SAN FRANCISCO R-The world
lightweight boxing championship
was back in familiar surroundings
today-in the possession of Jimmy
Carter of New York.
The 3O-year-old kingpin from
Harlem regained the title last night
when he battered Paddy DeMarco

Referee Ray Flores halted the

Carter now stands as the only
lightweight king to win the crown
three times. He won it originally
from Ike Williams in 1851. lost Il
to Lauro Salas in 1852, rega;ned ii
six months later and then sur
rendered the honor to his rival
from Brooklyn.
Twice Carter had his man on
the deck-from a whistling left
hook to the chin in the ninth for
a four-count, and with a barrage
of punches just as the bell ended
the 14th.
The knockdown in the ninth, the
second in Paddy's career OF some
SO fights, signaled the outcome.
The battering in the 14th spelled
out the finish and actually the
technical knockout in the 18th was
aniclimactic.
Carter called his victory the big
gest thrill since he started boxing
III 1916.
His manager Willie Ketchum
said he has no immediate plans for
Jimmy but he is definitely inter-

Sooners end their eighth season
under Coach Bud wilkinson with

Iowa over Notre Dame: Notre

Figures Show

NEW YORK R-wagering at
thoroughbred race tracks dropped
FL per cent from last year but
the states revenue scared to a
new high as pari-mutuel betting
exceeded two billion dollars for
the second time in history.
The figures are not yet complete
for the year, since the horses are
still running in four states, but a
survey by the Associated Press
showed the tresuries of "a states
received $14O, ,146,751 from the ST.

were estimated on Maryland, Cal
ifornia, Rhode Island and West
Virginia, which have not finished
their seasons.
At the same time attendance
dropped .37 per cent from 1885,
466 in 1858 to 2S,2S9, ,216 this year.
Wagering in 1853 reached So, :

the states where pari-mutuel wa

The figures do not include those
from harness racing tracks.
The increase in the states share
is due in part to larger tax bites
in New York, New Jersey and
Kentucky.
Wagering was up in IL states,
down in the same number. A doz-

attendance while IL said theirs
was lower.

took picture after picture, he posed
holding business-like carving

tall cake. He was one of the few
there who could have reached that
high.
And suddenly it was all over
Roberts and Mack's son, Earle,
helped him to his feet. A hush fell
over the crowd as Connie moved
windingly among the tables toward

gone and there didn't seem to be
nearly as much gayety in the room
as there had been earlier.

Sports
Roundup

NEW YORK R-If there is any,
thing of which the average red
blooded American is convinced
absolutely, it is that, given half
chance, he could do a great deal
better job of picking college foot
ball winners than the uniformed
misfits who get paid for putting
down their predictions week after
week.
So we have decided to offer him
small, simple exercise for this
coming Saturday.
All we're going to ask is four
winners out of four, and you can't
be much fairer than that. They
are Ohio State VS.. Michigan, Notre
Dame VS.. Iowa, UCLA VS.. use
and SMU VS.. Baylor. For the sake
of convenience, we have even
listed the favorites first. Pick the
four correctly and just see what
you get.
If our feeble arithmetic is some
where near right, your chances OF
breaking the bank are a little less
than $3.50.
You want to start with Ohio
State? Okay, and a very wise
choice it is. The Buckeyes have
tromped on eight straight teams.
They're really loaded and headed
for the Rose Bowl. Michigan has
been licked twice, by Army and
Indiana. Last week, though, the
Wolverines suddenly barred their
fangs and bit 1873 chunk out OF
Michigan State. They still are elig-
ible for the Rose Bowl too. But
don't let us throw you off.
You'll take Notre Dame because

lieves the Athletics will do much
better here than in Philadelphia
where they wound up in the Ameri-

81 think the enthusiasm of the
Kansas City fans will bring a
change in the clubs attitude, -
Boudreau said. II believe there
will be more effort put out and
that the club will show general
improvement. I'm not comparing
this situation with Milwaukee,
though. You have to remember
that they had sound ball club
when the move was made from
Boston"
The Milwaukee Braves climbed
from seventh place in the National
League to second in their first sea-
son at Milwaukee.
Boudreau, who formerly man
aged the Boston Red Sox and the
Cleveland Indians, had this to say
about the players inherited from
philadelphia:
II feel that some Of the players
are capable of doing better than
they did last season. I'm leaving
that up to the players. They'll have
