Club was in the process of being
ordered to disband, and Gus
D'Amato. Patterson's manager,
was eager to help in its demise
He liked our proposal and the
bout was signed.
If l win. and I have every
confidence that I will, believe
it will be a great thing for box

/ am sure it will bring a lot
of young fellows into boxing. II

small clubs would get started
Most important, it will further
remove the IBC from a place In
boxing.
I have played big-time col
lege football. I love to fight,
like to ski, to water-ski. to hum
and to fish. I can garden. sew
and cook. Even though In

I'd make an excellent bachelor

Keegon Says

Wait

CHICAGO. Aug. 81 (R.-
Everything seems to come late
for Bob Keegan. 36-year-old
White Sox pitcher who last
night twirled 60 no-hit VIC
tory over the Senators.
Keegan, who didn't break
into the majors until he was
81, doesn't mind waiting"
you just have to hang in
there and the breaks will come
your way" Bob said after his
masterpiece.
Unlike most pitchers who
deny knowledge Of working on
no-hitters. Keegan said after
the game:
II knew I had a no-hitter
going from the first inning on
the only trouble was pitch
ing it,"
The big Highlander from
Rochester. N. Y. first donned
a major league uniform with
the Sox in 1853 and fashioned
a Us record. He had a 1919
mark in 1854 but slumped into
comparative mediocrity until
his no-hitter, in which he
faced only % batters, walked
two and struck out one.
Manager AL Lopez, celebrat-
ing his 49th birthday, said.
Thanks. Bob. That sure was
a nice birthday present"
Vice President Chuck Comis-
KEY congratulated Keegsn and
said the effort would not go
unrewarded.
you have to be lucky to
get a no-hitter," Keegan said,
land I had my share of luck. I"
Keegan said he didn't throw
a single curve and relied
mainly on his sinking fast ball.
II threw nothing but the sink
ing fast ball and five or six
palm balls"
Keegan's only strikeout came
in the ninth on a palm ball
he fed Pinch-hitter Julio Bee
quer.
He pitched a great game"
said Sherm Lollar. who caught
his first major league no-hitter.
He had those guys hitting
the ball into the ground all
