The White Falcon - 19.06.1981, Qupperneq 11
June 19, 1981 White Falcon 11 Boxing The vacant U.S. Boxing Association Middleweight Championship has been filled. Frank "the Animal" Fletcher of Philadelphia won it by pounding out a unanimous ten-round decision over Norberto Sabater. With the victory in Atlantic City, New Jersey Sunday, Fletcher boosted his record to 12-2-1. The 27-year-old southpaw is ranked eighth in the world by "ring" maga- zine. Sabater is 19-1. The 23-year-old Brooklyn, New York middleweight is ranked eighth by the World Boxing Association. The Fletcher-Sabater bout became a USBA title fight after Curtis Parker of Philadelphia was stripped of his title for failing to defend the crown since May, 1980. The rules call for a fighter to defend his title at least every six months. Golf At 38 years old, Ray Floyd is •ying the greatest year of his on the pro golf tour, and Sunday was no exception at Harrison, New York. Floyd sank a three-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole for a two-under par 69, giving him a two-shot vic- tory over Craig Stadler, Bobby Clam- pett and Gibby Gilbert in the $400,000 Westchester Golf Classic. The $72,000 first prize boosted Floyd's 1981 winnings to more than $500,000, including a $250,000 bonus he got for winning two Florida tourneys back to back. Floyd finished with a nine-under par 275. Stadler shot a 70 in the final round, Gilbert had a 72 and Clampett a 68 to tie for second at 277. George Burns, with a brilliant 65, moved into fifth place at 279 while Tom Kite finished tied with Leonard Thompson, Ron Streck and Lee Elder at 280. Auto racing Belgium's Jacky Ickx came out of retirement to compete in this year's 24-hour road race at Le Mans, France. And when the checkered flag fell, it seemed the veteran driver had never been away. Ickx and his partner Derek Bell of Britain captured the 49th running the classic with an average speed 124.94 miles an hour. For Ickx "it was a record fifth win at Le Mans. The French crew of Jacky Haran, Jean Louis Schlesser and Philippe Streiff came in second. SHORT SHOTS Ickx' victory was marred by fatal accidents during the early part of the race Saturday. Veteran French Driver Jean-Louis Lafosse and a race marshall were killed. Gym note The Base swimming pool is now open seven days a week.

In doubles action, Fred Stolle and Owen Davidson beat Cliff Drysdale and Roger Taylor 6-3, 4-6, 7-5.' The tourney was for payers over 35. Track & field Cuba's heralded invasion of the United States with its brightest track stars turned into a flop over the weekend at the Brooks Track Meet in Berkeley. Roberto Jauntorena and Silvio Leonard, heroes of Cuba's track forces, did not perform up to their past standards. In Jauntorena's case, the best were Willie Smith and Tony Darden, and he didn't even come close'to threatening either in the 400 run. Smith won the event in 45.65 with Darden second in 46.40 and Eugene Sanders third in 46.57. Jauntorena, who scored one of the biggest doubles in Olympic History in 1976 at Mon- treal when he won the 400 and 800, finished sixth in 47.34. Leonard, the silver medalist at Moscow in the 100, finished third Saturday behind Ron Brown and Emmitt King, and third again in the 200 behind Mark Kent and Tim Foster.
