PATTERSON CHALLENGER RANKED 11TH BY N.B.A.

Tom "Wild Man" McNeeley, local boy who fights Floyd Patterson for the heavyweight championship of the world Dec. 4 in Toronto, isn't even ranked in the National Boxing Association's top ten.

The NBA has reinstated Sonny Liston, the top contender, and consequently, McNeeley has moved down from no. 10 to 11.

McNeeley is a native of Arlington.
