Title Contest Postponed Again
MONTREAL ({P) - The light-
heavyweight title fight between
Archie Moore and Canada's chal-
lenger Yvon Durelle was postponed
for a second time yesterday after
the champion left here abruptly to
be at the bedside of his wife in San
Diego, Calif.
Originally scheduled for July 15
and then set back two weeks when
Moore suffered a minor injury in
training, the bout now is set for
Aug. 12 at the Montreal Forum.
Mrs. Moore recently underwent
surgery for the removal of a non-
malignant mastoid tumor. Her
condition is reported to be satis-
factory. But Moore hurried home
after receiving a telephone call
from Dr. Kenneth Cales, who told
him. "Archie, you ought to be
here."
The champion caught a plane,
taking only his hat and coat. On
his arrival at San Diego he paused
only long enough to say "all my
fight plans are up in the air for
the present" before hurrying to
the hospital.
Earlier he had told sports editor
Jack Murphy of the San Diego
Union by telephone:
"It's not a tough decision for
me. I must- be at my wife's side.
They'll have to set the fight back.
There's no alternative but another
postponement."
Chris Shaban, Durelle's man-
ager, first threatened to claim the
title for the Bale Ste. Anne, N. B.
fisherman if Moore didn't go
through with the fight on sched-
ule.
"If he wants another delay, let
him fight as leading contender and
Durelle as champ," Shaban said.
Later Shaban agreed to the sec-
ond postponement.
Both Durelle and Shaban went
to great lengths to express their

sympathy for Moore after they
learned the extent and seriousness
of Mrs. Moore's operation.
"It could have been my wife,"
said Durelle. "I don't blame Archie
for going."
"We want Archie to know he has
our sympathy," said Shaban.
Earlier in the day when Shaban
was talking about claiming the
title, Gene Letourneau, chairman
of the Canadian Boxing Federa-
tion, was asked for comment.
"It is up to the National Boxing
Assn. in the United States to make
a decision in such a matter after
taking into consideration the views
of all parties concerned," he said.
"The Canadian Federation has no
jurisdiction over a world title fight,
only Canadian title bouts."
Durelle will fly to Baie Ste. Anne.
New Brunswick today. He will rest
for a few days before returning to
Montreal to resume training. -

Nodak Coach
Gets Pro Job
DENVER JP) - Robert H. May,
32, coach of North Dakota's Na-
tional Collegiate Hockey cham-
pions, signed a three-year con-
tract yesterday to coach the Den-
ver team in the International
Hockey League.
He met with Gene Clift, presi-
dent of Mile High Hockey Inc.,
which Saturday ;was granted a
franchise in the league.
"I'm really enthusiastic about
this opportunity," May said. He
will begin immediately to recruit
"an aggressive, young team," and
hopes to land some former play-
ers' from North Dakota,. Denver,
Colorado College and other west-'
ern schools.h
After coaching high school
hockey in North Dakota and Min-
nesota five years, May became the
North Dakota coach in 1957. His
team won the Western Intercol-
legiate League title in 1958 and
was runnerup to Denver in the
NCAA playoffs, then captured the
national title last March.
May, a native of Winnipeg,
Manitoba, is married and has two
children. He is now an American
citizen.
First it was back in 1951 that
Mrs. Beth Kaufman of San An-
selmo, Calif., got over her idea of
age-group swimming competition
so that youngsters throughout the
nation could compete against oth-
ers their own age.
Now such great young cham-
pions and record holders as Sylvia
Ruuska of Berkeley, Chris Von
Saltza of Saratoga, Calif., and
Becky Collins of Indianapolis re-
flect the value of the early train-
ing.
Beth, who has nine grandchil-
dren, heads the AAU's age-group
swimming program nationally.
She says she helped promote the
activity because "the little kids
weren't getting a good chance to
compete."
She got the Idea when her
daughter was 12 and had to com-
pete against seniors.
"Now the youngsters are get-
ting better training and a chance
to compete where they belong,"
she explains.
Competitions start with the 10
and under group and go up in
brackets of two years.
"So Johnny is a hot-shot at 10.
Then he reaches 11 and has to
compete with ~12-year-olds so he
has to work all the harder on his
swimming," Beth explains.
"This program gives us an ear-
ly chance to train boys and girls
who will represent this nation in
the Olympics. These kids learn to
take a beating and how to win
graciously."
