Cassius Clay Taking New York By Storm NEW YORK (UPI) - Unbeaten Cassius Clay, the ring’s most colorful heavyweight since the late Max Baer, is taking blase New York by storm. In unprecedented numbers, the fans are buying tickets for his fight with New Yorker Doug Jones at Madison Square Garden next Wednesday night. Matchmaker Teddy Brenner announces, “there’ll be a complete sellout of all 18,000 seats b-e-f-o-r-e the day of the fight, for the first time in the new Garden’s 38-year history.” Brenner explains that the last Garden pro boxing sellout, 13 years ago, and a couple sellouts before that, were achieved with the help of big fight-day sales. Twenty-one-year-old Cassius, the world's second-ranking heavyweight contender and new No. 1 sports pop-off guy, loves the impact he is making among New York’s 8-million but says: “It’s only natural because New Yorkers recognize me as the greatest and are coming to see me fight.” Clay, the "Louisville Lip” who names the round for a knockout and then fulfills the forecast, says third-ranking Jones “must go in six” if he doesn’t offend Clay before the fight. In case of any offense, however, the. seer of swat may pick an earlier round, “including the first.” Public confidence in Cassius as a prophet is reflected in the betting price of 16-5 favoring him. Clay seeks his 18th consecutive victory as a professional heavyweight and 15th knockout. Jones, 26, has scored 13 knockouts while winning 21 bouts, losing three and drawing one. He never was stopped.

Three Os 64 Champs Seek Ist Regional By KURT FREUDENTHAL United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Nearly one-third of the 64 sectional champions have never made it to the “Sweet Sixteen” of Indiana’s high school basketball tourney, but don’t look for many brandnew regional winners. Saturday’s second round of the month-long show will be considerably tougher than last week’s preliminaries. Only two brand - new regional champs were crowned last year —Knox and Eminence —and Knox will be cast in the role of defending champion in the Logansport tourney. Best bet for a regional newcomer appeared to be at Fort Wayne—something like 3 to 1— since Berne is the only former winner in that Northeastern tourney. Lost to Kokomo The Bears, in fact, have been in the “Sweet Sixteen” twice, the last time two years ago when they bowed to eventual state champ Kokomo, 75-63. Berne takes on Fort Wayne Concordia, one of four first-time sectional winners, in the regional tangles with Albion in the second match. Four other regionals contain two hopefuls each looking for first-time regional honors. Boonville and Fort Branch are the outsiders at Evansville, Danville and Alexandria at Indianapolis, little Wells and Fowler at Lafayette, and Royal Center and Rensselaer at Logansport. Others hoping for Lady Luck to help them to regional crowns include Greenwood at Columbus, North Dearborn at Connersville, Williamsport at Covington, Plymouth at Elkhart, Ireland at Huntingburg, South Whitley at Kokomo, Bryant at Marion, Parker at New Castle, and Freedom at Terre Haute. In most cases, the “have nots” face overwhelming odds. Greenwood, for instance, meets unbeaten and top-ranking host Columbus; Plymouth goes against oncebeaten Goshen at Elkhart, Fort Branch against state champ Evansville Bosse, Danville against bigger Indianapolis Ripple, Fowler against tourney - wise Lafayette, Bryant against tough Huntington at Maris#, and Freedom against Terre Haute Garfield? ” Somewhere along the line, of course, one or two clubs may take home regional honors for the first time. Besides at Fort Wayne, this could well happen at Logansport, either with Royal Center or Rensselaer. But any other first-time regional winners would be startling upsets.

San Francisco Moves Info Tie For Loop Lead By United Press International The University of San Francisco, which set the college basketball world on fire in the mid 1950’5, is seeking to light the torch once again. San Francisco still holds the all-time record for a college team of 60 wins in a row stretching from 1954 to 1956, including two straight NCAA championships. Leading the team in those banner years were Bill Russell and K. C. Jones, current stars with the professional champion Boston Celtics. The Dons never could reach the same peak again, but still may cause a stir if they reach the NCAA tourney next week. They moved into good position to do just this by turning back San Jose State, 51-46, on their home court Wednesday night. The triumph pushed the Dons back into a first place tie with Santa Clara in the West Coast Athletic Conference. The twb top teams meet in a showdown game Satorday night with an NCAA berth awaiting the winner, and San Francisco will have the all-impor-tant home court advantage. Villanova and Marquette, both of whom will play in the National Invitation Tournament, warmed up for the task with victories Wednesday night but Canisius, also headed for the New York tourney, was beaten by Dayton, 75-64. Villanova snapped Seton Hall’s 18-game home court winning streak, 71-64, as Wally Jones scored 38 points; Dick Nixon tallied 20 points to lead Marquette to a 74-68 triumph over Creighton; and Dayton coasted to victory over Canisius .after opening a comfortable nine-point halftime lead. Dave Lee scored 19 points for San Francisco and Ollie Johnson added 15 as the defense-minded Dons held San Jose to only 15 points in the first half. Dennis Bates of San Jose shared game honors with Lee by registering 19 points. $360,000 Grant Made To City Os Muncie WASHINGTON (UPI) —Muncie, Ind., has received a Community Facilities Administration grant of $360,000 under the accelerated public works program to reduce unemployment in labor surplus areas. The grant plus $370,000 put up by the town will finance sewer extension work done to begin June 15 and will provide 400 man-months of local work.

Early Wynn To Try Comeback At Camp Today By United Press International One of baseball’s most dramatic moments of 1963 could be written today when burly Early Wynn begins his comeback attempt. Wynn, a 43-y ear-old veteran who fell one short of his 300-game victory goal last season, was unconditionally released by the Chicago White Sox at the end of 1962. Knowing one more victory will make him virtually an automatic selection to the Hall of Fame, Wynn tried to land a job with other major league clubs. But nobody seemed to care for a guy who had chalked up “only” 299 wins. White Sox manager Al Lopez finally agreed to give Wynn a comeback shot if he made good at the Chicago camp. The righthander takes the test today when he starts in an intra-squad game, the last six-inning contest before the regular exhibition grind opens Saturday. Cincinnati provides the White Sox’ opposition. Reds’ manager Fred Hutchinson, has announced that Jim O’Toole, Jim Owens and Ken Hunt will toe the mouncj against Chicago.
