The two heavyweights ground to a 12-round draw Wednesday night at the Cow Palace which only proved several minor points. Machen, who went into the ring weighing 191% and was undefeated as a professional in 24 bouts, can't beat everybody. Neither can Folley, who scaled 194 and had been on a winning streak of 18 straight. The fight had been billed as one which would uncoyer the logical contender for Floyd Patterson's title. But Truman Gibson, executive secretary of the IBC, glumly isaid afterward, ‘‘Where does this leave us?” Machen is ranked the inumber one contender and Folley the number two man by both The Ring magazine and NBA. The crowd of about 13.000 began getting callouses on their hands clapping for action from the second round on. By the seventh the fans were booing and in the eighth some yelled for ex-amateur Pete Rademacher who vainly sought to win; the crown last summer from Pat-1 terson. In New York, Cus D’Amato, Patterson’s manager, said the fight showed what a good fighter Rademacher was. “I think tonight's bout showed clearly where both Machen and Folley should rate in the heavyweight division,” D'Amato said. After the pair of counter punchers had fallen out of their last clinch, judge Jack Downey called in a draw at 115 points' each, judge Fred Apostoli saw it for Folley 117-115, and referee Frankie Carter voted for Machen, 117116. The United Press voted for Machen, 117-115. Folley, of Chandler, Ariz.. was impressive during the first four rounds as he often shot the Californian's head back with solid left jabs and thudded heavy right hand counters to the same place. During this span Machen often fell short with right hand leads. It was after the eighth that Machen began to show more firK He belted Folley with two good left hooks in the ninth, and bathed him in the 10th with another volley of hooks. Folley slipped to the canvas in the later stage of this round but there was no count. Il you have something to sen o> rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — They bring results.

Warren Giles Optimistic On Season Outlook By WARREN C. GILES President of the National League Written for the United Press CINCINNATI (UP) — Bright prospects for another hard-fought pennant, battle; the debut of Los Angeles and San Francisco into the National League, and increased advance ticket sales by all our clubs, point toward a most successful season for the NL in 1958. Our Giants and Dodgers will receive a royal welcome in San Francisco and Los Angeles. The people of those areas are eager and ready for major-league baseball and I am confident that the interest will increase as the folks on jthe West Coast get a first-hand taste of big-league ball. This factor alone, would assure | one of the most interesting, seasons in the league’s 82-year history. In addition, however, we have every reason to anticipate another great pennant race — something that has become a National League trademark. Went Out on Limb Last year at this time, when I went out on a limb and predicted a race as closely contested as the one we enjoyed in 1956, I was branded an “optimist” in some quarters (You will recall that our 1956 championship wasn t decided until the final day of the season as the Dodgers, Braves and Redlets battled down to the wire.) Last year, although we didn’t have the spine-tingling finish, the race was another “four-star thriller”, or I should say "five-star thriller". Five of our clubs were “nip-and-tuck" all the way up to the first week in August and that had never happened before in all of major-league history. For several years now, I’ve been saying that the Nation al League's overall strength makes it the best balanced league I've ever seen. Our recent pennant races have borne out that contention, and 1958 should be no exception. — I believe it will be harder for Milwaukee to win in 1958 than it was in 1957 and I think the Braves realize it. They are a determined lot, but judging by what I saw of the Cardinals. Dodgers, I Reds and Phillies, we could easily have a repeat of last year s scramble. . Good Crop of Rookies In Florida this spring, I saw the best-looking crop of rookies in five years. That is a most healthy situation, not only proving that a supply of talent is there, but the presence of capable rookies presses the veterans into better performances As I see it, our new fans in I,os Angeles and San Francisco are going to be treated to a ‘“dig-dong" pennant race — the king that fans in the other cities have become accustomed to in the National League. Certainly, we are going to find n<>w enthusiasm in California the kind of enthusiasm which will permeate the entire league. I just don’t see how the National League can miss having one of its greatest seasons in 1958. Sixth NBA Playoff Game Is Sellout ST.

Hawks Edge Celtics For Playoff Lead BOSTON (IP — Slater Martin, smallest player in the National Basketball Association at 10 and ’ one of the oldest at 32, held the spotlight in the St. Louis Hawks’ third victory in their best-of-seven championship playoffs against the Boston Celtics. The “tiny” veteran played one of the finest games of his nineyear pro career Wednesday night in St. Louis’ 102-100 win. The triumph gave the Hawks a commanding 3-2 lead in the series which resumes Saturday night at St. Louis. Bob Pettit took game scoring honors with 33 points, eight more than Martin, but the speedy backcourt star was immense as a field general and in holding Boston’s Bob Cousy in check. “I don’t know if you could call it my best game ever,” said Martin. “but I know felt good out ; there and everything I did seemed to work out right.” . Giardello, Calhoun , Will Fight May 5 SAN FRANSCICO — (IP Mid- 1 dieweight contenders Joey Giar- ! dello of Philadelphia and Rory Calhoun of White Plains, N. Y., - have signed to meet in a non- ' televised 10-round fight at the ■ Cow Palaces, May 5. Five Children Die In Cleveland Fire Mother Saves One Child From Fire CLEVELAND, Ohio (IP — Five children in one family, all under seven years of age, died today in a fire that swept through their home here. Four of the children were trapped in an upstairs bedroom when the fire broke out while they were still in bed. The fifth child died in a downstairs bedroom. The victims, children of Arthur Hicks, 30, and his wife, Ann, 25, were Richard, 7; Robert, 6; Barbara Ann, 5; Roger Lee, 4, and Ronald. 4 months. The mother, after trying to rescue the children, rushed into the street carrying in her arms the only child who escaped, Christine, 18 months. Mrs. Hicks and the two youngest children were in the downstairs bedroom. A passerby climbed to a back porch roof in an effort to rescue the children as they screamed and tore at the bedroom window screen. Hicks, a machinist, had left for his job.

Aaron Pounds Braves To Win Over Dodgers By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer Hammering Hank Aaron thinks he ll hit “around 345 or .350” and at the pace he’s going now, rival pitchers will gladly settle for that. The Milwaukee slugger socked his eighth home run of the spring and his third in as many games Wednesday to lead the Braves to a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dallas. Aaron also had a single, for two of the five hits Milwaukee was able to 'muster off four Dodger pitchers. “I figure if I can get off to a good start I have a chance to lead the league in hitting,” Aaron declares. A “chance” the man says. Who’s he kidding? Outside of Stan Musial, he’s the most logical candidate to capture the crown. Even Musial, who won the title last year with a .351 average, says Aaron is.the man he must beat oUt. The White Sox came up with seven runs in the fourth inning to beat the Cardinals, 10-6 at Denver. Redleg Win Marred Southpaw Harvey Haddix pitched Cincinnati to a five-hit 2-0 triumph over Washington but the Redleg victory was marred by a third inning beaning of Frank Robinson. The Cincinnati outfielder was removed to a Portsmouth, Ohio, hospital after being hit in the head by a Camilo Pascual pitch. Hospital attendants said the injury apparently was not serious. After the game, the Redlegs announced that Vada Pinson, 19-year-old rookie had been promoted to the Cincinnati roster from the Seattle listMike McCormick, San Francisco’s 20-year-old southpaw, bested Herb Score of Cleveland. 6-3, with the help of a third inning error by Tribe first baseman Mickey Vernon which permitted three unearned runs. Vernon missed a foul pop off Danny O’Connell’s bat with the bases loaded and the Giant second baseman then connected for a two-run double. Two more runs came across on sacrifice flies. »• Harry Anderson, Rip Repulski and W'llie Jones each homered to lead the Phillies to a 12-8 decision over the Yankees at Winston Salem, N.C., before 10,059 fans, largest in North baseball history. X Williams Gets Walks The Red Sox drubbed their Memphis farm hands. 10-1, as Don Buddin and Frank Malzone hit homersV But the big news of the game* was Ted Williams’ first exhibition! appearance of the spring. Ted pinch hit twice at the insistence of the fans, and walked both times. Joe DeMaestri’s double with the bases loaded highlighted a fiverun rally in the seventh inning that gave Kansas City an 8-3 win over Little Rock of the Southern Association. -, u _, '. The Pittsburgh Pirates scored 13 runs in the ninth inning in crushing their Mexico City farm hands. 23-1, at Mexico City. Pitchers Moe Drabowsky and Bob Anderson of the Cubs were discharged from the Army at Fort Chaffee, Ark. The Orioles signed pitcher Jack Harshman to a formal contract and manager Paul Richards said he hoped he could be one of Baltimore’s starting pitchers Harshman had been testing an ailing back all spring.
