More Than Music One-hundred and thirty-four years ago this month, a small, ugly man died in Vienna, Austria. His name was Ludwig Van Beethoven. He left the world —a world which at that time enjoyed mocking him —a legacy of beautiful music. He also left a legacy of liberty. Almost everyone knows of Beethoven as a great musician. In his own time, he was a legend; not as a composer, but as a pianist. The great Ignace Paderewski, when visiting the boyhood home of Beethovan in Bonn, Germany, was invited to sit and play the master's own pinaoforte. Paderewski declined with the statement that he was not good enough to play Beethoven’s piano. This incident shows that he is still a legend among musicians. But Beethoven left the world more than music. He grew op in an age of change. He matured in an age of the development of the freedoms of man, And, while people who do not bother to study his life might not realize it, he lived a life that exemplified the great American and French revolutions. To begin with, he should never have been a musician, and particularly a pianist. He lived a childhood of poverty. It was not the extreme poverty that stifles every feeling but hunger, but it was a poverty that surely would not nurture the great feelings of an artist. Physically, he was not made for a great pianist. He was small of stature, and his hands were small and square, with stubby fingers. But Beethoven, in the fashion of all truly great men, became something that was not expected of him — he became a great pianist. From there, he needed new outlets for the growing realizations of the wants and needs of men, so he turned to composing. Typical of his whole life was a writing to one of his friends in which he stated: “I will seize fate by the throat. It shall not crush me. Oh, it is so glorious to live one's life a thousand times.” This he did, in the many beautiful compositions he left behind. There was a terrible thunderstorm in Vienna on the night of March 26, 1827. The great pianist-composer lay on his death-bed, already in his final coma. During a brilliant flash of lightning, the small man who had overcome all odds sat upright in the bed, shook his fist at the window, and fell back during the crash of thunder, dead. The man was gone, but his contribution to mankind is still here for us to enjoy. Like all other lasting things though, Beethoven’s greatest contribution, above the magnificent music and beyond his life of triumph, was a simple and direct little note. At the end of one of his original symphony scores he had written: “Freedom above all”. Editorial Writer Today John G. Heller

TellCifyk Dark Horse In Tourney Finals By KURT FREUDENTHAL Uatted Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Three favorites — Kokomo. Indianapolis Manual and Logansport — and dark-horse contender Tell City were set today for the final assault which will crown one of them Indiana’s 1961 high school basketball champion. The new champ, not necessarily a brand new one, will be determined in the three-game grand finale at Butler Fieldhouse here Saturday. It will be third-ranked Manual, sporting a 20 game winning streak, against Tell City and toprated Kokomo against Logansport, No. 12, in the afternoon session. The winners will clash at night for the title vacated by East Chicago Washington in the regionals. With a possible exception of Tell City, it is a big-city finals. The “fieldhouse four” grabbed semi-state honors last Saturday, the first ever for Tell City from the southern district and for Manual from the central district. Manaal Wins Thriller Manual, however, was also in the final four 46 years ago when the championship was decided at Indiana University. Kokomo, now 26-1, reached the playoff round at Fort Wayne by outclassing Huntington, 85-55, and beating little Berne, 75-63. Manual, 27-2, outlasted fourtime state champs Muncie Central, last year’s runnerup, 62-59, in a thriller after disposing of stubborn Connersville, 61-49. Manual owns a 20 game string engineered primarily by its devastating twins, Tom and Dick VanArsdale. Logansport, state champ in 1934 and 24-3, crashed through at Lafayette with an 84-65 triumph over Lebanon after overwhelming previously once-beaten New Ross, 84-65. Tell City finally captured state laurels at Evansville with a hardfought 64-60 victory over Jasper and checks-in with a 20-7 record. Some other good teams were eliminated in the afternoon rounds Saturday. Lebanon, the state’s first three time champion, turned in the biggest upset by edging Gary Roosevelt, 62-61, on Dave Milam’s fielder with eight seconds left. Milam left a sick bed—he had been down with the mumps—and hit only three fielders. Roosevelt, No. 11 in the state, was co-favored with Logansport for semi-state honors and blew a 50-42 lead in the final period. Tell City ousted Bloomfield, 62-53, and was in charge most of the way. Against Jasper, sophomore Jim Meek hit all his 10 points in a sizzling final period to propel Gunner Wyman’s boys into the “state.” Logansport's Farrell Tops Muncie, still looking for that elusive record fifth state title, led Columbus all the way in the preliminaries for a 77-66 win, but fell behind against Manual three times by 12 points. Manual led by nine going into the last stanza before the Bearcats tied the game up in the final few minutes, 54-54, on the shooting of Bill Dinwiddle, Rich Williams and Gerry Lanich. But the VanArsdales and Jim Cummings pulled the southsiders out of reach in the final seconds. Top individual laurels in the 12 game session went to Logansport’s Danny Farrell, who punctured the nets for 64 points against New Ross and Lebanon. That gives the North Central Conference scoring champion a 20 point margin over his nearest rival, Dick VanArsdale, who hit 44 points. Jasper’s Bobby Merder canned 41, Rod Schwartz of Berne had 40. Kokomo placed three among the first 10 scoring leaders, an indication of the balance the Wildcats boats in their all-out bid for their first state title. It will be the third meeting between Kokomo and Logansport this season. Kokomo won the first two engagements rather handiily, but past perforamances may be meaningless with the crown at stake.

Patterson Is 18-5 Favorite Over Johansson MIAMI BEACH (UPI) — Champion Floyd Patterson and Swedish Ingemar Johansson were officially notified today that the gate had passed the all - important $400,000 mark for their third and decisive heavyweight title fight tonight at the Miami Beach Convention Hall. Both boxers expressed relief that sportsman Bill MacDonald of Miami Beach would lose no money on his $400,000 guarantee for the scheduled 15-round fight, and officials of Feature Sports, Inc., sent a telegram to MacDonald releasing him from the guarantee. A crowd of 13,000 is expected when 26 - year -old Patterson of Rockville Centre, N.Y., and 28-year-old Johansson of Sweden and Switzerland square off with the six-ounce gloves at 10:30 p.m„ EST. Left-booker Patterson, first man to recapture the heavy crown, is favored at 18-5 to beat Ingo, the explosive righthanded puncher — as he did in their second fight last June 20. Floyd’s left hooks floored big, brown-haired In g o twice in the fifth round for a knockout that night. Swede Confident Johansson, who knocked out Patterson in the third round of their first fight in 1959, told friends today he hoped his unprecedentedly stiff training this time had geared him to stiffen Floyd again and make himself the second man to win back the title. Although tonight’s international “rubber match” is scheduled for . 15 rounds, the betting is at "even money” that it doesn’t last more than six rounds, regardless of the winner. And it’s 8-1 that it doesn t go the full 15 sessions. However, should it unexpectedly last its scheduled distance, the betting is 25-1 that Johansson doesn’t win the decision. Then tonight’s match was first made for the 15,922-seat arena, officials of Feature Sports aimed at a sellout of $1,000,000 — with tickets priced at SIOO, SSO and S2O. But now it appears unlikely that the gate will reach $500,000. However, the bout still may be the richest fight in history because of the booming sales at theater-TV locations in the United States and Canada, as well as the large guarantees paid for radio, movies and foreign kinescopes.

rights to theater-TV, radio, mow les, etc. — announced that the total receipts from those “aneillaf' ies” promise an unprecedented gross of $4 million. Johansson, who floored Floyd seven times in the third round tor a. technical knockout in their first fight, will be free to defend against any challenger he choses if be takes the title from Patterson tonight. There’s no returnbout contract. Thanks to the possible $4 million in gross ancillary receipts, plus the “live” gate, the purses of Floyd and Ingo may approach the million-dollar mark this time. Each gets 25 per cent of the net live gate, and Feature Sports receives 5 per cent. However, Patterson’s cut of the promotion’s ancillary receipts is ’SO per cent; Johansson’S, 35. Feature Sports gets 15. In addition, Johansson has the entire Scandinavian rights to radio and film.
