Who Won
P: Honolulu Middleweight Carl ("Bobo") Olson, a technical knockout, after six rounds of a scheduled ten-round bout with The Bronx's badly outclassed Gene Hairston; in Manhattan's Madison Square Garden. At ringside: Middleweight Champion Sugar Ray Robinson, displaying a surgically rebuilt nose and a lack of interest in a future match with Olson, who is the probable heir to Robinson's crown--if Sugar Ray retires without defending it.
P: French-German-Italian-Hawaiian Mrs. Jacqueline Liwai Pung, wife of a Honolulu fireman and mother of two, the U.S. Women's Amateur golf championship, two and one on the 35th hole, over Shirley McFedters, University of California at Los Angeles coed; in Portland, Ore. Roly-poly (210 lbs.. 5 ft. 3 in.) Mrs. Pung, 29, after winning was given a buss and a lei by U.S. Golf Association President Totten Heffelfinger, who asked her to bring her hula gear to next year's tournament.
P: Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt's unbeaten two-year-old colt Native Dancer, his sixth straight win, the 6 1/2 furlong. $62,650 Hopeful Stakes, with his patented stretch spurt, to leave Greentree Stable's Tiger Skin two lengths behind; in 1 min. 18 4/5 sec.; at Saratoga.
P: The Norwalk, Conn. Little League baseball team, the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa.
