Sports Will Get Black Eye In Liston-Patterson Match A so-called world's heavyweight prize fight championship is in the making between Floyd Patterson and Sonny Liston. This should never be permitted. Prize fighting at best is a brutal sport and a crooked, corrupt business. Too many convicts, racketeers, and unsavory underworld characters are connected with the boxing business. One fighter after another has testified that he participated in "fixed" fights for the sole benefit of big time gamblers and those who feast on dollars gained from boxing scandals. Threats, blackmail and even threats of murder and kidnapping are not uncommon in today's boxing business. Sonny Liston is a former convict. He has a long list of arrests, charges, convictions, sentences, fines and suspended fines or sentences. While he is currently at liberty, he has frequent brushes with the law. If he were to fight Patterson, the heavyweight champion, and win, his conduct probably would be unbearable. His example to youth would be extremely bad. Several former champions, including Rocky Marciano, have stated publicly that the match should not be made or staged. Personally, we should like to see all professional boxing eliminated, and especially in California. The so-called sport is no credit to sports generally or to the good name of California. If a man with Liston's record has attitude generally should become heavyweight champion of the world there would be a further decline in views in this country. More and more people would begin to believe that winning is all-important and that success is gardless of how achieved is the only portant measuring stick. We hope that Liston never climbs into the ring for a shot at heavyweight title. But undoubtedly the match will staged. Why? Because when enoughed promotion and ballyhoo has been achieved and a gate of at least seven million dollars is assured, the fight be held regardless of the outcome following consequences. Are we so money-mad that noth save sheer dollars has any meaning? Not that our voice will change course of this lamentable fight, but do wish that the fight never is held at that boxing is thrown out of California except for amateur bouts. As we said at the beginning, fight game today is a rotten, sore brutal business run largely by crook operators out to squeeze the last dollar from any given market regardless how the goals are achieved — by four crooked means.

Brailsford, seaman, California rights to coordinate water conservation and development would be impaired by Senate Bill 2246, the so-called "Water Resources Planning Act" now under consideration by the U.S. Senate Interior and Insular Affairs Committee, according to the California State Chamber of Commerce. The proposed legislation has been opposed by the Chamber's Board following a recommendation by the Statewide Water Resources Committee, headed by Robert L. Minckler of Los Angeles. While agreeing that coordination of water development is essential, the Chamber is concerned by the methods by which the Bill proposes it be achieved, Minckler said. Water development in California is presently assisted by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Corps of Army Engineers, and th Soil Conservation Service, giving the State an outstanding irrigated agricultural economy. The proposed legislation would provide for commissions, with members selected from Federal Agencies, which would place the State in a subordinate position in carrying out its own program.

The energetic promoter has scheduled a forum for bowlers on Saturday and Sunday, Mar. 2-4, from 2 to 4 p.m. and will serve a free buffet and refreshments so that he may talk to the bowlers direct and answer any questions on the classic. Kosof is inviting both men and women bowlers — all they have to do is show their ABC or WBC cards to enjoy the free buffet at the plush Red Coach Inn dining room at La Habra "300" Bowl. Kosof has already mailed thousands of entry blanks and brochures to bowlers throughout the nation, but he feels he can more fully explain the classic's format by talking directly to the bowlers and answering any of their questions. He will explain his "early hard" bonuses for those who bowl by April 30, his equitable handicap system, the $8,000 award for a $300 game, various events besides his famous 2-game singles, extra prize money for full squads, and explanation of rules among other things.

Weaver To Be Star at Show Once in a blue moon comes such a personality as Cliff Arquette, better known to millions of television fans as "The Wild Old Man." Cliff, alias Charlie Weaver, will be the stellar attraction Friday, March 23, at the annual National Orange Show which opens in San Bernardino March 15 for an 11-day run. Arquette has been building his solid legion of admirers for forty years since he left his home town of Toledo to become a professional entertainer. Proof that the public is "real gone" on Charlie Weaver is the fact that his new book, "Everything Is Fine in Mount Idy" is a sell out at book stands everywhere. Charlie leaves the audience paralyzed with laughter as he delivers his "Dear Mama" letters on the stage. Deaths MADIGAN, Ruth Theresa, 50, of 813 S.
