That was the news I received from fightmonger Jack Solomons recently. Solomons broke off from roughing it down at Cannes to tell me that his plans for cinema television, that lush source of cash which enables the Americans to corner most of the big fights, were ready for launching in the autumn,

He added: "Previously I was impossible to think of staging the big world title fights fo Hritain.

Berra's Homer Gives American League 5-3 Triumph In All-Star Game

Los Angeles, Aug. 3.

Yogi Berra, reaching back to the glorious days of the New York Yankees, today smashed a tremendous two-run homer in the third inning to provide a 5-3 victory margin as the American-League squared its 1959 All-Star series with the National League.

It was a battle of home runs in the odd-shaped Coliseun ball park, with five being hit out of the park to the accompanying roar of 54,982 fans watching the first All-Star game ever held in the West.
