubts that Ingemar is a fine boxer. Reports tell of a number of good wins registered by him. Yet, they do not tell of enough victories over men who are top-rated in the fistic whirl. It is quite possible that while Patterson will be fighting another man, the same conditions will prevail. This is to say that Floyd, the champion, will be meeting a man who at present does not deserve a title chance. It is a good bet that the coming skirmish will be better from a fan's standpoint than the last, but this is only to admit that the bout will be the best in a falling lot.

It is a good bet that the coming skirmish will be better from a fan's standpoint than the last, but this is only to admit that the bout will be the best in a failing lot. Try as we will to make this thing sound exciting, it is just an impossibility. Pugilism must realize that today's fan has been educated to press radio and television to a point where they will not support a fight just because they are asked to. Certainly, the Johansson-Patterson affair should draw a good gate. But it is doubtful that it will do any good for the sport. Should those in attendance put out their hard earned cash for another "turkey" it is almost a certainty that they will stay away in droves from subsequent battles. The fight game must realize that they must assume the direct responsibility for the drop in gate receipts. It is not the fault of television, nor any other form of entertainment medium. It is simply the end result of poor fights, bad matchmaking, even poorer public relations and general public apathy. The entertainment world realizes that it cannot offer a bad show and expect good crowds: It's high time the sports whirl — namely the fight field — saw the same thing. The Floyd Patterson-Ingemar Johansson scrap is just another step in the wrong direction. One the game can ill afford to take. ADDED THOUGHT With this in mind it might not be a bad idea to take a further look at the fistic world to see just what can be done to aid the sport. One item which could aid in great measures would be the building up of the amateur. While not every man can step from the amateurs to a title fight in one easy jump, like Pete Rademacher, a successful professional level cannot be obtained without a goodly number of the remaining group. It is good that the Santa Ana Boxing Academy has started on their quest to bring the sport to this area. Those who have attended a number of their workout sessions have seen that there are still some talented young men who would like to make their living in the fight game and if they can be encouraged it would be to the great benefit of the sport as a whole. Boxing is at the crossroads, where they must step in the right direction or face even greater difficulty. It is quite possible that such establishments as the Santa Ana Boxing Academy will help them in their quest. Let's hope so at least. DATE CHANGE Due to a conflicting date, the Anaheim Golf Association's Field Day, which was originally slated for May 19, has been moved to the following Tuesday. However, the affair will still take place at Meadowlark Golf Course in Huntington Beach. So better plan on attending. Even I'll be there. Be so warned.

Maxwell's record-tying homers plus the pitching of Yankee-killer Frank Lary and Don Mossi, combined to shoot Dykes off to a blazing start Sunday with 4-2 and 8-3 victories over the world champion New York Yankees. Maxwell balked at a pay cut last winter and was frequently mentioned in trade rumors. Then Detroit got Larry Doby in spring training. Doby beat the fans' favorite, Maxwell, out of the starting left field job and Maxwell's spirits sank lower. He perked up when he hit a three-run pinch homer on opening day and drove in two more runs as a pinch hitter the next day but when he was restored to left field he couldn't buy a hit and Bill Norman benched him. His start Sunday was his first in 10 days. "I guess I can take my clothes home now and unpack my suitcase," Maxwell said happily. "I've left most of my clothes in my locker in the clubhouse—you never know what's going to happen." Maxwell's smashes — his first since the one opening day—tied a major league and American League record. The major league mark was four home runs in consecutive at-bats and the AL mark was for four homers in a double-header. Maxwell got better distance with each poke, all better than 400 feet into right center field. He boosted his average 122 points.

The Orange Countians must win tomorrow to assure at least a tie for the Parochial League pennant and possibly undisputed ownership of the title. The Monarchs possess an eight win and three loss record in Parochial League play, which puts the locals one-half game ahead of second place Pomona Catholic which is seven and three on the season. If the Monarchs beat St. Francis at Memorial Stadium then Coach Pat Roberts’ crew would have completed the regular Loop campaign with nine wins in 12 outings. Pomona has two more league games to play and both away from home. Should the Spartans lose to either Mary Star tomorrow, or St. Paul’s on Friday and the Monarchs win over St. Francis, then the local forces will own the crown outright. However, should both Mater Del and Pomona win all their remaining games, the league will end in a two-way deadlock for the title. Flip Asked In case of such a tie, Pomona has asked for a flip of the coin to decide who shall reign as champ and represent the league in the approaching CIF AA Play-offs. Mater Del, on the other hand, wants no part of a flip and will ask CIF Southern Division commissioner Ken Fagans to allow both teams to enter the play-offs or arrange for a special elimination game between the Monarchs and Spartans. Dodgers Battle Braves Today MILWAUKEE (UPI) — The Los Angeles Dodgers, losers of their first series this year and at the bottom of the first division, go against the league-leading Milwaukee Braves tonight in the first of a three-game series. The Dodgers, after splitting a doubleheader 3-6, 7-1 with the Cincinnati Redlegs before 27.962 fans Sunday, were hoping their old charm against the Braves would be working tonight. The Dodgers, when they seem unable to beat any other NL team have lucky against the Braves — edging the first-place team by a slight margin in their total games last year. Southpaw Johnny Podres (2-2) split four games with Milwaukee last season and he’ll go to the mound tonight opposite veteran Warren Spahn, who has a 3-2 record this year with two of his three wins shutouts. Spahn split two games against the Dodgers in 1958. Gametime in the Game Anaheim tussle is sore while the remaining goal under way at 3.

Eddie Jackson, hard hitting Los Angeles belter, takes on Cleve Graham in the 6-round semi-windup. Jackson halted Jimmy Harryman in the third round of a good fight last week, and broke the Long Beach longshoreman's win streak. Eddie, also kayoed Kenny Hayden in a single punch a few nights before at Hollywood. Jackson is expected to add Cleve's name to his fast growing list of knockout victims. Benny Doyle, Huntington Park veteran, meets Floyd Buchannon in a 4-rounder. The pair met in Germany three years ago for the European Service title, and Doyle won. Buchannon felt he was robbed and wants to even the old score. Two four-rounders show Pete Alexander vs. Bob Smith, and Ciff Hawkins vs. Mack Collins. New Father Cracks Hammer Throw Record ORANGE (UPI)—Hal Connolly was a brand-new father trying to break his own world hammer throw record for his son. He failed, but he did get off his best official effort of the season. The throw came Saturday night in exhibition at the Orange Invitational Track Meet, just a day after Connolly's wife, Olga, had given birth to their first child. Connolly's mark Saturday was 218 feet, 5½ inches—more than seven feet shy of his world record. He said before the meet he was going to try to break it for his son, Mark. In team scoring, Cal Poly of Pomona won first place with 60 points. Claremont-Mudd had 42, Pasadena 39, San Fernando Valley State 35, La Verne 27, Chapman 17, Biola 13, Westmont &. Flip Asked In case of such a tie, Pomona has asked for a flip of the coin to decide who shall reign as champ and represent the league in the approaching CIF AA Play-offs. Mater Dei, on the other hand, wants no part of a flip and will ask CIF Southern Division commissioner Ken Fagans to allow both teams to enter the play-offs or arrange for a special elimination game between the Monarchs and Spartans. As for tomorrow's fray, the Monarchs will rule as prohibitive favorites against the cellar dwelling St. Francis Knights. However, the latter club has suddenly begun to make some noise. In their last outing, the La Canada "hine" drilled St. Paul's 9 to 0 in an upset on the winner's diamond. When Mater Dei and St. Francis met in the first round, the local forces routed the Knights 12 to 1. Expected to go for the Robertsmen against the Knights is right hander Jack Neal who, in his last outing, shut out potent Mary Star the Sea 7 at Memorial. Neal leads all Monarch pitchers with a 7 win - no loss recorded to date, and has been the sharpest of the MD chuckers all season. 2000 Angry Fans Storm Front Office NAGOYA, Japan (UPI) — Two thousand angry fans stormed the office of the Chunichi Baseball Stadium Sunday after the second game of a doubleheader between the Chunichi Dragons and Yomiuri Giants was called in the fourth inning because of darkness. They broke windows and seats to support their demands for free tickets to another game to replace the no-contest game. The riot squad was called, but the crowd refused to leave until stadium officials handed out bleacher tickets for any other game this season. Lynch Belts Game-Winner Cincinnati's Jerry Lynch blasted out a three-run homer in the last of the ninth Saturday in the opening of the doubleheader to give the Reds a 6-3 victory and three straight wins over the visiting Dodgers. The Dodgers captured their lone win off the Reds in their four-game series by taking the nightcap 7-1 behind the 10-hit pitching of Danny McDevitt, who went course for his fifth victory of the season. In the opener, the Dodgers were leading 3-2 at the top of the seventh on a homer by Wally Moon and a two-run homer by Don Zimmer when Redleg outfielder Vada Pinson hit his fourth homer of the year off Clem Labine to knot the score. Labine, the third Dodger hurler in the game and the loser, held the Redleg scoreless into the ninth when Johnny Temple doubled. Pinson was intentionally walked and Lynch ended it with his three-run homer. Dodger starter Stan Williams walked six and gave up a run in the first and third before retiring in the sixth. Bobby Mabe was the winner. Pinson Finally Stopped Pinson, who had a sensational streak of getting on base 12 straight times, finally was stopped by McDevitt in the fifth of the nightcap when he hit a pop fly.

Maxwell, who owned an anemic .136 batting average going into the twin bill, tied a major league record by hitting home runs in four consecutive times at bat to help the beleaguered Tigers sink the proud world champions, 4-2 and 8-2.

The Colony has been able to do something the Grovers were unable to accomplish, this being knocking off the high-flying Saints, and this could be an interesting point of discussion prior to tomorrow's tussle.

In his spare time he plays right field. Slmiger Goes Elated to assume mound duties for Garden Grove is Wells Sloniger, who is one of the better hurlers in the Sunset Loop. Anaheim will also be paced by the hitting talents of such men as Don Grothe, Rickie Scheffler, Bob Baker, Tom Lambeth and Chuck Smith.

While Colonyville is fighting it out with Garden Grove, Merk's Pioneers still with a good chance of winning Freeway Loop honors, will be meeting Orange in the final battle between the two this season. Orange defeated Western 1-0 during their first meeting, but the Pioneers knocked off Orange 3-2 on Dennis Painter's three-hitter during the second meeting.

Ramos also was ejected for throwing a baseball at Gordon. The Indians won the opener, 5-0, but lost the second game, 3-1. The Kansas City Athletics beat the Boston Red Sox, 7-3, and the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Chicago White Sox, 4-2, in 10 innings in American League single games. In the National League players streamed on to the diamond twice to "settle" beanball disputes involving manager Solly Hemus of the St. Louis Cardinals and pitcher Bennie Daniels of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh won the first game, 4-3 in 10 innings; the second game was suspended because of the Pennsylvania curfew law with the Cards ahead, 2-1, after 6½ innings. Lew Gets Another Win Lew Burdette ran his record to 5-0 in pitching the Milwaukee Braves to a 9 victory over the San Francisco Giants; the Cincinnati Reds beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-3; then lost the nightcap, 7-1; and the Philadelphia Phillies rallied to edge the Chicago Cubs, 5-4; after losing a 4-3 decision. Pierall,"dusted off" by a Rams pitch, angrily charged out to the mound, bat in hand. Gordon joined the argument and said something that caused Ramos to throw a ball at him. Both dugouts emptied and fists flew. Washington pitcher John Romonsky later was fined $50 by umpire Ed Hurley for intentionally throwing at a hitter. The rhubarb overshadowed Jim (Mudcat) Grant's two-hit pitching in the opener. Washington scored three unearned runs to beat come-back-bent Mike Garcia in the nightcap. Reliever Dick Hyde saved the victory for Hal Griggs after Rocky Colavito hit his sixth homer in the ninth. Daniels and Hemus had to be restrained from throwing punches after the Cards' player-manager was hit on the thigh by a first-inning pitch. Another Daniels pitch "shaved." Solly in the sixth and on the next serve the bat flew out of his hands and in the direction of the mound. Face Wins In Relief Both teams and Forbes Field police rushed out on the field to preserve order, but could not prevent Larry Jackson of the Cards and coach Len Levy of the Pirates from shoving each other around.

(UPI)—The National Boxing Association today vacated Sugar Ray Robinson's world middleweight championship because of his failure to defend it as required, NBA President Dr. Ward Wylie announced today. "The National Boxing Association is withdrawing its recognition from Robinson as champion," Dr. Wylie said. Dr. Wylie then announced that the NBA would recognize as new champion the winner of a fight between former title-holder Carmen Basilio, Chittenango, N.Y., and Gene Fullmer, West Jordan, Utah. The NBA president added that the Basilo-Fullmer victor would be required to defend within 90 days against a challenger selected by the NBA. He said that challenger might be Spider Webb, Chicago who is rated third among 100-pound contenders. Robinson, who was 39 years old Sunday, hasn't defended in more than 13 months. He failed to make a defense since he recaptured the title from Basilo March 25, 1958 despite the NBA rule which requires the champion of each division to defend at least once every six months.
