Lufkin Holds
No. 1 Raling
DALLAS (—Vernon and Tex-
arkana were newcomers this week
to the elite circle of Class AAA
schoolboy football teams named in
the Dallas Morning News as the
state’s 10 best.
Vernon took ninth place and
Texarkana 10th, displacing Level-
- land and Kilgore.
Otherwise, the votes of Texas
sportswriters polled by the News
kept the list the same, with Lufkin
easily the top team.
The Panthers, rated the best of
three unbeaten and untied AAA
powers—the other two are Garland
and Pharr-San Juan-Alamo—in-
creased their margin over second-
place Breckenridge and third-place
Port Neches.

theses)

2. Breckenridge (5-0-1)
3. Port Neches (6-1)

4. Big Spring <6-0-1)
5. Garland (6-0)
6. McAllen (6-0-1)
7. Palestine (5-1-1)
8. Pharr-San Juan-Alamo <6-0)
9. Vernon (4-2′1)
10. Texarkana (4-2)
Next in the rankings are Kilgore
(4-2); Nacogdoches (5-1); Austin
McCallum <6-1); Sweetwater (2-3-
D; Alice (6-1-1); Sherman (4-2);
Levelland (4-1-2); San Antonio Ala-
mo Heights (6-1-1); Snyder (4-2);
Dallas Pleasant Grove (4-3).
A 1-AAA battle between Breck-
enridge and Big Spring heads the
list of games this week likely to
change the order of ratings.

Three More Winners
ALBANY,Y Calif. —Willie Shoe-
maker, piling up further laurels as
the year’s most winning jockey,
captured three straight races at
Golden Gate Fields Wednesday.
Silent Shoe boosted his victory
total for the year to 358 with Mr.
Blue Bluebird $4.80 in the third,
Flyfosta $4.00 in the fourth and
Abacus $5.10 in the fifth.

out Harold Johnson who had been
was stopped in the late rounds of
his title bid. Johnson was dropped
to fifth place, just ahead of Floyd
Patterson, the fast-rising Olympic
grad from Brooklyn.
The heavyweight rankings were
revised due to the long idleness of
Jimmy Slade, Roland LaStarza
and Hurricane Tommy Jackson.
Heinz Neuhaus of Germany, who
recently defended his European
championship, took over Slade’s
No. 4 spot. Slade, however, has a
chance to move up again Friday
night when he boxes sixth-ranked
Bob Baker at Philadelphia. La-
Starza was dropped to seventh and
Jackson to ninth because they have
been idle so long.
The ranking contender behind
heavyweight champ Rocky Marci-
ano still is Cuban Nino Valdes fol-
lowed by Britain’s Don Cockell and
Ezzard Charles of Cincinnati.
When Johnny Saxton took over
the welterweight crown by winning
a disputed decision over Kid Gavi-
larr “at Philadelphia, the ratings
were revised to make Gavilan the
No. 1 challenger because of the
controversy over the verdict. Car-1
men Basilio, the rugged Cana-
stota, N. Y. left hooker, was
dropped to the No. 2 spot although
he probably will get first show at
the new champ
In the light-weight division where
champion Paddy DeMarco is de-
fending against Jimmy Carter, the
former titleholder, at San Fran'
cisco, Nov. 17, the Cuban Orlando
Zulueta dropped from second to
fourth after his defeat by Richie
Howard at Halifax Friday. How-
ard, incidentally, now is rated No.
8. Duilio Loi, the Italian who holds
the European title, took over Flan-
agan’s old No. 2 ranking.
Teddy (Red Top) Davis spurted
from fourth to second in the feath-
erweight division behind champion
Sandy Saddler and Philadelphia’s
Percy Bassett.

World middleweight champion
Carl (Bobo) Olson made this com-
meat after he had scored an 8
-round technical knockout over
Garth Panter of Salt Lake City to
their scheduled 10-round, national-
ly televised contest at the Rich
mond Auditorium Wednesday
night. The title, at course, was not
at stake.
Olson didn’t look exactly slug,
gish in the fearful beating he gave
Panter. He pounded the game Salt
Laker with a two-handed attack
from the start.
Panter's Face Cut
Referee Joe Louis, the former
heavyweight champion, halted the
uneven bottle 41 seconds after the
eighth round started when Panter
was cut deeply on the side of his
right eye Five stitches were need-
ed to close it. Panter also was cut
on his left cheek bone to the fifth
round It took two stitches to close
this cut.
"Panter is tougir and strong,"
Olson said. “I was trying to go 20
rounds for a good workout. I was
punching real sharp. Nene of Pan-
ter's punches hurt me."
The champion will defend his
title against Joey Giardello, the
No. 1 contender from Philadelphia,
in a 15-rounder to San Francisco
on December 15.

the later rounds He fought back
gamely and threw punches at O-
son whenever he could get close.
He landed a few good rights,
mainly to the jaw, early to the
bout. ,
Gate receipts were $9,562.
The contest was judged under
the California scoring system of
11 points to the round Fer the
first seven rounds Referee Louis
had Oboe to front 55-32. Judge
Wants Another Warm-Up
Olson would like another warm
