ATLANTA (P - Former world heavyweight champion Cassius Clay will return to the ring in earnest Oct. 26, meeting either No. 1 contender Jerry Quarry of Bell- flower, Calif., or second-ranking challenger Oscar Bonavena of Ar- gentina in Atlanta, promoters say. State Sen. Leroy Johnson of At- lanta, head of House of Sports, Inc., and the-man instrumental in arranging Clay's first bouts in more than three years, said Fri- day that negotiations for t h e fight "are about 90 per cent com- pleted and we hope to sign a contract no later 'than Thursday of next week. "It will either be Quarry or Bonavena," Johnson said. "My personal choice is Quarry." Johnson and the Atlanta sports group had been attempting to ar- range a title fight between Clay, or Muhammhad Ali as he prefers to be called, and world champion Joe Frazier on Oct. 26. However, Johnson said the Clay-Frazier clash had been delayed because of prior commitments by Frazier's manager, Yank, Durham. "Durham had gone ahead and signed a contract to ifight B o b Foster," Johnson said. He added, however, that the At- lanta sports group does have a firm commitment from Durham for Frazier to meet Clay after the Foster fight. "It, will be a title bout,' - and it .will be in Atlaeta," Johnson said. "We have assurance on that." The Frazier. camp has denied that such a fight is in the making. U U Ir.
