All had the same 'Help me break the boy cott and get a bout with Rocky Marci ano." Now that kind hearted, enerous Jim Norris has set a September date for the Mar- ciano-Moore battle, Archie is back at his mlmeogTaph grinding out "personal" letters of gratitude. "Now that it is all over, except for the fight, and I'm not concerned about that for fighting is my business," Archie spells out brightly, "I want you to know how much I appreciate the help, co-operation and over-all assistance given me by the Fourth Estate, and most especially you. I realize fully, how much harder my road to Marciano would have been without the help of the press. CHANGE OF PACE: As one long accustomed to receiving "fan" letters starting: "Dear Sir You Cur!" I naturally am deeply touched by Archie's sentimental rote. It's a source of great satisfaction to know too, that I was so influential in swaying Jim Norris to make the Marciano-Moore fight.

Previously, I've had grave misgivings about my influence upon and with Norris. I've spoken to Norris several times and written pointedly about the low caliber bouts his International Boxing Club consistently "packaged" for Detroit but he never seemed to care.

All-Star Pitchers Bob Tur-ley, of the Yankees, and Robin Roberts, of Philadelphia, performed as all-stars should Saturday, but two other hurl- in in Aiuwaukee were rudely roughed up. Turley blanked the Washington Senators. 4 to 0, on two hits, a harmless pair of sixth inning singles, as he posted his 11th victory. He struck out four in the second inning. He retired the Pirates in 1-2-3 order in every other inning.

a THINGS WERE roujrh, how- ever, for Cleveland's Early Wynn and Baltimore's Jim Wilson in their final All-star tuneups; Wvnn w. tacRed for a three-run home run by Walt DroP as the Indians were blanked by Chicago White Sox "rookie" Connie Johnson, 6 to 0, and fell five games behind the league leading Yankees.

However, Stan Musial hit one for the Cards and it came with the bases loaded in the sixth inning. That was the game.

Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle, a couple of Yankee All-Stars, gave Turley all the batting encouragement he needed. Berra pounded out his loth home run. a triple and a double, driving in all four runs, while Mantle collected a double and four singles in five times at bat. Roberts, who now has a 13-7 mark, contributed his first home run of the season to thf Phillips' I attack, which included a homer by Andy Seminick and a single, double and triple by Del Ennis. JOHNSON, a 6-4 righthander up for another trial with the White Sox, struck out 12 Indians and allowed six hits as he easily Wynn.

Chicago now trails Clevelend by one game and the Yrtikees by six. Wynn was relieved by Bob Feller, Who was the pitching star of the All- Star game back in 1939. Ellis Kinder, another old-timer, picked up the victory for Boston as the Red Sov kept pare. 7'2 games behind, in the hot American Eeagvie race.

Putting everything in its proper place, after wandering ground here for a little while, Ted has hit at a .332 average 'away from home, compared to a .363 figure in Fenway Park. N.L.

Parks Tough for Ted HIS ALL-STAR story follows a similar pattern except that he just can't seem to hit when he is carried outside his wn league. His combined average after 10 All-Star Games is a potent .379. 1 But when you break it down to his hitting in A. L. and compare it to his N.L.

average, it's a different tale. Ted has hit at a .470 clip when the All-Star Game was "played in the American League's cities.

Moore and Johnston, however, have a strange fighter-manager relationship. Archie' home is "where I hang my hat" although in recent year he' used Toledo for a mailing address. Moore seldom sees his manager, except when in training for a fight.

Johnston played no part in Moore's "pressure campaign" to win support for a Marciano bout. Instead, an odd group of Toledo men conceived and financed it. Moore's "ghosts" and "angels" were Bob Reese, an automobile dealer; Dr. Nicholas Dallas, a psychiatrist, and Don Wolfe, a newspaperman. If Archie can continue to develop his left hook and right cross between sessions at the, mimeograph machine, he mav furnish Marciano with an interesting evening.
