Henry Cooper Sets Sights On Floyd Patterson Bout
Henry Cooper declared he is ready to fight Floyd Patterson any time with plans for a summer bout on the West Coast or New York. Manager Jim Wicks said an offer from George Parnassus could move the fight forward while Patterson eyes a Miami Beach defense for July. Cooper, British champion since 1959, has won seven straight and holds a 23-7-0- record. Patterson is seeking a title defense under Feature Sports Inc. in New York. The same AP dispatch notes a Yankees hotel switch in St Petersburg to house all players under one roof including four Negroes.

Maryland bills seek half mile track leases and transfers
A Maryland Senate bill would allow a half mile track to lease its race days for 10 years at a mile track, with the Racing Commission approving transfers after 10 years. The measure, one of several racing day transfer proposals, aims to shift Cumberland days and may yield tax savings versus outright purchase.
