Scoreboard

P: Carl ("Bobo") Olson (169 Ibs.), middleweight champion of the world, bounced the former Light-Heavyweight Champion Joey Maxim (175 Ibs.) off the canvas of San Francisco's Cow Palace and earned a unanimous decision. Long a competent boxer, Bobo likes to think that he has the heft and punch to rate a crack at Heavyweight Champion Rocky Marciano (187 Ibs.), may well have proved his point. P:Less than a month after they whipped the Montreal Canadiens for the National Hockey League championship, Detroit's Red Wings took on Les Canadiens again for the Stanley Cup. Without their suspended star, "Rocket" Richard (TIME, March 28), Les Canadiens managed to push the series to the seven-game limit, but the red-hot Red Wings skated off with the cup and the world championship. P: While Bowie's horse players broiled under the Baltimore sun, stewards studied movies of the Governor's Gold Cup race, decided that Boston Doge had committed no foul, gave the unkempt little sprinter his tenth straight victory. P:Even Coach "Rusty"Callow figures that Navy's long-unbeaten crew (three years, 30 races and the 1952 Olympic championship) is stroking toward disaster. But the Middies, who have lost six veterans from their varsity eight, postponed the inevitable, outrowed Princeton by 2 1/2 lengths on Lake Carnegie.
