Swede’s ‘Mystery* Right Batters Floyd
Patterson, To Capture Boxing Throne
By MURRAY ROSE
Associated Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK, iffl — Ingemar
Johansson’s “mystery” right hand
turned out to be an atomic wea
pon — an explosive force that
propelled him to the world’s
heavyweight championship.
The “thunder and lightning”
that the undefeated Swede had
promised was unleashed in a pul
sating third round Friday night
that saw defending champion
Floyd Patterson felled seven times
and stripped of his crown in rain
soaked Yankee Stadium.
It was a right hand bomb that
burst against the jaw of the 5-1
favored American seconds after
the third round had started. The
power-packed right smashed Pat
terson to the floor on his back
and bereft him of his senses.
Calmly and coldly, as if he were
sighting a rifle, the handsome,
blue-eyed Viking dropped his
bleeding and reeling foe to the
canvas until Referee Ruby Gold
stein ended the slaughter with a

wave of his hands.
It went into the record books
as a technical knockout. But this
was pure destruction. The seven
counts were all in two minutes
and three seconds. It was- a mas
| sacre.
The mighty right, never dis
played in his lackluster training
maneuvers here, made the 26
year-old, 196-pounder the first
Swede ever to win a world boxing
championship.
It was a complete atonement
for Ingo’s humiliating disqualifi
cation for not fighting against
American Eddie Sanders in the
heavyweight championship final
of the 1952 Olympics at Helsinki.
In these sames games, Patterson
was one of the shining stars in
capturing • the 265-pound crown.
The astonishing upset, wit
nessed by some 30,000 at the ball
park and thousands more in thea
ters coast to coast, must rank with
such shockers as Max Schmeling’s
kayo of Joe Louis in 1936, Jim
Braddock’s triumph over Max
Baer in 1935 and Jersey Walcott’s
annihilation of Ezzard Charles in
1951.
The great triumph earned Jo
hansson a purse of about $248,
000 — most of which will be either
attached in law suits or held in
escrow for his return bout with
Patterson, probably in September.
Patterson will collect approxi
mately $560,000 from the gate,
theater-television, radio and
movies.
But ahead of the dimple-chinned
Swede, fifth non-American to win
boxing’s most prized -title, lie
countless riches. He may earn as
much as a million dollars for the
projected return with Patterson
in the United States.

U. S. and Italians
Sift Liglitning-Hit
Plane Debris
MILAN, Italy, UP> — A two
nation inquiry opened Saturday in
the flaming crash of an American
airliner that disintegrated in a
furious summer thunderstorm,
killing all 68 persons aboard.
Eyewitnesses said they saw a
huge lightning bolt rip into the
four-engine Constellation Friday.
But aviation experts were inclined
to doubt that lightning alone ex
ploded the Trans World Airlines
plane and caused Italy’s worst
air disaster.
The plane had taken off from
Malpensa Airport in this big
north Italian industrial city just
17 minutes before. It flew north
toward the Swiss Alps and into
the storm. It was headed for Paris
and then a nonstop flight to Chi
cago’s O’Hare Airport.
At Jeast 28 passengers and 6
crew members were Americans.
Bodies so badly mangled that
identification of most was not im
mediately possible, were collected
at an improvised shelter in the
woods.
Bits of the giant Constellation
were scattered in a three-mile
trail along- the ground among the
crowded villages north- of Milan.
People on the ground said they
saw the lightning bolt hit over
Castellanza. All reported the plane
then turned into a fireball. It
continued aloft with its gas tanks
exploding, they said, then hit the
ground near Marante in the shad
ow of the Alpine resort country.
The U. S. Civil Aeronautics
Board, which dispatched Martyn
Clarke, its assistant chief safety
engineer, to work with Italian of
ficials, has no record of any air
liner blowing up in flight after
being hit by lightning.
TWA said the last radio signal
heard from the plane was a report
that it had climbed to 10,000 feet.
But witnesses said they saw the
plane flying much lower.
Two San Antonio Plane
Disasters Mystifiy
Air Force Officials
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., UFi — A
jet bomber and a jet trainer
crashed on opposite sides of San
Antonio within 40 minutes of each
Other Friday night. Four airmen
died. There were no survivors.
The Air Force moved in heli
copters and road-building equip
ment early Saturday to bring out
the bodies and clear a path to
the boulder-strewn hillside where
a crash occurred.
Three bodies had been found
in the bomber crash still strapped
in the seats of the plane. The
parachute of one man was open,
indicating he may have tried to
eject himself just before the
crash. A freak side of the mishap
was the death of 20 to 30 head
of cattle who were in the 300
yard swath cut by the aircraft
along the hillside.

Gov. Long Heads
| For Farm With
New Pitchfork
COVINGTON, La., UR — Loui
siana Governor Earl H. Long de
serted the sanctuary of a motel
south of Covington Saturday and
headed for his beloved farm near
Winnfield in northern Louisiana.
The 63-year-old Governor, freed
only Friday from a mental hos
pital at nearby Mandeville, took
off in a black limousine for his
favorite haunt at Winnfield, about
200 miles from Covington.
Before leaving, the tempestuous
Long indicated he would return
to Covington Sunday night. Doc
tors ordered him to take a com
plete rest,' but he made no bones
about wanting to visit his farm.
Long went on a shopping spree
Friday night and bought a pitch
fork, two horse collars, a post
hole digger, a hoe and other farm
utensils.
He loaded the equipment into
the trunk of the limousine that
left the motel shortly before he
drove away. The pitchfork didn’t
fit in the car’s trunk, so the Gov
ernor put it on the backseat of
the car. *
Southeastern Alaska
Water Cruise Offered
FAIRBANKS — An example
of enterprise in the new State of
Alaska is a small boat cruise serv
ice recently inaugurated by a Pan
American Airways flight purser
who has flown the Alaska route
for the past ten years.
Paul Chaple of 2235 Everett N.,
Seattle, had long dreamed of hav
ing a cruiser for fishing, hunting
and sightseeing for operations in
the fascinating waterways of
Southeastern Alaska. A year ago,
he bought the 50-foot Arro. Be
tween flights he and his wife ren
ovated the vessel for U. S. Coast
Guard license and now the boat
is in business at Juneau.
The Arro has accommodations
for 35 persons on one-day excur
sions; sleeps ten for longer charter
cruises ($150 a day), and is cap
tained by Capt. Earl Bryner, long
time Alaskan who has fished,
hunted and sailed Alaska waters
for many years.
