PI'I'!'SBU-RGH. July 18 - (AP5 --Jersey Joe Walcott. incredible 37-year-old Camden. NJ.. pappy guy. cllmaxed an amazing rags- to-riches alga tonight by knock- in: out Ezzard Charles in 56 sec- onds of the seventh round to win the world heavyweight champion- ship. He is the oldest man ever to win the title.

A smashing left hook that landed flush on Clni-lea' jaw drop- ped the 29-year-old Cincinnati negro on his face with a stunning shock. Charles tried to pull him- self up and was just about to make it at the count of nine when ho.tumbled on his back into I neutral corner.

A Ho-1 underdog making his fifth bid for the crown. he 11- most won from Joe Louis in 1917. The amazing Walcow scored one of the most ltunning upacu in recent ring history - as phi-tling as Ray Robinson”: recent defeat by Britain”: Randy Turpin.

Walcotfs payoff punch brought a swarm of fans storming into the ring. It; was several minutes be- fore the police could clear the invading horde.

This dazzling nu-prise before I whopping crowd that jammed Forbes Field. knocked out I Joe Louis-Charles match. tenta- tively scheduled for New York In September. Charles, however. was protected by I return-match contract. He probably will meet Walcott again instead of the Louis match, and the Brown Bomber will have to wait another year for a chance.

Making the ninth defence of the crown he won by outpolntlng Jersey Joe at Chicago in 'June. 1949. Ezzard ran flush into that zlnglng left from the "old man of the ring."

This third match'of the "series" between these old rivals yanked the big crowd out of its seats with shocking speed. Instead of ii champion easily spearing a per- sistent but over-aged challenger, there was Ezzy on the deck,

Nobody gave Walcott much or a chance except his own follow. ers who claimed he was robbed in his first Louis fight and botn previous scraps with Charles,

You couldn't even find a solid betting price on the match. so lopsided it seemed to be. some said it was up as high as 5 1.2 to 1 last night.

Old Jersey Joe. making a care” of being a challenger after 21 years in the pro ring, was spear- ing Charles with those head punches all night. He drew blood from the champlon's mouth .5 early as the fourth and raised a lump under his right eye in the sixth.

But there was no warning or the sudden ending. Neither but had been on the deck at close to
