The entire stadium is likely to be crammed to its 25,000 capacity with $400.000 worth of paying customers. Many of these disagree with the expert opinion that Rademacher's survival will be short under the impact of the champion's slashing fists. A large proportion of the crowd comes from Washington's Yakima Valley, where Pete grew up. or from Georgia, where he was an Army lieutenant when he became Olympic heavyweight champion. They are for Rademacher to the last man and feel in their hearts he can do what very few believe is possible and which never has been done before: step from the peasant world of amateurism into the throne room of fistiania.

Rademacher himself says: "If I didn't think I could whip Floyd Patterson I wouldn't be here." His former college boxing coach Ike Deeter of Washington State, says Pete can win, "but he must do it in five rounds or less. I don't believe he'll be able to pace himself beyond that." Less than a month ago Patterson, 22, cut down Hurricane Jackson in New York. The referee stopped the fight in the 10th round. Tonight the champion will meet a much larger and stronger opponent--and one Cus D'Amato. Patterson's has called more skillful than the tamed Hurricane.

Rademacher, 28, goes into the ring with a weight advantage of some 25 pounds. The 210-pounder has 'almost spindly legs for such a large man, but he is massive in torso, shoulders and biceps. He can hit--his string of more than 30 knockouts attests to that. He can also be hit. He has been knocked out twice in his amateur career of 79 bouts.

He has been knocked down in othersand won them. Those who have watched his -camp workouts expect big Pete to force the fight, to keep atop the champion and lessen the force of Patterson's sharp jabs and vicious combinations.
