Liston's Manager Speaks Piece In Fighter's Behalf
PHILADELPHIA AP An angry George Katz manager of heavyweight Sonny Liston said he does not think Liston will be convicted of impersonating a police officer, calling the charge a mistake. Katz dismissed Arch Hindman’s claim Liston has no business in boxing, defending Liston’s character and noting his baseball play with kids as evidence of a fun loving nature. The incident stemmed from a traffic stop by two men and Mrs Dolores Ellis who thought she was halted by officers.
