Ray Robinson To Seek Early KO Os Pender BOSTON <UPD —Colorful Sugar Ray Robin non Hill a gloryhunter in the *uMrt of hi* career, •aya he'll try for a quick. «pcctacular knockout tonight over challenger Paul Pender the first defenaa of his disputed middleweight championship in 12 months “I gotta do it quick and impressively." said Myear-old Ray. "to prove that I'm still the real world champton " The Harlem hotshot is favored at 5-1 to beat Myear-old Pender of suburban Brookline, in their scheduled 15-round fight at the Boston Garden. fUanina May Be (.one Few five the rangy, darkhaired Irish challenger any chance against the once - great Robinson, who still carries a bomb in each fist but whose legs and stamina may be gone because of age and inactivity. Nevertheless, the ticket sale caused promoter Sam Silverman to expect 12.000 fans and a gate of 5125.000 In addition. Silverman said, the TV-radio money is 1100.000. The bout in which Pender will be attempting tne 15-round distance for the first time, will be televised and broadcast nationally by NBC at 10 p.m. e.s.t. There’ll be a TV blackout within a 100 mile radius. First Defense Since 'SB Sugar Ray expects a purse of about S 120.000; Pender. about 235,000. Paul's previously highest purse was 26.000. It's Robinson’s first defense since he recaptured the 160-pound title from Carmen Basilio at Chicago on March 25. 1858. Because of Ray's long delay in defending, the National Boxing Assn, vacated his crown May 4. However, he's still recognized as world champion in New York and Massachusetts. Gene Fullmer of West Jordan. Utah, is now recognized as champion by the NBA; and Robinson hopes that an impressive victory over Pender tonight will force a title-clearing fight with Fullmer at New York, May 16.

One Traffic Death In Indiana This Week United Press International Something unusual has happened in Indiana and it's almost wrong to mention it for fear the spell will be broken. Only one traffic death has been reported since Sunday. When Mrs.- Geneva G. Francisco, 44, Elkhart, was killed at midnight Tuesday by a train which smashed into her car at an Elkhart crossing, it was the first fatality reported since the weekend counting period ended last Sunday midnight. Furthermore, by midmorning today, no additional deaths were reported since Mrs. . Francisco was killed. It couldn’t have happened at a better time. During the first two weeks of the new year, traffic slaughter seemed bent on setting some sort of records, and fatalities were l running well ahead of last year.
Mrs. Francisco was the state’s 49th victim of 1960, the only fatality reported in more than 100 hours during which millions of Hoosiers have driven hundreds of thousands of miles over roads and streets, some of'which were slippery from ice and snow. The lbw death record this week reminded safety officials of the Monday-through - Saturday period from April 7 to 12 in 1958. During that six-day period, there were four deathless days and the death toll during the two remaining days totaled four.

| Today's Sport Parade | (Reg. U. 8. Pet.” Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY United Pres* International NEW YORK (UPD — A couple of old golfing gaffers are preparing today for what well could be their last chance bid to win the one that got away. That would be Sam Snead and Ben Hogan. And for them the big one is the U.S. Open. Sam never has won it and Ben wants it a record-breaking fifth time to break a tie with Bobby Jones and ancient Willie Andcr- —— I- - Actually there is little to choose between them as they begin to sharpen up for what could be a last serious effort when you consider that both of them will hit the 48 mark this year. Because tn two mutual tournaments last year they finished in a flat-footed tie. Time Running Out In the Open, they tied for eighth with 2875. In the Dallas Open three months later they tied for 14th with 280’s. Time is fast running out on them, what with a horde of youngsters invading the pro golf ranks. Yet you still can't count out either man. Because last year Hogan racked up his 65th tournament victory by taking the Colon-ial-Open and Snead chalked up tournament triumph number 103 with a record-tying 259 in the Sam Snead Festival. Slammin’ Sam, who shot a phenomenal 59 in the third round, tied the tournament’s 10-year-old record. Held, naturally, by Hogan. Snead has, by far. been playing the most golf of the two. He has been an annual fixture as one of Uncle Sam’s two-man Canada
