next season. This means that, in
most cases, they will come away
dragging a deficit for the trip, and
it accounts for the pronounced abb

The visiting club in the Ameri-

in the campaign recently closed
enticed a total of only 323, 900 fans
through their home turnstiles, and
it requires only a little simple
arithmetic to show why the popu-

Breaking down the total, we find
that an average of only 400 fans
per game watched the AS battle

and that the visiting club collected
only SIPS for each nine-inning ef-

New York Nav
Put End To
|KnockdOwn Rule

NEW YORK, R-Boxing's three
knockdown rule which, except for
championship bouts, automatically
ends bout after a fighter has hit
the deck three times in one round,
appeared doomed today-at least
in New York State.
"The automatic three-knockdown
rule must co." thundered Robert
Christenberry, chairman of the
New York State Athletic Commis-
sion, ''knockouts must be left to
the discretion of the referee. l be-
lieve it is difficult to differentiate
between a nockdown and a half
push"
ChriStenberry found himself in
volved in comic opera situation
after, last nights scheduled 10 :
round welterweight scrap at st.
Nicholas Arena between Gerald
Dreyer of South Africa and Ra.
mon Tiscareno Of Los Angeles.
Dreyer was declared winner on
TkO when Tiscareno went down
for the third time as the bell ended
the first round. Then things hap.
pened fast. Before quiet was re.
stored, Dreyer's manager and Sec
onds were uSpe n d e d, Referee
Petey Scalzo pleaded "don't put
me on the spot" and the 1000 or
so spectators, along with the tele-
vision audience, weren't quite sure
exactly what had happened.
The best explanation is that Seal
20 caused the confusion himself.
He properly declared Dreyer the
winner under the rule stopping a
fight when one fighter is knocked
down three times in one round.
Instead Of leaving well enough
alone, Scalzo glanced toward
Christenberry, who was at ring
side.
The spectators Immediately be.
gan shouting their disapproval, SO
Scalzo went to Dreyer's corner and
told Manager Willie Ketchum and
second Ted Bentham:

This set off Ketchum, who be.

For or"Balanced
Attack" Today

CHICAGO R-ProfesSional foot
ball teams have become pass
crazy in the last decade, but there
is nothing like a balanced attack,
says George Halas, owner-coach
of the Chicago Bears.
HalaS should know. He saw his
Bears shackle San Francisco for
30 minutes Sunday only to fold un-
der the 49ers' devastating ground
game.
Are the pros returning to run
ming?
"They meyer left it," said Halas
in an interview. "Any team that
has a good ground game will util-
ize it and San Francisco has a
great running game"
"But remember, they've got
some pretty good passing. We had
them bottled up Sunday but they've
got balance and it paid off,"
The Bears stymied San Fran
cisco's passing attack in the first
half and walked off the field with
a 17-i4 lead. The 49ers, although
outplayed, had scored once on an
intercepted pass and again when
Hugh McElhenny broke loose for a
long touchdown run.
Other than those two plays, il
was strictly Chicago's game. Y.
A. Titles passes weren't clicking
and it looked like a bad afternoon
for the Californians.
Then San Francisco, with rookie
Maurie Duncan leading, pounded
the left side of the Bear line mer-
cilessly and scored a quick II
points in the third quarter to ice
the contest. And they did it by
running.
McElhenny, John Henry Johnson
and Jet Joe Perry left the seers
who cry "You can't run in pro
football with their jaws hanging.
Not since the days of George Nc
Afee, Hugh Gallarnau and Norm
Standlee had Bear fans witnessed
such running power.

Cavilan, Saxton TV Title Match Set Wednesday

The 18th world championship Ii
tie contest in the Blue Ribbon Bout
series viii be nationally televised
on October 20 when welterweight
champion Kid Gavilan meets john
ny Saxton in Convention Hall, Phi
ladelphia.
The bout, originally slated to be
fought in early September, was
postponed when Gayilan was floAr-
ed by q case Of mumps. An esti-
mated 40 million TV eight fans
will view this welterweight title
bout over q coast to coast chain
Of 100 CBS-Tv stations.
One Of the most colorful of all
fighters, Gavilan makes the sew
enth defense Of his crown against
challenger Saxton. He will also
make his 117th ring appearance
and seeks his Tooth victory. In
1851, the Cuban Hawk defeated Bill
ly Graham in Is rounds to become
the first representative of his coun-
try to hold world title.
Currently rated the best active
boxer, Gavilan is considered by
many to be the greatest welter-
weight champion. The 28-year-oid
champion began fighting when he
was u. A master boxer, Gavilan's
ability to take a punch is awe
some.
In his career, which includes more
than $50 amateur and professional
contests, Gavilan has been aoored
only twice and has never been
knocked out. Possessed with amaz-
ing speed, the Cuban Hawk punch
es extremely well and is noted for
his bombastic balo punch.
Actually, this exaggerated punch
does little damage - the Kid wins
his battles with accurate left hooks
and straight rights. In his 116 fights
the champion has won SO, lost IA
drew 5 and scored n kayo VIC
tories.
Like Gavilan, Saxton is a ring
perfectionist. His long amateur
training has helped the 24.year-old
fighter as he climbed up the wei
terweight ladder. With his perfect
left jab, good hook and expert
combinations, Saxton gets his big
chance in his first title match.
AS a pro, Johnny ran up a string
OF 40 consecutive wins before los
ing to Gil Turner, on a split de-
cision. The Newark born, Brook
iyn-raised youngster does his best
lighting in close where his power
fui body blows slow down his op-
ponents.
A hard puncher with tremendous
speed, Saxton boasts a record ct
4S victories in n fights. He has
won 10 starts by knockout.

AUGUSTA, Ca, R-The South
Atlantic League, sometimes called
the Grandmother Of the Minors, "
called Bill Terry to become its
president and be accepted prompt
.ly.
League directors yesterday voted
unanimously for the man who won
a place in baseball's Hall of Fame
for his career with the New York
Giants.
Big Bill. made himself immortal
as first baseman for the Giants,
and then succeeded the late John
.McGraw as their manager.
Retired from baseball for the
past 13 years, Terry is an auto
mobile dealer in Jacksonville, Fla.
He will take office about Nov.
1. He succeeds Dick Butler as pres
ident of the Class A Sally. Butler
resigned recently to become pres
League.
Terry is 5s years old. He was
born in Atlanta Oct. 30, 1898, and
got his first job In baseball as
a pitcher for the Atlanta Crackers
of the Southern Association at the
age of is.
He played with Shreveport, To-
ledo, and other minor league clubs
before joining the New York Giants
in 1923. He won the National
League batting championship in
1880 with a .4O1 average. No Ma
tional League player has hit 400
since then.
Terry became manager of the
Giants when McGraw became Ill
in June, 1882. The next year the
Giants won the National League
pennant and also the world cham
pionship by defeating Washington
in the World Series.
Terry led the Giants to league
pennants in 1885 and 1887 but lost
the World Series to the New York
Yankees both times.
Sports writer's elected him 10
baseball's Hall Of Fame last sum-
mer.

bia, SC, to Jacksonville so he
can give "as much time as possible
to the job"
Sally directors also voted to ex-
pertinent with the Shaughnessy

one game, with the pennant winner
playing the third place club and
the runnerup playing the fourth
place team. The playoff finals will
be for the best two of three games
instead of the customary four of

worked out when they convene
again at the minor league meeting
in Houston, Tex.
