NEW .YORK (AP) Ken Norton and Jimmy Young will
shoot for a chance at heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali
when they fight Nov. 5 not far from the dice, cards, slot
machines and roulette wheels at Las Vegas' gambling
palaces.
"We took the fight because it's the best fight anybody can
make in the heavyweight division, and that includes an Ali
fight," Sid Gatherid of Caesars Palace said yesterday at a
news conference to formally announce the 12-round fight.
The site a 5,000-seat sports pavilion at the hotel-casino
was ' the only thing not known before the news conference
opened.
The participants and the television arrangement for the Don
King promotion were an open secret, and it was also known
that each fighter will get at least $1 million. Neither King nor
the fighters' connections would give an exact amount.
Most insiders agreed that the No. 1-ranked Norton will get
$1.5 million plus $lOO,OOO in expenses while the second-ranked
Young will receive $1 million plus $lOO,OOO.
"I suddenly have amnesia," said King when asked the exact
purses for the promotion, which he is calling his comeback as
a major fight promoter. - ,
"I came very close to being removed friim the'scene, not
from action but from innuendos," King said of the various
charges made in connection with his United States Boxing
Championships, a tournament suspended by ABC and which
still is being investigated by a federal grand jury and the
network.
Then, in keeping with the gambling motif of a Las Vegas
fight, the former numbers banker from Cleveland noted the
bout was being announced on July 7, '77 and said, "If I was in
the numbers business that would be a triple 7."
Both Norton and Young stated that they would have fights
before meeting each other in November.
ABC annouced that the fight, which could provide Ali with
an opponent for a final "big-money" bout, will be part of a
televised tripleheader which will be shown during 2'/2 hours of
prime time.
The other fights have not been determined, a network _
spokesman said.

Rolling Rocks in Intramural softball action Wednesday night.
After a no hit, no run first inning, the NADS came out strong
in the second with three runs. Henry John drove in the first
two runs while the other score came from Tim Graham on an

The win gives the NADS a record of 4-0 while the Rolling
Rocks are 2-2. To stay in the running for first place, the Rocks
must win the remainder of their games this season.
"It was a tough defensive game. They're a good solid team
and the toughest we've faced so far," said Michael Durkot of
the NADS after the win.
