WHY PATTERSON WON'T
FIGHT FOR lBC

Let's stop and think about
Floyd Patterson being the young
est heavyweight champion the
world has ever known. Joe Louis
was the youngest TO ever take
on the heavyweight crown be-
fore Patterson came along.
The Brown Bomber al % had
heavyweight n Eight, weight
reach and more maturity than
our present champion has at Fl
years of age.
Floyd fought and beat all
available heavyweights Of a
poor lot before he was forced,
by public demand, TO fight for
the title.
He took the title by knocking
out ageless Archie Moore. The
public should realize that Pat
terson was at least two years
ahead of himself when he won
the championship, and then they
will understand why his man
ager Gus D'Amato is being care
full bringing him along.
Floyd needs more schooling.
And no one knows that better
than D'Amato. We might c9h
Patterson premature cham
pion or a champ on his way up
The average heavyweight
comes into his own between the
ages of "a and %. BY the time
Floyd is "a. he will have picked
up the right >amount of expert
cnce and over a million dollars.
We would say this is nice
pickings with hand-picked oppon-
ents by DAmato. Fighting pub
lie bouts with Hurrican Jackson
for over 100000, Pete Racher-
maker at S250000, and Roy liar-
ris at 3ll,000 is a lot better ex.
perience than those secret fights
D'Amato admitted having Pat
terson engage in with top-rank
ing heavyweights.
When Gus thinks his tiger is
ready, he will take them on
and probably become as great a
fighter as Joe Louis. People
give a manager credit who bring
d young fighter along carefully
to get him to the top.
Why not give credit to one
who is bringing a premature
champion carefully. Patterson is
a baby champion and he should
be allowed to grow up like any
other baby.
4 We think after DAmato brings
Floyd back from London he will
fight for the lBC or the CWS or
any other outfit you can name.

Alaska ASc conllIlihet Reappoinied for '58, Local Men Named

The Alaska Agricultural Stab ilization and Conservation Office has received word that the Secre- tary of Agriculture has reappoint- ed the members of the Alaska ASC Committee. for 1858. Members of the committee are appointed on an annual basis by the Secretary. Members reappointed are Philip R. Johnson, Mile B, Richardson Highway, Fairbanks as chairman, and John D. Nash of Palmer and Vernon s. Mutch of Anchor Point as members. Dr. Allan H. Mick, director of the Alaska Agri- cultural Extension Service serves as an ex-officio member.
 The Alaska ASC Committee ad- ministers Federal agricultural programs involving direct service to Alaska farmers. Two programs the Agricultural Conservation Program and the National Wood Program are presently active in Alaska. Under the ACP the Fed eral government: shares with All aSkan farmers the cost of various conservation practices such as land clearing, ditching, drilling livestock wells, etc. Normally the government pays approximately 50 percent of the cost of approved practices. This program is execut- ed by county ASC committees at Palmer, Fairbanks, and Homer. Each county committee is com posed of three farmers elected by the farmers participating in the program and the local extension agent.
 Alaskan ASC Committees were originally established as PIMA Committes in 1852. Original mem bers of the state committee were Bert Stimple of Fairbanks as chairman, and Simon Newcomb of Palmer and Edward w. Lie benthal of Anchor Point as mem bers. Stimple resigned in Sep tembers 1853 and was replaced as chairman by Johnson in January, 1884, Liebenthal took a position as district agricultural Extension agent at Home in October, 1853, and resigned from the commit tee. He was replaced in Febru- ary, 1854. by Vernon s. Much of Anchor Point. Newcomb served through 1855 but at his request was not reappointed for 1856 as he, went Outside. John D. Nash was. appointed in January, 1856, to replace him Dr. Mick has ser we'd as an ex-officio member Of the committee since its establish ment.
 The Territorial and county ASC committees are today perman- ent part. of the Alaskan agricul tural organization. The Depart ment of Agriculture has repeated tly stated it will continue to op- crate programs directly involving farmers through these farmer committees. These committees also provide Alaskan agriculture with a valuable channel to Wash ington as, these camnitsees can and do recommend agricultural and notifications of applicable 10 Alaska.
