New York UPI report says Joe Machen seeks to bar Sweden's Ingemar Johansson from fighting Floyd Patterson for the heavyweight title. A federal judge ordered a trial after talks with attorneys failed to settle disputes over a return bout agreement signed by promoter Edvin Ahlqvist and claimed manager authority. The case centers on Johansson’s unsigned return bout pact drawn in Goeteborg last Sept. 13 before Johansson became Patterson’s challenger.
