hang 'em up
By BOB McGINN
FEW moments in sports history can be recalled after a week
or two. After several years, forget it. It's all just not very
important. Only those events which detonate genuine emotion
stick with us.
That's the reason I recall so vividly November 22, 1965, the
night Floyd Patterson was humiliated by Muhammad Ali in one
of the cruelest mismatches of all time.
Patterson, at 21 the youngest man ever to win the heavy-
weight crown, was battered unmercifully by the champion.
Fighting with a painful muscle spasm in his back, Patterson
was a pathetic figure between rounds as his trainers virtually
carried him to his stool.
The eventual winner had been determined after the first
round or two. But Ali, angered by his foe's personal pre-fight
remarks, had a score to settle. After nearly 12 rounds, with
Patterson senseless and fighting by instinct alone, the debacle
was halted.
That was the scene almost seven years ago. Tonight the same
two men fight again. Someone should stop it.
Anybody with an ounce of boxing sense realizes that when
a man is seven years older, 20 pounds lighter, has a nine inch
shorter reach, and is infinitely slower than his opponent, he's
in for a beating. And deep down, Floyd Patterson, age 37,
weight 195, reach 71 inches, wnows it.
In 1965 he said, "I was a champion. I was a good champion,
and I know I am nearing the end."
Yet a month ago this very intelligent and thoughtful man
told an interviewer: "If I was positively sure I'd get this bout
next year, I'd wait. I'll be better at 38 or 39 than at 37. I feel
better now than I did five years ago. Since I've started my come-
back two years ago, I've improved every fight.
His self-delusion can be explained easily enough. Patter-
son once said, "Even if I lost something I wouldn't accept it.
A fighter never admits to age." But the larger question re-
mains. Why does he fight on?
For most fighters, money is the sole reason they box.
Although Patterson is guaranteed $100,000, his motives definitely
run deeper. Since the late Sonny Liston scored his first of two
first round knockouts over the ex-champ, Patterson has struggled
a decade to erase the lingering memory of that night in Chicago.
It showed in their second bout. Patterson admittedly had
been fearful of Liston. Deeply ashamed, he decided to slug
toe-to-toe with his immense foe-and was obliterated.
Friends see Patterson as a funny and gracious man. But
after defeat he becomes reticent and oblique, somehow making
himself believe that his close friends have instinctively turned
against him. Thus, the Patterson of the dark glasses and dis-
guises emerges. Patterson has always felt that he is indebted to
boxing. "Who is to say what I would actually be if it wasn't for
fighting," he quietly says. "A truck driver? A bum?"
A far better question would be to ask where the decrepit
sport of boxing would be if it had not had the decency and
professionalism of Patterson for the past 15 years.
Even the New York promo men are having a difficult time
selling Patterson's chances to the public. What can they say after
no betting line has been issued for the bout? The last time that
happened may have been for the Ali-Brian London farce a few
years ago.
Patterson has been played up as a comeback fighter who
has won nine straight. True, he did decision the brawling
Argentinian, Oscar Bonavena. But the other wins have come at
the expense of such nonentities as Pedro Agosto and Roger
Russell.
In their need to write something about the fight, the
Associated Press commissioned former "white" hope Jerry
Quarry, Ali's one-time punching bag, to preview the bout.
"I'll go with Ali, but Floyd should extend him and really
make him work," babbled Quarry.
Patterson really deserves much better than to have his career
degenerate to this. He has come from an emotionally disturbed
childhood to an Olympic gold medal to the heavyweight champion-
ship. The fourth stage, that of a washed-up old pug drowning in
dreams and memories, is upon him.
Patterson has faced both defeat and victory in his time.
Now it's time to face up to age.
Hopefully, tonight will be his last stand.

SAN DIEGO (!P) - Running back
Duane Thomas joined the San Di-

Thomas, asked whether he had

also said, "I'm always in shape."

running ability - and his silence

Football League training camp on

Bailey tripled in a run and then
scored on Ron Hunt's sacrifice
fly in the second. The Expos
scored another run in the third and
then Foli homered off Jenkins, 20-
12, in the fifth. Jenkins, who has
given up 32 homers in 36 games
this year, left for a pinch hitter
in the bottom of the fifth.

three previous occasions but did
not stay. Head Coach Harland
Svare suspended him Aug. 29 for
not reporting and he was fined
$150 daily. That would make the
total fine $3,150.
To get Thomas, the Chargers
gave up receiver Billy Parks and
running back Mike Montgomery.
Svare acknowledged at the time
that the deal was a gamble since
the trade was permanent even if
Thomas did not report.
There has been no public ex-
planation of why Thomas refused
to report to the Chargers. When a
reporter asked him about it yes-
terday, he said, "What do you
think?"
Thomas stayed after the morn-
ing practice and ran pass patterns
with quarterback John HadI and
several other players.
Svare was asked whether Thom-
as would play against the Denver
Broncos Sunday.
"I don't know," the coach re-
plied. "Tom Landry, Dallas' coach
told me he's capable of stepping
in any time.'
Thomas gained 1,596 yards on
326 carries in his two years with
the Cowboys. He also scored 16
touchdowns.
Thomas' decision to return to
the Chargers may have been influ-
enced by long talks he had here
with his probation officers and the
district judge that placed him on
probation last February for a
marijuana conviction.
District Judge Hollis Garmon
said yesterday he had told Thom-
as that if he completed one suc-
cessful year with the Chargers,
the court =would consider reducing
the sentence.

CLEVELAND'S BUDDY BELL slides safely into second ahead of the throw to Detroit's second sacker
Dick McAuliffe. The play occurred in last night's first game of the twinbill, won by the Tribe, 3-2.
The loss combined with another setback in the nite cap 6-4, dropped the Tigers into second place in the
torrid American League race.

the way your
parents read?
In the first grade, when you were taught
to read "Run Spot Run," you had to read.it
out loud. Word-by-word. Later, in the second
grade, you were asked to read silently. But
you couldn't do it.
You stopped reading out loud, but you
continued to say every word to yourself.
Chances are, you're doing it right now.
This means that you read only as fast
as you talk. About 250 to 300 words per
minute. (Guiness' Book of World Records
lists John F. Kennedy as delivering the fast-
est speech on record: 327 words per
minute.)
The Evelyn Wood Course teaches you
to read without mentally saying each word
}o yourself. Instead of reading one word at
a time, you'll learn to read groups of words.
To see how natural this is, look at the-

and it grows

With training, you'll learn to use your
innate ability to see groups of words.
As an Evelyn Wood graduate, you'll be
able to read between 1,000 and 3,000
words per minute . . . depending on the
difficulty of the material.
At 1,000 words per minute, you'll be
able to read a text book like Hofstadtler's
American Political Tradition and finish
each chapter in 11 minutes.
At 2,000 words per minute, you'll be
.able to read a magazine like Time or News-
week and finish each page in 31 seconds.
At 3,000 words per minute, yoU'll be
able to read the 447 page novel The God-
father in 1 hour and 4 minutes.
These are documented statistics based
on the results of the 450,000 people who
have enrolled in the Evelyn Wood course .
since its inception in 1959.
The course isn't complicated. There
are no machines. There are no notes to
take. And you don't have to memorize any-
thing.
95% of our graduates have improved
their reading ability by an average of 4.7
times. On rare occasions, a graduate's read-
ing ability isn't improved by at least 3 times.
In these instances, the tuition is completely
