NEW YORK. Aug. II (AP).-
The State Athletic Commission
today suspended the promoters
license Of Rosensohn Enter
prises. Inc, and the match
makers license Of Bill Rosen-
sohn.
Rosensohn promoted the June
26 heavyweight title fight at
Yankee Stadium in which Inge-
mar Johansson knocked out
Floyd Patterson.
The Athletic Commission and
District Attorney Frank Ho-
gan's Office both are investi-
eating the promotional back
ground Of the fight.
Gen. Melvin Krulewitch,
commission chairman. said the
commission took the action be-
cause of a violation of COM
mission rules.
Based on Public Statements
In a terse statement, Krule-
witch said:

Isuspends the promoters license
of Rosensohn Enterprises, Inc,
and the matchmaker's license
of william P. Rosensohn.
ANY action on the revoca-
ton of these licenses will await
completion of investigations
now being conducted"
Asked what statements by
Rosensohn were referred to, a
commission spokesman replied
that the statements were made
by Rosensohn in a signed ar
ticle in the magazine Sports
Illustrated ana also IN the
press. He declined to point to
any specific statement made by
Rosensohn in these articles.
Rosensohn, who now is va
cationing in Cannes. France,
said on August 4 that he un-
willingly signed away control
Of Rosensohn Enterprises so
that the Johansson-P Patterson
fight could be held.
The 39-year-old promoter
also resigned as president. 1t
turned out that Rosensohn had
only one-third of the stock of
the company and two-thirds
was owned by lawyer Vincent
Velella of New York.

Geiger Makes Good
The Red Sox owner can take

fast-developing youngster is
hitting ..279, with 10 home runs
and SO runs batted In.

the regular centerfield job in
Cleveland to Tito Francona, is
hitting only .240. with three

Geiger and Wertz played key
roles in the Red Sox' near
