Caj ylay Fight In November By LARRY BOKCK Cassius Clay's next fight is planned for Louisville during the last week of November and will be-a non-televised bout. Bill Faversham, one of the blue-ribbon group behind Clay, said he liked the last week of next month because it will not conflict with college football or basketball. Football will be over in this area and basketball won't have Jl Villa Vlilllhlt COR. 7th BDWY 1 Sports in Brief Scheffing Voted A.L.'s Top Pilot Alston Signs For "62; Honk Due Big Boost; Davis Cup Pairings Set From Wirt Dispatches Bob Scheffing, who led the Detroit Tigers to a surprising second-place finish in his first season in the American League, was named the circuit's manager-of-the-year for 1961 yesterday in the annual Associated Press poll.

He made his pro debut here on October, 1960, unanimously de-cisioning Tunney Hunsakcr in six before 6,180 fans. The group backing Clay put up about $25,000 giving Clay $10,000 to sign, and paying various other things, How has it come out after just about a year of campaigning? "We haven't lost money and we haven't made any money," said Faversham. The group isn't interested in profits or losses, declared Faversham, but hastily adding "now." The main objective now, he said, is to bring Clay along. VS.

Bellamy, the former Indiana University All-America, is among the former Kentuckiana college stars on the Packer squad.

The guess is it might be someone like Pete Rademacher.

Despite Clay's stopping of Alex Miteff, the Clay backers aren't disposed to rushing along their prized heavyweight prospect. Clay Gets Vacation Indeed, Clay was given a two and one-half week vacation after the Miteff bout. He came out of that fight with a puffed left hand. But, said Faversham, X-rays were taken and disclosed nothing serious. Clay is to get a final check today.

The 19 year-old Olympic champion, taking it easy at home, said yesterday that the swelling is down. He hurt the mitt, he added, when he hit Miteff on the head with a couple of left hooks and straight hands. Clay had hurt his right hand some in two previous fights. The right hand came out of the bout with Miteff seemingly O.K. It was the right that tagged Miteff in the sixth round, decked him, and rendered him so helpless the referee stopped the fight.

The right-hand shot, Clay said yesterday, "wasn't the hardest but the most accurate and best timed" he'd ever thrown.

Mike it Bellamy In Habit Of Starring To Lead Packers Against Lakers Here Walt Bellamy made a habit of collecting honors while at the University of Indiana.

And he's expected to continue that habit with the newly formed Chicago Packers in the National Basketball Association. The Packers, who boast other former Kentuckiana college stars such as John Turner and Charley Tyra of the University of Louisville and Archie Dees and Bob Leonard of Indiana, will play the Los Angeles Lakers Sunday night at Freedom Hall. Pacing the Lakers are Elgin Baylor, Jerry West and "Hot Rod" Hundley. On Olympic Team Bellamy was a two-time All-American at Indiana; twice an All-Big Ten selection, and he also was a member of the U. S.

Olympic and Pan American teams. Bellamy, 6-11, was the first choice of Packer Coach Jim Pollard in the 1961 college draft. And no wonder. Ohio State's great Jerry Lucas says Bellamy is the best man he ever played against. And Branch McCracken, his coach at Indiana, said Bellamy improved more during his college career than any player he ever had.

During his high school career, Bellamy averaged 31 points a game. At Indiana, he scored more than 22 points a contest. His rebounding set an Indiana record. He averaged more than 16 rebounds a game, pulling down 1,087 in three years. He was the third leading scorer in the history of I.
