Olson Winner Over Hairston In Sixth NEW YORK. UP — Carl Bobo Olson of Honolulu, who became No. 1 miiTdleweight contender by stopping Eugene Silent Hairston in the sixth round, wanted to know today wheather champion Ray Robinson would defend or retire. ■ ThatT* what Olson and Manager Sid Flaherty said this morning as they boarded a plane for Los Angeles after a short conference with promoter Jim Norris. "Norris and the New York boxing commision will find out soon from Robinson whether he, will defend against Olson or whether he will hang up his gloves,” Flaherty explained, “And if we can’t get a shot at Robinson, Olson may go after Joey Maxim’s light heavyweight title.” \ Olson, 24-year-old Swedish Portuguese from Hawaii, became heirapparent to the middleweight throne Wednesday night by gashing the outside corner -of young Hairston's right- brow so badly referee Ray Miller stopped the bout at the end of the sixth round in Madison Square Garden, Three Whistling left hookk sliced the brow at 20 seconds of the fourth round. It bled so profusely thereafter that Dr. Vincent Nardiello examined the gash at the end of the fourth, fifth and sessions. Then he advised Miller to stop the bout.' A* Olson scaled 160 pounds to Hairston’s 160 1-2. , Hairston, 23-year-old Negro deafmute Os New York, had been rated No. 1 contender for several months; and Olson No. 2. Nevertheless. Olson went into the ring favored at 12 to 5 before 5,788 spectators, mostly American Legionnaires. The bobbing and weaving Hawaiian kept .inside Hairston’s hooking attack and gave him a thorough battering, particularly after Hairston became handicapped by the brow-gash in the fourth. The right side of his face »became masked with blood that spattered over both fighters and over some of the ringside writers. A gross gate of $20,248 wa* paid for the widely televised bout in which Hairston suffered the third knockout and 12th defeat of his 62 professional bouts. Olson registered his 24th kayo and 48th victory in 53 bouts. >

Schedule All In Favor Os Cleveland By UNITED PRESS One month from today the frantic flag chase will be all over in 1 the American League and, although lag by two full games the of ten and inefficient Indians looked like good bets to win because the schedule is in their favor on two counts. \ First, the Indians play most of their 29 remaining games with the two tattered tail-enders-li with last place Detroit and five with seventh place St. Louis. They have only 13 games with the so-called hot clubs-one the Yankees, two apiece with Boston and Washington, three' with Philadelphia, and five with Chicago. Second, the Indians will be back home for 20 of those 29 stretch games. , The picture for the Yankees as they bid for their fourth straight pennant under Manager Casey Stengel is not nearly so bright. They must play 23 of their 27 remaining games with the “hot shots” and have only four left with the laggards-two in Detroit and two in St. Lohis. What’s more, the Yankees, who haven’t done too well on the road this year but usually recoup their losses at home have to play 18 of their 27 games in foreign pastures Nine of the Yankee games are with the tough Athletics and strong pitching-six in Philadelphia. Six more are with the still strong contending Red Sok-three in Hostbn. *They have five to go with the spunky Senators and a tough Western road trip ahead with two games at Chicago, one at Cleveland, and two apiece with the Tigers and Browns. But Wednesday, nevertheless, ithe Yankees looked like the champs and the Indians the chumps. The Yankees,,who admittedly had little to beat, came from behind on ; two homers by Yogi Berra to batter the Browns 12 to 7, nullifying a five-run St. Louis rally in the second that kayoed ace Allie Reynolds. Berta how has 27 homers, putting him a tie for the league lead with Larry Doby. Cleveland went in front, then blew the mar Jin and. lost 6 to 5. Ex-Cleveland outfielder Allie Clark hit a three-run double for the big blow in the winning inning. Lefty Alex Kellner settled down after the rough start and held Cleveland to four hits for his 10th victory. ‘ . The Red Sox jmoved to within 1 games «t•. ' Cleveland and stayed 3 % behind the Yankees with a 5 to 0 six-hit vfctory for lefty Mel Parnell over the In the 1 National League, the Giants cut Brooklyn’s lead to 9 1-2, games with a 5 to 4 victory at Pittsburgh while the Cubs were topping the Dodgers 10 to 5 and ending their five-game winning streak. At St. Louis, the Cards bowed to the Phillies 7 to 2 while the Braves beat the Reds 12 to 7 in 10 innings. In the only other American League game, the White Sox beat the Senators- 4 to 1. The Cubs made 15 hits including two triples and a single by Dee Fondy and four singles by ex-Dodger Tommy Brown.. Roy Campanella IjR a Dodger homer. Curt * Simmons won his 11th game for Philadelphia the Cardinals lost their fifth straight and dropped 11 1-2 games behind the Dodgers. Wilmer Mizell lost his first game since May 26. Sid Gordon and Sibby Sisti led the Braves with four hits each and Sheldon Jones received credit for his first victory of the sason when £ho

Braves scored five runs in the 10th. In Washington, relief pitcher Harry Dorish pitched ball from the first to the eighth inning to win his sixth game for the White Sox. ■ Rauch infant Dies At Home Wednesday Sharon Louise Rauch, &>ur-nwnth-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. It-vin Rauch, diet! at 11:30 . 1 ’ c ■ , ■ \ •-
