SIX NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 13, 1949 Friday Night Bill Offers Fans Array Of Real Punchers Fulfilling a promise to bring outstanding boxing talent to Roseburg fight natrons. Promo ters Ernie Nazeirod and Sandy Sanders have lined up a hard punching KO-minded bunch of ring stalwarts for the Friday, Jan. 14 fight card here at the Rcscburg Armory. Topping the list of aggressive goers are Joey Ortega, Oregon lightweight champion, and Red Garrison, Spokane slugger, who will climax the card with a 10 round main tilt. Rating almost equal billing with the main-go is the six-round semi-wlndup, featuring Billy Pap pas, who has rung up a string of Impressive victories in the Kast and Middlcwest. Pappas will square off with a newcom er to this country, Swede Hagan of Oslo, Norway. Hagan has left a trail of bruised noses in many of the capitals of the old world and appears on his way to dupli cating the feat here. Roseburg's own Bobby Nazei rod will be out for a KO in a six-round special event with Son ny Gertman as his opponent. Young Nazeirod recently fought a three-round exhibition with Skeet Starky, training wllh Billy Conn at Johnny Ray's camp in Pittsburgh. Nazeirod Spent the summer In the East, visiting with his parents and "keeping a hand in" around local training camps. Gertman is a 145-pound puncher who will not ease-up once the ptce is set. The six-round preliminary will bring Pinky Cowan and Paul "Tiger" Kennedy together. Cow an packs a lot of dynamite In his gloves, but Kennedy won't be wearing pillows on his dukes eitner. The five-event program will start at 8:30 p. m., wllh Eddie JohRn of Klamath Falls and Al Cliff, four-time winner here, ringing the curtain. Promoter Nazeirod said fans have been phoning for tlckels all hours of the day and night. A few are still left at the Monarch Cigar Store and J-V Sporting Goods store.

An understaffed Myrtle Creek team necessitated bringing several Roseburg boys together in both the fistic and mat encounters. Jim Fosback, tiny Roseburg puncher, demonstrated fine form and had his opponent, Ron Sim mons, at a disadvantage most of the time. He decisioned Sim monds after three rounds of fast action. Douglas Trip, Myrtle Creek boxer, was on the go all the time, with Archie Thomas fast on his heels, slugging and punch ing all the way. Thomas was awarded the decision in the three-round tilt. Two Roseburg lads punched In a fast go, with Dick Nuzum do- cisioning Dick Thompson. Anoth er all-Roseburg tilt brought Jim Powell and Ted Wheeler totreth- er. Wheeler put on a fine show, but Powell threw more and hard er punches, and was awarded the decision. Don Pearson lost a decision to Rayul Stroup. Unable to get inside the long-limbed Stroup's gloves, Pearson had to take a lot of solid punches with out getting a chance to throw much leather himself.

(,P) Joe Louis wants to defend his heavyweight boxing champion ship next June against the win ner of a fight between Ezzard Charles and Lee Savold. This was disclosed last night by Col. Edward Eagan, chairman of the New York State Athletic Commission, who said the Brown Bomber had assured him he will light one more time. Eagan injected the semi-official announcement of the champ ion's plans into the after-dinner informalities of the New York Boxing Writers' annual function. In his boxing report, Eagan said the gross receipts for boxing and wrestling in New York state last year amounted to 56,244.613. This figure, which takes in tele vision and movie monies, com pared with $5,691,878 in 1947. The writers gathered for the principal purpose of honoring Ike Williams, the busy light weight champion from Trenton, N. J., and Dan Morgan, 75-year-old veteran light manager. Williams received the Edward J. Neil memorial award as the man who did the most for boxing in 1948. Williams defended his title three times during the past year and fought ten times. He also received a special Ring Magazine medal as "boxer of the year." Morgan was given the James J. Walker award for long and meritorious service to the sport. C. Chapin 09 119 124 riM V.
