18 Thursday, September 14. 1967 The Ottawa Journal TITLE FIGHT SATURDAY Ellis Gives Edge To Mildenberger NEW YORK (UPQ Jimmy Ellis doesn't seem at all concerned about the outcome of the heavyweight tion bout between Karl Mil-denberger and Oscar Bonavena in Frankfurt. Germany on Saturday, but he probably will be meeting the winner on Nov. II. Ellis, who stopped Leotis Martin in the ninth round of their quarterfinal match in the heavyweight elimination tourney, said be might give an edge to Mildenberger in the match' Saturady.

"I think Bonavena might have trouble with a southpaw," said Ellis. 'I've never fought a southpaw as a pro. but I did fight a couple in the amateurs. It's completely different You're used to see a man facing you one way and all of a sudden it's all turned around. An official of the Ameri- can.

Broadcasting Company, which is televising the bouts in the tournament, went along with Ellis and said he was almost certain to meet the winner of the Milden-berger-Bonavena fight in the semi-final round. Thad Spencer who brat Ernie Terrell in a quarterfinal will probably meet the winner of the Floyd Patterson-Jerry Quary fight that, will be held in Los Angeles on Oct 28. The proposed date of that semi-final bout is Dec 2 but neither site for the semi-final bouts has been determined. The area where Ellis spoke has been a trouble spot in past "I had 60 arrests the first year I was here. said local patrolman Oswald Thompson, who helped get the new gym built for the area, "but since our athletic program started there have been 20 in the past year." The adulation that Ellis experienced at the.

amateur show is new for him. Only two years ago he was considered a mediocre middleweight, but he has blossomed into a ranking contender for the vacant heavyweight title.

Kansas City pitcher Lew Krausse said Wednesday he was disappointed in the fact that his teammates accepted, by the margin of a single vote, the move to withdraw their unfair labor practice charge against owner Charles O. Finley. Krausse said the decision by the players in a clubhouse vote at Boston Tuesday was "a majority and that's all that but admitted that he was dissatisfied with single vote margin in the decision. He said that, the player vote has "no bearing on my situation." After a two-day hearing before Commissioner William Eckert in New York Tuesday, the Athletics and Finley came to a mutual agreement in the feud. The players agreed to withdraw their unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board and Finley said he would not take any more action against the players as a consequence of the dispute.

I've got to go right to the end." said Krausse, who is appealing through players association director Marvin Miller Finley's four-day suspension of him after alleged rowdiness on a plane from Boston to Kansas City Aug. 3. seems a shame that with all the turmoil arid pressure and strain and bad publicity that was put into. i that nlauttr getting so little out of it" Bill Arnold Cross-Country Winner Bill Arnold of the Ottawa Valley Track Club won the senior men's six mile event in the Ottawa Twilight Cross Country meet held at Bells Comers Wednesday.
