Dick Donovan Hurls Fourth Straight Win By FRED DOWN UFI Sports Writer There ought to be a reward out today for Gabe Paul —a guy who got a 1.000 pitcher for a .179 hitter — and two “bonus” players besides. Paul pulled the Jesse James act last winter when he acquired Dick Donovan, Gene Green and Jim Mahoney for the Cleveland Indians by trading Jimmy Piersail to the Washington Senators. It was a deal that took couragecourage like the Dalton boys had. Cleveland fans hated to see Piersail go but they’re happy today because t hey obtained the hottest pitcher of the 1962 baseball season to date. Donovan, 10-10 with a leagueleading 2.40 earned run average for the Senators last season, reeled off his fourth straight triumph of ’62 Friday night with a six-hit, 7-2 win over the Minnesota Twins that kept the Indians | in the American League lead. He's allowed a total of five runs i in his four victories which include two shutouts. Piersail, meanwhile, i has five hits in 28 tries for a .179 season average. Loses Shutoat Woody Held and rookie Ty Cline each hit a two-run homer to pace a nine-hit Indian attack. Donovan had a shutout until the ninth when Harmon Killebrew and Zoilo Versalles hit homers. New York outscored Washington, 10-8, Detroit walloped Los Angeles, 13-4, Chicago topped Boston, 7-4, and Kansas Citydowned Baltimore, 14-5, in other American League games.

Liston Denied Fight License 1 In New York 1 NEW YORK (UPD-Sonny Lis--1 ton blithely* interpreted his latest ’ ban more as a boon today with ! the growing possibility that the Floyd Patterson fight now will be ’ shifted to ”my home ground” in ; Philadelphia. | , The Pennsylvania Athletic Commission was among the first to sanction Liston Friday following the New York commission’s refusal to license the hulking, 28-year-old challenger because of his criminal record and habit of associating with underworld figures. Liston also was promptly welcomed by official boxing groups in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. • But it was considered something of a foregone conclusion that the multi - million dollar heavyweight title fight will eventually be held in Liston’s hometown of Philadelphia. Sorry For Liston / The only possible hitch could be Patterson himself but the champion, who is expected to announce his decision today, tipped his mitt by saying: “He’s already served his time. I really feel sorry for him.” Amid the general conjecture as to whether or not the fight ever will be held, it was reported that the New York commission’s ruling against Liston was virtually dictated by Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, whois known to be greatly feller, who is known to be greatly his state. Rockefeller may be upset, but Liston wasn't when informed of his turn-down by the New York commission. Rockefeller may be upset, but Liston wasn’t when informed of : his turn-down by the New York • commission.
“It doesn't bother me at all,” said the outspoken heavyweight challenger, who has been arrested 19 times and jailed twice. “I will continue to train as if nothing happened. “A lot of friends sent telegrams to say how sorry they were, but it’s Patterson they should feel sorry for. because now I’ll probably get to fight him in Philadelphia, and that’s my home ground.” Called Poor Example Not everyone felt sorry for Liston, however. Don Brennan, executive secretary of the Virginia Athletic Commission. said the controversial challenger provides a poor example for America’s youngsters. “If he should become heavyweight champion.” Brennan declared, “professional boxing would be in a very bad state of affairs since the youth of America—of the entire world—look up to the world’s heavyweight champion.” When Liston and Patterson signed contracts on March 16, the site for the fight was left unsettled although it was pretty much understood it would be held either at Yankee Stadium, Sept. 17. or at the Polo Grounds, Sept. 26.

U. Os Colorado On Probation For Two Years NEW ORLEANS (UPD— The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Friday placed the University of Colorado on a twoyear probation, but patted the school on the back at the same time. The probation prohibits the Buffalo football team from participating in NCAA championships, bowl games or televised games. Walter Byers, executive director of the NCAA, said there was “no question that the penalty would have been a great deal more severe” except for the prompt and efficient way Colorado handled the case once it became aware of it. The NCAA placed most of the punishment blame on Everett (Sonny) Grandelius, w horn Colorado fired as head football coach last month after an investigation of an alumni “slush fund.” Grandelius took the Buffaloes to the Orange Bowl last season and ran up 21 victories against only 9 losses at the school. The NCAA charged he “c onceived and originated” the “slush fund” to provide financial aid to 21 football players from 1959 to 1961. His chief assistant, John Polonchek, was accused o f operating the fund. Grandelius, Polonchek and three other assistants allegedly involved in the fund are out at Colorado. Byers called the Colorado violations “one of the most serious cases to come before the NCAA council.” He ranked the probation with the severe punishments previously given the universities of Kentucky, Indiana, Auburn and North Carolina State. In other action the NCAA: —Censured, without penalty, the University of Missouri because an alumni member bought a plane ticket for a prospective athlete. —Declined to cut a three-year probation against New Mexico State. School officials Friday showed the NCAA that only 6 and not 7 boys had played football without being admitted in accordance with the university’s “printed” regulations. The New Mexico probation was handed down in January. The NCAA policy-directing committee ended its spring meeting here Friday.
