6 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, February 7, 1967 SPORTS BEAT By Eric Wesslby Times Sports Editor CASSIUS CLAY, or Muham- mid Ali as he prefers to be known, cuffed Ernie Terrell around for 15 rounds at Hous- ton last night to prove again that he's the best heavyweight around. You may not like him personally, but you've got to admire the champion's ring record, which is the main rea- son he's in the spotlight. Clay boasts he can take three men on in one night. From the looks of things that's what they might have to try. Or put two in the ring at once against him, one to tie him up and the other to punch. ERNIE TERRELL lasted 15 rounds but I think had Clay tried to put him away around the seventh or eighth he might have done so. Instead, he was content to toy with the big fel- low, giving him 'the Patterson treatment', and by the time he was. ready to unload the big one, Terrell had recovered suf- ficiently to stay out of trouble. Terrell had several flurries, but nothing sustained, We've seen hockey players throw more punches to the head in three minutes than Terrell landed all night on Clay's head. The champ was content to let Terrell hammer away at his side in the clinches, but from the close-ups it was evi- dent those punches weren't having any effect. DO REFEREES in the On- tario Hockey Association carry. around a pair of counters to keep track of minor penalties issued each team? While I'm sure they don't, you'd have a rough time convincing the ma- jority of players and teams in the league that this isn't the case. Few junior "A" games finish with one team getting more than two minor penalties more than the opposition. The officials must have some kind of system. Perhaps one lines- man keeps track of the penal- ties issued to one team while the other keeps count on the opposite team. WHILE IT isn't strange for the officials to be so close in their count, it's amazing how often things even up during a game. For instance, several weeks ago, in a game at Civic Auditorium, Oshawa Generals had a 9-6 lead in penalties, with less than 10 minutes re- maining, but the teams wound up even at 10-10. And it's hap- pened on more than one occa- sion. REFEREEING HERE Satur- day night left quite a bit to be desired, and not because the Generals were beaten. Referee Bob Nadin was inconsistent with his calls throughout and the 10-minute misconduct on Fred O'Donnell was something of a mystery, although the Oshawa player could have been talking out of turn. The two Hamilton penalties late in the second period appeared to be a case of evening things up after three straight calls against Generals. SEVERAL OF the Generals didn't exactly endear them- selves to coach Ted O'Connor in Saturday's outing. Their ef- forts, lumped __ together, wouldn't have done credit to a midget player, let alone a jun- ior getting ready to step into pro ranks. If they're just going to go along for the ride for the remainder of the season, bet- ter Ted should sit them out and try someone else. At least when Peter Nevin decided he couldn't get interested, he said so and packed it in. JOHN "PEANUTS 0'Fla- herty is in the city tonight, along with his St. Catharines Black Hawks. It's strange that the two most colorful coaches in the team over-shadow the talents of their own teams. Hamilton's Eddie Bush and O'Flaherty would certainly be the centre of attention in al- most any gathering, and in comparison, their own teams suffer, Both Wings and Hawks have several outstanding play- ers but after talking to O'Flaherty and Bush you have a tendency to overlook the players. A COUPLE of pint-sized in- dividuals, Vic Teal and Pete Mara, have put new life into the Hawks recently, which should please O'Flaherty, who can talk to this pair on a eye- to-eye level. Most of the time, however, Peanuts has a tough time communicating with his players. He has to resort to shouting instructions. Hawks are challenging for a first divi- sion berth once again, after a mild slump which dropped them to within reach of the Generals a few weeks ago. And would you believe Gen- erals have gained only one point since St. Catharines' last visit here CLAY SAID IT... ...AND HE DID IT Champion Carries Terrell Into Oblivion HOUSTON (AP)--Cassius Clay is the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world after humiliating Ernie Terrell in a one-sided 15-round fight that went as Clay, predicted. Clay, now winner in eight title defences and six in 11 months, had predicted he would hand the 27-year-old 6-foot-6 Terrell "a Floyd Patterson humiliation beating." He did just that Monday night in the Astrodome, half-closing Terrell's left eye, cutting him over the right eye, and pound ing him almost at will. He did everything but knock down the lumbering giant, who stumbled about half-blinded from the mid- dle rounds on. Terrell's vaunted left jab, his main attacking weapon, was completely nullified by the daz- zling foot work and head move- ments of the superbly condi- tioned Clay. The three officials had Clay ahead by lop-sided scores. Using the 10 - point must system, . . + left, Ernie Terrell leaps away from Cassius THIS WAS HOW HEAVYW: Clay; centre, Clay starts de- lands referee Harry Kessler scored the fight 148 - 137 (12-2-1 in rounds), judge Jimmie Webb had it 148-133 (13-2 in rounds), and judge Ernie Taylor 148-137 (13-2 in rounds). The Associated Press card had it 148-137 and 14-1 in rounds, giving Terrell only the second. CLAY'S DISAPPOINTED "He was disappointing be- cause he just kept holding and clinching all the time, but he had to have great courage to stay in the ring and take a whipping for 15 rounds," said Clay. "He fought a dirty fight," Terrell contended, '"'He rubbed my right eye against the ropes and thumbed my left eye so that from the third round on I couldn't see Clay to hit him. "I kept seeing two or three people."' Terrell was bruised under the left eye in the fourth round, and it puffed his eye to a slit by the end of the tortuous whipping. obit RANE sos Sa livery; right, Clay Big Ernie was cut over the right eye in the seventh round and he lurched about the ring from then on, trying to close in on his elusive, taunting foe, who popped him with both hands and moved like a ballet dancer. In the eighth, the 6-foot-3 Clay knew he had his towering foe figured out and ready for the cleaners, TAUNTS TERRELL In the eighth and ninth rounds, he kept taunting Terrell by asking '"What's my name?" Terrell called Clay by his given name and refused to yield to him when Clay the generally regarded champion asked him to call him by his Black Muslim name of Muhammad Ali. For this, Clay called Terrell an "'un- cle Tom," a term Negroes use in referring to a member of their race they consider acting servile to whites. "The name still is Cassius Clay," said Terrell after his fierce beating. EIGHT TITLE WAS FINALLY DECIDED hard right. (AP Wirephotos) - Clay severely battered Pat- terson, the, former two - time champion, in stopping him in 12 rounds at Las Vegas, Nev., Nov. 22, 1965. He later admitted he had caarried Patterson so he could humiliate him. Terrell, holding his hands high, found his defences crum- bled by the pin-point punching of the boxing master. Clay fired away with his two guns and must have hit the plodding giant at least 2,000 times in. the monotonous 15 rounds, WAS WBA CHAMP Although Clay was regarded as champion by most everyone, Terrell was recognized as cham- pion by the World Boxing Asso- ciation after the WBA stripped Clay of recognition for signing a return-bout contract with Sonny Liston. Terrell beat Eddie Ma- chen in Chicago, March 5, 1965, to gain the WBA title. "Now, who's the champ?" A record indoor crowd of 37,- 321 paid a gross of $400,145. The crowd surpassed the one of 35,- 460 which paid $461,290 for Clay's third round knockout of Cleveland Williams in the Astro- dome last Nov. 14. With the receipts from closed circuit television, and live hook- ups to England and Japan by the communications satellites, radio and delayed television, Clay figures to earn about $600,- 000 and Terrell about $210,000. Clay weighed 212% and Ter- rell, 21214, the heaviest of Er- nie's career. RECORD 28-0 Clay's record is 28-0, including 22 knockouts. Only Chuvalo, beaten in 15 rounds last March 29, and Terr Il have been able to go the distance with Clay in the last four years. After losing his first fight in nearly five years and having his winning streak snapped at 15, Unless the Army gets him first, the 25-year-old Clay only has mediocre competition ahead of him, the likes of Zora Folley, the scientific if meek No, 2 contender from Chandler, Ariz.; Canadian George Chuvalo in a repeat; young Thad Spencer; and possibly Floyd Patterson once more. "Tt will be either Zora Folley or George Chuvalo next," said Clay-Muhammad Ali, unmarked as usual, "'but I'm sure it's Fol- ley. I think Folley can put up a better fight than Terrell. He's a better boxer." "T can beat Clay," said the 34-year-old Folley. "I saw plenty of openings." A Clay-Folley match might be made for New York's Madison Square Garden or Detroit's Olympia, in late March. Meanwhile Clay is appealing his 1-A draft status, claiming he is a minister of the Black Mus- yelled the jubilant Clay. Cable TV And A & W Win | UAW Lague Doubleheader'.

VERSAFOOD LACKS DRIVE the majority of their game, as the Versafood club showed little drive and a lack of desire, a condition which didn't improve when Redshaw drew a game misconduct penalty, in the sec- ond stanza.
