lone Empty Threat; Title T Bout Slated For Tonight

ly JACK BAND

NEW YORK (AP)-Rocky Mar dano and Archie Moore. sidelined 34 hours by the empty threat of Hurricane lone weighed in heavier than expected Tuesday for to- night's heavyweight title bout at Yankee stadium.

The fickle dame lone scared Jim Norris. president of the Inter- national Boxing Club. into an- nouncing a one-day postponement in mid-morning. But it would have, been possible to have held the fight as lone sliced out to sea. Both the Giants and Dodgers played ball games as scheduled.

Hundreds of cells from out-of- town ticket buyers who wanted to he sure before they left home prompted Norris to order the post- ponement because of the "uncer- tainty" nf the weather. FORECAST GOOD TODAY

The weather man predicted to- day would be fair with the ther- mometer hitting the 15 - degree

Park.

Because the fight falls on Wed- nesday night it will be pushed back 15 minutes to 11:45 p. m. ADT to avoid conflict with the usual Wednesday television show. a middleweight bout at Miami between Bobby Dykea and George Johnson.

There will be no change in ar- rangements for the big bout. ex- cept the new starting time.

IBC officials reported the ad- vance sale was "between 3650.000 and 3700.000" with few refunds asked. Promised a perfect day for the fight. they hoped to sell an additional 3150.000 worth of tickets at the gate. It appeared that the original estimate of 50,000 people land 5750.000 might be topped. ;dcspite the postponement. ROCKY STILL FAVORITE 5 Marciano. unbeaten in his 48- gbout career, remained a 17-105 llavorite to blunt lhtgllld of the 38- .year-old light heavy king. after the iweigh-in and postponement.

Marciano weighed lhtllh, and

Moore came in at ills pounds.

Dr. Vincent Nardiello of the New l York state athletic commission. who examined both men. said Marciano was "the "same old usual cool cucumber." He ” T i' the 24-hour delay would affect either man. Marciano said he was all geared to fight but merely shrugged off the delay.

In answer to an afternoon paper report that this would be his last fight, Marciano'sald. "I'm only thinking about this fight right now." His manager. Al Weill. said there nas "positively nothing to

if the weatherman proved to be wrong again today and the fair weather did not materialize. the light would be set back to Thurs- day. After that? The IBC chiefs simply throw up their hands-

WASHINGTON. (AP) - New York Yan' . running their winning streak to seven. stormed two steps closer to the American League championship Tuesday night with a sweep of a day-night doubleheader over Washington Senators 6-3 and 9-7.

The first game of the day-night affair was a breeze for the Yan- kees. out the second was a real thriller as the Senators rallied for six runs in the last two ion- ings. Casey Stengel sent in our relief pitchers in stemmini the suddenly reversed tide.

Washington's rookie right fielder Carlos Paula. was the Yankees' best weapon in the night game. He played a routine line drive into a double in a three-run third and kicked a bases-loaded single into a three- run wallop and misjudged a hard liner that went for a triple in the six-run seventh.

kae wins or Cleveland defeats now would clinch the flag for the Yankees. who have five games to play to four for the Indiana.

New York engages the Senators in Washington tonight before winding up the .regular season with a four-game set in Boston. Cleveland plays another game with Chicago here tonight and then journeys to Detroit for its last three games.

Tuesday nightis victory assured the Indians of at least a tie for

second place in the American League. -

Bobby Avlla'a three-bagger with two out and two plates aboard in the eighth inning broke up a 1-1 pitching duel between Early Wynn and Billy Pierce and ended a four-game losing streak for the Tribe.
