Kid GaviIan 81 10 |
To Beat BasiIio at
Syracuse Tonight
By the Associnfed Press

SYRACUSE, NJ Y. Sept. 18.-
Kid Gavilan is looking past to-
nights welterweight title defense
against rugged Carmen Basilio
of nearby Canastota toward a
double world championship.
The Cuban has designs on the
middleweight crown if he gets
past Basilio in a 15-round bout
that will be seen and heard ma
tionally by radio (ABC) and tele-
vision (NBC) at 10 pm. (Wash-
ington time). Syracuse and a
100-mile area will be blacked
out on TV.
(The fight will be on tele-
vision in Washington over
WNBW and on radio over
WMAL.)
If Gavilan wins, he is obligated
to risk his 147-pound title
against Johnny Bratton within
so days, but he and his manager.
Angel Lopez, already are talking
about bigger game.
Winner Must Meet BrattOn.
AS Gavilan is a 31a-to-1 favor
ite to dispose of another local
hero before the home folks, he
can afford to look ahead. If Ba-
silio, 26-year-old son of an onion
farmer, upsets him, it will be
Garments turn to do the talking.
The winner must fight Bratton
next under terms of an agree
ment with the New York State
Athletic Commission.
"Gavilan can beat either Bobo
Olson or Randy Turpin," Lopez
says. IF he went on to win the
middleweight title, l would have
him retire quick. He would be a
great hero in Cuba as a double
champ"
Turpin and Olson meet at
Madison Square Garden next
month for the 160-pound title
vacated by Sugar Ray Robinson.
Gavilan, of course, would have to
give up his welter title If he
should win another.
In this section, they think
Gavilan is no cinch to breeze
past Basilio. a game, determined
ex-Marine who is superbly con-
ditioned for the big effort OF his
life.

victory with a 30 conquest of
the White Sox last night at
Griffith Stadium before a smat-
tering of 3,345 fans. 1t marked
the first time in 20 years that a
Washington pitcher had won
more than 20 games.
Only the pennant-winning
Yankees and, ironically, the Gel
lar-dwelling Browns will show
an edge over Bob for the year.
The Yankees lost only twice to
him and administered five of
his 10 defeats, while st. Louis
ended with a 81 mark against
Porterf1eld.
Yanks Reap Some Benefit.
The Yankees doubtless are
annoyed that they let Porterfield
get away, but their regrets are
tempered by Bob's performance
against the champions rivals.
Against Cleveland, Chicago and
Boston Porterfield compiled a
1872 record. Against New Yorks
chief competition-the Indians
and White Sox-Bob had a 10-1
mark.
Porterfield isn't slated to see
action in Philadelphia over this
week end. Idle today, the Mats

Dresser said he understood

The Mats first baseman
has six games remaining, all

with the Tigers and two
with the White Sox, and the
pressure is all on AL, who

Based on each player bat

their remaining games, Ver-

By MerreII WhittIesey

Maryland'S Missouri bound
football squad left this morning
from National Airport, hopeful
that the experts were right in
making the Terps a seven-point
favorite to whip the Tigers at
Columbia tomorrow in the open
ing game of the season for both
teams.
The game, which gets under
way at 4 pm. Washington time,
will be heard on radio over Sta
ton WMAL, with Jim Gibbons
doing the play by play.
It promised to be long, tiring
day for the Maryland players,
for the trip is a two-jump jour-
ney. The first leg is to st. Louis
by air and the second is a 120-
mile bus trip to Columbia which
takes longer than the three-and-
a-half-hour plane ride.
Coach Jim Tatum's plan to
shorten the journey for his first
two teams by taking a smaller
plane out of St. Louis was baked
by repair work at the Columbia
airport, forcing it to close tenn
porarily.
Tatum Not Optimistic.
'Tatum was not sure his squad
is ready to face a team as tough
as Missouri. His own illness,
which kept him in the hospital
more than a week, plus the fact
that the Tigers have been
pointing for the game, and the
added bad news that Columbia
is having hot spell will be
working against Maryland
Tatum thinks the team is a week
behind in preparations for the
game.
1--WE ran out of time" the
coach said after the Terps' final
practice session yesterday was
cut to two hours because he was
afraid the boys had put in too
tough a week. They will not
practice today, of course, as
Tatum teams never work out the
day before a game.
Joe Blair, Maryland's sports
publicist, gave Tatum bad news
last night when he called from
Columbia and said the tempera-
ture was 81 there. The Terp
coach hopes to use his top team
as long as possible, but it will
have to have early help if it
remains that hot.
The only change in the in
jured players was that Lynn
Beightol has recovered from a
sore stomach and will be avail
able at quarterback if needed
He may be used on offense, but
probably will not stay in the
game on defense in this first
