Gene Fullmer to
Defend Title Tonight
OGDEN, Utah — Utah’s
brawling Gene Fullmer has fought
off five successive attempts to re
lieve him of the National Box
ing Assn, share of the world mid
dleweight championship.
The surprising thought today
on the eve of his sixth title de
fense is that Fullmer is only a
mild favorite to retain the crown
in his 15-round fight with Flo
rentino Fernandez of Cuba, a no
vice in championship circles.
Th two meet in Ogden Stadium
before Gene’s home state follow
ers — many of whom are openly
skeptical of their champion —
and a nationally televised audi
ence.
Neither Fullmer nor his mana
ger, Marv Jensen, are taking Fer
nandez lightly.
They know the 25-year-old Cu
ban in his three fights since grad
j uating from the Welterweight Di
vision has scored knockouts in
the 160-pound division.
Hijacking Nothing New
To Pilot of Continental Jet
I LOS ANGELES — Violence
I in the air is nothing new to Capt.
Byron D. Rickards, 52, command
er of the hijacked Continental
Airlines jetliner held at El Paso,
Tex.
Mrs. Cora Rickards, his wife,
told a reporter this is the second
time in his 30 years as a com
mercial airline pilot that he has
been held hostage at gunpoint
aboard his plane.
The first incident was in 1930
when Rickards flew for Pan
American Airways. Peruvian
rebels commandeered his Ford
tri-motor plane and forced it to
land at Arequipa, Peru, during
a revolution there.
When the flier refused to take
to the air to drop propaganda
leaflets, rebels held him and his
crew of three, along with the
plane, for several days, his wife
said. He finally was permitted to
fly out, through intervention of
British officials, and the United
States government gave him a ci
tation for saving mail aboard the
plane.
C. V. Olson of Bluff, well
known mining man, leaves today
for Salt Lake City, for medical
care under Dr. Davies, who mined
in the Bluff area last year.

body of stalling. His father
agreed. Sudenly they ordered a
takeoff. The big plane rolled down
the runway, Border Patrol cars in
pursuit.
Sub-machine gun and rifle fire
could be heard dimly in the noise
of the jet engines. The plane came
to a halt, its landing gear and
engine damaged, its pressurized
cabin punctured by the gunfire.
Quickly, ambulances, baggage
trailers, trucks and cars with
armed men encircled the damaged
plane. In the wild scene, mechan
ics tinkered with the plane, still
stalling. Spectators pushed close.
Stewardesses Alighted
At 12:55 p.m., a back door to
the plane opened and the steward
esses alighted.
Minutes later, the other four
crewmen alighted as the FBI
agent-in-charge, Francis Crosby
went aboard to negotiate with the
gun-wielding Beardens.
Aboard with Crosby were the
Beardens, Gilman and other thro
passenger hostages, Pfc. Truman
Cleveland of St. Augustine, Fla.;
Jack Casey, a Continental Air
lines employe from Houston; and
Luis L. Erives of Los Angeles.
As the negotiations progressed,
Gilman and Crosby, with their
eyes made their plans known to
one another. Suddenly, Bearden
dropped his eyes. Gilman slugged
him — a vicious knockout blow.
At the same instant, Crosby
overpowered the Bearden boy.
At 1:48 p.m., the hostages step
ped from the plane.
A relieved officer said it was
all over.

Chocolate Drink Sweetened Without Sugar
This young man is about to enjoy a pertect aiternoon snacn.
To a big glass of milk he is adding a new instant chocolat<
drink mix. For this new mix, developed by the Researcl
Laboratories of the Carnation Company, a high level of nonfs
milk is combined with a medium fat cocoa and sweetened with
out sugar. Just the right amount of sweetness is provided (
non-nutritive sweeteners that do not contain calories.
Thus, a happy boy enjoys a delicious chocolate drink
which actually fortifies the milk to which he adds it witl
extra milk nutrients. And a happy mother knows that he:
child is taking in a sufficient daily supply of tooth-building
calcium and phosphorus, plus a substantial bonus of proteir
and B vitamins—without paying the price of a potential in
crease in dental caries.
Here are other points of interest for mothers. The new
chocolate drink mix takes seconds to prepare, according to
package directions. Instantly soluble, it may be made with
either milk or water—served hot or cold. And, of course, it
is low in calories. When reliquefied with water, an eight-ounce
glass has only 78 calories, as compared to 81 calories for plain
skim milk, and costs about fourteen cents a quart.
