Watauga Democrat Comment Un Sports By PETE FRITCHJE Washington, D. C. ? Fleyd Pat terson has proved hiaaelf ? great heavyweight champion Hit elec tric fifth-round K. O. ?f heavy weight champion Iageraar Johans son was just aa dramatic as Inge mar's knockout a year ago. In becoming the first heavy weight champion ever to come back, Patterson has set the stage for a third fight, which could draw a million dollar gate. Since both men now seek the knockout ending, the third match ? if there is one ? should be a natural. Patterson not only surprised most of the "experts" (this writ er picked Johansson and thought Patterson's main chanoe was in a route-going decision) but he again proved himself to be a model worthy champion, and recalled that he never before had been judUd a great one. Moreover, as soon at he had brought the title back to the United States, he personally as sured the deposed Swede he would . get his rematch. Said | Floyd to an announcer: "I thought that would make him (eel better." Patterson, In (art, waa more composed than the ex-champions and boxing greats surrounding him. It was especially interesting to hear Rocky Marciano give the edge to Inxemar before the fight and then claim, afterward, that he had picked Patterson. Tony Galen to didn't think much of Patter son as s fighter before the bout, on the mike, but Fiord changed a lot of things during the bout. If he can continue to fight at about 190 pounds and not lose his fine edge and timing. Patterson could go on to become one of the greatest champions. He has defi nitely lifted himself but pf the suspect category with this win, and now must be rated a mean, dangerous and extremely fast punching heavyweight champion. GETS LOOT, GOBS Tulaa, Okla. ?

Speaking Of Golf By JOE MAPLES Several of our local players went to Gaitonia for the on* day Carolina Golf Assn. tournament last Sunday. It was an awful day for golf, being wet, cold and cloudy but they all managed to get in their rounds, some playing good, others not so well. Horace Dowling had a bad day, shooting 89 with a 7 handicap giving him a net score of 78. Jack Groce also had a rather had day shooting 85-6-79. Roger Tlwmas shot 94-16-78. J. E. Joines had 98 22-76. Raleigh CottreU had 96-16 80. Hubert Inman had 98-21-72. Bill Rowland had 86-7-79. Howard CottreU had 84-12-72. Howard had the best gross score of any of the players from here and he and Joines had the best net acores, each with 72. It is doubtful if any of these scores were good enough to win any prizes but it Is pos sible, playing under very rough weather conditions. A* of now we haven't heard if we had any win ners from here. Anyway, the boys all seemed to have had a food time and that is what count* most. The weekly "dogfight" of area golfers was held at the local course last week, with about 20 players from Boone, Blowing Rock, Gastonia Hickory and Spruce Pine taking part The team of Ernest Htjres, Frank Schford, Bill Williams and Charlie Elledge won with a best ^ ball scores of 64, seven under par.
