Virtually Ignoring Valentino

a title defense for Charles be
fore yearend. And he didn't mean
the 15-rounder which may pack
20.000 fans into San Frahcisco'a
Cow palace.
Sure, Ez Is a 15 favorite. The
odds even might lengthen a hit
before the Cincinnati Negro
climbs Into the ring at 10 p.m.
tomorrow.
Mlntz said he has no specific
challenger in mind. He seemed
to consider the Valentino fight
already won.
Then, perhaps thinking sudden
ly of some $.)0.000 worth of un
sold tickets, he remarked that
Pat has a chance.
"Any challenger does." Jittery
Jack generalized. "Any time a
champion steps into the ring he's
In danger."
Mints! said Charles will give
anyone a crack at his crown
if there's enough money in it.
He hinted strongly at a Decem

Both boxers will taper off with
