Liston's Adviser Figures Johnson As An Opponent ; By MURRAY ROSE Mjw YORK (AP) —- Every week and sometimes twice a week. Sonny Liston's adviser comes up with e new opponent for the heavyweight king and reiterates the champion‘s con- tract with Championship Sports, me. is broken. The latest opponent me tioned by adviser Jack Nilon is Harold Johnson.) another Phila- chphIan who is the light heavy- weight champion of the world. This is a bit of strategy to get Floyd Patterson into the ring with Sonny as quickly as possible. The Liston camp fig- ures Patterson. who went 126 seconds with Sonny at Chicago last Sept. 25. won't be arou uch longer in a return fight. The difficulty is getting a place in put on the talked about return. Nilon and Liston don't want any part Championship sports. which promoted the first fight. Most of the money for that quickie has been tied up by the government which wants to make sure it collects the taxes due on that multi-miliion dollar promotion.

Patterson has the right to pick the site. date and promoter for the second fight. SAY CONTRACT BROKEN Under n o r m a 1 conditions. Nilon and Liston would follow the course of boxing history and have the contract broken. Both h _ insist for the record that to contract has been broken. So why the repeated cries that the contract has been broken and that Liston is a free agent? It boils down to the Liston image, not a very good one up to date. Patterson was the man who insisted that Liston should get the chance at the title. Therefore. Liston does feel ob- ligated to give Floyd another shot if he wants it. He WOuld look like a fourth-grade heel if he didn't give Patterson a return and he knows it. Therefore all of the hullabaloo from the Liston camp is to put pressure on Patterson to fight in February or March so that Royals Conquer Junior Penguins Sandy's Parkdale R o y a l s own a five point lead in the 1s- land Senior Hockey League by virtue of their 1041 decision over Old Spain Penguins last night at The Sports Arena. Led by Vince Mulligan a n d Angie Carroll who scored four and t h r e e goals respectively. the Royals withstood a furious third period onslaught by the Juniors and then roared back with four unanswered tallies in the last two minutes and twenty-one seconds of play. Down 52 entering the third, Bucko Trainor‘s Penguins look- ed badly beaten. Their most ar- dent supporters didn't hope for too much in the closing chapter. However before the period was rightly started. the Baby Birds had struck for four fast goals and they were in front 8-5. It remain a 6-5 hockey game until the 13.11 mark when Jim Cullen took Gallant‘s pass and slipped it by Maclnnis in th e Royals‘ cage. Angie C a r r 0 ll closed the gap to 7-6 but Cullen was back again. making, it 8-6. this time at 15.31. With less than four minutes of play remaining. it looked as though the Birds were c o ming through with their first decision over the Royals. But it wasn't to be as the Royals' power he. gap to explode in real earnest. Vince Mulligan potted his fourth goal of the night at 17.23 and 28 seconds later Carroll. on a beautiful solo rush. squared matters at 8-8. he Royals were just starting and Gillis and Carroll were back again to make it a 10-8 battle before that final siren screamed. Fans saw plenty of hockey as both teams went all out in an effort to serve up a p l e in sing brand of hockey. The Juniors gallant comeback and the Roy- als' great rebound were the features of that hectic third stanza that saw eleven goals 1 cored. Penguins grabbbed a 2-0 lead in the first half of the first ses- lsion but the Mulligan boys took lover the rest of the s e s s ion. Vince beat Don Frizzell three with @uardimt m Charlottetown, Fri.

The last time we saw the Eagles in action here was when t ey were still in search of that first victory. Since then they have played a pair of games and won both of them. beating the Combines at Civic Stadium and drubbing the Penguins at the air base. The Eagles may be minus a few players for their Decem- ber 27 appearance because of Christmas levaes. However, .wlfli these two wins tucked away, the boys who will appear ;will have a new outlook on things. They have beaten two teams in the loop to date and they’d love to close out the year 1962 ‘with a verdict over Sa d . The Eagles should be decidedly popular from here on.
