Thomas Again Breaks World High Jump Record
Hoosier All-Stars Join 'Revenge Victory' Club
LOUISVILLE — "Move ov%r, Ingo — Kentucky wont* o
scot."
These words by o Louisville rodio onnouncer following Saturday's All-Star game signalized the return of baskeball supremacy to its traditional location north of the Ohio.
In a year of revenge victories, Indiana did to Kentucky what Patterson did to Johansson and what Indiana University did to Ohio State in their second meeting last winter. Coach Angus Nicoson’s Hoosiers slaughtered ’em 101-64 — the greatest margin in the history
of the series.
USING TACTICS reminiscent of Indianapolis Tech last season, Nicoson’s reshuffled starters burst from the opening tipoff like angry bulls and rattled the Bluegrass boys to a 21-10 deficit in less than 7 minutes.
CARLOS KEEPS CLOUTIN': One ray of light in the Indianapolis Indians' generally gloomy season is the hitting of Carlos Bernier, center fielder from Juana Diaz, Puerto Rico. The 31-year-old former Pittsburgh flychaser was clouting .325 through Monday.
With 5:34 left in the half Kentucky nulled to 28-32 on Larry Holts jump shot from the circle, but Mel Garland, Mannie Newsome and Ron Bonham poured in 9 straight points to make sure there would be no repetition of the previous week’s upset. The second half was a runaway as Nicoson’s dandies raced toward 100. A 2-basket splurge by Phil Dawkins capped by Bob CantrellV lone fielder nut the score into three figures. BONHAM, LOOKING LIKE Oscar Robertson, placed the game of his career to score 27 points and

add the Indiana-Star-of-Stars Award to his collection. He could have made 40. But ibis was a team effort, even for Ronnie with his neputation
as a brilliant individualist. What made the Hoosiers go was the coach’s shifting of Newsome and Gqrland into the starting guard slots. It was hard to say which of them was the more outstandihir floor general. Between them, they played like Bill Scott and Bill Hampton of Attacks* great state champions. Basketwise, Newsome hit 9-for-15
for 18 points, while Garland centered 6-for-9 and added a free throw for 13. That kind of guard shooting
will take you far.
INDIANA’S FULL COURT press from the start unraveled the Kentucky nerves and once Garland faked the Bluefcrass Star-of-Stars, Jeff Mullins ^at of his shoes. Still the agile collected 17 for the
night
Bis fellow-LexingtOnian, Bill ^mothers who wrought so much damage to the Hoosiers at Butler Ficldhouse, was pretty effectively “smothered” at Freedom Hall. Three Hoosiers were assigned to guard the 6-7 star like Secret Service men. Part of the time this chore was handled by Bonham, big Jeff Blue and Newsome. They didn’t let Smothers draw a deep breath, and still he was second high for Kentucky with 14. BUSTER BRILEY WAS slingshotting for 10 points, John Dam pier put on his dribbling act and all in all it was a great night for the North. Incidentally, The Recorder’s Charley Preston said two weeks ago, “I’ll give you Kentucky and 40 points.’’ The ensuing score was 95-86 Kentucky and so he decided, “They have the better team.” Then Indiana beat them 37 points! Please, draw the curtain!

Jackson began his story with these wortis: “The U. S. won its first diplomatic victory since President Hwight D. Eisenhower left on his good-will tour of the Far Eas* “when Floyd Patterson defeated Ingemar Johansson Monday night with a 5th round knockout that restored the prestige of the Western World.”
ments for po’ieing the fight FUGAZY INDICATED his organization was all but sold on Chicago, but wanted assurance of full police protection. He was sure the fight would draw well in Chicago. He said: “There definitely is going to be another title fight between Patterson and Johansson under our promotion. Wc would like to stage the fight in Chicago and have indicated as much to A. Gr Atwater, executive vice-president of Wrigley Field. “All our organization is requesting is that we have sufficient police protection so we can avoid the gate-crashing and confusion we experienced In New York the other night. “Po’ice protection at the Polo Grounds was inadequate—so inadequate that some 500 persons crashed the gates before the fight. Also, ringside seats were taken over by thousands of spectators from the stands and scalpers

Clears 7-2 With Ease as Olympic Tryouts Approach BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (ANP) — Topping the 7-foot mark for the 28th time, John Thomas, 19-year-old Boston University sensation, set a new world outdoor high jump freord last week when he soared over 7 feet, 2 inches. Thomas’s feat highlighted the National AAU’s track and field championships. The lanky leaner made the record-breaker on the second try. He had cleared the bar on his first attempt, but it shook and fell moments later. He waited about a minute and then made it with space to spare. It was the second time that Thomas had topped the outdoor world record of 7-1 set in 1957 by Russia’s Yuri Stepanov. John first beat that mark with a 7-1 3/4 leap last March at Cambridge, Mass. THOMAS HAS LEAPED as high a s 7 feet, 2Vfe inches. He did it last March 12 at the Chicago Daily News Relays. However, indoor records are not recognized as world standards. Meanwhile, mere are rumors that Thomas has jumped as high as 7-3 unofficially, and there is a feeling he’ll soon reach that mark outdoors. Barring a mishap, he is rated an almost sure gold medal winner for Uncle Sam in the Olympics this summer in Rome. Thomas’ athletic career was threatened last year when he mangled his “jumping foot” in an elevator accident on the Boston campus. He made an amazing comeback. BY VIRTUE OF his AAU showing Thomas qualified for the Olympic tryouts to be held at Stanford University. Others qualifying for the Stanford action included Greg Bell of Indianapolis, 1956 Olympic broad jump champion; Lee Calhoun of Gary, Ind., and Willie May, former Indiana University star, both in the 110-meter hurdles; Dave Mills of Purdue, 400 meters; Reggie Sheppard of I.U., high jump <6-7), and Max Truex of Warsaw, 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters.

"I Don't Want the
NEW YORK (ANP) — The old age spread seems to be catching up with Archie Moore. The light-heavyweight champion of the world, usually slightly over the 175-pound limit, admitted last week he was having trouble making the weight and asked for a fourweek postponment of his scheduled July 18 title bout against Erich Schoeppner of Germany, the European champion. There were reports a three-week delay would be granted, putting the bout Aug. 8 at Toronto The request came through
Moore’s manager. Jack “Doc” Kearns, who said Archie needed more time to take off some 20 pounds. When he fought Billy Besmanoff at IndanapolLs on May 25, Moore weighed 206V!z. THE VETERAN BOXER claims to have obtained secrets on weight reduction from an aborigine in Australia. However, the secret reportedly consists merely of a diet of orange juice in the morning and a light dinner every day.
