Interest low for Patterson Liston title bout in Chicago
Boxing writer Bill McCormick notes weak public interest ahead of the Patterson Liston heavyweight title fight at Comiskey Park on Sept 25. Few fans are aware of the bout, and many are skeptical of the purses and hype. Industry observers say promotions must sharpen to draw crowds and pay TV, with seats signed for about 963000 but filling remains uncertain.

Kubek Returns From Army Eyes Shortstop Comeback
Tony Kubek, back with the New York Yankees after a nine month Army hitch, is in springlike form in August as he works to reclaim his pro shortstop role. He says he prefers shortstop but hits better in the outfield, and his early return includes a .353 average after six games. Yankees coach Ralph Houk plans to keep Tommy Tresh at short until Kubek proves rust is gone in left field.

Injury Less Serious For Davenport In Giants
San Francisco third baseman Jim Davenport, once feared out for the season after a hand injury from a Don Drysdale fastball, is expected back in about 10 days. Manager Alvin Dark said he may be used in a limited role initially. The Boston Patriots and New York Titans cancelled their AFL exhibition in Atlanta on Aug. 25 due to poor turnout. The clubs may relocate the game to New England or New York state.
