Robinson
Loses Crown
To Britisher
LONDON, July 11 —W— Sugar
Ray Robinson, once considered box
ing's invincible fighting machine,
was stripped of his world middle
weight crown today after absorbing
a terrific beating by Randolph Tur
pin, a comparative newcomer to fist
fighting’s big time.
Turpin, 23-year-old Negro almost
unknown outside of his British
homeland, astounded the boxing
world by soundly whipping the New
York titleholder in *15 rounds last
night as a capacity crowd of 18,000
in Earl's Court arena cheered in dis
belief.
The 31-year-old Robinson’s fistic
world collapsed around his battered
features, but he’ll get a chance on
his home grounds to get his title
back next September.
Immediately after the fight, Rob
inscn’s manager, George Gainford, j
said a return bout would be held
Sept. 26 in New York.
“He was better than I was," Rob
inson said without offering any
alibi “I lost,” he said simply.
Turpin finished without a scratch,
while Robinson just barely escaped
in the 14th round and ended up
with a deep cut on his left eyebrow
and another gash high on his left
cheekbone.
The Associated Press scorecard
gave Robinson, who had lost only
one other fight in 133 bouts cover
ing 11 years, just four rounds.
Turpin got nine, with two even.
Robinson weighed 154'j, to Tur
pin’s 158 :i».

Show Things
slave Changed
DETROIT. July 11 — — The
National League inner circle today
saw an end to the American League’s
"reign of terror” and predicted a
new cycle shifting the batting pow
er to the senior circnit.
Gil Hodges, strapping Brooklyn
first baseman and the National
League’s home run leader, said after
yesterday’s 8-3 triumph over the
Americans:
“It is the National that has the
home run hitters now, not the
American. Yes, sir, times have
changed.”
Ralph Kiner, the National’s home
run king for the last five years,
echoed this sentiment:
. “We’re the big guys now and they
are the little boys," he said. “I
cculd see that before the game when
we lined up for the National An
them."
Hodges and Kiner hit two of the
Nationals’ four homers as they bom
barded five pitchers for a dozen hits
and ran up the biggest run total
ever made by a National League
All-Star team.
Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cards
and Bob Elliott of the Boston Braves
also smashed homers for the win
ners. Those of Hodges and Elliott
came with a man on base. George
Kell and Vic Wertz of Detroit hit
solo four-baggers for the Americans.
“It’s a brand new cycle," beamed
Charlie Segar, National League
publicist. “Watch us from now on.”
Victimized for years by such dyna
miters as Babe Ruth. Lou Gehrig
Jimmy Fox, Hank Greenberg, Joe
DiMaggio and Charlie Keller, the
Nationals had won only five of the
17 previous All-Star tilts and had
dropped 30 of 47 world series. They
haven’t won a world series since
1946. Last year they had to go 14
innings to win the All-Star game
4-3.
The Nationals entered the game
with the more robust batting aver
ages and better pitching that be
l:ci the 7-5 odds favoring tne Amer
icans. The results bore them out.
Not only did they outslug the Amer
icans but they outpitched and out
fielded them.
The emphasis was strictly on the
home run but little Richie Ashburn,
f'eet-footed Philadelphia Phillies
cutfieider, hioughl the huge Briggs
Stadium crowd of 52.075 to its feet
with a brilliant leaping catch in the
sixth inning to rob Wertz of a near
homer. Ashburn caught the ball in
front of the right centerfield screen
4f0 feet distant after a long run.
National League pitching wasn’t
bad, either. Except for an unsteady
two-inning stint by Robin Roberts,
youthful Phillies’ righthander, and
a couple of home run tosses by Sal
Maglie of the New York Giants, the
National’s four-man hurling corps
was excellent.
Don Newcombe, Brooklyn’ big
righthander, was superb.
Five hurlers went to the hill for
the Americahs. Except for Ned Gar
ver of St. Louis, all were pasted
freely.
Eddie Lopat, pride of the Yankees
was charged with the loss.
SEAL CONTROL
CORDOVA AREA
BEGINS IN FALL
Preliminary plans are under way
for hair seal control in the Cop
per River area, C. L. Anderson, di
rector of the Alaska Department
of Fisheries said today.
He recently met there with mem
bers of the Cordova Fisherman’s
Union (Ind) and cannery repre
sentatives. A committee was ap
pointed consisting of Ira Rothwell,
representing the ADF; Justin Strom
and Vernon Paulson for the can
neries; and Harold Hanson and
Mike Babich for the fishermen.
The New England Fish Co. and
the Parks Canning Co. pledged
$1,5C0 each to the seal control pro
gram. The Fisherman's Union is
putting up $1 for each $5 spent by
the Department in that area.
It is estimated that between 10,
0C0 and 20,000 seals prey on the
salmon on the Copper River flats
alone.
Nothing can be done until this
year’s salmon run is over, Anderson
said, because’ it is planned to use
depth charges. Experiments of this
nature have proved effective. Hun
ters will follow and cleanup those
seals that have been stunned or
missed. All local help will be used.
Anderson said he was gratified j
with the enthusiastic response from
the Cordova area.
Work on seals is also going for
ward in the Stikine area which is
regarded as another strategic dist
rict where the seals do great dam
age.

SALMON TAGGING j
PROGRAM TO START
OFFSHORE IN JULY
j The research staff of the U. S.
i Fish and Wildlife Service is add-1
! ing another chapter to its pink'
almon tagging program in South
: east Alaska by transferring opera- |
| ticns to the West Coast and Sum
ner Strait districts.
A purse seiner has been char
i fered for an eleven-day period. July
21 to 31, in an attempt to inter
cept migrating pinks in the out
side waters oif Baranof and Noyes
Islands. Offshore waters have pro
vided excellent, but sporadic, sein
ing in the past years and it is
hoped to obtain more information
on their movements.
On August 1. operations will shift
to traps at Port Beauclerc and
Point Baker in Sumner Strait.
Traps will be operated before the
season opens, and during dosed
week ends in order that all pinks
| taken can be tagged and then re
I leased to continue to their spawning
j grounds.
The program is in charge of Carl
| Elling, who is associated with the
F'WS Montlake laboratory in Se
attle.
Purpose of the Sumner Strait and
offshore experiments is to ascer
tain routes of migration as the sal
mon pass from offshore feeding
grounds to their spawning streams
and to measure their rate of pro
gress. A better understanding of the
habits of these salmon is necessary
in planning efficient and effective
regulations.
j A reward of 50 cents is paid by
j FWS for every tag returned with
I information concerning time, place
| and method by which the tagged
fish is caught. The cooperation of
every fisherman and cannery wor
ker is requested in watching for
tags and returning them with the
correct information to the Service.
LOCH NESS MONSTER
'REALLY' EXISTS,
CLAIMS TOWN CLERK
- I
LINCOLN, Eng., July 10, — (*>—!
I Town Clerk J. Harper Smith1
claimed today he saw the famous;
Loch Ness monster on June 27.
Except for an errant raindrop,
' Smith told a reporter, he would
I have a priceless moving picture to
' prove it.
“I am a reformed skeptic,” said
I Smith. “The monster exists. My
son and I watched it for 15 rmn
i utes. It looks like the long-necked
i prehistoric dinosaurs reconstructed
| by scientists from fossil bones."
Smith and his son, Army Lt.
(Charles Smith, were on a fishing
tiip to Loch Ness at the time.
Smith said he had planned to take
his movie camera along, but al
the last minute a raindrop splat
tered on the hotel window and he
decided the weather would be un
sunitable.
Smith said he and his son spot
ted the monster a mile from their
rowboat. He continued:
-My son said ‘that looks like a
periscope.' Then we realized what
it really was. We were speechless
and spellbound.
